A History of Indian Medical Literature v2.c37.328

v2.c37.328

525 A medical treatise is quoted. 526 The Nāgānandanāṭaka of Harṣa. 527 This Naiyāsika may be Hariścandra, whose commentary on the Carakasaṃhitā was called Carakanyāsa. Amitaprabha also wrote a Carakanyāsa. Compare Nyāsa. 528 See on this work: NCC IX, 333; Tāntrika Sāhitya 322. 529 Dhanvantariyanighaṇṭu 1.274 and 276 are quoted. 530 Compare Naiyāsika. 531 Pāñcāla Bābhravya, an author on erotics mentioned by Vātsyāyana in his Kāmasūtra (1.1. 10). 532 An otherwise unknown commentary on the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā. Compare Pañcikākāra. 533 This list is incomplete. 534 The author of the Pāthya on the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdaya. 535 I.e., the Aṣṭāṅgasamgraha. 536 I.e., the author of the Vyākhyāsāra on the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdaya (see P.K. Nārāyaṇapiḷḷai’s Intr. to the ed. with Śrīdāsa’s commentary, 4–5). 537 Compare Aruṇadatta. 538 Compare Indu. 539 A verse on the origin of harītakī. 540 Verses on unwholesome combinations of articles of food. The Ślokālaṃkāra is also quoted in Anantakumāra’s Yogaratnasamuccaya. 541 Eight verses are quoted which do not form part of the printed text of the Suśrutasaṃhitā (compare Sū.45.1–7). 542 This list is far from complete. 543 It is not known from which work these quotations are taken and who the author of the ṭippaṇas may be. 544 This quotation from the Kāvyālaṃkārasamgraha is also found in Aruṇadatta’s commentary. 545 The Vaidehīsaṃhitā of Skandarakṣita is quoted on the subject of añjana. The same quotation is found in Indu’s Śaśilekhā on the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdaya, where it is said to be from the Vaidehasaṃhitā. 546 Yādavaprakāśa’s lexicon of this name; Vaijayantī 8.1.10 is quoted. Compare Yādava. 547 The quotation disagrees with Maheśvara’s Viśvaprakāśa (gāntavarga 56). 548 Yādavaprakāśa’s Vaijayantī (6.5.7) is quoted. Compare Vaijayantī. 549 An astronomical text is quoted. 550 The author calls himself Paṇḍita in the introductory verse and at a number of places in his commentary. The colophons call him Śrīdāsapaṇḍita. 551 The name of this teacher is found in the introductory verse of the Hṛdayabodhīkā. P.K. Nārāyaṇa Piḷḷai, the editor of part II of the commentary, says in his Introduction (4) that this Vāsudeva may be the author of the Navakhaṇḍa, a Malayāḷam work on medicine. Śrīdāsa’s teacher may, in my opinion, have been the Vāsudeva who wrote the Anvayamālā. Śrīdāsa refers to his teacher as asmadguravaḥ. 552 See P.K. Nārāyaṇa Piḷḷai’s Introduction (4–5) to Part II of the Hṛdayabodhīkā. 553 P.K. Nārāyaṇa Piḷḷai (Intr. 8) concludes that he lived earlier than A.D. 1300. 554 Quoted as Dāsapaṇḍita ad A.H.Sū.27.14–16ab. 555 See N.S. Mooss’s upodghāta to his edition of Paramevara’s Vākyapradīpikā.
