Let us now recount the sacred knowledge of healing as revealed in the venerable scripture, a tapestry of remedies for many afflictions. When one is troubled by weakness of digestion or disorders of the bowels, it is beneficial to take milk that has been boiled together with musta, parpaṭaka, the divine śṛṅgavera, śālaparṇī, pṛśniparṇī, bṛhatī, and kaṇṭakārikā. For those suffering from diarrhea, a diet that includes balā, aśvadanṣṭrā, bilva, pāṭhā, nāgara, and dhānyaka brings relief. Likewise, a decoction made from bilva and mango stones, sweetened with sugar, serves as a cure for diarrhea; and so does a decoction of kuṭaja bark. In cases where diarrhea is accompanied by pain and blood, a decoction of vatsaka, ativiṣā, viśvakaṇā, and kaṇḍa proves effective. When the affliction is grahaṇī, the use of clarified butter prepared with both the decoction and paste of citraka is prescribed; this not only stimulates digestion but also cures gulma, swelling, abdominal diseases, spleen disorders, pain, and hemorrhoids. To further support digestion and healing, sauvarcala, saindhava, viḍaṅga, and udbhida, combined with sāmudra, are to be used together as the five salts. For piles, three forms of treatment are known: surgery, alkaline substances, and fire; yet, freshly churned buttermilk is also praised as a remedy. To destroy piles and relieve constipation, one should partake of sour and salty preparations made from guduchi, long pepper, and abhayā fried in ghee. A mixture containing the juice of sesame is renowned for destroying piles and skin diseases, while the five kolas, black pepper, and three kinds of pungent spices stimulate the digestive fire. Harītakī, consumed alone, or taken with ginger and jaggery, or with rock salt, consistently enkindles the digestive fire. For jaundice and anemia, a decoction of phalatrika, amrita, bitter bhūnimba, and nimba, mixed with honey, is recommended. Fevers arising from blood and bile, as well as complex disorders, are removed by a sweetmeat prepared from trivṛt, triphalā, śyāmā, long pepper, sugar, and honey. When vāsā is present in the body and life persists, why should one afflicted by blood-bile, wasting, and cough suffer weakness? Relief comes from a decoction of āṭarūpa, grapes, and pathyā, mixed with sugar and abundant honey, which removes cough, breathlessness, and blood-bile disorders. The juice of vāsā, mixed with sugar and drunk, conquers blood disorders. Also, sallakī, badarī, jambu, priyāla, mango, arjuna, and dhava, when taken with milk and honey separately, stop bleeding. For those suffering from wasting, drinking ghee prepared with the juice of nirguṇḍī—using its root, fruit, and leaves—restores health and brings radiance akin to the gods. A sweetmeat made from harītakī, long pepper, dry ginger, black pepper, and jaggery destroys cough, and relieves thirst and loss of appetite. Ghee prepared from thirty palas of juice of kaṇṭakāri and gudūcī, each separately, in the amount of one prastha, is effective for cough and stimulates digestion. To destroy hiccups and breathlessness, one should take black nightshade, amla, white nightshade, dry ginger, and honey together. Drinking bhārṅga with viśvā and warm water is also beneficial. For disorders of the voice, one may hold khādira smeared with oil in the mouth, or pathyā mixed with long pepper, or combined with ginger. To address vomiting, powder of viḍaṅga and trilā, taken with honey, or a decoction of mango and jambu mixed with honey, should be consumed. Triphalā drunk with honey removes all vomiting and thirst, as well as dizziness and fainting. For epilepsy and disorders caused by spirits, drinking pañcagavya is beneficial; similarly, the juice of kūṣmāṇḍa with rice is effective. Old ghee prepared with brahmi, vacā, kuṣṭha, and śaṅkhapuṣpī is used in the treatment of madness, spirit disorders, and epilepsy. A woman seeking to pacify vāta, promote virility, and obtain sons should take a decoction of aśvagandhā, or a paste in four times the amount of milk, cooked with ghee. Powder of nīlī and muṇḍī, mixed with honey and ghee and taken with a decoction of chinnā, destroys even severe vātarakta. For the treatment of kuṣṭha, piles, and vāta disorders, the five pathyās with jaggery are remedies; their juice, paste, powder, or decoction may be used. A decoction and paste of kālāguḍūcī ends vātarakta; when cooked with ghee and milk, it soothes kuṣṭha, wounds, and similar conditions. Triphalā and guggulu together remove vātarakta and unconsciousness, and guggulu with cow’s urine destroys stiffness of the thighs. A decoction of dry ginger and gokṣura relieves pain from vāta and sāmavāta, as does a combination with daśamūla, amṛta, eraṇḍa, rāsnā, nāgara, and dāru. Swelling is cured by a decoction with marīca and jaggery; a confection of these ingredients destroys cough and thirst, and improves appetite. Juice of kaṇṭakāri and guḍūcī, thirty-two palas each, cooked with a prastha of ghee, removes cough and stimulates the heart. For heavy vāta, a decoction with kṛṣṇā, dhātrī, sugar, dry ginger, black pepper, and rock salt, mixed with castor oil, is most effective. Balā, punarnavā, eraṇḍa, both bṛhatīs, and gokṣura, with hingula for color, relieve pain from vāta when drunk. To relieve burning and pain, a decoction of triphalā, nimbā, yaṣṭī, kaṭukā, and aragvadha, mixed with honey, should be given. Water of triphalā with yaṣṭī destroys pain from indigestion, and purified maṇḍūra with triphalā powder, licked with honey and ghee, removes pain from all three doṣas. Constipation and disease are removed by pills made from trivṛt, kṛṣṇā, and harītakī, in proportions of two, four, and five, shaped to the size of jaggery. Powder of harītakī, yavakṣāra, pippalī, and trivṛt, taken with ghee, destroys udāvarta. Pills made from trivṛt, harītakī, and śyāmā, processed with snuhī milk and taken with urine, are considered the best for breaking constipation. Finally, ghee cooked with tryūṣaṇa, triphalā, dhanyā, viḍaṅga, cavyā, and citraka, all made into a paste, is a remedy for vāta-gulma. Thus, in this sacred tradition, the wise have revealed the path to health through the gifts of nature, precise preparation, and reverent application, bringing relief to the suffering and restoring balance to body and spirit.
