v6.c40.s27.15

The fact that one *Mayamata* is included in the list of thirty-two authorities mentioned in the *Mānasāra* itself does not present much difficulty in accepting this view. *Mayamata*, like *Manu* (or *Mānasāra*) is apparently a generic name, and the treatise catalogued under the title *Mayamata-vāstu-śāstra* need not necessarily be ascribed to the authority mentioned in the *Mānasāra*.
