सद्दर्शनं 
Truth Revealed.
--
After going through the teachings of Bhagvan Sri Ramana Maharshi for a year
or two, I went to
Sri Ramanashramam, Tiruvannamalai (South India).
I bought a few books about Him or His works.
"TRUTH REVEALED" was one such a small book with a Preface written by
Grant Duff.
Earlier, I had read about Him, so greatly benefited by this Preface.
For the benefit of readers I posted the same verbatim in my another
 ramanavinay blog.
Here I'm presenting the Preface only.

A NOTE
ON THE ENGLISH TRANSLATION
--
The Title "TRUTH REVEALED" stands in the place of the original Tamil title
"ULLADU NARPADU"
which means
"Forty verses about That which is."
What is offered, therefore, to the earnest seeker in this short treatise is
SAD-VIDYA or Knowledge of Truth.
While TRUTH REVEALED is an original exposition of the Highest Truth by
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi,
the Supplement consists partly of the verses (which are about sixteen in number)
composed by Him for the first time.
In structure and expression the English translation of all the verses adheres very
closely to the text in Tamil and can, therefore, be entirely depended upon by the
reader, unacquainted though he be with the Tamil Language.
The synopsis gives clearly and concisely the central idea of each of the verses in
the entirety and may therefore be considered as a conspectus of the whole treatise.
