Ropaṇa (रोपण) refers to an “application (for wounds)”, as described in the treatment (cikitsā) of poison due to rabid dogs (alarka), according to the Kāśyapa Saṃhitā: an ancient Sanskrit text from the Pāñcarātra tradition dealing with both Tantra and Viṣacikitsā—an important topic from Āyurveda which deals with the study of Toxicology (Viṣavidyā or Sarpavidyā).—In the 12h adhyāya, Kāśyapasaṃhita adds external and internal antidotes for poisons of various animals and insects [e.g., dogs (śva)]. [...] Accordingly, “A man bitten by a rabid dog, if bathed in the sunlight and in the boiled preparation of Karañja will be cured. Root of Ālūpīta must be applied on the bite (vraṇ-aropaṇa) as lepa. This mixed with Gula, the wound must be burnt”.

Ropaṇa (रोपण):—[ropaṇaṃ] Substances facilitating wound healing

Source: National Mission for Manuscripts: Traditional Medicine System in India

Ropaṇa (रोपण) refers to “healing” and is the action (karma) associated with Ślakṣṇa (“smooth”): one of the twenty Śārīraguṇa (or Gurvādiguṇa), which refers to the “twenty qualities of the body”—where guṇa (property) represents one of the six divisions of dravya (drugs).—Śārīraka-guṇas are twenty in number. There are ten guṇas with their opposite guṇas. [...] Ślakṣṇa (“smooth”) has the predominant bhūta (element) of earth, water and the associated actions of “healing/ropaṇa”; while Khara (“rough”) has the predominant bhūta (element) of air and is associated with the action “scraping/lekhana”.
