"ISVARASAMHITA" [Sanskrit-English] #critically edited and translated in 5 Volumes by V. Varadachari and G.C. Tripathi# ~2009~

UPDATE from 10-June-2019: new enhanced scans had been added (optimized sizes + OCR-txt-layers in English). It turned out on 10th of June, 2019, that 7z-archive with files got contaminated with a virus. I have replaced all the contaminated files with virus-free versions!

===========================================================
old scans (without OCR-layers - 260MB):

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: I could not imagine that English translation of "Shree Ishwara-Samhita" (a part of Orthodox Shree PanchaRatra) exists, because the English translations of the Orthodox PanchaRatra are very rare. 

"Shree Lakshmi-Tantra" translated by Sanjukta Gupta and #"Shree Parama-Samhita" translated by Dr. S. KrishnaSwami Aiyangar# are just very rare examples. 

This translation is the exemplary one - a lot of wise notes and explanations for English readers, precisely edited Sanskrit and etc., the perfect example of how any Tantra/Agama translation should look like! 
Volume NO. 01 is the separate research dedicated to "Shree PanchaRatra" in toto. The Chapter NO. 16 dwelling on jiva-tattva and explaining that jiva = ChitShakti (Orthodox Siddhanta from "Shree Lakshmi-Tantram") is outstanding. Don't miss if you are collecting surveys devoted to Vaishnava-PanchaRatra-Agama! 
Some technical details regarding the scans: Originally 4 scans had been found on archive.org, but they were huge (about 230 megabytes each). As usually I have optimized via PDF X-Change, now each scan is just about 70 megabytes. If you need original huge 230 MB scans, please refer to archive.org - #Vol.01   #Vol.02   #Vol.04   #Vol.05

VISHNUCHITTA (PERIYA ALWAR) - 2 BOOKS ["Tirumozhi Sublime Hymns" by V. Rajagopalan + "Vishnuchitta" by prof. K. V. Ramakrishnamacharya]

DOWNLOAD (ENGLISH): 

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: I have decided to unite these 2 Books in 1 upload, as both dedicated to Vishnuchitta Alwar (also known as Periya Alvar). 
Periya Alvar epitomizes 2 sides of Vatsalya-Bhava (adoring BalaKrishna in parental mood), because He (Vishnuchitta) was not only the foster father of Shreemati Andal-Devi (Avatara of Bhu-Devi), but the author of Bhakti-poetry devoted to Shreemati Yashoda-Devi and BalaGopala as well. 
The upload consists of 2 Books: 

1. "Periyazhvar Tirumozhi Sublime Hymns of Mystic Consciousness" by Vankeepuram Rajagopalan - elaborate and poetic English translation of "Periyazhvar Tirumozhi". 

2. "Vishnuchitta" K. V. Ramakrishnamacharya [Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams 2015] - simple biography of Periya Alwar on about 40 pages.

"Sri Vishnucittiya of Sri Visnucitta [Engalazhavan] - commentary on Sri Visnu Purana - a study" #by Dr. M.A. Ranganayaki# [Sai ShriRam Printers] ~2005~

UPDATE from 10-June-2019: OCR-version of this scan had been added (optimized size + OCR-txt-layer in English). 

Unfortunately, it is rather tedious to convert this scan into pure black-and-white OCR due to original visual glitches on pages (spots, skews and etc.). So, the upload below is the 7zip-archive with 2 versions: fractional OCR in black-and-white (around 80% of pages with OCR) + non-OCR in colour.

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: Nice research dedicated to the famous Tika to "Shree Vishnu-Purana" by Shree VishnuChitta-Acharya.

The 1st part of the research tells about the basics of Shree Ramanuja-Siddhanta, the 2nd part dwells on Sri Visnucitta [Engalazhavan] Tikas. 

The foreword of the research says:
One of the first pages also contains VishnuChitta UtsavaMurti photo:
There is also very inspiring bio of M.A. Ranganayaki at the end of the research:

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: One of the best Granthas about Shree Ramanuja-Siddhanta, it has the virtue of explaining complicated Siddhanta intricacies in a simple language. Very much recommended!
