[Equipments and arrangements for purification therapy] Until then, we will briefly describe various pre-requisites recommended for administering purification therapies. First of all, an architect should search for a spacious building that is well-built, with good ventilation, comfortable moving space, located at a distance from other big buildings, free from harmful smoke, excessive light, dust, moisture, undesirable noise, scenes, touch, taste and smell. It should consist of basic amenities such as access to water, sanitation (lavatory and bathroom) and a kitchen with mortar-pestle.
