Guest guest Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Dear Chetan, I never cease to be amazed by the fact that as an Indologist I can access such a massive amount of valuable data from my living room for no cost other than owning a computer and having an internet connection. It is a great service to the pursuit of knowledge and invokes the spirit of that famous verse from the Bhagavad Gita (BhG 2.47)about being more tuned in to the task in hand than being preoccupied by the rewards one might accrue from performing that task. Thanks to you and all those others who help to make this valuable data available to all.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Hi Bruce: It was always my desire to use my IT knowledge for the advancement of Sanskrit. Thanks to my vacation, this project - an Old Dream saw the Light of the Day. I am eager to keep churning softwares for Sanskrit Knowledge Systems if they have a Wide Scope for Usage, for example the Sanskrit dictionary. Users will do me a great favor if they drop in suggestions for what they would deem as programmable Sanskrit Knowledge Systems. I will study the feasibility and try to implement it. Do wait for an enhancement of Monier Williams Dictionary which will support Direct Devangari Unicode, allowing you to enter directly in Devanagari without needing any transliteration. It is ready but I will not be able to release it for another two weeks. I would also like to announce that I hope to have a Scanned eBook Section wherein rare and out of prints books will be made available. One such book will be the Dictionary of Sanskrit Grammer of Belvekar. Also, One of the crucial things I hope to achive is to have the published and unpublished books of 93 some year old Sanskrit-Hindi Writer Acharya Janaki Vallabh Shastri made available over their. I will be making a trip to his home town next month and all books they will allow me to photocopy will be put up for download. He is one of the few twentieth Century Original Writers of Sanskrit based in Muzaffarpur, Bihar and critics have raved about him Thanks for your Kind support and appreciation.
