Muhūrtacintāmaṇi (मुहूर्तचिन्तामणि) by Rāma Daivajña is the name of an astrological work.—The ritual connected with the setting up of the water clock and its invocation is described, albeit briefly, in an unpublished manuscript entitled Ghaṭikāyantraghaṭanāvidhi. [...] Likewise Govinda Daivajña’s Pīyūṣadhārā commentary (AD 1603) on his paternal uncle Rāma Daivajña’s Muhūrtacintāmaṇi (AD 1600) and Kāśīnātha Upādhye’s Dharmasindhu (AD 1790-91) describe the ritual, but with different wording.

context information

Jyotisha (ज्योतिष, jyotiṣa or jyotish) refers to ‘astronomy’ or “Vedic astrology” and represents the fifth of the six Vedangas (additional sciences to be studied along with the Vedas). Jyotisha concerns itself with the study and prediction of the movements of celestial bodies, in order to calculate the auspicious time for rituals and ceremonies.

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.
