Diamond is purified by digesting it in the decoction of kulattha (Dolicos biforus) or of kodrava (paspalum scrobiculatum) for three hours, in a Dolikāyantra.3
“Diamond is to be macerated four times in the blood of the bug and enclosed in a ball made of the flesh of the musk rat, and then to be roasted in a covered crucible thirty times, or to be heated, hundred times and; lunged in the decoction of kulattha.”4

It is then heated hundred times and thrown into pure mercury-the diamond is thus killed and reduced to fine ashes."
