1754 A DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE OP No. 2470. GETTHAE:. PURUSARTHASUDHANIDHIE. Substance, paper. Size, 134 x 81 inches. Pages, 505. Lines, 16 on a page. Character, Devanagart, Condition, good. Appear. ance, old. Completo, but imperfect. This MS. is a copy of the one doscribed under the next number. The work contains four Skandhas: ET FPT, Adhyayas 1 to 34 ; 372TFFT, Adhyayas 1 to 23; 574 Fret, Adhyayas 1 to 14; 199 Fret, Adhyayas 1 to 19. This is a compilation from the Puranas classified under the heads of the four objects of human pursuit. Bukka, having requested his minister Madhava to instruct him about the objects of human pursuit in the words of Vyasa as found in the Puranas and the Mahabbarata, Madhava directed his younger brother to quote and explain to the king the various extracts from the Puranas about dharma, artha, kAma and mokSa. Sayana is des. cribed herein as the younger brother of Madhava and as the expounder of the work composed by Madbava. But at the end Madhava himself is spoken of as the person who instructed the king. The worth of this work cannot be over-estimated. From the miscellaneous mass of the Puranas much useful and important information is culled and collected in this work, which is given almost in the very words of the Puranas.
