आश्र्वलायन गृह्यसूत्र with वृत्ति

Original Era : संवत 1830; शके 1695;
Subject : Grhya Sutras
Script : Devanagari Handwriting
Notes/Description : A Thale MS.; see above No. 440. As’valayana Grhyasutra with the Vrtti of Narayana,who is usually supposed to be the same as the commentator of the As’valayana S’rautasutra.But this is doubtful; the commentator of of the S’rautasutra is Narayana, son of Narasinha, who belongs to the Gargya Gotra (see above No. 509 ), whereas our Narayana belongs to the Naidhruva Gotra and is the son of Divakara.The introductory verses, however, seem to be favourable to the assumed identity of the two. The two seem to be regarded as different at Bhandarkar, Report, 1884-87, pp. 7, 8. The following allusion to the As’. S’r., VI. 10 and its explanation, when Compared with the commentary of Narayana Gargya on that passage,leave an impression that the two may not be different :—Narayana refers to the earlier writers but never by name. Jayantasvami, whose opinions are often contrasted with those of our Narayana by Kumarasvami in the As'valayanagrhyakarikas (see the next number) seems to be unknown to our author. Probably he lived after him. This last verse which is found in all MSS.Consulted by me and also in the printed edition is clearly against the identity of the two Narayanas. But it is not impossible to assume that Narayana was the natural son of one of the two i. e. Divakara and Narasinha and was adopted by the other.
