A measure of volume.

The smallest measure of grain in ancient India, equivalent to about five or six ounces.

Either a measure for liquids defined as being equal to twenty-four palas, or a measure for grains that is equal to twenty-nine palas minus one karṣa (supposedly placed on the grain side of the scales). The Tibetan bre refers to a measure of about one liter or two pints.

A unit of weight equal to thirty-two pala.

Two prasthas equal half an āḍhaka, which is about three and a half or four pounds.

The Sanskrit mānikā is also a term used as a measure of weight for grains. It is usually defined as equal to two kuḍavas or eight palas, which is equivalent to about four hundred grams. In this text, however, it probably just refers to a “small amount,” as reflected in the Tibetan bre’u chung.
