Dear members,

 

I would like to second the request of Mani to all the members

to be extremely careful when transliterating Sanskrit words.

I am disappointed that inspite of the request many posts abound

in transliteration errors. I wish the writers exercise better care,

particularly when there is an accepted transliteration scheme for

writing Sanskrit words in Roman script.

 

I would like to offer my apologies if anyone is hurt by the above

words but I felt it would be for the better, to point these errors.
