Dear Asthikas, I am very happy to read about the service of Sri. U.Ve. Uzhappakkam swamin to Sanskrit. His service should be recognised by the President of India. I am very proud to say that Uzappakkam swamin is son-in-law of my Acharyan Madurantakam Swamin Vaikuntavasi Sri.U.Ve. Veera Raghavarya Maha Desikan. All his sons too are great Sanskrit Scholars. At this moment I would like to request all of you to iniate yourself and your family to learn Sanskrit either in person with such great scholars or through net. visit http://www.geocities.com/vcgrajan/kendram.html Dasan, Govindarajan, Sanskrit Teacher, Muscat. >From: elangadu santanam mukundan <mukundan_es@xxxxxxxxx> >To: "N.S.
