Vande - To Bow/Pay respects Maa - Mother Taram - to you Please see the attached file with two versions. the first is with the more pronounced N sound of Maa and the other is without Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jagdish 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2005 please see the attached file. i would go with the first one. the first word is Prakash = light the second word is doot (the "t" is pronounced softly) = Messenger Best Wishes Jagdish Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinayakan 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2005 Also best wishes to you, Jagadish. Sanskrit is such a rich and subtile language.You have to know the context to make a good translation. Like for beauty we have: Saundaryam, sundarataa, shobhaa, laavaNyam, chaarutaa, ruupam, ramaNiiyataa, bhavyataa, shriiH etc. LaavaNyam and ruupam are mostly used for a beautiful body. For beautiful nature shobhaa is used. Saundaryam (sundarataa) is very common. Messenger is duutaH, mostly used for a messenger from a king. Embassy is translated as DuutaavaasaH or RaajaduutaavaasaH, also in Hindi. Littarly messenger is SandeshaharaH or sandeshavahaH. There are many words for light in Samskrit: JyotiH (jyotiSh), prakaashaH, aalookaH, dyutiH, bhaa, aabhaa, prabhaa, bhargaH (in Gayatri mantra), rochanam, rochas, rochiH, kaantiH, diiptiH etc. These words are not all the same.
