(Controversy about the authorship of
Sarasvata Text)

flourished in the 13th cent., is known by the name Sarasvataprakriya, which has remained as a text book on grammar
to the present day in some parts of India. This Prakriya is
popularly known as Sarasvata-vyakarayam. The technical
terms in this grammar are the current popular ones.
Saini R. S. in his Post-Paninan systems of Sanskrit
grammar (P 182) gives the list of the commentators
Narendracarya ascribing strongly the authorship of
the Sarasvata aphorisms to Narendracarya and not to AS,
says that the word pm indicates the making of this grammar
perfect by AS. This makes clear that NC is the Sutrakara
and AS is the Prakriyakara.2
CK explaining the figure of speech revealed in the
name of AS, gives the information that he was a monk. He
is the one whose form or nature itself is the knowledge or
experience.3

candrika,
Mahopadhyaya Vinayasagara (16th - 17th cent.) plays
an important in the Sarasvata school. He has written
Bhojavyakaranam to teach king Baramallas son
Bhojamalla (with his name the more gets the title). He fol
lows As folly in keeping the 03 parts impact, though his
commentary is in 2030 verses. The verses incorporates not
only the Sarasvata aphorisms, explanation and the
illustrations, but also various discussions.
More over M. Vinayasagara has composed the work
called Vidvaddcin tamani containing the sequential order
of NCs Sarasvata aphorisms in the form of 126 verses.
Jinacandra (1850 AD) has as a matter of fact written
Siddhantaratnika as Siddhantaratnam. The work is a sort
of a handbook of Sanskrit grammar and hence the work
contains short but sweet explanations of the Sarasvata
aphorisms. He incorporates the utmost necessary statements
of AS and even CK. He is the second in the tradition after
CK who enlists the meta-roles (paribhas a) in an inde
pendent chapter, ch.02.
Thus the above discussion points out salient features
of the style of AS and the characteristics of his Sdrasvataprakriya along with the indebtedness of his successors.
Conclusion
The above discussion leads to the following points :
01. AS is the commentator (not the author) of the
Sarasvata aphorisms authorized by NC (10th cent.).
