Guest guest Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 thank you,nanda, i am aware of the transliterations and their pronunciation. it is just that in the description of the sankalpa i printed from the "files" section, there are no accents, and shrim was not spelled with an h (as is customary when accents are not available.). i did not know if there was a bija "srim" that i was unaware of, or if the accent was just missing from "shrim." but thank you for clarifying, it is good to know it is "shrim" ~leela , "Nanda" <chandimaakijai wrote: > > > Namaste Leela, > > Please see post /message/16532 > </message/16532> for Swamiji's > answer on the hand positions. > > Also, if you have the Chandi book with you, please see the end of this > book for the pronunciation of Sanskrit transliterations. > > Swamiji says "s" with the the acute accent on top should be pronounced > like " shawl with a light whistle;German sprechen" > > Hope this helps > Jai MAA > Nanda > > > , "durgakali8" <durgakali8@> wrote: > > > > i do not have the cd, so i was wondering if, when chanting the mantras > that include "srim", > > do we pronounce it with a "sh" sound or an "s" sound? > > > > also, what is the significance of the hand positions? > > > > thank you > > > > ~leela > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
