sanskrit

[Administration of Madanaphala] Of all the emetic drugs, Madana fruits are regarded as the best ones because they are free from complications. These should be collected during the period of transition between spring and summer in Pusya, Aswini or Mrigasiras constellation and Maitra Muhurta. Those which are ripe, undamaged, non-green, of pale color, free organisms, under-composed, uneaten by animals, not too small (immature) should be taken. Having been washed, wrapped within Kusa grass and pasted with fresh cow-dung they should be stored for eight days in the heap of one of the following-barley husk, black gram, Sali rice, horse gram and green gram. Thereafter when they are softened and develop good honey-like aroma they should be taken out and dried (in the sun). When they are well-dried, their pepper-like seeds should be mixed gently with ghee, curd, honey and sesamum paste and again dried. Finally they should be filled up in a new earthen pitcher, well-cleaned and dustless, up to neck and placed well on a swing of rope well-covered and well-protected.
