RE: naamaavali

[Guest guest]

namaste Jami:

 

The best place for you to take up such a discussion on understanding

specific words under a context is

 

http://mailman.cs.utah.edu/mailman/listinfo/sanskrit

 

I have asked some questions there regarding trishatii bhaashya and I got

excellent guidance. I am sure you are aware of many online and downloadable

Sanskrit dictionaries that help you understand meanings of the words.

 

http://sanskrit.gde.to/dict/

 

If I am not mistaken, the book "Puja" published by Ammachi publications does

give one line meanings. You can always compare with them.

 

is not appropriate for this discussion, as we do not want get into

specific teachers and devotional material on them. And you should not

undermine amma-L, I am sure there are members there who can help you.

 

 

With best regards,

 

Ravi
