The Manasollasastuti of Appayya Diksita with a commentary in Sanskrit by Sri Sivananda Yati, is now presented by the Academy to the discerning public, along with a free rendering in English, both of the text and commentary.
The title Manasollasa is a popular one, a few other works being the Varttika by Suresvaracarya on Daksinamurti Astaka and a work on Architecture (also known as Abhilasitartha Cintamani by Somadeva. But this work, the Manasollasastuti, though not as popular as other works of the same name, is yet a valuable addition to Advaita literature.
Sri Appayya Diksita, a polymath and a dialectician, hailed as an incarnation of Lord Siva (Paramesvaravatara), is known to have composed 104 works, both small and voluminous. The reconciliation of Agamic texts and thoughts with the Vedic mode of worship is what Diksita attempted in many of his works.
