Dear colleagues,
We are all familiar with the diagram of the vāstupuruṣa (image attached from Volwahsen 1969). Does anyone know whether this image/diagram is found in any manuscripts of the Bṛhatsamhitā (or another work?) or whether this is a modern drawing (perhaps by Kramrisch)? If this image occurs on manuscripts, can anyone tell me the date(s) of such manuscripts or any other information on them?
Any pointer would be welcome.
Many thanks,
Dagmar Wujastyk
