We take the opportunity of presenting before the public, the critical edition of the sixth and seventh chapters of the Müla- Madhyamaka Kārikā of Nāgārjuna. The speciality of the edition is that here the original kārikās have been followed by Candrakirti's commentary and the English & Bengali expository translations of the kārikäs by Dr. Heramba Nath Chatterjee. A Sanskrit commentary named Mañjuvyākhyā by Pandit Sri Bidbu Bhusan Bhattacharya, Tarka-Vedanta- Sankhyatirtha, Adhyapaka in Samkhya, Govt. Sanskrit College, Calcutta, is an additional feature. The Eighth and Ninth chapters are already in press and we hope to get them published in near future. For reasons unavoidable the diacritical marks could not be used in the present edition and we propose to remove this deficiency in our next part of the text. K: L. Mukhopadhyay
