Charaka has explained schedule, importance and symptoms of proper and improper ''basti'' administration, indications- contraindications, elaborated ''basti'' procedure and ''niruha basti'' formulations in earlier three chapters. Thus, in this sequence acharya has described fourth chapter to put forward some ''sneha basti'' formulations. Purpose of [[Siddhi Sthana]] is to give excellence in therapeutics thus the complications arising due to some improper methods need to be tackled. Vitiated ''dosha,'' fecal matter, indigestion are some factors that occlude the ''basti'' and empty stomach administration leads to improper movement of fats. Moreover, due to busy work schedule, improper dietary habits and debilitating disorders most of the patients are unsuitable for ''anuvasana'' or ''sneha basti''. In such individuals if ''vata'' vitiation is evident and needs ''basti'' therapy, then use of ''sneha basti'' (unctuous enema) in lowest dose i.e. ''matra basti'' can be employed without any complications.
