When the physician is assured of successful administration of oleation and fomentation therapies and on ensuring that the patient’s mind is normal, that he has slept well, the food taken by him is well-digested, has taken full bath, his body well anointed, that he has worn a garland and untorn clean clothes, and that he has offered worship to the God, fire, Brahmin, mentors, elderly persons and the physician, Brahmins should be requested to recite auspicious chants and bestow their blessings on the patient on an auspicious day with favorable nakshatra (constellation), date, karana and muhurta (these terms are of astrological importance). Thereafter, the physician should administer a dose of the decoction of the fruit of madanaphala (Randia dumenorum Lam.) along with honey, rock-salt, phanita (a preparation of sugar cane juice) and the powder of madhuka (Glycyrrhiza glabra Linn.).
