Today’s era of globalisation everything regarding any research should be explained in a Universal language. Lack of use of scientific approach is one among the important factors hindering the globalisation of Ayurveda. Though traditional methods of analysis for any prepared Ayurvedic medicine, holds unique approach and have been time-tested but in the present scenario there is a necessity of understanding the drug based on modern technology of analysis as well. In Ayurvedic systems of medicines rasa Chikitsa recommends the use of metal and minerals in the form of Bhasma and kupipakwa Rasayanas because when used in proper doses, they are reported to be free from toxic effect on body tissues. Swarnamakshika is known as Saklamyaghan (cures all diseases) and Prana of Parada. In this study analytical study of Ashudha Swarnamakshika (ASM), and prepared classical Swarnamakshika Bhasma (SMB) was carried out according to both classical as well as modern parameters. Physicochemical analysis of Swarnamakshika Bhasma was done after first, fifth and tenth puta.
