ON THE ORIGIN OF THE NÅRADA-SMRITI.
BY K. P. JAYASWAL, M.A. (OXON.)., BABBISTER-AT-LAW. I should like to draw the attention of orientalists who are interested in the study of the Smpitis, to one of the sources of the Narada-emrit. I brought out the point in the course of a series of articles discussing the connection between the Artha-ádstra and the Dharma-idotras.
The procedure law of the Narada-smriti is greatly based on the Dharmasthiya book of the Artha-sástra of Kautilyn. In the preface the smriti avows that it is based on Manu, while it, seldom follows the Code of Manu. The importance of the Artha-sdstra in Hindu legal history is so very considerable that we shall be justified in treating the Book on Law (Dharmasthiya) as a part of the permanent logal system of the Hindus. The Manava-dharma-kdatral criticises it, the Yâjāavalkya? borrows from it, and the Naradasmriti adopts its purely secular treatment and its principles of procedure law.
