S. sieve (sieve number 44) (kvatha dravya).  Add water for decoction to the kvatha dravya and soak for 4 h; heat and reduce the volume to one-fourth. Filter through muslin cloth to obtain kvatha.  Wash; clean; dry the ingredients numbered 7 to 9 and 11 to 18 of the formulation composition; powder separately and pass through 180 nm I. S. sieve. Roast coarsely powdered Saindhava Lavana in a stainless steel pan on low flame till free from moisture; powder separately and pass through 180 nm I. S. sieve (sieve number 85) (kalka dravya).  Transfer the kalka dravya to the wet grinder and grind with sufficient quantity of water to prepare homogeneous blend (kalka).  Strain the Godugdha through muslin cloth.  Take murcchita Tila Taila in a stainless steel vessel and heat it.  Add increments of kalka; stir thoroughly while adding kvatha.  Heat for 3 h with constant stirring maintaining the temperature between 500 and 900 during the first hour of heating. Stop heating and allow to stand overnight.  Next day; add Godadhi; Kanjika and Godugdha and continue the process of heating intermittently over a period of five days. Constantly check the kalka by rolling between the fingers.  Stop the heating when the kalka breaks down into pieces on attempting to form a varti (khara paka laksana) and at the appearance of froth (phenodgama) over the oil. Expose the kalka and oil to flame and confirm the absence of crackling sound indicating absence of moisture.  Filter while hot (about 800) through a muslin cloth and allow to cool.  Store it in glass containers and pack them air-tight to protect from light and moisture.
