Greg - I am not sure it is available here. I got it long time ago from the

Vedanta books store in Bangalore, in fact I got most of my books from

there. May be others know about the source here. There use to be a book

store list that Sanskrit Digest monitor, Nandu Abhyankar, used to maintain.

If I find the list I will post it.

 

Frankly Advaita Siddhi is very difficult to read and understand, and the

traslation made things even worse - Personally I recommend only to those

who are very keen in understanding the intricate logical grounds used to

dismiss the objectors arguments against advaita. Otherwise study of simple

texts such as Atma Bhodha, VivekachuuDaamani, Upadesha sahasri, Panchadasi,

and of course B.G are the best.

 

I must include of course Bhagavaan Ramana's two texts - Upadesha saara and

Sat Darshan and Lakshmidhara Kavi's text - Adviata Makaranda. Many of these

texts are avialable through Chinmaya Mission tristate center in

Philadelphia.

 

One can get lost in this logic as Allen rightly cautions, if one loose

sight of the vision of vedanta, and fail to pursue to go beyond the logic

and the analysis.

 

Hari Om!

I'd appreciate it.

This is exactly what I was looking for; have read the others many many times!

I just tried ordering it "special order" status from amazon.com, no

guarantee it will be available. FYI, here is the listing, hope it's the

right thing!

 

Advaita-Siddhih : Sections on Mithyatva (Icpr Translation of Indian

Philosophical Classics). By Madhusudana Sarasvati

 

We'll see if they can get it.
