Spanish Translator needed - Ox Power - Ki Jaya!
I'm looking for a volunteer to translate Paramananda's Ox Power- Ki Jaya! into
Spanish. If someone can do this by Feb 15, I will format it into a booklet
which can be published online in Adobe format.
(Also, once Balabhadra and Chaya find a new webmaster, I imagine they would
want
to add it to the ISCOWP website.)
Part of my immediate interest is to make this available to Latin American
countries, such as Cuba where oxen are widely used. Currently, Cuban practice
is mainly to use nose rings in oxen -- and I have read in Small Farmer's
Journal
that when amateur ox drivers work the animals, often the nose ring rips out.
If
it were a Krsna conscious farm, we would simply retire the ox -- but in Cuba
when the nose ring gets ripped out, the ox gets sent to slaughter.
Also, I would like Latin Americans to begin to think of Hare Krsna devotees as
a
source of information and expertise regarding ox power. (First ox power, then
hari-nama.)
Anyway -- if anyone is willing to translate Ox Power - Ki Jaya! into Spanish,
let me know right away. While we're at it -- a French translation would be
useful also. You can find the text online at ISCOWP's website under
"Resources."

your servant,
Hare Krsna dasi
