[16]: Mausala Parva. [17]: Mahaprasthanika Parva. [18]: Swargarohanika Parva Very scarce complete set. An informed, serious, and scholarly translation (though far from perfect and completely reliable) of an eclectic mix of the Popular Version of Neelakantha and the Calcutta version of the text. Ganguli’s original edition (unlike many, though not all, of its reprints) contained indications of the individual verses translated and also thoughtful footnotes that pointed out Ganguli’s differences with the commentator Neelakantha and with the authors of the Bengali translation.
