¶Ù±ð±¹²¹±ô²¹²õ³¾á¹›t¾± (देवलसà¥à¤®à¥ƒà¤¤à¤¿) is the name of a lost work dealing with DharmaÅ›Ästra authored by Devala—one of the most famous personalities in the ancient Sanskrit literature renowned as a Vedic Seer and a highly celebrated sage.—Unfortunately, the genuine original and complete work on DharmaÅ›Ästra of such a great Smá¹›tikÄra, has become extinct, in the course of time. There is a metrical Smá¹›ti ascribed to Devala, in the printed collections of ²õ³¾á¹›t¾±²õ. It contains merely ninety verses that treat the subject of purification of persons, associated with Mlecchas. P. V. Kane remarks, “This appears to be a late compilationâ€�. Hence it is evident that it is a fragmentary and a later work, ascribed to Devala.
