Any volunteers?

May 23, 2001

Greetings to all advaitin and ADVAITA-L members:

I have been blessed by the help of Shree Sunder and Shree Dennis in

getting the Notes on Brahmasuutra. It was really a cooperative

endeavor involving all three of us. I have been mailing the first

draft to Shree Sunder who does the painful job of proof reading,

correct the transliteration and find any missing references and

mail the corrected version to Dennis who sorts out the Sanskrit words

for glossary while making any final corrections. Sunder used to find

the meaning and prepare the final glossary after it is checked by

Dennis and myself. My job was only to post the corrected version to

the list. Sunder expressed that he is going to be very busy and will

not be able to do the function for some time.

While we all got the benefit of his excellent service, I am going to

miss him. I would need a volunteer who can proof read making any

corrections in transliteration as well as in English. It is a public

secret that I am very bad speller and very bad proof reader. Sunder

promised to continue the service until the end of this fourth suutra

that we are discussing now - which should be over in couple of weeks.

Any Volunteers to help the smooth flow of these notes?

What is involved as follows:

1. proof read the first draft of the notes making all corrections and

possible references.

2. Mail the corrected version to Shree Dennis Waite

3. Find the meaning for the Sanskrit words that Dennis provides and

post the glossary.

4. Finally Sunder also was helping me to put these corrected version

of the notes and glossary in the archives files of advaitin list.

Hari Om!

Dear Dennis and Sada,

I have really enjoyed my participation in the postings and

learned a great deal [i hope]. I thank you both for the splendid

team-work and co-operation. I shall continue to enjoy the fruits of

your labors, and make suggestions as an observer on the periphery.

Hopefully, at some future date I may be able offer more time to this

project.

With very best wishes,

sunder

Namaskaram

I will volunteer to be the proof reader! I may not be as well read as some

of you all are but I can do the tasks you have outlined below. If you would

like to give me a chance I'll give it my best shot!!
