Dear Raja,

Cinnabar is known as HINGUL in sanskrit Rasa-shastra texts and is used to procure Mercury. Purified Cinnabar (as per Rasa-shastra texts) is used in the preparation of a well-known Ayurvedic medicine known by the name as TRIBHUVANKIRTI which is indicated in fevers.

you may get it in ayurvedic stores or ayurvedic wholesale traders.

you can buy books on RASA SHASTRAS. You will get plenty.IT was called the Red Lion by in the Hermatic Science.And is an essential element in Siddha Rasa or the philosophers stone. By special procedures it is first detoxified ie made pure. either by grinding it with ginger or lemon juice, then made non-evaporating, then made potent or momiya.this is the water of the sages or the philosophers stone. sometimes it is calcined as a white powder, desired by alchemists all over the world.
