Trivang Bhasma (Method 1)

PREPARATION

Shudh (purified) Naag, Shudh Vang and Shudh Jasad in equal proportions are cooked in an iron vesel on a low flame. Small amounts of Vijaya churn (herbal powder) and Ahifen powder is constantly added to the mixture and stirred with an iron rod. The process is repeated till all the three metals attain a powder(ash) form. The vessel is now covered with a lid and exposed to high flame for 12- 14 hours. When the mixture attains dark red colour , the vessel is removed from the flame and allowed to cool. On cooling the mixture is filtered through a muslin cloth and blended with Kumari Swaras to form a cake. The cake on drying is given 7 Laghuput (refer glossary) to obtain yellow-coloured Trivang Bhasma.
