The earliest dated manuscript was copied in 1607; but a commentary, the Arthakaumudī, had been penned by Govindānanda Kavikaṅkaṇa⁷ nearly a century before. The Śuddhidīpikā was popular primarily in Bengal and Mithilā, so that this Śrīnivāsa probably lived in that area of India. - [Previous: c10.9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1981.c10.9) - [Next: c10.11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1981.c10.11) - [Up: c10](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1981.c10) ## Linked texts (1) - [Śuddhīdīpikā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.muhurta.vyavahara.suddhidipika) — Śrīnivāsa Mahintāpanīya, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1981.c10.10](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.pingree-1981.c10.10) · Pramāṇa
