The only edition of this text I am aware of was published in Pune in 1924-25 as the No.25 of the AnandASrama Sanskrit Series, along with MAdhava's commentary TAtparyadIpikA. By the way, it is a book almost impossible to handle without seriously damaging it, like all the old editions of the AnandASrama. To read it means to destroy it. My copy is precisely half-destroyed. With regards, Raffaele Torella ================================================ http://davidgodman.org/rteach/atiasrami1.shtml The Suta Samhita, which is part of the Skanda Purana, is little read nowadays, but in ancient times it had enormous authority and influence. In an introduction to an edition of this work that Bhagavan kept for reference, the editor notes that there is a tradition that Adi-Sankaracharya read the Suta Samhita eighteen times before he began work on his famous commentaries. & #65533; ============================================== Sutasamhita with Tatparya Dipika/Madhavachaya.
