Wrote the late Brahmachârî Bawa, a Yogî of great renown and holiness: “Extensive works on ’Ashtar Vidiâ’ and such other sciences were at different times compiled in the languages of the times from the Sanskrit originals. But they, together with the Sanskrit originals, were lost at the time of the partial deluge of our county.” (The Theosophist, June, 1880, “Some Things the Âryans Knew.”) For Agnyastra, see Wilson’s Specimens of the Hindû Theatre, i. 297.
