Application: Prepare/measure the group in karṣa quantities; use as indicated for vāta disorders and to reduce excessive pitta, either individually or as a combined daśamūla regimen.
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
Related Themes: Garuda Purana 1.173 (daśamūla and doṣa-hara groupings)
FAQs
Daśamūla means the classical “ten roots” grouping; the verse frames it as a combination of named botanicals and related items used to address vāta disorders and excess pitta.
No—this specific verse is primarily medical/technical, detailing an herbal grouping and its effects on doṣas rather than death rites or the post-death journey.
It can guide textual identification of daśamūla-related terms; therapeutic use should be done through an Ayurvedic practitioner, especially when vāta-pitta symptoms are involved.
