Sanskrit book stores in Bangalore

[Mohan K.V]

Hello, 

 Please let me know if you know of any good bookstores in Bangalore that stock Sanskrit books (esp. classics). I've tried some (Sapna, Landmark, etc.) but they don't seem to be interested.

Thanks,

Mohan

A well-known bookstore is called the "Vedanta book store" opposite Uma
theatre on Bull temple road.
I don't think it is affiliated to Ramakrishna Ashram (in spite of its
name being close).

Namaste.
When you go to Sapna Book house, Landmark or any bookstore , please ask for Sanskrit books. Let the bookstall owner feel that there is a great demand for Sanskrit books.
Sanskrit propagation at no cost -:) and if many people ask, who knows the guy might stack it.
He is a business man and he just wants to procure wealth. Let him do it by serving the cause of Sanskrit.

Besides Vedanta Bookhouse in Bull temple road, there is Vandana Book house in N.R.Colony , Motilal Banarasidas in  fourth block- Jayanagar-Shopping complex ,  Gitapress bookstall in a platform in Bangalore Central railway station  and ofcourse Samskrita Bharati,'Aksharam'
8'th cross, Girinagar-2'nd phase, Bangalore- 560 085 Tel: 080-2672 1052

Vedanta Book store is not on Bull Temple Road but on a smaller road. The address is given below. It's beside Uma Talkies - that's still the best identification. It's arguably the best Sanskrit bookstore in the south. Also, the people are rather friendly.

 

The store that's on the road beside Uma Talkies is the Puja, sahasranama, agarbatti type book store. Behind in the lane is the bigger store which has all the Sanskrit kavya, alankara, vedanta, nyaya, vyakarana books. The pleasant surprise about this store is there's plenty of space so you can sit down and browse before deciding to buy a book.

 
Also, they have plenty of those recent publications from Delhi,Haryana, Varanasi etc which are meant for Hindi speaking students. Arguably some of these books are much better than the outdated British period books in English. They also have plenty of books for Kannada speaking students.

 

One thing you may want to think about; if you want them to mail books to you. Please weigh the books and pay them the postage charges and make sure that you leave a phone number for them to contact you in case the postage is not, for some reason, adequate.

 

The address:

 

Vedanta Book House

 

92, 6th Main, Appu Rao Road
Chamrajpet, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560018, India
080 26507590

Digital Library of India (DLI) is perhaps the largest repository of Sanskrit books!   Shri Prabhu R. has developed a new engine to facilitate the downloading of books from Digital Library of India (DLI) : http://sanskritdocuments.org/scannedbooks/dlidownloader/ (Some anti-virus programs give a false positive warning. This warning can be ignored safely. Downloading from the zip archives can bypass the warning also.)
