[Guest guest]

Jai Guru datta!

after fruitless efforts, I realized that the JGD mailing list does not

accept any attachments. I verified this by sending them from hotmail as ell

as the AOL.

 

Thus, having no other option, I am just pasting the text version of the

transaltions from the word doc. hence the foot notes etc. will be gone!!!

 

Regards,

Raveendra

 

 

 

Jai Guru Datta! Sri Guru Datta!
