Śarāvasampuṭa (शरावसम्पुट) refers to a certain “arrangement of heating in a pit”, according to a study performed on the drug named Vasantakusumākara Rasa—a classical herbo-mineral formulation which is practiced since ancient times for various therapeutic purposes, said to bring new positive energy in body and life, glow to skin etc.—Accordingly, while describing Śarāvasampuṭa: “To reduce any metal or mineral into bhasma form, it is triturated with other prescribed drugs and made to a paste. Out of this paste, small round and flat cakes (cakrikās) are prepared and dried under sun. Thereafter, these cakrikās are kept inside two earthen plates and the joint of these plates is sealed by wrapping seven layers of mud smeared cloth. This is dried under sun before being subjected to a Puṭa”.
