Sarasvativilāsa
From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia
By Swami Harshananda
The Sarasvativilāsa is a compilation of various subjects normally dealt with in the dharmaśāstras. The author Pratāpa-rudradeva was a king of the Gajapati dynasty, who ruled at Katakanagarī[1] during the period A. D. 1497-1540. The subjects dealt with in the Vyavahārakānda which is available now in print mostly concern the methods of judicial procedure. The work often quotes from the Mitāksarā of Vijñāneśvara[2] and appreciates the views of Bhāruci[3] who commented upon the Viṣṇudharmasutras.
