Puruṣārthasudhānidhi, a commentary on the Brahma Sūtra

Contents

Language(s): Sanskrit

Author: Jñānendrasvāmin (pupil of Vāsudevendra Yogīndra)
Title: Puruṣārthasudhānidhi, a commentary on the Brahma Sūtra
Incipit: athāto brahmajijñāsā|atha sādhanacatuṣṭayasaṃpatyanantaraṃ kutaḥ|
ff. 1v-1v

Pāda I of Adhyāya I ends fol.12v: iti śrīmatparamahaṃsaparivrājakācāryyavāsudevendrasvāmiviracitepurūṣārtthasudhānidhau prathamasyāddhyāyasya prathamaḥ pādaḥ| fol.105; P.III, fol.131b; P.IV,fol.141b. It is followed by the same line as at the beginning of the MS., but it is not continued.

Pāda I of Adhyāya III begins fol.1 of the second part of the MS.; it ends fol.15; P.II ends fol.35; the Adhyāya is incomplete, there being only a scarp of writing after fol.54.

Imperfect, inaccurate text. There are marked a few lacunae.

The ascription to the teacher of the pupil's work is similar to that of the Tattvabodha (Madras Catal., ix.3419, 3420). A similar work to this (not identical) by Prajñānanda is mentioned in the Madras Triennial Catal., 1910-11 to 1912-13, i.594.
