(vi) विवेकचूडामणि- that will be the climax in that it reveals the grave limitations of mortal existence and the sorrows that follow on one side, and the achievements of man wlio has got over his ego, and has, througli his mental and spiritual uplift, brought his Self nearer and nearer to the Supreine Self and to all the joys of one who experiences that stats.
This order would again, better follow the mental make up of the aspirant and his uplift from the mortal existence to the highest immortal existence and realization. The reader can surely be advised to proceed with his study of the works and the highest philosophy of spiritual uplift and be better enlightened.
Again, there is no uniformity in the work regarding one thing. It is not clear as to why the text of वान्तसार, आत्मानात्मविवेक, विवेकचामणि and even the very small चपटपकजरी is not gives along with the translations: The value of the compendium would have gone far higher because most of the readers particularly in India would feel inuch more bencfitted by the text in Sanskrit. No doubt it would liave consumed some 80 pages more. But to work would liave become more authentic and representa: tive thereby.
However, even as it is, the value of the work is there, it cau, very well serve its purpose. We would recommend a study of the compendium to all readers who desire to be calightened regarding the supreme reality and are keen on sublimating their minds and selves by grasping the best and the highest doctrines of Indian philosophy.
