Classical reference
Documented in the Ashtanga Hridayam, Chikitsa Sthana, chapter 21, and listed in the Ayurvedic Formulary of India (Part I, 6:27), where it also carries the name Panchatikta Guggulu Ghrita. In the classical preparation the Guggulu is suspended in a cloth above the cooking ghee, a method known as Dola Yantra. The classical formula is larger than ours. Art of Vedas prepares a simple ghee in this tradition.
