Dear Pranav,

Thanks for sharing the information about this Ms. Earlier I came across a
printed version of this commentary here
<https://archive.org/details/lTxD_ashtavakra-gita-with-tika-by-vishveshvar-very-old-mumukshu-bhavan-collection/mode/2up>.
But given the popularity of the *Aṣṭāvakra Gītā*, this commentary did not
come across as pedagogically robust. It is hard for me to believe that this
text did not attract the attention of erudite Sanskrit commentators
in pre-modern South Asia. I will keep my eyes open. Thanks. Regards.

Mrinal
