1) 󲹰屹Ჹṃh (भरद्वाजसंहित�) is the name of an ancient Pāñcarātra Saṃhitā mentioned in the 辱ñᲹṃh: a Pāñcarātra work consisting of 1550 verses dealing with a variety of topics such as worship in a temple, choosing an Ācārya, architecture, town-planning and iconography.—For the list of works, see chapter 1, verses 14b-27. The list [including 󲹰屹Ჹṃh] was said to have comprised �108� titles, these, different ṃh named after different manifestations of the Lord or different teachers.

4) 屹Ჹṃh (भारद्वाजसंहिता) is also mentioned in the ʳܰṣoٳٲṃh: a Pāñcarātra text consisting of more than 1800 verses devoted to temple-building and the practical concerns of the Pāñcarātra priestly community.

屹Ჹṃh (भारद्वाजसंहिता) is the name of various Pāñcarātra Āgama texts.—There are to be distinguished two texts—both products of the Pāñcarātra school—with identical titles. The printed text is a four-chapter devotional piece on prapatti. The second is a short document, an unpublished manuscript tradition, that is more typical—albeit in truncated form—of Pāñcarātra works. It may alternatively be called “屹�-kaṇva-saṃhitā�.

The “printed� 屹Ჹṃh is is a short (400 śǰ첹) inspirational work of four chapters devoted to outlining and eulogizing the behavior of a pious Śrī-vaiṣṇava devotee. It has probably been circulated—and widely circulated, if the number of editions is any indication as a layman’s manual. In it prapatti, both as an attitude and as a liturgical sacrament, is given marked attention. A suggestion is made in the opening lines that this work may once have formed part of a larger, more comprehensive text.

The “屹�-kaṇva-saṃhitā� is divided into ten or more chapters and comprises some 230 śǰ첹. It is mainly concerned with providing a temple, once it is built, with properly consecrated icons—although all the chapters are brief and afford no more than a cursory review of salient features of , پṣṭ and ū-routines. The narrative framework is a dialogue between Kaṇva and Bharadvāja.

屹Ჹṃh (भारद्वाजसंहिता) or simply 屹Ჹ is the name of a Vaiṣṇava Āgama scripture, classified as a ٳٱ첹 type of the Muniprokta group of Pāñcarātra Āgamas. The ṣṇ岵 represent one of the three classes of (traditionally communicated wisdom).—Texts of the Pāñcara Āgamas are divided in to two sects. It is believed that Lord Vāsudeva revealed the first group of texts which are called Divya and the next group is called Muniprokta which are further divided in to three viz. a. Sāttvika (e.g., 屹Ჹṃh-saṃhitā). b. Rājasa. c. Tāmasa.
