Sandhana kalpana is the preparation of self generated alcohol. All the preparations that are resulting from FERMENTATION procedure come under SANDHANA KALPANA.
Sandhana kalpana is a special technique to prepare most effective medicines like Asava and Aristas. The medicines prepared through Sandhana kriya are quick in action, long shelf life, palatability and has nutritive value.The self-generated alcohol is the key factor behind the success of Sandhana kalpana.

All the preparations that are resulting fron
FERMENTATION procedure come under
SANDHANA KALPANA.
Sandhanakalpana is a special technique to
prepare most effective medicines like Asavaand
Aristas. The medicines prepared through
Sandhanakriyaare quick in action, long shelf
life, palatability and has nutritive value.Theself-
generated alcohol is the key factor behind the
success of Sandhanakalpana.
Literal meaning :
SANDHANA = union, combination, restoring
•This fermentation procedure facilitates the
chemical and biochemical reactions with
breakage and reunion of the bonds in the
preparation of a new compound.

(sha.ma.10/)
It is the process of fermentation where in the dravadravya
along with other medicinal drugs is put in a closed inert
vessel for a specified time period to carry
outfermentationunder favorable conditions.
Asava& Arishtaare the 2 major products of this process.

Mouth is closed using cloth, lid and kept pot undisturbed.
Daily observe for onset of Sandhana(usually takes place in
3-5 days)
Once onset of sandhanaobserved, sandhibandhanaof
mouth is done.
Kept undisturbed for 15 –30 days and later observed for the
completion of sandhana.
After confirming the completion of sandhanathe patrais
opened and utilized.
And the remaining is stored in airtight container and
checked for continues fermentation(sandhana) in the liquid
for every 15 –30 days.

BURNING CANDLE TEST :
•During the onset of fermentation burning
candle gets put off if taken near the
fermentation liquid surface because of the
production of CO2 in it.
•After the completion of fermentation candle
continues to light as there is
no CO2 releasing.
