Prabodha Candrodaya

Contains all six acts of the Sanskrit play written by Kṛṣṇa Miśra in the 11th century (‘Rise of the Moon of Knowledge’), which depicts the battle in the mind of Puruṣa between Mahāmoha (‘great delusion’) and Viveka (‘discrimination), through the clash between Vedic and non-Vedic traditions, and between figures like ahaṃkāra (ego), krodha (anger) and śānti (peace). There are extensive marginal and interlinear notes of an explanatory character. The script combines Newari and Devanagari characters.
