IO SAN 2345b

Svapnacintāmaṇi

Contents

Language(s): Sanskrit

Title: Svapnacintāmaṇi

A Jaina (?) treatise on the interpretation of dreams.

The author is the son of Durlabharāja.

A lithographical edition of this little work (of which an incomplete copy is in the India Office Library) was published in India in 1848, another printed edition in Ratnagiri, in 1873. The text seems to be identical in the two editions but they are accompanied by different marāṭhī commentaries. In the latter edition, the text consists of two chapters (adhyāyas), treating of lucky and unlucky dreams, and consisting of 150 and 162 ślokas respectively. Our Ms has 166 verses in part II., and at least 153 in part I., fol.15 terminating at the end of the 3rd pāda of v. 153 (150 eds.) with śubhaṃ tyaktvā (muktvā eds.), aftet which two leaves are missing. the missing leaves of the Ms. contained I., 71-120r (119 in eds); II., 1-20r (16 in eds.) 31v-54 (27v-50 eds.)

For another Ms. see Rāj. Mitra, Bikaner Cat., p.340.
