articles and monographies on VaikhAnasa

From the Bhakti List Archives

• October 31, 2002


For all who are interested in a further study on VaikhAnasAgama and
VaikhAnasa tradition in general, please find enclosed a list of publications I found
helpful during my research. Some publications are rather difficult to get
hold of. The languages of the listed articles are English, Sanskrit, Tamil,
Telugu, French, German, Dutch. Some do not deal with VaikhAnasa in the first
place but nevertheless contain very useful information on the topic.

Best regards
