The text deals with spiritual and medical herbalism such as the treatment of fever and diseases in the form of Kalpas, commonly known in Āyurveda as “remedies” or “antidotes”. The Gaurīkāñcalikā-tantra further deals with a variety of harvesting techniques and rules for optimal efficiency in collecting herbs while respecting and preserving the natural environment.
