He also compiled a Mantrānukramaṇi or index of the Mantras used in the rituals. He then proceeded in this work (prayogādarśa) to explain them by quoting from the Sūtras and Smṛtis." Also it has been mentioned on the same page that there are two parts of this prayogādarśa viz. pūrvaprayoga and aparaprayoga.
