It is #AkshayTritiya today.

Replugging old thread on Akshaya Tritiya.

लब्धो मया सुरसरित्! तटमाश्रितेन
सारः सुखस्य विपुलस्तव तोयपानात्।

Don't hate Ann for saying out loud what nearly all of them actually think.

If anything, thank her.

Joe ن चेदिराड्रिपुपार्षदः 🟩⬜️⬛️ I partly agree, he has invested far too much to call it quits. When I said he would implode I meant the guy would lose it mentally just enough to become equivalent of a Digvijay or Subramanian. Irrelevant nuisance.

In 1907, the Tokyo-based Chinese anarchist magazine Tien Yee 天義 ('Natural Justice') published an eye-catching ad for a Sanskrit textbook/reader 梵文典: Saṃskṛtap­rathama­mārgo­pa­deśikā. Unfortunately, the manuscript seems to never have been published and is no longer extant.

Because Hindutva is so reactionary to Islam, they end up framing Hinduism as a nebulous amoral system that privileges hedonism, vigilantism, and Machiavellianism, under girded by a huge victimology complex. This is not Dharma.

I sometimes love how Kashmiri speakers are fully aware that their /ē/ & /ō/ carry centering glides, i.e., [(ʲ)eˑɘ̯] & [(ʷ)oˑɘ̯], as can be seen ad hoc romanization, unlike Hindi-Urdu or Kannada. :) See “moedrye'ar” here for what I hear as [mʷɵd̻ɨ̆rʲeˑɘ̯r]. :)
