  ABOUT THE BOOK:

The lamentable state of the text as appearing in the two original
Manuscripts (of Varah Mihira) at the disposal of the Authors, was a
lesser problem then the greater disadvantage under which they laboured
with the absence of a Commentary. Commentaries can be hardly done
without in the case of any Sanskrit astronomical work; much less so,
when the text, as that of the Panchasiddhantika describes many mathematical
process more or less diverging from those commonly employed. The Commentary
published in the present volume is an entirely original composition by M.S.
Dvivedi. A mere translation of the text with notes would, indeed, have
sufficed for the European reader; the authors, however, wished to make the
results of their labour acessible to Pandits also who understand no
English. And a full tika giving full demonstrations in the ordinary Hindu
style will, in many cases, be useful to the European student also.

The right hand columns of the text give the emended text; the left hand
columns the text of the better one of our two Manuscripts which the authors
thought advisable to exhibit in extense. Some remarks on the Manuscripts
and the mode of emendation of the text will be found at the end of the
Introduction.

These two original and rare manuscripts were discovered by Prof.
G.Buehler when in change of the search for Sanskrit Manuscripts in parts of
the then Bombay Presidency.ISBN:
