Ramabhata, a Jyotiṣi, compiled this work in Śaka 1522. Some account of this Ramabhata has already appeared before (Page 151). It contains the same subjects as are usually found in muhūrta works. Its influence is widespread. It has a commentary named Pramitākṣarā by the author himself and another named Piyūṣadhārā by his nephew Govinda. Both of them have been printed. The names of astronomical works, occurring in the commentary on Piyūṣadhārā (Śaka 1525) and not referred to before, are :—Jaganmohana, Jyotiṣa Ratna Saṃgrha.
