अणुभाष्य (महाप्रभु वल्लभाचार्य - शुद्धाद्वैत वेदान्त ब्रह्मसूत्र महाभाष्य प्रकाश टीका सहित)

EDITORS' NOTE. The publication of this great work, the Anu Bhashya together with the commentary Prakasha thereon by Shri Purushottamaji, the erudite Acharya of Vallabha Sampradaya, and the Rashmi on both of these by Goswami Shri Gopeshvarji, who flourished in the nineteenth century and who is known to have written various books and commentaries on Shuddha- dwaita Philosophy and allied subjects, was undertaken under the auspices of the Trust of the Late Sheth Gōrdhandas Soondardas Mulji Jetha, by Mr. Mulchandra Tulsidas Telivalla. He began to publish these from the Third Adhyaya of Anu Bhashya, and published in February 1926, the First Pada of the said Adhyaya. The reader is referred to the introduction of the said Pada in which a short history is given of the author and the literature on the Anu Bhashya available in the Shuddhadwaita Sampradaya. He published the Second and Third Padas of the Third Adhyaya, and the reader is referred to the Preface of the Third Pada published on 27-4-1927, in which is established the connection of Shri Krishnachandraji with the great work. By the impenetrable will of God, the Editor, Mr. Telivalla, died suddenly on 26-6-1927, to the utter dismay and consternation of us, his friends and collaborators. Through extreme diffidence, and with the consent of the Trustees of Sheth Gordhandas Soondardas Trust, we took upon ourselves to continue the work left incomplete by our colleague. We are thankful to the Almighty for removing all difficulties and putting facilities in our way of completing this stupendous task. In the middle of the task, we were deprived of the help of one of our colleagues, the late Mr. Gordhandas Pragji of the Editorial Staff of the Bomtay Samachar. His enthusiasm and rigidity of purpose are still present in our minds. We may frankly mention that Shastri Kalyanji Kanji of Gondal has been chiefly instumental in getting the work carried through the Press. He deserves our thanks, and the Sampradaya will always remain indebted to him for this. It was our intention to provide the reader with the comparative views of the different Bhashyakaras on the various Adhikaranas of the Brahma Sutras, which have been so lucidly given by Goswami Shri Purushottamaji, and with a view to have them in the Introduction to this publication, we requested Prof. G. H. Bhatt, M. A., Professor of Sanskrit in the Baroda
