¹³⁰⁰ Vide मनु VI. 50 न चोत्पातनिमित्ताभ्यां न नक्षत्राङ्गविद्यया। नानुशासनवादाभ्यां भिक्षां लिप्सेत कर्हिचित्॥. The commentators give different explanations of अङ्गविद्या. Probably it means सामुद्रिक or lore about the indications from the throbbing of the several limbs. A work Called Aṅgavijjā edited by Muni Puṇyavijayaji is published by the Prakrit Text Society at Banaras. It speaks of eight kinds of निमित्तs viz. अङ्ग, स्वप्न, लक्षण, व्यञ्जन, स्वर, चिह्न, भौम and आन्तरिक्ष. For कालिदास, vide शान्तमिदमाश्रमपदं स्फुरति च बाहुः कुतः फलमिहास्य। शाकुन्तल I. 11; मनोरथाय नाशंसे किं बाहो स्पन्दसे वृथा। शाकुन्तल VII. 13; शाकुन्तल ।-अहो किं मे वामेतरन्नयनं विस्फुरति। शाकुन्तल Act V after verse 11.
