I.G. 51 अष्टाङ्गहृदयसंहिता (शारीरस्थानम्) Aștāngahşdayasamhitā (sārīrasthānam)
by Vagbhata Substance : Country-made paper. Size : 31 x 21 cms, Folios: 1-93+1-94. Lines : 16. Letters : 24. Script : Nāgari. Condition : Fair. Extent: Incomplete.
The manuscript begins from the 1st chapter (Garbhāvakrānt) of the Sārirasthānam, but the end could not be traced from the entire Särirasthānam. It runs upto the concluding chapter i.e. the 6th chapter. (Dūtādivijñāniyaḥ). But after completion of the Śārirasthānam there is a line as "sa gif#T) THRITT वाहटाचार्यस्य कृतावष्टांगहृदयदीपिकायां द्वितिय्य (द्वितीय)स्थानं समासः(प्तम्) 114 foll", which apparently shows that the work is a commentary named Dipikā done by Vägbhata himself. But the statement appears to be incorrect, as the Sārirasthānam actually ends on F.-24a. The rest of the folios have been mentioned as a work on Nidānam. But this Nidānam text does not tally with the Nidānam section of Susrutasamhitā, Carakasamphitā, Mādhavanidānam or Aştāngasamgrahaḥ. Therefore this ‘Nidānam portion might have been copied from some other text. Beginning : uwy.
