[INDOLOGY] Arsagranthavali 1912 Samkhya publication

[David and Nancy Reigle]

Dear Lubomir,

This information is extremely helpful. Thanks a lot for writing it up for
us. No doubt it will help others here, too, in finding some of these
elusive titles. I had not seen the DLI mirror site that you gave a link to.
Its search capabilities are amazing.

With many thanks,

David
