<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Surāh''' ([[Sanskrit]] and [[Pāli]]; [[Devanāgarī]]: सुरा) is a strong distilled [[alcoholic drink]] originating from the [[Indian subcontinent]]. It is referred to as an [[anaesthetic]] by [[Sushruta|Suśruta]] (a surgeon in India circa 400 BCE). Other ancient medical authorities also mention it; [[Charaka]] referred to making a woman with a miscarriage senseless to pain by administering alcoholic drinks like ''surā'', ''sīdhu'', ''ariṣṭa'', ''madhu'', ''madirā'' or ''āsava''.<ref>Shri C. DWARAKANATH (1965) Use of opium and cannabis in the [[ayurveda|traditional systems of medicine]] in India. UNODC Bulletin on Narcotics. Issue 1, No. 003. {{cite web |url=http://www.unodc.org/unodc/bulletin/bulletin_1965-01-01_1_page004.html |title=Archived copy |access-date=2007-08-20 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030826172444/http://www.unodc.org/unodc/bulletin/bulletin_1965-01-01_1_page004.html |archive-date=2003-08-26 }}</ref><br />
<br />
The method for preparation appears in the [[Atharvaveda]]<ref>Marianne S. Oort (2002) Sura in the Paippalada Samhita of the Atharvaveda J. Am. Orient. Soc. Vol. 122, No. 2. {{jstor|3087630}}.</ref> in the Kandas 5 and 8. Even today the drink is tradionally made at homes in [[Khar Danda]] village of [[Mumbai]].<br />
<br />
In [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] texts ''surāh'' is mentioned as one of intoxicating drinks, along with ([[Pali]]) ''meraya'' (Sanskrit ''maireya'', a drink made with sugar cane and several spices<ref>Arthashastra http://www.columbia.edu/itc/mealac/pritchett/00litlinks/kautilya/book02.htm</ref>) and ''majja'' (maybe equivalent of Sanskrit ''madhu'', [[mead]] or hydromel), and renunciation of its usage constitutes the 5th of the Buddhist [[five precepts|precepts]] (pañca-sīlāni): "I undertake the training rule to abstain from fermented drinks which cause heedlessness" (''Surāmerayamajjapamādaṭṭhānā veramaṇī sikkhāpadaṃ samādiyāmi'').<br />
