Being new to the group I do not know what percentage are familiar

with all the transliterated Sk. being put out. If I am in the

ignorant minority then pardon my complaining. I have many

translations and commentaries of Vedantic works, but even they do not

clutter up the page with so much Sk.

 

Please consider reducing by half, at least, the usage of Sk. Even

some of the "Indian" english is hard to follow. Another way to put it

is double the amount of Sk. that is translated into english.

 

Sorry to bring this up -- but I doubt if it is the first time.

namastE Nicholas,

 

Is there something specific which you wanted to tell us about? Is somebody

using too much of Sanskrit here? We should always try to communicate in a

language which can be understood by most of the readers. Please let us know

where you are finding it difficult. Thank you.

 

Yours,

Madhava
