Guest guest Posted August 20, 2003 Report Share Posted August 20, 2003 Dear Sadagopan Swamin, Thank you for posting the information on the activities of the Academy. It is quite interesting to get to know the contributions this noble institution is making for the promotion of Sanskrit, and Ramanuja.
