Pancaratra (worship of N膩r膩ya峁嘺)
Source: Wisdom Library: Pancaratra (Samhita list)1) 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 (啶堗ざ啷嵿さ啶班じ啶傕す啶苦い啶�) is the name of an ancient P膩帽car膩tra Sa峁僪it膩 mentioned in the 笔补诲尘补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻: the most widely followed of Sa峁僪it膩 covering the entire range of concerns of P膩帽car膩tra doctrine and practice (i.e., the four-fold formulation of subject matter鈥�箩帽腻苍补, yoga, 办谤颈测腻 and 肠补谤测腻) consisting of roughly 9000 verses.鈥擺Cf. J帽膩nap膩da chapter 1, verses 99-114]鈥擣irst is explained the folly of following more than one Sa峁僪it膩 for a single series of rituals. Then the names of the 108 Tantras of the P膩帽car膩tra corpus are named [e.g., 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻]. Even those who repeat these 108 titles will gain salvation.

3) 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 (啶堗ざ啷嵿さ啶班じ啶傕す啶苦い啶�) is also mentioned in the 笔耻谤耻峁迟迟补尘补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻: a P膩帽car膩tra text consisting of more than 1800 verses devoted to temple-building and the practical concerns of the P膩帽car膩tra priestly community.
4) 滨艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 (啶囙ざ啷嵿さ啶班じ啶傕す啶苦い啶�) is also mentioned in the 叠丑腻谤补诲惫腻箩补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 or 鈥淏h膩radv膩ja-ka峁噕a-sa峁僪it膩鈥�: a P膩帽car膩tra text comprising some 230 艣濒辞办补蝉 mainly concerned with basic details concerning temple construction and icon consecration.

: archive.org: Isvara Samhita Vol 1莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 (啶堗ざ啷嵿さ啶班じ啶傕す啶苦い啶�) is an important text of the P膩帽car膩tra School and is followed meticulously for conduction of daily 辫奴箩腻 ceremony and performances of various religious festivals in the N膩r膩ya峁嘺sv膩mi temple of Melkote. It can safely be dated to 8th-9th Century at least on the basis of its reference in the 膧gama Pr膩m膩峁噛a of 艢r墨 Y膩mun膩c膩rya. It is supposed to be a simpler and smaller version of the older S膩tvat膩sa峁僪it膩 of this school which is the earliest available work of P膩帽car膩tra and is considered as one of three ratnas, (Jewels), along with Pau峁ara- and Jaya Sa峁僪it膩s. In 25 long 补诲丑测腻测补蝉 the 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 describes in great details the rites, rituals and ceremonies taking place (or ought to take place) in a Vai峁ａ箛ava temple.
: archive.org: Catalogue of Pancaratra Agama Texts莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 (啶堗ざ啷嵿さ啶班じ啶傕す啶苦い啶�) is the name of various P膩帽car膩tra 膧gama texts.鈥擳here are two works鈥攂oth P膩帽car膩tra documents鈥攖o be distinguished. The printed 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻, a work of 25 chapters, has gone through two editions and a third one is scheduled for release soon. The second 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 is a text surviving in part only and represented by a version preserved at the Oriental Institute, Baroda; it is a brief, 14-chapter work devoted to the mantra addressed to Narasi峁僪a.
The 鈥減rinted鈥� 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 is one of the older 蝉补峁僪颈迟腻蝉, and one that is justifiably popular as a reference manual. Its encyclopaedic scope, covering most subjects of concern to P膩帽car膩tra priests. [...] Its origin is South India and, indeed, it may have been composed in the Melkote area where it is still closely connected with the local temple traditions of worship. It is a relatively long work, totalling almost 8200 艣濒辞办补蝉. The exposition for the most part follows an inner logic, and the 25 medium-to-long chapters that come to us today may be divided into three major sections鈥攔elating to nitya, naimittika and 办腻尘测补 concerns鈥攚ith a fourth section appended expanding on certain details. [...] The 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 is popularly considered to be derivative of the S膩ttvatasa峁僪it膩鈥攐ne of the 鈥淭hree Gems鈥� along with the Pau峁arasa峁僪it膩 and Jay膩khyasa峁僪it膩.鈥擬anuscripts include: (1) Mysore, Sadvidya Press, 1890; (2) Conjeevaram, Sudarsana Press, 1923; (3) Tirupati, Kendriya Sanskrit Vidyapeetha.
The 鈥淏aroda edition鈥� 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 is a relatively short and apparently incomplete work of some 640 艣濒辞办补蝉 divided into 14 chapters and may alternatively be called 鈥淣峁泂i峁僪akalpa鈥� and 鈥溑歳墨sudar艣anan峁泂i峁僪akalpa鈥�. It is written in the form of a dialogue between 莫艣惫补谤补 and P膩rvat墨. The most noteworthy facet of the work is its extreme 鈥�prayogic鈥� tendency. By the proper application of the 鈥淣峁泂i峁僪amantra鈥� enemies may be overcome, diseases cured, death circumvented, etc. Even the 鈥淓vil Eye鈥� may be averted. While 鈥�prayogic鈥� passages are certainly encountered in other P膩帽car膩tra works, the blatant tone of this work sets it apart from the mainstream of the P膩帽car膩tra literature.

The 惫补颈峁ａ箛补惫腻驳补尘补蝉 represent one of the three classes of 腻驳补尘补蝉 (traditionally communicated wisdom).鈥擳exts of the P膩帽cara 膧gamas are divided in to two sects. It is believed that Lord V膩sudeva 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. S膩ttvika (e.g., 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻-sa峁僪it膩). b. R膩jasa. c. T膩masa.

The 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 is said to be a derivative of the S膩ttvatasa峁僪it膩 which is the very essence of the Bh膩gavata Pur膩峁嘺. In all these works, practical injunctions and rituals are interspersed with theological discussions. The S膩ttvatasa峁僪it膩 forms the basis for the worship in the Tirun膩r膩ya峁嘺 temple in Melkote (Cf. 莫艣惫补谤补蝉补峁僪颈迟腻 I.67).
Pancaratra (啶ぞ啶炧啶氞ぐ啶距い啷嵿ぐ, p膩帽car膩tra) represents a tradition of Hinduism where Narayana is revered and worshipped. Closeley related to Vaishnavism, the Pancaratra literature includes various Agamas and tantras incorporating many Vaishnava philosophies.

Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
