Namaste,
I am Nivedita. In this blog, I would like to share the notes that I prepare for my Sanskrit studies. I also intend to include other material that I gather from my teachers and friends. The material posted here could benefit those who are learning Sanskrit.
There are material related to the correspondence course conducted by Samskrita Bharati. There are numerous question papers with solved answers. The answers are yet to be validated.
There are some notes related to the Gita Sopanam/Pravesha course offered by Samskrita Bharati.
More material will be added for the MA Sanskrit programme offered by KSOU.
If you have any comments, you may reach out to me at nivedita[dot]yrsk@gmail[dot]com.

I am looking a listing, only a list, of selected / impotant / popular verses of all Kandaas (Cantos) of Raamayana. This will be of great help to persons like me who cannot go through the 2400 verses of Valmiki Raamayana, with any degree seriousness.
I have in mind a selection like the one available as “Srimadbhagavatha Makarandalu” – a book published by Geeta Press regarding Bhagavatham by Potana in Telugu. .
