Anātapa (अनातप) refers to the “shade” (used for drying seeds), as prescribed by certain bio-organical recipes for plant mutagenesis, according to the Vṛkṣāyurveda by Sūrapāla (1000 CE): an encyclopedic work dealing with the study of trees and the principles of ancient Indian agriculture.—Accordingly, “The seed of Cordia dichotoma should be forced out and cultured seven times in the flesh (oil) of Alangium salviifolium and then it should be rubbed with the dung of she-buffalo and dried in shade (anātapa). If these seeds are mixed in dry buffalo dung and earth and sown and watered with coconut water (gale water?) they turn into a plant of Nymphaea alba or Nymphaea nouchali and there is no wonder”.
