If a man is bitten by a snake, the man who goes to the Vi峁vaidya to speak to him about it and bring him if necessary is called '诲奴迟补'. From the external signs and symbols of the 诲奴迟补 and from words spoken by him the vi峁vaidya understands whether the person bitten by the snake would die or survive. These signs and words of the '诲奴迟补' are called lak峁峁嘺s. The following are some of the important 诲奴迟补濒补办峁峁嘺蝉.
The caste of the person bitten by the snake and the caste of the 诲奴迟补.
The first word uttered by the 诲奴迟补. If it is the name of the patient, it has a special significance.
If the 诲奴迟补 makes an incomplete sentence, it is a significant lak峁峁嘺.
The things carried by the 诲奴迟补 such as stick, rope, knife.
The colour of the clothes worn by the 诲奴迟补.
The tone in which the 诲奴迟补 speaks. These are the lak峁峁嘺s from which the doctor knows whether the patient can be cured. (Bhavi峁a Pur膩峁嘺, Brahma Parva, Chapter 35, Verses 19, 20).

Features of an informer which bring about good prognosis and the vice-versa are detailed. Twelve 苍补办峁迟谤补蝉 (asterisms) which are inauspicious in poisoning cases are explained on the basis of lunar calculations. The text gives a description of detection of the type of snake to be deduced form the position of the informer in the physician鈥檚 room. If the 诲奴迟补 (informer) utters the snake鈥檚 name first, then the death of the patient is almost inevitable. Prognosis was also assessed by counting the words uttered by the informer. The place where the snake bite happened and the sex of snake can also be deduced from informer. The part of body bitten and intensity also can be deduced from the informer鈥檚 and physician鈥檚 positions.
