The Compendium of Bheḷa 6.18

He who is of vāta constitution by nature and indulges in dry foods, / and continually takes astringent, pungent, and bitter tastes,

jujubes, kapittha fruits, karīra, and likuca, / pārāvata, bhavya, and whatever other such fruit,

fermented liquors, dried meat, oil-cake, and kodrava grain, / channel-blocking things, pungent food, and reed sprouts;

and by suppression of flatus, urine, feces, and of sexual intercourse— / through these and other heavy causes the wind, provoked,

seizes the anal aperture, pervading the whole body; / situated there, causing drying, it severely desiccates the body.

The downward-flowing channels and those carrying pitta and kapha, / carrying urine, food, and waste, the wind severely obstructs.

Those [doshas], corrupted by vāta and coursing upward, / situated in the seats of the stomach and intestines, cause terrible madness.

For apāna, having moved upward and joined with udāna, / is called upward wind, resembling weapon-poison and snake-poison.

Then there are severe colic pains, burning, fainting, discoloration, / and the base of the bladder swells, and there is retention of urine and feces,

in the bladder, in the lower abdomen, at the heart, the flanks, and abdomen, / and afflicted around the navel, unconscious, he trembles repeatedly,

he sighs, faints, thirsts, and also hiccups; / [these are] the complications in upward wind; hear their treatment:

Anointing him thoroughly unctuously with oil and salt, / one should then sweat him with mixed fomentation, bed fomentation, or in a tub.

Then, having anointed his anus, one should administer a non-unctuous enema; / the physician having given one or two, or as many as he considers adequate,

and knowing him to have been well-evacuated by enema, sprinkled with comfortably warm water, / with hot water as an after-drink, he should feed him soft boiled rice

with a leafy vegetable dish of snuhī, or with a vegetable dish of trivṛt, / or eat with a soup of the two, or whatever other supreme purgative;

one should continually manage him with foods that loosen the feces; / for thus the wind will not dry out his stool again. / […] / Nineteenth chapter. / […]
