→Mode of action of basti
None other than ''vata'' is responsible for all diseases origination in ''shakha'' (peripheral tissues), ''koshtha'' (visceral organs), ''marma'' (vital points of the body), ''urdhva'' (upper part of body), ''sarvavaya'' (covering entire body) and ''anga'' (individual parts of the body). ''Vata'' is responsible for separation and combination of stool, urine, ''pitta'' etc. including other excreta and tissue elements. When it gets highly aggravated there is no remedy other than ''basti'' for its alleviation. Therefore, ''basti'' is considered by physicians to be the half of entire therapeutics. Some physicians even consider it as whole of the therapeutics. [38-39½]
