SARASVATI VIHARA SERIES - CHECKLIST
Series Note: This series published critical editions of texts largely in the domain of Sanskrit, Vedic studies, Pali, Buddhist studies and Indology. It also published works of Indian interest in other subject areas, for example: Indian Scientific Nomenclature of Mammals and A Dictionary of English-Indian Terms of Administration.
The words "Sarasvati Vihara" may be translated into English as "temple of Sarasvati" ("vihara" is a Sanskrit tword meaning a Buddhist monastery or temple and, according to Wikipedia, Sarasvati is the "goddess of knowledge, education, learning, arts, speech, poetry, music, creativity, purification, language and culture" in Hinduism).
This series was followed by another and similar series, Sata Pitaka Series, from the same publisher, the International Academy of Indian Culture.
The International Academy of Indian Culture was founded in 1932 by the Indian linguist, scholar and politician Raghu Vira and it currently continues to operate under the stewardship of his son, the scholar Lokesh Chandra.
