Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute. (B) Published Text N-Srimad Bhagavadgita with the Gitabhasya of Sankara and the commentaries of Anandagiri, Nila- kantha, Śrīdhara, Madhusudana Sarasvati and Dhanapati and the GS: Ed. Pansikar Vasudeva Sarma: published by the Nirnayasagar Press, Bombay, 1912. The editor says that this edition of the GS is based on two MSS: (a) A defective MS of Kashmir origin and (b) a MS preserved in the Deccan College, 1. It seems not easy to reconcile this date with the MS No. 118422/1875-76. The details of the date given in the MS seem to point to Friday, the 30th August 1895 A.D. The Samvat meant here was Vikrama year, Kärttikädi expired. However, Su. 10 ended about three hours before the sun- rise on that day as per Swamikannu Pillai's An Indian Ephemeris-A.D. 1800 to A.D. 1999. 2. This has been republished by NSP in 1936 and by Munshi- ram Manoharlal Co., Delhi in 1978.
