Is this from his translation of taittirIya upanishad with commentaries?

Yes.

outmoded, and may be difficult to understand today. Sometimes, he also
uses inexact translations, perhaps to render things more easily in
English.

I seemed to get that feeling too.

I'm puzzled why you refer to ghaTa and ghaTadeSa (ghaTAkASa??) here.

Reply:
The reason is that my understanding/analysis is itself clouded.  I am not
very clear/confident on the analysis of the following:

1.  Relationship between the existence of the objective world and the
perception of these objects by the knower - their sequence, their process,
their dependence (if at all).  I have some understanding, but not enough
(not to ask the above question-:))

2.  Whatever I have read seems to make sense only in an intellectual sense,
but I am not able to feel it happening in me ie., the process of perceiving
the objects is still one single act in my experience, I cannot feel the
sub-parts (as described in whatever books I have read).  So I seem to have
to constantly refer, as the knowledge is still not mine !!

famous vedAntaparibhAshA and vedAntasAra are highly recommended.

Do these books deal about the question I have asked above ?
