This MS. deals with the preparation of metallic medicines, and their names and applications in Ayurveda. The margin of this MS. asserts the name of the text as 'Kaikalirasah'. At the very beginning in F. la, an index (Anukramani) of the entire text of Kankalirasah', otherwise known as 'Rasakankaliyah', has been given in details. But the last folio. Viz.F. 17a&b.dealing with 'Vatarirasah' and others, as mentioned in the index, cannot be traced in the MS. Hence the MS. appears to be incomplete. The MS. also contains another index at the end, termed as "Rasahemānukramani', the text of which can not be found at all in the MS. Beginning :
ऊँ नमो रसराजेंद्राय ॥ श्री भैरवं प्रणम्यादी सर्वत्रं त्रिजगता (भुम्) । श्री भारती च विघ्नेशं वंदे प्रत्यूई (6)शांतये ॥१॥ अथ ध्यायन् समावातः श्रीकंकालीययोगिनः । हविया भुवि चायं विष्णं चापि भोजन (नम्) ॥२॥ क्रियापटेन सिध्यति तपोनि (3) फलंति हि । सूतदोषांस्ततः शुदि संस्कारान् प्राक् बदाम्पहुं(म्) ॥३॥
