: Shodhganga: Kasyapa Samhita鈥擳ext on Visha ChikitsaCauterisation (in Sanskrit: Daha) refers to one of the eight divisions of (Medical) treatment (of Poison) (i.e., Cikits膩), according to the K膩艣yapa Sa峁僪it膩: an ancient Sanskrit text from the P膩帽car膩tra tradition dealing with both Tantra and Toxicology.鈥擨n K膩艣yapasa峁僪it膩 (XII.63) the sage states that treatment for poison (肠颈办颈迟蝉腻) is eight-fold [viz., cauterisation (daha)]. Formulations prescribed by K膩艣yapa are reckoned for their easy availability, sheer clarity and easy administration. Rather than the use of chemicals, acids, bromides etc. he has drawn from the vast storehouse of nature, more so the vegetable kingdom whose efficacy has been observed, tried and recommended from time to time.
