Japanese: ミタークシャラー学派 - ミタークシャラーがくは(英語表記)Mitākṣarā
Mitākṣarā School - Mitākṣarā (English spelling)
One of the two schools of Hindu law in India. A school based on the Mitāksāra, a legal text by Vijñāneśvara, a minister to Vikramaditya VI of the Chalukya dynasty, whose capital was in Kalyana in the Deccan around 1120. This text is a commentary on the Yajnavalkya Code, and while based on the Dharmaśāstra, it examines commentaries from the 8th century onwards to establish a system of legal provisions and social norms suited to Deccan society. This book, considered an authoritative text, had a great influence on later legal texts, and many commentaries were written on it.
