The Tattvabindu of Vacaspatimisra with the commentary called Tattva-vibhavana of Paramesvara II of Payyur Bhattamana. This edition of Vacaspatimisra`s Tattvabindu and of its commentary Tattvavibhdvana by Paramesvara II is based on (1) a transcript of a manuscript Tattvavibhavand preserved in the Madras Government Oriental Manuscripts Library, and (2) the Benares Edition of the Tattvabindu. Since the commentator has made it a rule to quote the full text by parts before commenting on it Vacaspatimisra`s Tattvabindu is a short and highly difficult text. In his characteristically rhythmic and stately diction, Vacaspatimisra reviews in the Tattvabindu, the Vaiyakarana doctrine of Sphota, mainly as expounded by Bhartrhari and Mandanamisra, and amplifies and reaffirms Kumarila`s criticism of Sphota doctrine. The elaborate and scholarly introduction, giving a historical sketch of the Mlmarhsa literature, and the thoroughgoing analysis of the Tattvabindu, in English, which the learned editor has prefixed to his edition of the work.
