References for the Appearance of Sacinandana Gaurahari

[Guest guest]

Thank you for the answer. I am specifically interested in knowing when the

respective shastras have been written. Are they parts of the original body

of Vedic literature, or further additions? Especially the two tantras.

These are Sakti Tantras. Both seem to have some statements on the

superiority of Krishna worship.

 

> > (8) From the Ananta-samhita:

 

This, also known as the S'ea Samhita, is P€ñcar€tra €gama... one of the

p€ñcar€tra corpus generally known collectively among Gaudiya vaisnavas as

the N€rada P€ñcar€tra.

 

I have some publication information for these texts if anyone is seriously

interested. None have been translated into English. They are Sanskrit in

Bengali, Oriya, and Devanagari scripts.
