Dear Jim,

This ṭīkā is quite rare, as you said, but it is actually a Pali translation of the Burmese Nissaya translation of Saddanīti (The nissaya translator was a Burmese monk named U Bodh). So its value is mainly for foreigners who cannot read Burmese. This is why it has not been published hitherto in Burma.

with metta,

Ven. Pandita (Burma)

Here's a termporary link for anyone here interested in downloading a copy of
the Saddanīti-ṭīkā Burmese MS in the U Pho Thi Library Collection, Thaton,
Myanmar (UPT499.1 folios 0a-310a), 80 MB:

If you don't have a Dropbox account, I think you can log in with gmail. I
believe the photos were taking last year by Dr. William Pruitt and one of
our members, Aleix. I think this ṭīkā is quite rare. I'm not sure if it was
ever published as a book. It was Dr. Pruitt who put it in Dropbox today
after I enquired about it.

Best wishes,

Jim
