Other Works
Two literary works are attributed to Pāṇini, though they are now lost.
- Jāmbavati Vijaya is a lost work cited by one Rajashekhar in Jahlana's Sukti Muktāvalī. A fragment is to be found in Ramayukta's commentary on Namalinganushasana. From the title it may be inferred that the work dealt with Krishna's winning of Jambavati in the underworld as his bride. Rajashekhara in Jahlana's Sukti Muktāvalī:
- नमः पाणिनये तस्मै यस्मादाविर भूदिह ।
- आदौ व्याकरणं काव्यमनु जाम्बवतीजयम् ॥
- namaḥ pāṇinaye tasmai yasmādāvira bhūdiha ।
- ādau vyākaraṇaṃ kāvyamanu jāmbavatījayam ॥
- Ascribed to Pāṇini, Pātāla Vijaya is a lost work cited by Namisadhu in his commentary on Kavyalankara of Rudrata.

Famous quotes containing the word works:
“I divide all literary works into two categories: Those I like and those I don’t like. No other criterion exists for me.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“Separatism of any kind promotes marginalization of those unwilling to grapple with the whole body of knowledge and creative works available to others. This is true of black students who do not want to read works by white writers, of female students of any race who do not want to read books by men, and of white students who only want to read works by white writers.”
—bell hooks (b. 1955)
