Bala, vidari, hrasva panchamula'' (''shalaparni, prsniparni, brihati, kantakari'' and ''gokshura''), ''punarnava'', and the ''sungas'' (terminal buds) of five ''kshirivrikshas'' (''nyagrodha, udumbara, asvattha, madhuka'' and ''plaksha'')- one ''pala'' of each of these drugs should be made to a decoction. To this, milk (two parts, i.e., double the quantity of the decoction), juice of ''vidari'' (one part), soup of goat meat (one part), ghee (two ''adhakas'') (in the text, actually one ''adhaka'' is mentioned. But in practice, it is to be taken double the quantity according to the general rule), and the paste of drugs belonging to the ''jivaniya'' group (one ''aksa'' each) should be added and cooked. When it is well cooked and cooled, thirty two ''palas'' of sugar should be added. Thereafter, one ''kudava'' of each of the powder of ''godhuma, pippali, vamsha lochana, shringataka'' and honey should be added. All of them should be stirred with the help of a stirrer. When it becomes dense, cakes (''sarpigud'') should be prepared and each of them should be wrapped with thin bark of ''bhurja'' tree. Having taken this cake one ''pala'' in weight, the patient should take milk or alcohol as post-prandial drink. These are useful in the treatment of disease caused by ''kapha, sosha, kasa'' and ''kshatakshina''. These are also helpful for persons who are emaciated because of excessive exertion, overindulgence in sex and exhaustion by lifting excessive weight. These cakes are efficacious in the treatment of ''rakta-nishthivana'' (hemoptysis), burning sensation, chronic rhinitis (''pinasa''), having residual infection in the chest, pain in the sides of the chest, headache, hoarseness of voice and loss of complexion.
