Resource Type : Manuscript
Subject : Astrology
Script : Devanagari Handwriting
Notes/Description : Vivahavrndavana is a treatise in 17 chapters on auspicious times for marriage, composed by Kes'avarka, son of Raniga, grand-son of S’riyaditya and great-grand-son of Janardana. This Kes’ava is much older than Kes’ava of Nandigrama and the author of Muhurtatatva; see above No. 317. Kes’ava of Nandigrama uses the S'aka year 1418, while a MS. of our Kes’ava’s Vivahavrndavana is dated S’ake 1320; cf. I. O.,No. 3037. Aufrecht, Cat. Cata, I. p. 128 and Bod. Cata, App. to vol. I, No. 791, wrongly identify the two Kes'avas. Bendall, Bri. Muse.p. 202, rightly distinguishes between the two.According to Ganakatarangini, (Pandit, New Series, vol. XIV) p. 45, Kes’avarka flourished about A. D. 1252. Cf. also, Diksit, p. 257.
