Shree Subramanian I am not writing on behalf of Ravi but I am sure he will not disagree. Your discussion of Tatvabodha will be very much appreciated since the very first suutra in Brahmasuutra refers to the adhikaari aspect which involves the saadhana chatusshhTaya sampatti, and Tatva bodha is classic intorductory book by Adi Shakara and what better place to discuss than in the advita lists. Please do so and send a copy to advaitin list too since there are lot of members who would like to know the definitions of each of these. Hari Om! Sadanandna K.
