அஞ்சுருக்காணியுப்பு

[ Anjurukkaaniuppu]

a. முடியண்ட படருப்பு.

b. A kind of salt extracted from the human skull by a special process known only to Siddhars. It was used in Alchemy.
NOTE: It is a universal salt sought for by Siddhars for averting death. It contains the highest essence in the smallest of the quantity (quintessence). It is supposed to be extracted from a foetus (3 months old) selected for the purpose.
It should not be confounded with the Philosopher’s stone or the Elixir of life of the Middle ages or to the life Principle Alkhest or Primumens spoken of in the Latin alchemy known as Turba Philosophorum or to the Protyle of our times, for the reason that none of these seems to have even the slightes semblance nor does it bear any comparison to the one in question, as the later is said to confer inordinate and miraculous powers, such as those described in the Ashtama siddhis (the eight Supernatural powers).
