[Advaita-l] Lakshmana Sarma's ocmmentary on Ulladu Narpadu

[Ven Balakrishnan]

HI Venkat-ji

The original is the Tamil version - I pointed you to a recent English translation.  I suspect the Tamil version must be easier to find!

Best wishes,
venkat

So I take recourse to the Sanskrit Version wherever one is available because I am more comfortable with Sanskrit. Thankfully the Sanskrit Version of Ulladu narpadu is available as sat Darshanam with Ulladu Narpadu being the original. I don’t know if you have noticed there are slight variations in details of the Sanskrit version from the Tamil Ulladu Narpadu though the overall sense is the same. Since the Tamil version is Bhagavan’s own composition, in this case I would like to struggle a bit with Tamil and rely on the Tamil Ulladu Narpadu.
