Note: The quantity of kalka of sarṣapa is not mentioned in the above recipe. According to commentary of Cakrapāṇi on this verse, it may be decided. [ ] In the nirūha basti with an amount of twelve prasṛtas, the amount of kalka is usually two palas (about100gms).  In present recipe, the amount is five prasṛtas and therefore the amount of kalka of sarṣapa would be about 40 gms. This principle is applicable in latter recipes also where the amount of kalka is not mentioned.
