Guest guest Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 Dear Friends, Does anybody have the knowledge of preparing the mercury bhasam. I am trying to prepare it and need ur help. There are two stages of bhasm :- First is Sthaaitva (Stable) and second one is subliming mercury. This is the perfect bhasm of mercury. Kindly help me in this matter, thanks, --N C Jain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Dear N C Jain, Preaparation of mercury bhasma is no easy job. There are a total of 18 and minimum 8 procedures which have to be undertaken to produce mercury bhasma. You could contact any ayurvedic college near you (if you are a vaidya then you surely must have done the practicals in your college). I am not too sure about good books on the subject but you could refer to the following book listed on mlbd.com Rasendra Sara Sangraha of Sri Gopal Krishna : Text with English Translation,Notes & Appendixes Dr.Ashok D.Satpute.2003 xiii,714p,gloss,index HardBound ISBN 8121801222 Cybervaidya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 I am confused over this.....mercury is highly poisonous, why would anyone wish to ingest it?? We are getting sick from eating fish who are loaded with mercury, from pollution, toxic waste dumping into our rivers, streams and oceans.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Before we look for the exotic stuff in Ayurveda, it is more important to understand and follow the regular and normal diet, exercise and foods required by your doshas, etc......... One should spend more time getting to know the Herbs, before getting involved with the exotic bhasmas. Even with the Herbs, I like what Todd said in the last e-mail about trying the Herbs personally for a while, and recording all the signs accurately, etc............it is obviously a tedious and time consuming process, but the exercise is worth it.
