Saddatthabhedacintaadiipanii, verse 1

Greetings all,

Here is the opening verse to the Saddatthabhedacintaa and
the commentary to it by Vicittaala`nkaara (Shwekuu Sayadaw).

I don't know if my underlining of the sa.mva.n.niya words
will work on Yahoo Groups, so I have taken the precaution of
indicating them with asterisks.

In my next post I will translate some introductory notes
from Phra Mahaa Nimitr. (Nina, these should serve to answer
your question about the subject of the treatise).

My thanks to those of you who checked the pdf files for me.

Best wishes,

Dhammanando
