=== Reason for failure of ''basti'' to cure curable diseases and importance of dose in cleansing therapies  ===

Acharya has attracted the attention to an important concept of ''avarana'' i.e. occlusion of one ''dosha'' by other causing its vitiation. In such instances treatment of the ''dosha'' or ''dhatu'' that is the reason for occlusion must be treated first then the one which is occluded (Ch.Chi.28/239). Otherwise the symptoms get aggravated as occlusion is potentiated.

Similarly, though one cannot measure the exact quantity of ''dosha'', still on basis of symptoms, ''koshtha, agni'' etc. one need to decide the dose of drug to be given for cleansing. If dose calculation or the treatment is administered is wrong, then even if the drug is proper then also results may be adverse.(verse 57-60)
