Generic Advancements in Basti
Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2019, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
In all Ayurvedic texts, the significance of Basti is highlighted as much as to call it half of the treatment or even complete treatment by some Acharyas. Among all the therapeutic procedures, Basti is superior, because it has the ability to produce multidimensional therapeutic effects according to the drug used. There is no therapy equivalent to Basti because it pervades all the three Rogmargas. Many Panchakarma therapies are limited to either Koshtha or externally on joints but Basti alone is the one which spreads to all the channels thus making itself the best therapy. As there has been difficulty in procuring the classical instruments for Basti and as the Bala (Strength) of patients over the period of time has reduced, it has become the need of hour to probe deeper into the subject, so as to revive the ancient techniques on a new platform and understand old principles in a new expressive way.
