One Pala each of bala, guduchi, haritaki, vibhitaki, amalaki, rasnā, bilva, shyonaka, gambhari, patala, shalaparni, prishniparni, brihati, kantakari and gokshura, eight fruits of madana and half tula of goat meat should be added with water, and boiled till one fourth of water remains. Then the decoction should be collected by filtration.  To this decoction, one pichu (tola) each of the paste of yavani, madana phala, bilva, kushtha, vacha, shatahva, ghana and pippali, one pala of jaggery, two prasruta each of ghee and oil, and appropriate quantities of honey and rock salt should be added. The recipe should then be stirred with a stirrer, and kept inside the basti. The bladder should then be tied to the base of the nozzle, the air inside the bladder should be removed, and the bladder should be free from folds. Thereafter, varti (cotton plug) kept at the opening should be removed, and the opening should be covered with the middle part of the thumb.
