I wonder if you, or anyone else, can locate in a bookstore (or at least a
library) the translation of the Yoga Upanishads:
tr. by T. R. Srinivasa Ayyanagar.
Edited by G. Srinivasa Murti. 2d ed., rev.,
Madras: Adyar Library, 1952. 502 pages.
Adyar Library Series no. 20.
The yoga upanishads are included (as you mention) in the six volume series
published by Adyar library with the commentary of upanisad-brahmayogin but
this series only contains the sanskrit.
