16.5
Padmaka, puṇḍra, vṛddhi, tugā, ṛddhi, śṛṅgī, and amṛtā are the ten known as jīvanīya;
they produce breast milk, eliminate vāta and pitta, and are pleasing, nourishing, vitalizing, and aphrodisiac.
They name it by these names; and it initially rushes down into the feet.
With that decoction, and half-parts each of surā-liquor, curd scum, fermented grain gruel, and pomegranate juice, along with half-pala portions of yavānī, dīpyaka, amlavetasa, hiṅgu, cavikā, rock salt, trikaṭu, triphalā, and deodar cedar, a prastha of cooked ghee drunk is equal in effect to the preceding.
With sugar, śatāvarī, medā, puṇḍrāhva, madhuka, and utpala.
