However, these marmas have to be protected especially from anila (vata), as vata is the prime factor or cause for the aggravation of pitta and kapha and also it is the cause of prana (life) and is best palliable by basti. Hence, there is no treatment better than basti to maintain the marma. Hereby, the six asthapana skandhas (decoction enemas) and also the two anuvasana skandhas described in vimanasthana, as well as the bastis described in Siddhisthana with the treatment of vatavyadhi chikitsa may be rationally employed in the protection and restoration of the maha marmas (three great marmas).(7)

 

However, these ''marmas'' have to be protected especially from ''anila'' (''vata''), as ''vata'' is the prime factor or cause for the aggravation of ''pitta'' and ''kapha'' and also it is the cause of ''prana'' (life) and is best palliable by ''basti''. Hence, there is no treatment better than ''basti'' to maintain the ''marma''. Hereby, the six ''asthapana skandhas'' (decoction enemas) and also the two ''anuvasana skandhas'' described in [[Vimana Sthana]], as well as the ''bastis'' described in [[Siddhi Sthana]] with the treatment of ''vatavyadhi chikitsa'' may be rationally employed in the protection and restoration of the ''maha marmas'' (three great ''marmas'').[7]
