> One should cook four palas of cleaned, dry garlic  
> in eight times as much milk and water, and a man should drink it when the milk remains.  
> Vāta-lump, upward movement of vāyu, sciatica, intermittent fever,  
> heart disease, internal abscess, and swelling—that milk cures rapidly.  
> Thus \[ends\] Garlic-milk.  
> Oil, clear wine, cow urine, sour fermented gruel, and barley-ash—  
> drunk together, it cures abdominal lump, belly disease, and abdominal distension.  
> Thus \[ends\] the Five Oils.  
> With a decoction of the five roots containing alkali, one should drink  
> śilājatu; by its use one is freed from a vāta-lump.  
> Thus \[ends\] the formulation of śilājatu.  
> Having eaten parched barley paste with soup of pippalī or with radish juice,  
> unctuous, one is freed from upward movement of vāyu and from vāta-lump.
