He wrote a book in Telugu on the six systems of Indian Philosophy in which he explained to the ordinary reader the essential aspects of Nyaya, Vaisheshika, Samkhya, Yoga, Purva Mimamsa and Uttara Mimamsa Darshanas. His other contribution is a series of three booklets in Telugu on the lives and philosophies in brief of the Trimatachoryas Shankara, Ramanuja and Madhva. These booklets have been translated by him into English also and this booklet is one among them.
