सन्धुक्षति तथा वह्निरेषां विधिवदिन्धनैः। स्नेहमेव परं विद्याद्दुर्बलानलदीपनम्॥२०१॥
Proper management as mentioned in earlier verses stimulates the agni (digestive power). Sneha is the best among the deepana dravya which helps in stimulating the inefficient agni
english translation
नालं स्नेहसमिद्धस्य शमायान्नं सुगुर्वपि। मन्दाग्निरविपक्वं तु पुरीषं योऽतिसार्यते॥२०२॥
If the patient has inefficient digestive power and voids undigested food in excess in stools or frequency of motions is more, then appropriate quantity of ghrita fortified by deepana medicines should again be given.
english translation
दीपनीयौषधैर्युक्तां घृतमात्रां पिबेत्तु सः। तया समानः पवनः प्रसन्नो [४२] मार्गमास्थितः॥२०३॥
Thus, samana vata is regularized and moves in its normal tract. As samana vata is associated with agni it instantaneously promotes the strength of agni.
english translation
अग्नेः समीपचारित्वादाशु प्रकुरुते बलम्। काठिन्याद्यः पुरीषं तु कृच्छ्रान्मुञ्चति मानवः॥२०४॥
Digestive power thus stimulated by ghrita cannot be suppressed even by heavy meals If patient finds difficulty in evacuation of stools due to hardness in stools then salt mixed ghrita should be administered in between the food.
english translation
सघृतं लवणैर्युक्तं नरोऽन्नावग्रहं पिबेत्। रौक्ष्यान्मन्दे पिबेत्सर्पिस्तैलं वा दीपनैर्युतम्॥२०५॥
If agni is suppressed due to ruksha guna then either ghrita or taila fortified with deepaniya drugs should be administered
