He is the creator, the sustainer, the omnipresent Viṣṇu, the destroyer, death, the end-maker. And with these two groups and purgative substances, one should prepare clarified butter for drinking, as well as non-unctuous and unctuous enemas; and honey-śigru in drinks, food, and external pastes; or one should use śilājatu according to the prescribed rules, or guggulu; and according to the doṣa, one should manage it in all respects like a gulma. An actual object near at hand he sees with difficulty, and he does not see a subtle object at a distance. - [Previous: 15.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.samhita.astangasamgraha~en-mt.15.2) - [Next: 15.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.samhita.astangasamgraha~en-mt.15.4) - [Up: 15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.samhita.astangasamgraha~en-mt.15) ## Linked texts (1) - [Aṣṭāṅgasaṃgraha](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.samhita.astangasamgraha.15.3) — Vāgbhaṭa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.samhita.astangasamgraha~en-mt.15.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.samhita.astangasamgraha~en-mt.15.3) · Pramāṇa
