Method Take all ingredients of pharmacopoeial quality.  Treat Tila taila to prepare murcchita Tila taila (Appendix 6.2.9.4).  Wash; clean; dry the Amalaka; powder separately and pass through 355 nm I. S. sieve (sieve number 44).  To this add eight times water and reduce to one fourth of its total volume by heating on moderate flame.  Filter while hot through muslin cloth to obtain Amalaka rasa and keep aside.  Strain the Godugdha through muslin cloth.  Wash; clean; dry the ingredient number 1 of the formulation composition; powder it and pass through 180 nm I. S. sieve (sieve number 85) to obtain fine powder (kalka dravya).  Transfer the powdered ingredient to wet grinder and grind with sufficient quantity of water to prepare homogeneous blend (kalka).  Take murcchita Tila taila in a stainless steel vessel and heat it.  Add increments of kalka; stir thoroughly while adding the Amalaka rasa and Godugdha.  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.  Continue the process of heating intermittently over a period of three days. Constantly check the kalka by rolling between the fingers.  Stop the heating when the kalka easily rolls into a varti without sticking (madhyama paka laksana) to the fingers and at the appearance of froth (phenodgama) over the oil. Expose the varti 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.
