Kali_Upasaka Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 How did you arrive at that conclusion. Sadhana is mentioned. a with a diacritical mark. A with a dash over it. This means आ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sant Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 How did you arrive at that conclusion. Sadhana is mentioned. a with a diacritical mark Theres no line above 'a' in sadhana so it means it should be pronounced as saadhan.It is the same way krishna कृष्ण Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kali_Upasaka Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 I see one. You do not. ā With a macron. ā In fact every word in the page has it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sant Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 see one. You do not. ā With a macron. ā In fact every word in the page has it. Again i think there is some misreading. The line /macron is above the a after 's' and not the one after 'n' sādhana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kali_Upasaka Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 You can not learn Sanskrit from the net. You do not teach a Veda reciting Brahmin who speaks in Sanskrit about Sanskrit Pronunciation. Tomorrow you will claim that Sanskrit came from Hindi. You can believe whatever you want to believe.

Tomorrow you will claim that Sanskrit came from Hindi. You can believe whatever you want to believe This doesnt have to do with learning sanskrit. I am not saying against you. The word is saadhana and not saadhanaa. Can anybody please tell about the pronounciations. And yes the word साधना is not mentioned in the vedas.

sant Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 There has been a misunderstanding over the years about the word being a sanskrit word.Just like people in india refer to tigers as sher many times but actually the word is bagha.

Can anybody please tell about the pronounciations. And yes the word साधना is not mentioned in the vedas. Just because you say so. You know neither Sanskrit nor the Vedas. You do not even seem to know about the origin of Hindi language. Just by keeping on repeating it many times does not make it true. साधना is the word mentioned in Apte's Sanskrit dictionary. Buy one and verify. BTW the word Sher means Lion. Sherewali Maa is mounted on a Lion. Sherewali is the Hindi translation of Simha Vahini. But in a deficient and undeveloped language like Hindi you do not have different words for Lion and Tiger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that sir.But people many times refer to sher as tiger.This is wrong thats my point.It is common.But sher,babbar sher,singh all means lion and 'bagh' means tiger. As for your dictionary one dictionary doesnt prove anything. Since you read and recite the vedas you yourself tell me where word साधना is.

sambya Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Since you read and recite the vedas you yourself tell me where word साधना is since you are the one who is disbelieving the burden of proof is on you ....................................no one is under obligation to ' tell ' you anything !!

What will i show .There is no such a word in the vedas.So which verse will i quote when there isnt such a verse or word.Mr kali upasak has said that it is sanskrit and has mentioned the vedas so it is upto him to tell which verse gives the word.
