Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 Few days back, Shree Raviji , indicated the good work done by Brahma Shree R. Sridharan by publishing important books on Vedas and other related topics of our rich heritage. For details pl see the Web site www.swarnapuri.org . For those who have undergone the Adult ( Vedic ) literacy program like me, who require a book constantly for chanting Vedas , I would like to recommend two of the treasures which Shree Sridharan has published spending considerable amount of time in research by consulting many Vidwaans, many popular books , rare materials , manuscripts and the result is a master piece. The book has both Tamil and Devanagiri lipi , the print is oversized to enable a constant eye contact even if one misses few lines while chanting in a group, the appropriate swaras are clearly indicated with hardly any printing or swara errors. He has developed a unique style of his own in Tamil lipi to recognize the phonetic sound of the Sanskrit language that the Tamil language lacks, by which any person lacking the knowledge of devanagiri lipi, can easily follow and chant the Vedas without any mistakes. For all these life time efforts and his love for enabling many who may be otherwise discouraged to learn Vedas , I prostrate to this person who has undertaken this noble project with the blessings of Mahaswamygal of Kaanchi. Shree Rudra Ekadshini This Master piece has “ A to Z “ of mantras on this important subject contained in the mid of Krishna Yajur Veda . The book includes Mahanyasa, Avahanam, Kalasa Sthapan,Namakam,Rudra shodasi puja,Abhishekam, Rudra Homa, Rudra Thrishati, Arti , Asheervadha mantras etc. The book also contains the Sanskrit names of various Neivaidyams, fruits, flowers, leaves, month. Day , nakshatra etc Mantra Pushpa Mala This is another useful and an excellent work which contains Rudram, Chamakam,Purusha Suktham, all Ambaal Sukthas and various other 25 Sukthas. This has 618 pages and very reasonably priced at Rs 150. in the last few pages it containd the Manthra Pushpamand Shanthi Panchakam. What distinguishes this book with that of others is the quality of font, swaras without any mistake , no printing error and very comprehensive.
