Kaavya Sindhu,
ReplyDeletePranaam.
I was told about you and your unique website by one of my friends in Bangalore. Your work has been monumental. I am so much drawn to the these verses and meanings. Your blog is a great boon to the mankind in this era. It is like a LIGHTHOUSE showing directions to the errand world of today.
I am a Kannada writer though a solar energy entrepreneur by profession. I wish to bring your work in Kannada by doing translation. I will try to do as many verses as possible in the midst of my professional works. Could you kindly grant permission to translate your work to the extent possible? If you wish, I will send a few translated chapters for your perusal and acceptance. I presume that you are a Kannada speaking person and could read and write Kannada language.
Please do let me know your thoughts.
Please visit my Facebook page "Dharmappa Barki" and also do google search (Images) to know about me and my work.
Thanks
Warmly,
Dharmappa Barki

ReplyDeleteHappy to hear. Yes, Bangalore is a wonderful place! Wish I could help. As I mentioned earlier, I will not be able to work on this currently. Apologies 🙏
DeleteHello Rashmi . I happened to read one of the Subhasitas on FB and landed on this page:) Commendable indeed. I write to understand if you teach Sanskrit, for free - i.e.online? Just a query? Thank you
ReplyDeleteAll my classes are always free :). However, I'm not teaching an online Sanskrit class currently. Here's a link to a few of my Sanskrit lessons online though. Hope it helps.
