Bālāvabodha (बालावबोध) by Merusundra is the name of a commentary on the Vṛttaratnākara of Kedārabhaṭṭa (C. 950-1050 C.E.), who was a celebrated author in Sanskrit prosody. The Vṛttaratnākara is considered as most popular work in Sanskrit prosody, because of its rich and number of commentaries.

Bālāvabodha (बालावबोध) is a commentary on the Kālidāsa’s Raghuvaṃśa by Paṇḍita Janārdana.—The Bālāvabodha (in Sanskrit) is included in the collection of manuscripts at the ‘Vincenzo Joppi’ library, collected by Luigi Pio Tessitori during his visit to Rajasthan between 1914 and 1919.—The commentator provides the full text of Kālidāsa’s verses only for the very first one. Otherwise he includes the original words within the commenting sentence. The initial stanza is commented at length and the commentator even proposes his own opinion on the identity of the deities addressed in the poet’s homage, defending the idea that they are Hari and Hara. Otherwise, his exegesis is generally brief, providing the syntactical connections, synonyms and minimal explanations of a level adequate for a Bālāvabodha.

context information

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), 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.
