Preparation of Vaikrant Sattva and its Physico-Chemical Analysis
Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Rasa Shastra is the science having the twin aim of attaining Deha siddhi and Loha siddhi, but in the due course of time, this science has become more oriented towards deha siddhi and for the therapeutic purpose. Vagbhat in his comprehensive compilation Rasa Ratna Sammuchhay has accredited second place to Vaikrant amongst the eight rasas. Amongst various types of vaikrant, Krishna vaikrant is used for deha siddhi. Even though the sattva bears more potency than bhasma, the actual usage of sattva in clinical practice is rare. This arouses a dire need to study the preparatory methods of sattva and its physico chemical analysis along with its merits and demerits
