The *Tantrayuktivicāra* by Nīlamegha Bhiṣaj⁵³⁹ is a short treatise,⁵⁴⁰ which consists of thirty-six ślokas, accompanied by a rather extensive auto-commentary. It defines, in the same order, the thirty-six tantrayuktis which are found at the end of the *Carakasaṃhitā* (Si.12.41–45ab)⁵⁴¹ and the *Aṣṭāṅgasaṃgraha* (U.50.148–153). Only one item has been added to the series (aviparyaya, after viparyaya), without affecting the number of yuktis and verses as given in the text.
