[world-vedic] When was "the Agastya Samhita" written?

October 22, 1999

My dear kailash Srivatsa:

Namaste, HARE KRISHNA!, let TRY OF ANSWER ABOUT YOUR QUESTION. Yes the

Agatsya samhita, is a book of the pancharatra vaisnava school that date

before of puranic compilation. But by the dostortion of British scholars,

the modern wensters Indologist believe very recent dates.,around 8 century D

A, but the Mahabharata and the Vedanta-sutra make references about them. The

Agatsyas were a dynasty of brahmans, and probably the author of this samhita

was the same Agatsya sage that appear in the Bhagavatam, one comtemporany of

Lord Krishna, because in this book makes reference to the Krsna worship in

the Temple. Probably, was compiler after of Mausala lila of Krishna, due

that the Krishna worship was stated by Vajranabha yadava king, the son of

Anirudha the great son of Lord Krishna, in all India.
