Comment by the unknown contributor:
Another, quite different version of this text is found in another file
(Gorakṣa-śatakam 1). The numbers of verses found in the other version are given
in brackets. Many of the verses are from Haṭha-yoga-pradīpikā and I would
suspect that those not accounted for are taken from another text.
It is hard to believe that this text is the original Gorakṣa-śataka.
It looks more like someone was compiling verses from GS and HYP and
other sources and never completed his mission.
