Composition Or Preparation Method
Method: Take 8 tolas (93 grams) each of purified Mercury, purified Sulfur, purified Mansil, and purified Silver. First, heat Ghee in a pan and mix in the Mercury. Then, add Sulfur and make a kajjali (black mixture). After that, add Mansil and grind the mixture for 6 hours, giving it the essence of Aloe Vera juice. Once dry, place the mixture in a container and apply heat for 2.5 days using a sand bath (Valuka Yantra). After cooling, you will obtain a bright red substance similar to a ruby.

Note: Many classical texts mention the addition of Hartal (Arsenic Sulfide) to this formulation. However, we prepare it without using Hartal. The remaining substance after the process can be given additional heat treatment to produce excellent Nag Bhasma (Ash of Lead).
Dosage
Dosage: Administer 1 ratti (125 mg) with butter and sugar, honey, or Betel leaf, or as per the patient’s condition.

Additionally, it alleviates diseases such as fatigue, asthma, and general weakness. It rejuvenates the body, restores energy, and even combats severe conditions like Rajayakshma (chronic respiratory diseases).
For patients suffering from persistent dry coughs, where phlegm is difficult to expel and the condition worsens at night, this remedy provides significant relief. It helps in quickly clearing phlegm, alleviating symptoms of chest infections like fluid accumulation in the lungs, and reducing fever in tuberculosis cases.
In conditions where excessive bile production leads to symptoms like nausea, vomiting, loose stools, mouth ulcers, and fever, this formulation helps balance these symptoms. It also addresses issues related to decreased urine output, frequent but scanty urination, and weakened bodily functions in elderly individuals.
Manikya Rasa stimulates the urinary tract and relieves blockages, improving the health of the urinary system. It is a tonic that is particularly beneficial for the elderly and those with weakened vitality, as it strengthens the body, improves digestion, and helps balance Vata and Kapha doshas. Its rejuvenating effects extend to the lungs, stomach, respiratory system, and urinary tract.
