The great Acharya Shri Krishna composed this Grantha in 11th century A.D. Thereafter the book gained unequalled admiration and was quoted in later compositions like Prashnamarg, Vidhyamadhaviyam and Rudra's commentary on Vrihad Jataka. The Malayalam literary composition like unniyaccicaritam carries citation from this great grantha. The earliest mention can be cited from Shri Govinda Bhattatiri of talakkulam (a.d. 1237-95) who quoted it frequently. Shri Vishnu the son of Madhavaacharya has written the Sanskrit commentary caturasundari, which is included in this work. Sriyut Puliyur Purusottam nambudiri wrote the Malayalam commentary. NOTE: Translation from Caturasundari and verses from Jinendramala, Vrihad jataka, Bhuvan deepika, Prasna Tantra, Vidhyamadhaviyam, Daivagya Bharnam, Saravali, Jataka Parijat, Dasadhyayi, Kevalgyanprasnacoodamani, aroodhaphal and other important Jyotisha Granthas
