Abstract

Sneha dravyas cause snehana(oilyness), vishyandana(flowing), mardavata(softness) and kledana(moistening) in the tissues and nourish them by improving the dehabala, agnibala and prolong the life span.We find number of preparations under Sneha Kalpana which are widely prescribed by practitioners in day to day practice. Here Ghrita or any other sneha like tila taila will be the base. Before using any Sneha for ghrita or taila preparation, murchana/sammurchana has to be done. Sammurchana is an important step or samskara . It is an integral procedure done to remove ama dosha and gandhadosha which will be present in taila or ghrita. This study aims at the importance of ghrita and tila taila, along with the importance of Moorchana in preparing a medicine under Sneha Kalpana.
