Vedic Reference
EnglishHṛd-yota^1 (for Hṛd-dyota) and Hṛd-roga, ^2 ‘heart disease, ’
are mentioned in the Atharvaveda and the Rigveda respec-
tively. Zimmer^3 identifies the disease in the Atharvaveda with
Hṛdayāmaya, ‘consumption caused by love.’ In the Rigveda
this is not at all likely: later in the medical Saṃhitās the word
probably denotes angina pectoris.^4
