There are two major problems with this article
1) Some authors have felt the need to put their disgust of using Mercury in medicine in each section. To those authors: This article is not suppose to be your opinion, but a description of what the Rasa Shastra actually states. Please keep the criticism to the criticism section. Moreover, please give citations for the criticisms.
2) There are virtually no references. Please include more references —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.13.37.165 ( talk) 05:49, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
I can't begin to even understand this article, but mercury is toxic. There really needs to be a criticism section in this article... what do people think? Also, a mention of this article: http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/short/300/8/915 Observer31 ( talk) 12:12, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
This is an article advocating the ingestion of toxic metals. Does anybody have a problem with this?-- NoPetrol ( talk) 01:52, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
There's a tiny "Disclaimers" link at the bottom of the page. Wikipedia is 100% risky free OK.
Seriously though, this article lacks any references, and should be deleted unless references are introduced. -- 129.241.151.140 ( talk) 17:54, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
I have added a criticism section and have included what I think is a pretty suitable list of references. I have noted in the edit history that some criticism was a bit ... unduly harsh. While I intend to keep an eye on this page to be sure that the criticism section does stay here, let's be civil folks and not go overboard. Observer31 ( talk) 01:03, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Ok, are there *any* references to this stuff besides information on mercury toxicity? I've added a few references, but they only pertain to the criticism section. Observer31 ( talk) 03:17, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
how u can call a substance toxic if it it is treating lakhs of people whom no pathy can treat. i am saying this because i have given mercury to many people without causing any harm —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.68.8.189 ( talk) 08:01, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
"On the theory of "yatha lohe tatha dehe" it is believed to have done much in the creation of Rasa Shastra." We can put this back in if we can figure out what it means and attribute it. Jo3sampl ( talk) 21:49, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
Samskara: A purificatory ceremony or rite marking a major event in one's life. Sanskara: In Hinduism sanskaras (singular: sanskara) (Sanskrit for impression; under the impulse of previous impressions) are the imprints left on the subconscious mind by experience in this or previous lives, which then color all of life, one's nature, responses, states of mind, etc. Both if these words appear in the article -- not sure if that's correct.

A person from USA or any other elsewhere reads something (or a lot thing - as per that person's view) on an indian topic and writes a wikipedia page on that topic --- accepted! after that, when a person comes from india and edits some things which are for the better knowledge of wikipedia readers, and the our foreigner brother undoes the edits and put back those old things written by him --- not accepted!!
we are having a great team for the topic RASA SHASTRA and hundreds of subtopics. help us to transform our knowledge to write it over here in wikipedia pages. Thank you, Milindchatrabhuji ( talk) 11:11, 5 September 2015 (UTC) Dr Milind Chatrabhuji, M.D. (Rasa Shastra)

This page is incredibly biased and lacks critical citations, especially concerning dates and names of authors.
The history of development is factually incorrect, the classical textbook list includes massively incorrect dates, very few citations, and appears to just be a random collection of texts.
The writing is stilted and needs to be updated to read more clearly.
The use of diacritics is inconsistent and needs to be edited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:56A:F346:E800:94D0:205E:9482:DCC8 ( talk) 22:21, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
I removed this from the text under the heading "See also" - this is not a list of wikilinks. Don't know what it is or where it should go, but please properly title it if you put it back into the article. Skyerise ( talk) 13:01, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

"In Ayurvedic medicine, the compilation of traditional ancient Indian medicine practice is called rasashastra,.."
Source?
No. Rasashastra might be a part of ayurveda. But is not a compilation of traditional Indian medicine.
A compilation of Indian traditional medicine is "Ayurveda/Ayurvedic"
"Rassa" means mercury
"shastra" means knowledge.
"Rasashatras"= knowledge/science of mercury.
(or some people say "knowledge of metals")

No. Rasashastra might be a part of ayurveda. But is not a compilation of traditional Indian medicine.
A compilation of Indian traditional medicine is "Ayurveda/Ayurvedic"
"Rassa" means mercury
"shastra" means knowledge.
"Rasashatras"= knowledge/science of mercury.
