Abstract
Kshara is an important dose type stated in Ayurveda that is made from plant ash. Kshara has some similar qualities, such as an alkaline nature, water solubility, and a pale colour. Kshara has an advantage over all surgical and parasurgical measures since it can be used on skinny, frail individuals who are afraid of surgery. In classical writings, many herbs like as Apamarga, Snuhi, and Kadali Palasha are utilised to create Kshara, either individually or combined. The therapeutic usage of Kshara of different plants differs from one another, hence analytical research of each Kshara is required. Aims & Objectives The current study involves the preparation and analysis of Palasha (Butea monosperma) Kshara in order to better understand its properties. Material and Methods: Kshara preparation consists of several steps. In this study, Palasha Kshara is prepared using the general process described in the Sharangadhara Samhita. The prepared Kshara is submitted to several physicochemical evaluations, and the results are concluded. Results: The Palasha Kshara has physical features such as pale colour, strong odour, and softness to the touch. Chemically, it contains potassium, phosphorus, and sulphur, as well as trace amounts of other elements. The current study describes the methods and findings of Palasha Kshara's medicinal and analytical studies.
