| + | It has been stated that patients suitable for ''asthapana basti'' are suitable for ''anuvasana basti'' is general instruction, because ''krimikoshthi'' and patient suffering from heaviness in the body are suitable for ''asthapana basti'' but not for ''anuvasana basti''. In ''krimikoshthi'', first of all ''asthapana basti'' is administered, then ''vamana'' and ''virechana'' to purify the ''koshtha''.
