Deva Samhita

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Deva Samhita or Devasamhita (IAST:Deva Samhitā) (Devanagari: देवसंहिता) is a collection of Sanskrit hymns by Gorakh Sinha during the early medieval period. It propounded the theory of Origin of Jats from Shiva's Locks.[1][2] Devasamhita records an account of the Origin of the Jats in the form of discussion between Shiva and Parvati expressed in shloka (verses).
