learning slokams

[Guest guest]

Sri:

Respected sirs,

I am from Brisbane, Australia. I have been the member of this group for the past 5 months. after reading a lot of mails, i have gained knowledge about our sampradayams and i am really interested in learning slokas. I have started teaching my son, various slokas thru which i am also learning.

We are thengalai. There are lot of slokas and everything seem to be important. I just want to know from urselves, knowledgeable persons what slokas shd be given the first preference. I finished the vishnu saharanama sthothram and venkatesa suprabhatam and also some of the slokas written by swami desikan after reading the importance of learning it from the mails posted in this group. i have started learning nalarayiram - first 1000 slokams.

i request urselves, to help me on the above.

thank u very much.

Regards,

Padmaja.

Dear Smt. Padmaja,

 

I think you have already covered two great works (V, Sahasranamam and

V. Suprabhatam).

Of course the number of shlokams to learn are quite vast and nearly

endless.

In the interest of priority/time, it is better to study what the Lord

has spoken himself

(word of god) - rest are details. I personally would suggest

Bhagavadgita (700 shlokas).

If you study/leran one shloka per day, you will be done in 2 years. I

have initiated compiling

Gita work book with one shloka per page. I just completed first 2

chapters.

Because you already have taught V. sahasranamam, it would make Gita lot

simpler

to learn. V. Sahasranamam is a template to master any Sanskrit work,

especially Gita-

because much of Gita is also in the same poetic meter as VS (anuSHTub).

Attached are the files if you like to use.

Of course there are dozens of Gitas published, but you will see some

unique features in this study guide. This study guide will also have

audio. For now just texts attached. I hope to complete the rest of the

verses

by next Summer (I do 2 verses per day- take sabout 1 hour per verse!).

If you like I can send the files seperately.
