Welcome to Kasarabada.org
November 21, 2015 !!
Kasarabada.org welcomes all !
In Ramayana / Balakanda this week it is Balakanda Sarga 69. The entourage of Dasaratha after four days of travel reaches Mithila and are properly received by Janaka. Janaka suggests that the marriage may happen after the conclusion of the Yagnya that is going on. Dasaratha agrees.
In Bhagavadgita we move to the Sixth chapter namely Atma samyamana Yoga. "Atma samyamana" means controlling the self . The complex of "self" consists of mind , intellect and the sensory organs. Controlling self means effectively controlling all these too! How to accomplish that is the gist of this chapter . The answer comes as "meditation". In fact many people call this chapter by the name of "Dhyana Yoga" or the path of meditation. As usual the the main notes on the sixth chapter has Sanskrit slokas presented in Devanagari as well as Kannada.
The Telugu version of the Sixth chapter is presented with both slokas as well as commentary text in Telugu.
There is also an added comment on some slokas in the fifth chapter. To say Bhagavadgita is an amazing document would be repeating ourself . None the less the process of writing the prose order for each sloka and then understanding led us to muse a little more . Out of that musing came our comment "A thought from Bhagavdgita" ! Another aspect of our Bhagavadgita is that where ever there is significant Sanskrit text is involved we are having the option of reading the Sanskrit text in Devanagari script or Kannada script with rest of the notes remaining in English. We have full commentary in Telugu with slokas too separately.
We have multilingual pages. An important part of language pages is Telugu. The Telugu home page is restructured . We want all our Telugu visitors to visit the new Telugu page. We created pages for Telugu Balakanda, Telugu Bhagavadgita and Subbalakshmi gari kalamlO. These are in addition to the earlier Vijayraghavrao gari Sundarakanda.
We are excited.
Happy Reading !
