Details: The Smrti of Parasara must have been an ancient one since Yajnavalkya has mentioned him along the ancient writers. But it is doubtful whether we possess the ancient work or probably a recast or it. The extant Parasarasmrti is divided into twelve chapters and contains according to the last verse only 592 verses. It deals only with Acara and Prayascitta. Madhava has introduced this voluminous gloss on Vyavahara, which forms about a fourth of his extensive gloss, in an indirect way by regarding Vyavahara as a part of the duties of Kshatriyas on which the Parasarasmrti has something to say. The original smriti of Parasara contains no verses on Vyavahara but Maddhavacharya hangs on this slender peg of a single verse of Parasara calling upon the King to rule his subjects with justice. The Parasara Madhyaviya is a work of authority on modern Hindu law in Southern India.
