Agastya Samhita
Appearance
Agastya Saṁhitā (literally: "Agastya's Compendium") is the title of several works in Sanskrit text attributed to the ancient sage (rishi) Agastya. For a listing of the various works, and the surviving manuscripts of the work distributed across libraries in India and internationally, see V. Raghavan, New Catalogus Catalogorum (1968--), v.1, pp. 20--22.
One of the works under this title belongs to the corpus of Pāñcarātra Texts (see external link below).
