There is debate in ayurveda community on action of basti i.e. whether basti have local action or systemic action. The example coated by acharya Charaka: ‘as sun located high in the sky dries up moisture of earth, in the same fashion basti situated in the pakvashaya due to its potency draws the doshas present in the entire body’ similarly, basti acts locally as well as systemically. To exert systemic effect the active ingredients of basti need to be absorbed. In general osmosis, pH difference, active absorption, facilitated diffusion, electrochemical gradient, micelles facilitated transportation etc. are the methods of intestinal absorption. Hence composition of basti need to be compounded in such a way so that the active ingredients of basti are absorbed by following any one of the principles as explained earlier. Further basti dravya also need to address intestinal motility related issues.

When we analyse the method of niruha basti preparation i.e kashaya, kalka, sneha, saindhavalavana etc. clearly indicates that basti kalpana is made very carefully to maintain desired pH, osmotic pressure, micelle formation etc.

The management given aims at soothening and softening the bowels and to also promote healing. Milk, sugarcane juice helps in countering dryness of the large intestine due to their snigdha guna. Diet rich in mrudu guna and amla rasa further helps in keeping softness of the bowel intact as well as maintaining normal actin of vata. [54-57]

Basti dominating with amla lavana rasa and ushna tikshna properties in a patient suffering from disease of pitta dosha leads to further vitiation of pitta, this in turn vitiates rakta which is seat of pitta dosha, starts coming out through anus. The best remedy for this is piccha basti which has medicines acting for stopping the blood flow and also promotes healing. [58-62]
