v3.c50.s2.4

Chapter three (guṭikārasāyana; 221 verses) describes a series of miraculous pills (guṭikās and vatikās) to be employed in the saṃskāras called krāmaṇa and vedha, as well as for rasāyana purposes. Some of these pills may be peculiar to the Rasāyanakhaṇḍa,34 while some are also found in the Rasakāmadhenu, which may have borrowed them.
