Garudapurana 1.189

Glorious Garuḍa Mahāpurāṇa — 189 / Hari said: / Filling the eyes with juice of white aparājitā flowers / destroys cataract; no doubt should be entertained on this.

By chewing the root of gokṣura, O Nīlalohita, / pain from dental worms is destroyed, O Crusher of Gods and Asuras.

If a woman, fasting on the day of her menstrual period, drinks the root / of white arka with cow's milk, it relieves her phantom tumor and acute pain.

A white arka flower taken according to rite and previously consecrated with mantras, / tied to the waist of a woman purified after menstruation, brings about easy childbirth.

The root of palāśa or apāmārga, O Hara, / tied to the hand removes all fevers and drives away bhūtas, pretas, and the like.

The root of vṛścika consumed in the morning together with water / stored overnight destroys burning fever, O Parameśvara.

And tied to the tuft of hair, it removes quotidian fevers; / drunk with water stored overnight, it removes all poisons.

He to whom the root of lajjālukā is given along with his own semen / enters into enmity, whether a man or a woman: there is no doubt.

Whoever drinks the root of pāṭhā after grinding it with cow's ghee / will destroy all poison; no doubt should be entertained on this.

By taking root of śirīṣa with water stored overnight in this way, / and by filling the ears with the juice of red citraka root, O Hara, / the disease of jaundice is destroyed: there is no doubt.

The root of white kokilākṣa combined with goat's milk / drunk for three weeks completely destroys consumption.

One should drink coconut flower mixed with goat's milk; / his threefold raktavāta is destroyed.

One should take the root of sudarśanā well collected with a garland; / tied around the neck, it destroys tertian fevers, grahas, and bhūtas.

The flower and root of white guñjā gathered / and placed in the mouth, O Rudra, removes many different poisons.

Tied to the hand with its stem, or tied to the neck, it removes grahas and the like; / gathered on the fourteenth day of the dark fortnight and tied around the waist, / it removes fear from wild beasts like lions, O Nīlalohita.

One should wear the root of viṣṇukrāntā tied to the ear / with a silk thread, O Lord, O Lord of Bhūtas: there will be no fear of crocodiles and the like.

Thus ends the one hundred and eighty-ninth chapter in the Ācārakāṇḍa of the first section called Pūrvakhaṇḍa in the glorious Garuḍa Mahāpurāṇa.
