A person with a dry body and strongly aggravated doshas is given two, three or more anuvasana enemas; when the body has become unctuous, niruha is given by the rule after weighing the strength. For one whose body is impure with strong wastes and afflicted by strong vata, anuvasana is to be given always, by night and by day, to pacify the doshas.
