This reader contains 701 contiguous received addresses in 18 JSON files. The files are byte-identical to the pinned DharmicData witness, which names the IIT Kanpur Gita Supersite as its source.

The received witness does not identify its 701-verse recension more precisely. Its ODbL license covers the database arrangement and is not itself the publication basis for every modern layer. Publication and search-indexing authorization for every bundled translation and commentary was separately confirmed on 4 August 2026; accordingly, the complete reader is available to search engines.

The Bhagavad-Gītā's narrative home is the Mahābhārata's Bhīṣma-Parva; Vidhyamitra's 18-parva Mahābhārata reader is a separately source-pinned Critical Edition-derived digital witness whose edition boundary remains visible.
