Bhutabhairava Rasa — Overview
Bhutabhairava Rasa is a classical Rasaushadhi made from equal parts of Parada, Gandhaka, and Tamra. The mixture is pounded with Chitraka kwatha, placed in a Vajramoosha (crucible), and subjected to Valuka Yantra paka for 4 yama (approximately 12 hours).
After cooling, the material is steeped with Marjara (cat) and Jambuka (jackal) Pitta for 2 yama, then rolled into pills of Gunja Bija size and administered with Sitalodaka (cold water). It is indicated for Sandhika Jwara — intermittent/joint fever presenting with severe articular pain.
