Two rare ashtottara-Sata-nAmAvaLis

[Guest guest]

Friends

 

Those of us who are devotionally inclined may be interested in these two

ashtottara-Sata-nAmAvaLis in the archana form. I know them from my father's note

books and have seen him use them daily.

They are rare in the sense that I have not yet met anybody who is aware of the

existence of these.

I have posted both of them, both in deva-nAgari script and in international

phonetic script.

I have not attempted any translation because, the first one on

Durga-Lakshmi-Sarasvati is rather easy and I don't want to insult the

intelligence of readers here by translating it; the second one on Hanuman is

rather a difficult piece and I dare not translate it lest I do it wrongly.

But I enjoy repeating both the archanas and I am sure there may be some in the

list who would love to do the same.

Dear Prof. Krishnamurthy,

 

I did try several times to download the Sanskrit font from the link

http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/software/iitmed.html when I read your first

message about the Durga-Lakshmi naamavali. However, the download

link failed to get activated.

 

This morning again, I tried without any luck. I am very much

interested in the naamavalis because I am a devi bhakta primarily

and Hanumanji is my second "passion". I don't understand why both

are playing truant and refusing to grant me their grace by enabling

this download.

 

In the circumstances, will you kindly suggest an alternative or,

else, if I am not asking too much, can transliterations be made

available?

 

Thanks for the wonderful material you are providing us through this

forum.

 

Best regards and respects.

 

Madathil Nair

This is in reply to Madathil Nair who reports that the download link for

Sanskrit fonts does not get activated. It ought to work. It works for me and it

works for two local friends with whom I am in contact.

I give the web addresses once again.

First go to

 

http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/software/iitmed.html

 

When you hit the Download Page button it will take you to

 

http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/software/editor_download.html

 

On this page there is a form to be submitted. You have to give your e-mail

address and write that the purpose is for you to read Sanskrit documents Once

you hit the Submit button, it takes you to the page where the download button

 

iitm_editor.zip

 

is available. That gives you what you want.

I hope it works now. If still it does not work, then I will have to send you

the transliterated version by e-mail. But I don't know whether e-mail will

transmit the phonetic script as it is with all the diacritical marks.

 

Please let me know after one more trial. Thanks.

 

praNAms to all advaitins,

profvk

PraNAms

These nAmAvaLis are now posted in Roman script (Kyoto-Harvard conv ention) at

the suggestion of a few friends, so that the inconvenience of having to

download the Sanskrit fonts may be avoided. Address is the same:
