Several centuries later, in 1522, Gaṇeśa, the author of the GL, wrote a brief Pātasādhana²⁹⁵ accompanied by tables that allow one to compute the times of occurrence of the two pātas of the Sun and the Moon, vaidhṛta and vyatīpāta. Commentaries on the Pātasādhana were composed by the Divākara who also commented on the Makaranda in the early seventeenth century, by Divākara’s cousin, Viśvanātha, and by Dinakara²⁹⁶ at Poona in 1839.
