Eight specified instances have been prescribed for habitual smoking, because during these periods, the rise of vata and kapha is noticed. The self controlled man should resort to smoking after taking bath, after scraping the tongue, after sneezing, after brushing the teeth, after nasya, after the use of eye-salve/collyrium and at the end of sleep. Thereby, vata and kapha borne diseases affecting the body parts above the clavicle do not afflict him. In these conditions, smoking should be done thrice, in three puffs each time. A wise man should practice habitual smoking twice a day only, the unctuous smoking once a day and the purgative smoking thrice or four times a day. [33-36]

Untimely or excessive smoking causes complications: deafness, blindness, dumbness, raktapitta (heamorrhagic disorder – bleeding from nose), and giddiness. In such conditions intake of ghee is desirable. In the event of complications arising due to vata following pitta, one shall apply nasal drops, collyrium and tarpana (keeping medicated ghee in the eye) prepared using unctuous articles. In the case of raktapitta these shall be prepared with cooling drugs and in the case of complications arising out of an aggravated kapha they shall be prepared with ruksha drugs (causing dryness).[38-40]
