Tattvaloka of Janardana, the pupil of Anubhutisvarupa,the famous author of the Sarasvatiprakriya see above No. 54), is a defence of the Advaita Vedanta against the Nyaya-Vais'esika system. It consists of 60 sections divided into two Adhyayas. For a MS. of the text, see Hall,Index, p. 157 and Aufrecht, Leipzig Catalogue,No. 890. Janardana quotes Bhaskara (Nimbarka)and bases his work on S’ankara’s S’arirabhasya.The commentary called Tattvaprakas’ika. was composed by the author's pupil. A MS. of this commentary ( Peterson. Reports, III. p. 208) is dated Samvat 1432. Both the teacher and the pupil appear to have flourished in the 14th century. Our MS. is about 300 years old. |
