Guest guest Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Om Namah Shivayah Does anyone have a really good link for finding the English definitions of Sanskrit words? I usually use hinduism.about.com's (which is pretty good, and generally a pretty good informational site) but I'm looking for something larger. Thanks in advance!!

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 OM amriteshvaryai namaH Dear Erica, Here are a couple of sites: http://webapps.uni-koeln.de/tamil/ This is a good site, but you have to enter words using the script provided there, called Harvard-Kyoto script. http://members.chello.nl/l.bontes/sans_n.htm Download the stuff on that page and install them on your computer. pretty decent, but only subset of the top. But worth it. http://www.thekrishnastore.com/Detail.bok?no=2295&bar= This is a good one and basically the whole sanskrit dictionary in a CD, but searchable. Pretty Good! I had a copy of it. But lost it ). Costs $1!!! Apte's Sanskrit dictionary (book) is a good dictionary to keep, if one is really serious about Sanskrit learning. I think this is plenty of information for you to get rocking in Sanskrit! Good Luck and Have Fun!

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Om Namah Shivayah Blessed Soul Narayan~ I really don't think that I can rock Sanskrit, but I really want a resource where I can look up some words from mantras, prayers, etc. so I really understand their meanings. I am an "advanced beginner" when it comes to these things. Thank you for the links! I think that I would purchase the $1 CD ROM, if it wasn't coming from ISKCON. :/ I will use these online resources. Thanks again!
