THE ROLE OF BASTI IN AGNIDEEPANA.

View through CrossRef
Ayurveda, being the science of life, believes that for the ‘Swastha’ state of the individual, Dosha, Dhatu, Mala and Agni should be in ‘Sama’ Avastha along with harmony in Indriyas, Atma and Mana. Agni is considered the most crucial entity in our body as it is the origin of our lives and maintaining health. Any abnormality in Agni may cause a diseased condition, which in turn may be responsible for the death of an individual. To perform chikitsa of any vyadhi, Vaidya should initiate with correction of Agni. There are many ways Agni Deepana is explained in Ayurvedic classical texts, and Panchakarma is one of them. Basti karma, in particular,is praised as the Best and Ardha Chikitsa. Basti karma plays an essential role in Agnideepana by acting on multiple factors affecting Agni. Also, some specific basti formulations are explained in samhitas for Agni Deepana. This study is an effort to understand the least considered Agni Deepana karma among all karmas of Basti, highlighting the urgency of maintaining balance in Agni.
