Omens in Medieval Karnataka
| Title: | Omens in Medieval Karnataka | | Author: | N. Nandishwara | | Publication: | Itiasa Darshana / Karnataka Itihasa Academy, Bangalore | | Enumeration: | Vol 17, 2002 | | Abstract: | Since ancient times omen, one of the popular branch of astrology has passed on to us. There is lot of writings on this subject, right from Vashishta of the Epic period to Varahamihira author of Brihatsamhita., Chaunadaraya who wrote Lokopakara, Basavaraja’s Shivatatvaratnakara and many more works. The author has listed different types of omens such as omens of birds, animals, parts of body, sounds, sneeze etc. which may refer to good or bad omens. This belief in omens was very strong which apparently throws light on the emotional aspect of our ancestors.
