Comments

• Delete Non notable book. None of the criteria of WP:BOOKCRIT is meeting here. All books written by a notable person do not automatically become notable by inheritance. Excerpts and mentions only prove that this is not a hoax article, these links by themselves do not prove notability. The notability bar has been set higher as we cannot have article on every book. (see below points)
  • [1] Himalayan publisher link is a book that posts an excerpt. The publisher is not well known or reliable.
  • [2] The link from "Motilal Banarsidass" is an excerpt by a non notable author.
  • [3] Anmol Publications not well known or reliable.
• A notable book will have enough reviews and coverage in the reliable source so that enough material will be available to write a Wikipedia article on the same. This is not the case here. The lack of critical review by noted scholars, is itself a big giveaway that this is not a notable book. Without a reliable source backing the contents, I cannot support a merge.

I have already verified all the links posted above. Mention of the book in the catalogue of University, passing mentions in other books etc only prove that this is not a hoax article, these do not justify notability. The bar has been set higher as we cannot have article on every book.
