Rasendra Chudamani is a classical Sanskrit text that systematically presents the theory and practice of Rasashastra, the specialized branch of Ayurveda dealing with the preparation of Mercurial, Metallic, and Mineral-based medicines, Composed by Acharya Somadeva, the text serves as a comprehensive guide for the Purification (?hodhana), Incineration (M?ra?a), Detoxification (Am?itikara?a), and therapeutic application of Parada (mercury) and other Rasa and Dh?tudravyas. It is considered to be the best classical text pertaining to Rasashastra written in 12 A.D by Somadeva. One of the earliest printed editions was brought out in 1932 by Yadavji Trikamji Acharya and Jayadeva Vidyalankara, published by Motilal Banarsidas, Lahore. This edition provided a Sanskrit script based on older manuscripts. Later, Dr.Siddhinandan Mishra authored a significant Sanskrit-Hindi translation titled Siddhiprada, which aimed to make the technical verses of Rasendra Chudamani more accessible to students and practitioners.Very recently, Dr. Rameshwar Dayal Vajpayee has composed a Hindi commentary on this classical text, published by Chaukhambha Krishnadas Academy, Varanasi. Together, these translations have preserved and revitalized the significance of Rasendra Chudamani, offering linguistic, conceptual, and practical clarity for both scholars and Ayurvedic professionals.
