Kasarabada.org welcomes all !

This week Sundarakanda moves to Chapter 49 . The chapters 43 to 49 are essentially the exploits of Hanuman on the battle field of Lanka. In chapter 49 we have Hanuman facing Ravan and announcing himself as the messenger of Sugriva the king of Vanaras. We have Chapter 49 on three pages having the story in English , and also having the story along with Sundarakanda Slokas in Telugu as well as Sanskrit. . The Telugu page will be completely Telugu. The Sanskrit. page has slokas in Devanagari with meanings in English.

The two chapters of Sundarakanda that are visited more often are Chapter 1 and chapter 15. The Chapter 1 describes Hanuman's leap across the ocean and the chapter 15 describes Hanuman's first glimpse of Sita. These two chapters in fact have associated legends. Considering the traffic generated on these pages these pages have been updated. You can visit the Chapter 15 on Sita darsanam with Sanskrit slokas and Slokas in Telugu . Now It has more slokas.

As always we are intrigued by the lessons for this generation from the classics of the old. That is what we have from Hanuman under one more thing this week

The regular features as usual continue !! Yes, Telugu home Page is also getting updated resolving technology issues !!.

The Kathopanishad in Simple words continues with Part3, as continuation of earlier Part 1 and Part 2 - this goes as part of our Athato Brahma Jignyasa. This week Part 3 completes the Kathopanishad Second Adhyaya with Valli4. The Valli 1 and 2 were part of Part 1 . Part 2 covers the Valli 3 which threads through a few concepts of duality Jivaatma and Paramatma, Brahman the Un-manifested and the manifested , and the two goals namely one of reaching heaven and the other attaining Moksha. . The Athato page also carries links to interesting notes on Kathopanishad !! . Now we have quite a bit of material on Kathopanishad; and it is not complete!!

One more thing automatically carries an updated article " Jayamantram- The victory Slogan "!!

With this Ugadi we started a page in Telugu titled - "Subbalakshmigari Kalam loninchi" . There is also a technology change. We are adding language support so that Indian language text van easily be accepted . Readers may see a bit of not so well formatted texts on the Telugu pages. Hopefully this will be resolved.

The extracts of an old book( 1899) by an Oxford Scholar on the History of Sanskrit Literature , appeared earlier under "one more thing" !!
