Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 For those interested, this is a good resource for sanskrit! "The Spiritual Seeker's Essential Guide to Sanskrit" by Dennis Waite available at the authors site http://www.advaita.org.uk/sanskrit.htm Uma ----------------- "It provides a two-level introduction to the Sanskrit language. Level one introduces the transliterated (Anglicised) alphabets used by books and the Internet for reproducing Sanskrit. Level two teaches the Devanagari script used for the true language and describes the main rules for combining letters and words. Correct pronunciation and writing are explained. The shivasUtrANi are explained in passing and some of the rules from the laghu-siddhAnta- kaumudI but this should not put anyone off since the whole exposition is intended for a complete beginner. A number of examples from the Upanishads, Gita and Astavakra Gita are used to illustrate simple translation. There is a comprehensive glossary of the Sanskrit terms used and a second one containing commonly encountered spiritual words. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
