Devi 1000 files from the CD-Rom

[Guest guest]

I've just discovered that the CD-Rom for the Lalita Sahasranaam

produced by Amma's ashram contains the individuals files that can be

converted to MP3. I don't have an Mp3 player, so the stotra files

(by line, not by couplet) take up 4 CD disks, and the List form files

take up 11 Disks. This is because CD players have only a 2 digit

counter limiting the tracks to 99 per disk. My regular CD burning

program wouldn't do a direct burn because the files are in a low

quality 8-bit mono wav format, so you'll need a separate program to

convert them. It helps to pre-make some folders labeled by 99's (1-

99; 100-198, etc.) and to double check the order. For some reason

the stotra file 161 was always out of order and moving the files to

be burned always put the last one into first place. The folder of

list names also contains an extra file (m1-b I think) that is

actually not needed, it's the first of the Devi 108 names.

 

The meditation is also broken into 14 separate files, which I placed

on the last disk with the 2 bhajans from the CD-Rom, since I've

already memorized it.

 

It's really great for learning or just spot-checking your

pronunciation of the names, since you can just click back or keep the

track on repeat. I don't know about MP3 players, which might allow

you to load the entire list and stotra.

 

And here I thought the CD-rom was a rip off, since most of the

information was taken from the brown commentary book.
