I intend to work about curses, enchantments and miracles in the Hindu
and

Muslim context in ancient India, particularly in the medieval times.
In

consideration of the extent of the literary sources, which can hardly
be

sifted through by myself I'd be grateful for any hint to texts,
passages

etc. dealing with the above mentioned subjects, no matter published in

Sanskrit only. Thank you for any efforts.



The two following articles by me deal with the curse in Hindi
literature.  The notes will refer you to further
material.<bold><fontfamily><param>South_Asia_Roman</param>
