Rasashastra evam Bhaishajyakalpana

About the Department

Rasashastra is a specialized branch of Ayurveda that deals with the preparation and use of minerals, metals, and gemstones for therapeutic purposes. It combines traditional alchemy with pharmaceutical science to create potent and safe formulations. Key aspects include:

  • Purification (Shodhana): Processes to detoxify and purify raw materials like mercury, sulfur, and metals.

  • Incineration (Marana): Converting metals and minerals into bioavailable forms like bhasmas (ashes) and pishti (powders).

  • Formulation (Bhaishajyakalpana): The art of preparing medicines in various forms such as tablets (vati), powders (churna), decoctions (kwath), and medicated oils (taila).
    This subject ensures the safe and effective use of potent substances in Ayurvedic treatments.
