=== Importance of site of affliction in treatment ===

The specificity of treatment depends on the site of affliction and the associated morbid tissues. For example masthishkya is very specific for ardita, ~~pakṣāghāta~~, ~~indriyagatavāta~~ etc. Even though vamana is ~~kaphahara~~, it is exclusively indicated in āmashayagata vāta taking into account of site of affliction. (verse 104)

(verse 104)

Brimhana treatment of vata vitiation: The treatment of exclusive ~~vāta~~ vitiation (without involvement of other dosha) is brimhana. If associated dosha is present, they shall be treated first. (verse 105)

[[Brimhana]] treatment of [[vata]] vitiation: The treatment of exclusive [[vata]] vitiation (without involvement of other [[dosha]]) is [[brimhana]]. If associated [[dosha]] is present, they shall be treated first. (verse 105)

~~Balā~~ is excellent for lone vitiated ~~vāta~~. The head of goat is indicated on the basis of the principle ~~‘sāmānyam vridhikārānam’~~(like increases like). These also explain the awareness of utilization of brain of goat in degenerative brain lesions. Lavana relieves stambha (stiffness) and samghata (conglomeration). ~~Upanāha~~ is also prepared with such well fomented flesh and added with different oils, salts etc. Such upanāha are brimhana. (verse 106-108)

Bala is excellent for lone vitiated [[vata]]. The head of goat is indicated on the basis of the principle ‘samanyam vridhikaranam’(like increases like). These also explain the awareness of utilization of brain of goat in degenerative brain lesions. Lavana relieves stambha (stiffness) and samghata (conglomeration). Upanaha is also prepared with such well fomented flesh and added with different oils, salts etc. Such upanāha are brimhana. (verse 106-108)

Avagaha (immersion) sweda:

Avagāha is typically indicated in ~~apāna vāigunya~~ (defects due to apana vata vitiation), it is a type of drava sweda (liquid fomentation). Nādisweda is also an excellent option for all types of vātarōga. Poultices (upanāha) of different types provide self generated heat to cause swedana. It is by virtue of various dhanya (cereals) and kinwa (yeast) available in it. (verse 109-118)

Avagāha is typically indicated in apana vaigunya (defects due to apana [[vata]] vitiation), it is a type of drava sweda (liquid fomentation). Nādisweda is also an excellent option for all types of vātarōga. Poultices (upanāha) of different types provide self generated heat to cause swedana. It is by virtue of various dhanya (cereals) and kinwa (yeast) available in it. (verse 109-118)

Different formulations:

Different medicated ghrita,taila, ~~vasā~~, ~~majjā~~ and ~~mahā snēha~~ ( combination of all four sneha) are indicated for various conditions in the form of oral ingestion, inhalation, enema and external application etc. ~~Mahā snēha~~ is guru (heavy to digest) and ultimately indicated in disorders like convulsions, tremor etc. (verse 119-136)

Different medicated ghrita,taila, vasa, majja and maha sneha ( combination of all four sneha) are indicated for various conditions in the form of oral ingestion, inhalation, enema and external application etc. Maha sneha is guru (heavy to digest) and ultimately indicated in disorders like convulsions, tremor etc. (verse 119-136)

Pinyaka taila is a preparation in which ~~rūkṣa~~ guna is imparted to taila and is highly useful in kapha associated ~~Vātavyādhi~~. (verse 136-137)

Pinyaka taila is a preparation in which ruksha [[guna]] is imparted to taila and is highly useful in [[kapha]] associated [[Vata]]vyadhi. (verse 136-137)

Importance of oil in treatment of vata: By virtue of ~~vyavāyi~~ guna (pervading/diffusive), it reaches the different interior parts of the body without any metabolic changes. By processing taila can adopt any type of qualitative changes. The drugs are potentiated by repeated processing in its own media. Drugs like ksheerbalā (101 āvartita), dhanwatharam (21 āvartita) etc. are worth mentioning here. This approach of samskāra makes snēha as sukshma snēha (with better bio-availability and penetration) .(verse 181-182)
