⁹⁴³ I have not been able to find any printed edition of Bṛhad-yogayātrā. I have used a badly written ms. of it in the Bhau Daji collection of the Bombay Asiatic Society. Part of the Yogayātrā (chapters 1-9) was published by Kern in the Indische Studien vol. X pp. 161-212, vol. XIV pp 312-358, vol XV pp. 167-184 (with translation in German). Mr. Jagadish Lal of Lahore published the whole of it in 1944, but he had a defective ms. and there are many gaps in the text as printed. There is a ms. of the Yogayātrā in the Bhau Daji collection of the Bombay Asiatic Society with the commentary of Utpala. There are 16 chapters of the Yogayātrā with about 467 verses (17 chap. in the Lahore ed ) and the Bṛhadyogayātrā ms. has 34 chapters and about 520 verses i. e. the latter is slightly larger than the former. The Tikkaṇikā is a small work (in nine chapters and about one hundred verses) recently published by Mr. V. R. Pandit (who devotes great industry and acumen in arriving at a tolerable text) in the Journal of the Bombay University, vol. XX part 2 (for 1951) pp. 40-63. Vide my paper on 'Varāhamihira and Utpala' in JBBRAS vol 24-25 (new series) pp. 2-4 and 27. The word is variously written in the mss and by Utpala as टिकनिक, टिक्कणि, टिक्कनिका, टिक्कनिकयात्रा.
