works of śaṁkarānanda

Here is a list of saṁkarānanda sarasvati’s works, as per the introduction to the gītā tātparya bodhinī published by kṛṣṇa panta śāstrī –

  1. gītā tātparya bodhinī on the bhagavad gītā
  2. dīpikās on 9 primary upaniṣads – īśāvāsya, kena, kāṭhaka, praśna, muṇḍaka, māṇḍūkya, taittirīya, aitareya, chāndogya
  3. dīpikās on 18 minor upaniṣads – atharvaśira, atharvasihkha, atharvaśīrṣa, amṛtanāda, amṛtabindu, āruṇi, kaivalya, kauṣītakī, garbha, jābāla, nārāyaṇa, nṛsiṁhatāpanīya, paramahaṁsa, brahma, brahmavallī, mahā, śvetāśvatara, haṁsa
  4. brahmasūtra dīpikā
  5. ātmapurāṇam (also known as the upanīṣadratnam)

Some of his dīpikās are difficult to find. Of the major upaniṣads, the following seem to be unavailable – īśāvāsya, kāṭhaka, muṇḍaka and chāndogya dīpikās. Many of the dīpikās on the minor upaniṣads were published in a volume titled “upaniṣadāṁ samuccaya”. The following were omitted – atharvasihkha, atharvaśīrṣa, nārāyaṇa, nṛsiṁhatāpanīya, brahmavallī, mahā, śvetāśvatara.
