translations of Sanskrit Classics
giirvaani @ yahoo.com

With the enthusiasm given by our readers to proceed further in this long-forgotten lane of Sanskrit after vAlmIki rAmAyaNa, we are continuing to present some more legendary works in the series of word-for-word transliterations. Among them Ritusamhāram, gīta-govindam are completed, while raghuvamsham, harivamsham are yet to be completed.
 

Earlier, bhārata sāvitri, an extinct text forming part of mahābhārata, is retrieved and presented here.

All these works are done with the fonts of Omkārananda Ashram, and the readers are requested to install Sanskrit 99 and URW Palladio IT for works like Ritusamhāram, gīta-govindam and raghuvamsham. And fonts Sanskrit 98 and Translit 98 for vālmiki rāmāyaNa. English text  is composed in Georgia font. All these fonts are available here: fonts.zip [544kb]

Even though these fonts are installed the result may be gibberish as main bowsers have stopped dispalying Indic fonts properly. Hence we suggest the reraders to use older versions of browsers which are somewhat faithful in rendering old fonts. In view of the failure of browsers to render Indic fonts properly, oflate we have resorted to give texts only in Itrans coding.
