Sanskrit Text and English Translation
By Mr, S.VENKATARAMANAN B. A.
Contents.—Hymn to Hari; The Ten- Versed Hymn; Hyma to Dakshinamurti; Direct Realisation; The Century of Verses; Knowledge of Self; Commentary on the Text; Definition of cue's own Self.
Preface.—The main object of this publication is to present, in simple English, some of the works of Sri Sankaraeharya in which he tried to expound, in a popular style, the philosophy of the non-dualistic Vedanta of which he was the well-known founder. With this view the present translation has been rendered free of technical words and phrases. It is hoped that the juxtaposition of the Sanskrit test and the English translation will serve the double object of enabling the student of Sanskrit to understand the text better and to correct, by a reference to the text, any defect; of expression in the translation as an inevitable result of the attempt to garb it! a popular style. To those that have had no training in metaphysics or dialectics and have neither the leisure nor the capacity to read the original standard works of Sankara, a publication of this kind should be specially helpful for a proper understanding of the broad outline of Baukara's philosophy of non-dualism.
