Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: Wisdom Library: Āyurveda and botanyTilakiṭṭa (तिलकल्क) refers to “the waste (kiṭṭa) of Tila-seeds (Sesamum indicum)”. It is obtained as after expelling the oil from the Tila-seeds, after which the left overs are called kiṭṭa (‘waste’).
Tilakiṭṭa is pungent, sweet and cures kapha and vāta disorders and prameha (the obstinate urinary disorders).
According to the Rājanighaṇṭu (verse 16.111), Tilakiṭṭa has 3 synonyms: Piṇyāka, Khala (or Khalī) and Tilakalkaja.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
