Smiley 1 Report post Posted May 10, 2009 Frankly I quite don't know what to think about this. I would welcome everyone sharing their insights on this story: Renowned singer Andrea of only Sanskrit rock band marries in NevadaLas Vegas Herald Saturday 9th May, 2009 (ANI) Nevada (US), May 9 : Andrea Devi Forman, the lead singer of the only Sanskrit rock band of the world Shanti Shanti, married an attorney Joel A. Santos in a traditional Catholic church ceremony in Sparks (Nevada, USA) on May eight. Acclaimed Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, who was present at the wedding, will also bless the couple in customary Hindu way once they return from their honeymoon in Canada. Andrea recently released her sixth album titled "Veda" on the oldest scripture of the world Vedas. This groundbreaking work, which took one year to complete involving extensive research, contains shlokas (hymns) from all four Vedas-Rig-veda, Sama-veda, Atharva-veda, and Yajur-veda; some as old as 1,500 BCE. Andrea has never been to India, never had a Sanskrit teacher, and still she can spontaneously chant, read, write, and translate Sanskrit since she was nine years old. She has toured various countries and various states of USA with her Shanti Shanti band giving packed Sanskrit musical performances. She has been in various television shows, mentioned in various publications, and extensively written about. http://story.lasvegasherald.com/index.php/ct/9/cid/1e0899715fbc2697/id/499520/cs/1/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never studied sanskrit. And here I am for the last 9 years sharing my thoughts in what I think & feel is Hindu. Maybe in my past life I was one. Because if I were not, I would have posted this view in visaya ( our local culture & language). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

' he would immediately reply back with the correct answer , say monday or thrusday . this he did with absolute precision . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unlike what I saw on television of a boy whose arms were severed at birth. Maybe in his past life, he killed a vaishnava by squeezing the latter`s neck with his bare hands.
