Cow milk four times the snuhi latex is boiled with it, set into curd with buttermilk and churned; the butter is cooked again with snuhi latex. It is drunk for half a month or a month.

Detailed answer

Verses 158-159 call it the best of ghees and the means against the great diseases; the commentary says it works through purgation and is the one excellent means against kushtha, udara and similar great diseases, and that ghees made with decoctions of purgative drugs also help. Verses 160-161 cook it again with more purgative drugs to make mahanaracha ghee.
