Use of Vanga Bhasma can traced back from ancient era. Detailed description regarding the procedure is available in various Rasagranthas. Jarana is a special technique mentioned in recent Rasa treatises for Puti Lohas which is an intermediate stage between Shodhana and Marana. In this study, after performing both Samanya and Vishesha Shodhana, Vanga was subjected to Jarana using Ashwatha Twak as per the reference of Rasa Tarangini followed by Prakshalana to remove its alkaline nature. Later Vanga was subjected to Putapaka using Bhavana Dravya as Kumari Swarasa. Organoleptic and Elemental constitutions of both Jarita Vanga and Vanga Bhasma where analysed to see the differences and to observe the changes due to Samanya Shodhana and Vishesha Shodhana.
