Introduction:-
Due to its origin in many places, there are five distinctions of Mercury principal names-Ras, Rasendra, Soot, Mercury and Mixer. Such are the name of God Shiva, so many names are also of Mercury. Because there is such a mention in the scriptures. As:
- Ras:- The color of this type of mercury is red. It is devoid of all types of defects and chemicals. By the use of the mercury, the god becomes free from disease, old age and death.
- Rasendra:- It is innocent by nature, dark (black and yellow), rough and very clean. Nagdev was a little freed from death and death due to this paradise. Due to use of this mercury, human do not become immortal, so the good covered this well with mud and stone. Since then, both Ras and Rasendra become rare for humans.
- Soot:- The mercury called soot is yellow, rough and mixed with defects. It is used for body and iron accomplishment when purified by 18 rites.
- Mercury:- It is fickle and white in color, nowadays it is found as a mercury and many types of medicines are made by purifying it.
- Mixer:- The mixer mercury is shiny and thin like a feather of a peacock. It is also used only on purification by 18 rites.

The inclusion of other metals in Mercury:-
Just as Yogiraj, enlightened in Shivamurti, attains salvation, similarly the suvarnadi metals are absorbed in the mercury deposited by asbestos. Sattvic-bases of herbs are absorbed into the glass. Similarly, the glass gets absorbed in bang, bang in copper, copper in silver, silver in gold and gold in mercury. Just as all living beings become enlightened in Bhrama, similarly all Rasadi metals get absorbed in the mercury.
Dimerit of Mercury:-
1. Naag (Glass), 2. Bang (Ganga), 3. Mal, 4. Agni, 5. Fickleness, 6. Venom, 7. Giridosh, 8. Asehmlishosh (To bear fire, fly by heating on fire). These eight Mahadosha live in paradise by nature. There are many opinions about the disadvantage of mercury. In the Text 'Rasendra Chundamni' and Ras Prakash Sudhakar' five natural defects have been written of mercury and other seven and other three natural defects in some texts.
Explaining the merit of mercury:-
The natural mercury and there Ras-Karpooradi compounds are dahk venom, Other metals are also found in the mercury obtained naturally, to show the three defects located in the natural mercury-it is written in books like Rasratnasamujachaya etc.
In the unclear mercury, the mark from the defective been considered to be original and defective due to the coincidence of Dahk and Dhatwantar due to the defects.
Consumption of mercury or such mercury compound containing these two causes death, sorrow and fussiness.
Even today's scientists believe this. In Ghosh's "Materia Medica", it is written in the tittle "Acute Toxinfection" (Intantaneous poison-toxin effect) that "Mercury compound especially in Ras-Karpooradi (Corosive Sublimate), Ras Pushp (Kelomal, Sudhanidhi Sama) and Mugdha Rasa (Grant Powder) give a terrible feeling to the body. Due to which vomiting, purgation, colic, blood presure, faintness and finally death also occur.
That is why in our ancient Rasashastra full arrangements have been made for the rituals of mercury, so that these defects are destroyed and the combination of matter produces curative and potent properties.
The poison-effect of mercury is natural. When mercury escapes from mines, Sankhiya and Antimani also accompanies from there, they both poisonous and also flighty. Therefore, while purifying, must also try to remove their impurities.
Two compound doshas are also believed to be Naag and Vang in Mercury. As:
These are also fine from modern point of view. Ghosh's book titled "Materia Medica and Therapeutics" states that impurities of lead, tin and other metals are also found in mercury.
Regarding other metals, a scholar named Ladder Brand has written in his treatise called "Pharmacology Therapeutics and Materia Medica" that other defects can be Nag (lead), Arsenic (Sankhiya), Antimery (Srotogen). It is clear from these quotes that other metals are found in mercury. Therefore, assuming mal-dosha is absolutely true.

Saptkanchak Dosha of Mercury:-
In the addition of above mentioned defects, Saptkanchak Dosha is also considered in Mercury.
What is Saptkachak dosha?
Sampratik- The examination of chemistry and mineralogy shows that mercury is often heavier than all metals. When it combines with other metals, it is called translucent mixer. In the state, the metals found inside the mercury are usually spread as a cover over the mercury. These types of cover are called "Kanchak".
Mercury kanchuk doshas are well described in the oriental and westernised manner in "Rasatarangini". As:
The mixer of mercury is released under extreme pressure, that is, the mercury comes out differently, often on the basis of this knowledge, Ayurvedic rasists have described various types of remedies to purify the mercury.
Mercury is generally found with Bang, Suvarna, Tagra, Silver and iron according to the article "Latin Gabor" and then with Mercury, Yashad, Naag, Bang metal according to the authors. Melts hard with iron.
