The Vīramitrodaya refers to a Hindu law digest written by Mitra Miśra, a brahmin from Gopācala (present day Gwalior) which covers nearly every aspect of Dharmaśāstra.
The work was done at the behest of King Vīrasimhadeva of Orchha during the reign of Akbar.
The Privy Council recorded the text to be a work of high authority regarding Hindu law, revered throughout North India.
[1] Mitamiśra's text includes hundreds of citations from many Hindu religious texts (a large volume of which are either lost or remain unpublished) in which he analyzes and critiques numerous arguments, following which he puts forward his own opinions.
The nibandha titled Viramitrodaya is composed of 22 sections, called prakāśas.
