=== Indications of ''Sneha Virechana and Ruksha Virechana'' ===
   −
Following the principle, ''vridhisamane sarvesham vipareetai viparyata'' (A.H.Su.1/14) if an excessively oleated person is administered a drug which is unctuous in nature, it will not work, rather when medicine of opposite guna like ''ruksha'' is used for ''shodhana'', the appropriate action will happen. Chakrapani says ''sneha virechana'' means ''snigdha virechana'', that is ''virechana''  with ''snigdha'' (unctuous) ''dravya''. If ''sneha virechana'' is given to an ''atisnigdha shareera'', because of ''sneha prakarsha'' (excess ''sneha'') the vitiated ''doshas'' already in a the morbid state cannot be removed. These vitiated ''doshas'' that has already moved from their site will clog the ''srotas''. Hence to remove this vitiated ''dosha ununctuous/ruksha'' kind of ''shodhana'' need to be performed. (Verse 9)
