The Todarnanda is a Sanskrit encyclopedic work of civil and religious law, astronomy, medicine and philosophy. The work was compiled from 1572-1589 under the patronage of Raja Todar Mal, a Tandon Khatri who was the Finance Minister of the Mughal Empire under the reign of Emperor Akbar.[1] The work is made up of 80,000 verses and is equivalent to the Mahabharata in size.[2]
