english translation of book "shankara maha manana", which is in kannada

[Krishna Kashyap]

Namaste,

I downloaded this book which is Kannada: "Shankara maha manana". I think this book is an excellent book on Advaita. In a question-and-answer format, he has explained complex concepts in a simple way. However, it is in Kannada and many people do not know Kannada.

Please let me know if this book was translated into English.

here is a list of his English books:

Here is an interesting comment on HH Sacchidanandendra swami ji by Sri Vidyasankar Sundareshan, who incidentally started the Advaita Group, immediately after a conversation on Brihadaranyaka Upanishad ( A 3-way call between myself, Sri VidyaSankar, and Sri Mani Varadarajan. Incidentally, it took place sometime in the year 1986. Not sure. I know the conference call was expensive: probably 5$ per minute. This conversation took place for a couple of hours!!)

It was $1.12 per minute in 1986. I remember perfectly as I used to spend no more than two to three minutes, once a month, calling Bangalore from Hattiesburg, MS.

That is about all I can contribute to this thread.

I guess conference bridges charged a lot higher than 1.12$ per min, which was for 2 party calls. For 3 or more people on a call, private companies offered bridges that were expensive like 4 to 8$ per min

I have heard and perhaps read too that the Holenarsipur version of Advaita is slightly different from that of Sri Bhagavatpaada.

Thanks and regards,
