==== Procedure of ''virechana'' ====

Samyak is the word used to indicate appropriate/ optimum action in many contexts. Any kriyakrama is performed for its appropriate outcome as desired by the physician. The shloka here reveals the four important limbs of it, which are equally important. The first being the proper preparation of the patient in the form of sneha sweda, the second being the physiological status of the patient with respect to aahraa, only then can the agni do its duty. So the medicine has to be given after the ahaara is digested. The third being the importance of maatra which is previously well explained in Charaka vimaanasthaana trividhakuksheeyam adhyaayam. There Acharya lays importance to the appropriate maatra of aahaara. Here Acharya, gives importance to the appropriate maatra of oushadha. Only the desired dosage is acted upon by agni to create the optimum response in the body. Fourthly, the relevance of focused mind is explained. Chakrapaani says the patient must concentrate only on the action of shodhana, the presence of negative emotions like lust, anger, jealousy will only have negative effect on the outcome.(Verse 10)
