Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 I seem to recall I've been told there isn't an English translation. In any case.... I've only been able to google up a copy that's described as 'in Hindi and Sanskrit. " I also found references to two rare books, 1923 and 1950, that are most likely also in Hindi. No doubt that's what you've found too. Parasuramakalpasutra with the comm. 'Vrtti' by Sri Ramesvara, 'Niraksira Viveka' by Param Hans Mishra 'Hans', foreword by Rammurti Sharma, ed. by Vidya Niwas Mishra et al Hardcover Pub.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 I have an e-copy I created. But it is not error free. I am working on it a few pages at a time when I get time. --- On Wed, 9/24/08, msbauju <msbauju wrote: msbauju <msbauju Re: Parasuramam Kalpa sutra Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 1:33 AM You may also be interested in: Understanding Sri Chakra Puja (draft) Sri Amritananda Devipuram, India 1998 http://www.devipura m.com/downloads/ archive_articles /SRIChakraPuja. doc " This is the first attempt that really tries to go into the mysteries of every mantra, and every procedure in the Sri Chakra puja as described in Parashu Rama Kalpa Sutra to convey a deeper understanding of the ritual.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Many thanks to both msbauju and Sankara Menon for your assistance. Yes, I have come across references to the writings from the 1920s-1930s but they are not in english. I have followed the link to Abebooks and have inquired as whether the book cited is in english. I had already looked there and Alibris but had not used the title as a single word and did not access the reference you provided. Thanks for the ISBN. I have been living most free moments with a print copy of Amritananda's commentary since finding it a few months ago. What a gift this exhaustive commentary is to a student without very regular access to one's Guru. Chaitanyananda's books, " Sri Yantra " and the " Blue Book " rendering of Sri Puja into the most complete translation into english I have ever found. He is a disciple of Amritaji and the free sharing of this almost impenetrable system seems to be a hallmark of that sampradaya, opening so many to this complex nut incredibly blissful stream of Goddess worship. Again, thank both of you so very much for your input. Namaste Nadananda / Cliff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Thank you. I've enjoyed some of the other M.P. Pandit books I've read; I'll add this one to my (endless) reading list. , " Austin Alexander " <kalkin108 wrote: > > There is a small book called Bases of Tantra Sadhana by M.P.
