________________ 143 63. By grinding together sky-coloured sulphur, Somala (oxide of arsenic), then white borax, also in equal portion, each measuring two māsās, as very fine (powder) and rubbing them with orpiment, in a mortar, take it with the liquid of the juice of Aloe Vera which is washing (changing) the beauty of the body and smear the guţikā with that which is sticky. 64. By placing it in a śarāba (earthen lid) and putting another śarāba over it, wrap the whole thing (Śarāba) with a piece of cloth smeared with clay. Then cast it into the burning fire of dry wild cowdung cakes, the heat of which becomes bearable to fingers and take out (the. Śaraba from the fire) and make it cool, then take the medicine out of the Śaraba) by removing the covering of clay-cloth wrapped up over it. 65. A wise man makes samskrti (culture of it or treatment of it) with one hundred and twenty puțas (roastings) by the aforesaid smearing and again heating it by fire like that (method). The medicine becomes worthy by fifty puțas (roastings) and then it is taken (accepted) within a pala (moment). The smearing of this medicine cures all diseases just as the great (strong) air (wind) removes a piece of cloud within a pala (moment). 66. The remaining thing becomes pure like the moon by the application of one hundred and twenty puțas (roastnigs). It gets certainly powdered instantly by the pressing of the hands without any difficulty. Give (mix) only one rati of this essence into only 1 karşa of the heated wellknown Nepalese copper. Immediately it (copper) becomes certainly calcinated (bhasmatah). 67. This ash (bhasma) can be applied to another copper (leaf), that also again to another successively. This ash (bhasma) can thus be used seven times and eight times also. Gold gets certainly produced in that copper (i.e. Copper is converted into gold.) Here it is told by Jinadattasari meditating on the two lotus feet of Śrımadarhat for the benefit of the world. 68-69 This Suvarna-Raupya-Siddhi-śāstra is written by me, Jinadattasūri with an experience, belonging to the pure celebrated Kharatara gaccha in the world in Vs. 1210 on the day of Akşaya tặtiyā for destroying the misery of the people.
