Jai Guru datta!
after fruitless efforts, I realized that the JGD mailing list does not
accept any attachments. I verified this by sending them from hotmail as ell
as the AOL.

Thus, having no other option, I am just pasting the text version of the
transaltions from the word doc. hence the foot notes etc. will be gone!!!

Regards,
Raveendra

Jai Guru Datta! Sri Guru Datta!
