Hi group.

 

Is there such a thing?

 

Phillip

 

 

See the following. Note there are frequently several eds. of these titles, but

I have not included them all. These mostly deal with the formalised

laukikanyayas of sastraic literature (which perhaps tend to give darsana and

other disciplines an "unbalanced diet of examples," in Wittgenstein's phrase).
