Makaranda Sāriṇī

मकरन्दसारिणी

Makaranda, son of Ānanda, at Kāśī · Epoch 1478 CE · ganita

What this text is

The most popular table set of the saura-pakṣa — pañcāṅga manufacture as tables.

Tithi, nakṣatra, yoga and planetary tables that powered almanac production across North and East India, with dozens of later commentaries.

Its role in this app

Lineage witness for table-based pañcāṅga computation — the practice our drik engine replaces and is measured against historically.
