तर्पणं पुटपाकं च नस्यानर्हे न योजयेत्। यावन्त्यहानि युञ्जीत द्विस्ततो हितभाग्भवेत्॥२१॥ मालतीमल्लिकापुष्पैर्बद्धाक्षो निवसेन्निशाम्॥२१-५॥

Both Tarpana and Putapaka therapies should not be administered to those who are unfit for Nasya. The patient who has undergone Tarpana and Putapaka therapies should adhere to healthy foods and activities for double the number of days of Nasya therapy. During nights he should bind the eyes with a pad of flowers like Malati, Mallika (Jasmine varieties).
