English annotation by Vishnudut1926: A set of articles about Shree MadhvAcharya's (Dvaita, Tattvavada, Vaishnava Sampradaya) contribution to Indian Darshana.

How to install "Save for web" for GIMP 2.10 [Windows 10, via "Wayback machine" from archive.org]

Previously "save-for-web"-addon was available on https://registry.gimp.org/node/33, but this link is dead from 2018. 

Fortunately, archive.org has a backup, so step by step:

Step 1. Download "save for web" addon via wayback machine from Archive.org - https://web.archive.org/web/2018*/https://registry.gimp.org/node/33

2 versions should be downloaded (see the screenshot below or on #plurk):


Step 2. Shut down GIMP and copy/unzip both files like on the screenshot below (see also on #plurk):

Step 3. Re-launch GIMP and look into the File-menu (see the screenshot below or on #plurk). Ready, all systems GO, you can save web-optimized jpeg/png from now on!

"Sri Bhashya on the Philosophy of The Brahma-Sutra" #S.S.Raghavachar# [Sri Lakshmi Hayagreeva Seva Trust - 1986]


DOWNLOAD (English, 11MB, OCR-layer):

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: I am updating the "Sri Bhashya and Vedanta" segment of my E-Library currently, adding all the scanned variants of "Shree Bhashya" and Vedanta editions from my digital archives. 

Most of these scans will be uploaded without my standard annotations, as I can't remember the narratives, because I have studied Vedanta editions around 3-5 years ago.

"Introduction to VedArtha-Sangraha of Sri RamanujAcharya" #S.S. Raghavachar# [V.D. Kamath Sharada Press - 1973]


DOWNLOAD (Sanskrit-English, 7MB, OCR-layer in English):

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: Great book, no need in my annotation, as the book's name speaks for itself. 

In this book S.S. Raghavachar dwells not only on dry philosophic notions from Vedanta, but on such concepts as Absolute Beauty of Brahman (Lord Shree Narayana), Prapatti, Bhakti, Kainkarya and etc. 

Stylistically the book bears a lot of resemblance with Srinivasa Chari's books.
