Nrisimha Tapaniya Upanishad

[edit]

An avatar or incarnation of Vishnu in anthromorphic form of human and lion

  • The nomination looks pretty good: Article is new enough and long enough; Hook is interesting and within specifications and cited in the article; elements are cited; image meets specs; QPQ done. But the web site Vedarahasya.net is used several times as a citation, and on its main page says it is a personal portal, so there may be reliability issues. Can you find a better source for the material you are citing? (Also note I am a new reviewer and would like a second opinion).Rjmail (talk) 17:25, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
  • @Rjmail: Thanks for the review. Please sign your review. It is also an authentic reference as the same text is contained in these two references [1] and [2] of the Vedanta Spiritual Library (extensively used in the several Upanishads posted and approved on DYK earlier this year), which I have added now. I have retained the earlier refrence also as it gives the text of both the Upanishads in one reference.--Nvvchar. 17:14, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
  • Ok Nvvchar I see the new citations. I notice at the bottom of that website it says "Please refer to the published books for the original sanskrit text and commentary." I don't know if you'd like to cite those directly, but if it's sanskrit there's not much I could review about it anyways! So if those cites have been deemed reliable in the past, I won't push the point further, and we're good to go in my opinion. Though again I am a new reviewer and would appreciate a second opinion.

  • @Rjmail: Thanks. The full text in Sanskrit is here [3]. I did not not add it as I am not proficient in this langauge.--Nvvchar. 18:41, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
