We have been pleasantly surprised at the volume of comments we have been receiving. We got these from different parts of the world and from people of different faiths. It just is an indicator of the immense appeal of Valmiki's Ramayana, an immortal tale.

(NAME) K V N Gopal (EMAIL) gopal@aero.iisc.ernet.in (comments) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Namaste, Many thanks for embarking on a worthy endeavour of putting the Valmiki Ramayana with meaning and comments on the Web. I have a suggestion on behalf of unix users. It would be nice if you could also use dynamic fonts (Sans98.pfr can be created easily using Bitstream's WebFontMaker software) so that unix users can also read the Ramayana in Sanskrit Font with meaning using Netscape Navigator. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
Comment from web master : Above is an extremely good suggestion. We would really appreciate if someone could spare some time and provide us with the needed dynamic fonts. The effort will be duly appreciated at our web site.

| (NAME) Ram Gupta (EMAIL) Ra2gupta@aol.com (comments) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Sir: We plan to organize 24-hours Ramayana Paath at our place and needs some advice in planning. (1) Can all seven chapters (including last chapter 7 - Uttarkand) of Ram Charit Manas be completed in 24-hours time? (2) Sometime, it is difficult to maintain a proper speed to complete the whole reading in 24-hours. If after 23.5-hours, we are still half way in chapter 7 - Can we finish there? Or skip few pages and go to very end to finish it? We like to have some contingency plans, and your advice will help us planning the Paath. Thanks, Ram Gupta Richmond, VA |

I am interested in Rudyard Kipling's "Just So" stories, and curious about the literary genre in which they are written. I suspect it is a form of etioligical narrative peculiar to South East Asia, and probably India - How the Camel got his Hump, How the Leopard got his Spots etc. - and would be grateful if anyone can throw light on the characteristics and provenance of this literary genre. I would be most grateful. My e-mail no is above. |

I'm actually a student reading the Ramayana for a class and was wondering if maybe, for future students, you could put some themes and underlying ideas that are found in the book on this site. It might prove helpful to people, like me, who have to write 7 page papers on it! :) Thank you for making it available in the internet though. That's fabulous! |

| (NAME) keegan bucy (EMAIL) omeoteotl@webtv.net (comments) This is good because I've been curious about the Ramayana. The first time I found out about the poem was in Fifth grade when I read a children's version in a myth and legends book for children. I didn't know it was called the ramayana until I read a synoposis of it and it brought back the story that I actually read several times. I discovered the length of the poem is four times the Iliad and Odyssey combined. I guess that's the reason it is usually retold. |

| (NAME) Ranga (EMAIL) ranga61@hotmail.com (comments) It was an amazing experience reading the translation (since i do not know sanskrit) was enlightening to say the least. i have heard casettes by Balakrishna shastri narrating the sundara kanda - especially the verses, wherein hanuman meets / introduces himself to sita. i now await to read the sundara kanda translated. regards ranga |

| Avinash Sathaye, Professor of Mathematics, University of Kentucky, USA I was very glad to see the wonderful site you are preparing. You have done all the right things in providing a pleasing and convenient format and it should be very useful. Since you asked for "critical" comments, I went thru the material, randomly selecting and analyzing the verses. I have enclosed my comments in a word document - attached. I hope its format survives and that you can read it. If there is a problem, let me know and I will try some other format. I have picked on Sanskrit grammar as well as other constructions, please take it as a well meaning constructive criticism. I don't think I know you and I don't want you to feel unhappy with my criticisms. I wish you good luck and godspeed in finishing this monumental task! |
