c4.s2.93

Brahmā, Sūrya, Soma, Vasiṣṭha, and Pulastya are mentioned as agreeing with his Saurapakṣa parameters in the Siddhāntasundara⁹⁰ (1, 1, 25) by Jñānarāja,⁹¹ who wrote this work at Pārthapura on the Godāvarī in 1503; that by Brahmā he means the *siddhānta* belonging to the Śākalyasaṃhitā is clear from SSJ 2, 1, 3. This work basically follows Lalla’s arrangement, but like the SŚB it adds an *ṛtuvarṇana* (SSJ 2, 6). A commentary, Grahaṇita-cintāmaṇi, was written by Jñānarāja’s son, Cintāmaṇi,⁹² in about 1530.
