Similar set of Ragamala Paintings are also found in Sri Tattva-Nidhi. Another important work in this genre is by a Sanskrit scholar and hatha yoga student named Norman Sjoman. His 1996 book "The Yoga Tradition of the Mysore Palace" presents the first English translation of a part of "kautuka nidhi", the "Sritattvanidhi", which includes instructions for and illustrations of 122 postures, illustrated by stylized drawings of a yogini in a topknot and loincloth. Some of these poses—which include handstands, backbends, foot-behind-the-head poses, Lotus variations, and rope exercises—are familiar to modern practitioners (although most of the Sanskrit names are different from the ones they are known by today). But they are far more elaborate than anything depicted in other pre-twentieth-century texts. It also describes the origins of some asanas from a gymnastics exercise manual of the late 19th century, the "Vyayama Dipika". In his 1996 book, Sjoman asserts that the influential yoga teacher Krishnamacharya, who did much to create modern yoga as exercise, was influenced by the Sritattvanidhi, which includes 122 asanas, some possibly based on gymnastics.
