6.2

Enlivening, nourishing, pleasant to the heart, gladdening, awakening the intellect,
thin, of imperceptible taste, clean, cold, pure, like nectar. /

For bodily actions are bound to them.
Going the distance of two finger-breadths, one finger-breadth, half a finger-breadth, a barleycorn, and half a barleycorn, they divide like the veins of a tree leaf and become seven hundred.
Expanding throughout the channels and clear is liquor; vital essence is its opposite. /

Likewise, one should first treat that afflicted person with sudations. /

Abdominal colic, body ache, hiccup, cardiac pain, cutting pain, and discharge:
from non-application and excessive administration of an enema, these six complications each arise. /
