Source: Shodhganga: Kasyapa Samhita—Text on Visha Chikitsa (v)Jñānasaṃhitā (ज्ञानसंहिता) is the name of an ancient Vaikhānasa Āgama text attributed to Marīci.—There are nine sages [e.g., Bhṛgu] who expounded the Vaikhānasa canon after direct instruction from the Lord. The Vimānārcanakalpa of Marīci mentions thirteen works attributed to Bhṛgu like Khilatantra, Puratantra, Citrādhikāra, Kriyādhikāra, Arcanādhikāra, and Khilādhikāra. [...] The set of eight Saṃhitās (one lakh eighty-four thousand granthas) composed by sage Marīci are Jaya, Ānanda, Saṃjñāna, Vīra, Vijaya, Vijita, Vimala and Jñānasaṃhitā. The lists vary according to some scholars.
Vaishnava (वैष्णव, vaiṣṇava) or vaishnavism (vaiṣṇavism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (‘ten avatars of Vishnu’).
