(a) Vangmaya dhuramdharudun I. 24.
Pampa's Adi Purana VIII, p. 61, has reference to 'vangmaya.' An ancient division of the arts and sciences is given in this passage in which this word occurs. Three divisions of' vangmaya'. which I take it to be 'Literary art' are' "mentioned (1) Padavidya, (2) Chamdo vichit, (3) Alamkara.
