Otherwise, without fuel, it would sink; or, due to extreme flare-up, / it would also cook his bodily tissues; then, from their depletion, the wind [increases]. // For that reason, vāyu, vitiated and taking hold of pitta and śleṣman, stands compressing the embryo's rasa-bearing vessel. // Then, when that vessel is covered over by the doṣas, like a water-channel by grass and leaves, because the rasa is not carried properly, the embryo, failing to attain growth, either subsides or withers away. // With the seeds of aśoka, kṣavaka, vermifuge, añjana, and padmaka, // combined with ghee and honey, the evacuating enema is wholesome for vātarakta, erysipelas, and voice loss. // One should cook ghee mixed with vacā, aśvagandhā, and surasā.
