Hi KrishNabhaktas,

Couple of people have replied to me regarding their interest in helping

with

such a project. I want to

thank them for their offer. We will discuss this more at the VMS conference.

 

To my surprise, I found in my archives an excellent leaf-let that Dr.

Hebbar

had prepared regarding the life of sri madhva and the Dvaita Philosophy during

sri

puthige swamiji's visit to US during 1997. This contains a good one page

summary of

life of sri madhvacharya and a couple of pages summary about Dvaita Philosophy,

madhva maThAs etc. This can be a nice beginning to what were talking about

earlier.

The Philosophy section may have to simplified further to help lay people. Please

take

a look at this. Any errors in transliteration are mine. I have attached the .rtf

and

the .html versions of the document. This can be stored it in the VMS web site

if

there is any interest.

 

 

 

Regards,

Vasu
