Thank you, everyone, for the quick replies. The catalogue of Sanskrit mss at Osmania University confirms that the “I am visionary" mss are indeed from there. There are interesting and rare works in the collection, so I for one am happy to see some of them digitized.

Best wishes,

Jonathan

This is amazing. I assume that the Sanskrit Academy is distinct from Osmania University. I spent three days there trying to get a manuscript of the Yājñavalkya Smṛti, without success. The policy them was not to give more than one third of a single manuscript!! An asinine policy. The Sanskrit Academy seems to have a much more enlightened policy. But it would be good to give some metadata about each ms.

Dear Colleagues,

I’m writing on behalf of Nilanjan Das, who's not on this list. He was wondering if anyone might be able to identify which library the digitized manuscripts posted to Archive.org under the account “I Am Visionary Tunes” may have come from. Almost all of the mss are marked with shelf numbers, but no further information is given. Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes,

Jonathan
