Learning Sanskrit Part 2

[Caitanyachandra]

Modern English is one of the most degraded forms of verbal communication in the history of United States and India for that matter. It is slow, puny, and useless except for linking into education & money. Interesting.

bhava and bhAva are very different.

so are bhao and bhai.

and barkaro and but-bhava.

[Tarun]

Caitanyacandraji:

I assume you're interested in studying Sanskrt.

Here are a few simple Words of Wisdom:

satyaM vada = Speak truth.

I typed capital m = M because it's nasalized m with dot on top.

dharmaM cara = Act according to virtue = Do your duty.

Again I typed in capital m = M, for same reason.

matRdevo bhava = Treat mother as God (demigod).

matr = mother, devo = demigod, bhava = becomes.

bhava and bhAva are very different.

Ergo, on internet we capitalize (or not) to make distinction.

Oh what are those difs?

Do you know this song:

Jaya RAdhA GirivaradharI...?

It's last 2 lines go something like this:

Taruna carane mana manjira bhaoye

ZrI KRSNa dAsa ...

There's your bhaoye. Go for it.

 

 

[Caitanyachandra]

bhakti and bakri, or bakree with your intelligence!

[Tarun]

Within the range of old and fresh prasAda-seva, I'd have to agree.
