The लघुजातक I 4 mentions the same limbs and rāśis but in a shorter compass, the वामनपुराण (chap 5 38-42) holds that Rudra assumed the form of Kāla and identifies the rāśis from Meṣa onwards with the head and other limbs of Kāla and the Mārkaṇḍeyapurāṇa (55 75-79) assigns rāśis to the several limbs of Nārāyaṇa. कालनरस्यावयवान्पुरुषाणां कल्पयेन्नभस्काले । सदसद्ग्रहसंयोगात्पुष्टाम्लोपद्रुवांश्चापि ॥ सारावली III. 6. - [Previous: v6.c82.330](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v6.c82.330) - [Next: v6.c82.332](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v6.c82.332) - [Up: v6.c82](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v6.c82) ## Linked texts (7) - [Vāmanapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.vamana.5.38) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit - [Bṛhatsaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.samhita.rsi.brhatsamhita.39.1) — Varāhamihira, Sanskrit - [Sārāvalī](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.hora.yavana.saravali.3.6) — Kalyāṇavarman, Sanskrit - [Bṛhajjātaka](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.hora.yavana.brhajjataka.1.4) — Varāhamihira, Sanskrit - [Mārkaṇḍeyapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.markandeya) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit - [Laghujātaka](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.hora.yavana.laghujataka) — Varāhamihira, Sanskrit - [Brahmasūtra](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.vedanta.brahmasutra) — Bādarāyaṇa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v6.c82.331](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v6.c82.331) · Pramāṇa
