Siththars have said that there are eight types of malignancies and seven types of sattai (dust) in the mercury.
“உண்டீனங் கெளடில்யம் ஓதும நவர்த்தம்
undeenang koudilyam oathuma navarththam
சண்டத்வம் பங்கோடு சங்காரம் - விண்ட
sandathvam pangoadu sangaaram - vinda
பளுசாற்ச மலத்வம் பன்னுசவி ஷத்வம்
palusaarsa malathvam pannusavi shathvam
விளுமெண் ரசதோடம் வேறு
vilumen rasathoadam vaeru.”
In the above script, it has been said that undeenam, koudilyam, anavarththam, sangaaram, sandathvam, panguthvam, samalathvam, sabishthavam are the eight types of malignance.
