These medicines are prepared from many sources like minerals, plants and animals through various unique methods. Objectives: This research aims to synthesize the Gold bhasma (Swarna) by traditional Indian Ayurvedic method and to characterize the Gold nanoparticles by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Photoluminescence spectroscopy and optical absorption. Methodology: Synthesis of the Gold bhasma was carried out using the unique methods mentioned in Rasashastra like Shodhana (purification), Marana (calcination), Jarana (polling). Characterization of prepared gold nanoparticles was accomplished through X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy Result: Swarna bhasma or nanometer-sized gold compound with diameters in the range of 1-20 nm have generated a great deal of interest due to fundamental and technological applications in the drug discovery area. Conclusion: From this present research work, it can be concluded that prepared Gold Bhasma is an important medicine and has been characterized using scientific characterization methods.&#13;
