[Advaita-l] reg puranas

[Sriram Krishnamurthy]

Dear Sriram,

Bhagavadpada Shankaracharya had composed the Dvadasha Jyotirlinga Stotra
incorporating the 12 Jyotirlingas.

Can anyone give details regarding availability of English translation of Sri
Bhaskararaya Makhin's Sethubandha?

Thanks and Regards,
Sriram
