RATIONALITY BEHIND THE KALPANA GHATA (GHRITA LIPTA) – Circular movement of heat Inert in nature, heat resistant and economicalNote – Stainless steel or loha patra can also be used.SILK CLOTH – High tensile strength thus heat resistant 4 folded – to avoid leakage VALUKA YANTRA/ LAVANA YANTRA- Maintain the indirect, sustained and uniform heat Prevent burning of sulphur

19

SULPHUR BATH – Using other liquid media - temp 90c-100c For pottali kalpana more temp. is requiredSulphur bath – maintain temp upto 250cImpure sulphur – higher M.P,less sensitive to fire contain allotropes, elasticMRIDU AGNI – Heat can be maintained for longer durationNo excess loss due to evaporationNo risk of spillage or frothing during the prep.POTTALI SHAPE- Reduce surface area ie theory of condensationSHUDHA GANDHAKA INSIDE – To keep parada intact inside pottali

RASA, Sharma Ved Bhushan et al, Int. J. Ayur. Pharma Research, 2015;3(3):37-43

• Hemgarbha pottali rasa is a medicine which is known as emergency medicine of Ras shastra because of its efficacy and its quick effect in condition like Sannipataj awastha.

• Combination of Shudha parada, Shudha gandhaka, Shudha tamra bhasma and Shudha swarna.

26

• There are mainly four methods of Pottali preparation found in texts like Bhavana method, Putpaka method, Varatikapurana method and Gandhakadrav method

• In the present article various methods of preparation of Hemgarbh pottali rasa has been described and most common method of preparation which is molten sulphur method is discussed in detail

• Hemgarbh Pottali Rasa could be proved as an alternative medicine in place of modern antibiotics as this medicine is also effective against multi drug resistant (MDR) bacterial strains.

Indicated in Coma, unconciousness and removes the throat obstruction due to kapha during death

CONCLUSION – Method of administration helps in quick absorption through

tongue. It also escape first pass metabolism

28

DISCUSSION

• Easy administration of drug • Life saving remedy • Helps to tackle the acute condition • Long shelf life • Easy to handle • Occult preparation method

29

• Because of its sustained heat pattern and media used for its paka – an unique preparation

• It is a sagni sagandha murchana of parada along with other dhatus

• Mridu agni should be maintained to prevent charring of gandhaka

• Assessing paka lakshana is an important part of kalpana

• Wide range of therapeutic utility

30

CONCLUSION

• Technique to give compactness to the scattered materials

• Easy process • Parada – yogavahi – thus quick in action• Less dose, more potent due to agni samskara

and gandhaka jarana process• Can be used in chronic as well as acute condition • Scarcity of research data
