Dear Martin,
The Pramanavarttika—the most influential Buddhist philosophical work, some even say, the most influential South Asian philosophical work.
The Tattvopaplavesimha—the only Sanskrit philosophical work that is entirely independent of any religious tradition.
Best wishes,
Eli

Subject: [INDOLOGY] Highlights from the Sanskrit corpora

Dear Colleagues,

I have a lecture to prepare and am conducting a short survey:

I would like to know from the Sanskrit scholarly community what those feel are the utmost most excellent works from the entire corpora and a short line about why.

Think of it as "if there were to be a Pullitzer or Booker Prize for the notable Sanskrit works", who and what would be the nominees and why.

It could be a text that was of exceptional technical value for example Pāṇini's Aṣṭādhyāyī or those that have introduced a novel method in a field of science for example the Suśrutasaṃhitā. Then of course a notable poetic marvel such as Śakuntalā.

If there exist some already compiled lists of the same I would most appreciate it.

With warmest wishes,

Martin
