Śrīsarvopaniṣat (श्रीसर्वोपनिषत्) is the name of a text mentioned in a colophon of another text headed as Haṭhayogamañjarī, representing an 18th-century text on Haṭhayoga.—Its name in the published edition is not entirely certain according to the colophons. The text begins with the heading Haṭhayogamañjarī. However, the second chapter’s colophon refers to the Jogīcintāmaṇi of Śrīsahajānandanātha, the third chapter’s colophon to the Śrīsarvopaniṣat, and the final colophon to the Gorakhajogamañjarī. The text could be a composite work consisting of summaries or extracts of different texts.
