The commentary is elucidative and quotes several authorities including Bhāskara I, \*Laghubhāskarīya\*, Saṅgamagrāma Mādhava, Parameśvara of Vaṭaśreṇi, \*Karaṇapaddhati\* and a \*Prakāśikā\* which remains to be identified.⁴ A Malayalam quotation from Parameśvara¹ poses a problem, for all known works of Parameśvara are in Sanskrit. Possibly, Parameśvara has written also in Malayalam or the passage in question is only a view of Parameśvara expressed in Malayalam.² - [Previous: c10.s8.130](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sarma-1972.c10.s8.130) - [Next: c10.s8.132](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sarma-1972.c10.s8.132) - [Up: c10.s8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sarma-1972.c10.s8) ## Cites (3) - [Āryabhaṭīya](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.siddhanta.early.aryabhatiya) — Āryabhaṭa, Sanskrit - [Laghubhāskarīya](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.siddhanta.early.laghubhaskariya) — Bhāskara I, Sanskrit - [Karaṇapaddhati](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.kerala.tantra.karanapaddhati) — Putumana Somayājī 1660, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sarma-1972.c10.s8.131](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.sarma-1972.c10.s8.131) · Pramāṇa
