Dear Albina,
Two more possibilities:
http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/sanskrit/sans.php?lnum=0 has free on-line
tutorials with MP3 or Real Media sound files giving pronunciation.
http://learn-sanskrit.com has a DVD set with workbook, designed for rapid
and pleasant learning of the ?shapes and sounds? of Sanskrit. It
introduces one new thing at a time and then gives practice with examples.
140 minutes of material.

Hello,
I have been searching for a poem by name 'tAra-pralApa' for a quite a while
now, and would very sincerely appreciate any help. Here is all I know about
it:
1. The poem is set in the context where Rama has just killed Vali, and Tara
comes to know of the tragedy. She rushes to see her dead husband, and the
poem is about her lamentation, and her exhorting Rama to kill her too.
2. It begins, "atha vidita vRttAntA ...", and the metre is one that is at
least longer than Vasantatilaka.
3. One source suggests the author is a certain 'shAntarAja', but I do not
know how accurate it is.
4. It was part of a non-detailed text in Sanskrit in the PUC board exams in
Karnataka about 40 years ago.
Please let me know if you've heard of this poem.
Thanks,
Mohan

Dear Mr. Mohan;
Your question took me back to my childhood:) I don't know about the poem in
Sanskrit but I remember my mother singing something similar in Tamil. Is it
also in Kamba-Ramayana? If so, I would greatly appreciate the reference to
that poem, even better the poem itself! I can almost hear my mother's sweet
voice (she had one of the sweetest voice that I have experienced) even now,
evoking so much pathos! It is incredible to imagine my crying in response!
Actually I think this pralapam also is a part of the Telugu repertoir of
similar "lamentations" -- pralapams (such as Gandhaari, Paanchali and so on)
and kalapams or kalahams, such as Satyabhaama's. I remember those things
because of my father who was forever rehearsing these things for the Telugu
theater. He, as was usual in those days, would practice narration and acting
out both in prose and poetry. The latter would involve a bit of dancing which
now I recognise as Kuchupudi style. If by chance anyone has any version of the
Tara-pralapam (perhaps it was more of a "kalaham" -- the cogent arguments that
Tara was presenting to Rama challenging him to justify his adharmic act of
making her a widow), please let me know the reference to that also.
To the delight of general populations in non-urban areas, there is abundant
literature of this genre, in folk theater such as yaksha-gana, bailu-aaTa of
Karnataka, Bommai-atam, Kuchupudi in Andhra, Kudiattam, Kathakali in Tamilnadu
and Kerala, Yatra/Jatra in Orissa/Bengal, BiaTak/Katha in the North and so on.
Unfortunately we are losing this precious treasury of cultural wealth very
fast. But it is wonderful to discover that Sanskrit literature provides bricks
to lay the foundation of the edifice of this wealth.
Your quiry to find such a brick is wonoderful. I hope we find it and many more
such as this.
Sorry, this was an unwarrented long response, I just got carried away.
Regards to all,
A. Iyengar.

Dear Mr Iyengar
Perhaps you are thinking of the word ?kal?pam?. There is an entrance dance
for Satyabhama, originally danced by men, called ?Bh?ma kal?pam? in
Kuchipudi.

Dear Mr. Mohan;
Your question took me back to my childhood:) I don't know about the poem in
Sanskrit but I remember my mother singing something similar in Tamil. Is it
also in Kamba-Ramayana? If so, I would greatly appreciate the reference to
that poem, even better the poem itself! I can almost hear my mother's sweet
voice (she had one of the sweetest voice that I have experienced) even now,
evoking so much pathos! It is incredible to imagine my crying in response!
Actually I think this pralapam also is a part of the Telugu repertoir of
similar "lamentations" -- pralapams (such as Gandhaari, Paanchali and so on)
and kalapams or kalahams, such as Satyabhaama's. I remember those things
because of my father who was forever rehearsing these things for the Telugu
theater. He, as was usual in those days, would practice narration and
acting out both in prose and poetry. The latter would involve a bit of
dancing which now I recognise as Kuchupudi style. If by chance anyone has
any version of the Tara-pralapam (perhaps it was more of a "kalaham" -- the
cogent arguments that Tara was presenting to Rama challenging him to justify
his adharmic act of making her a widow), please let me know the reference to
that also.
To the delight of general populations in non-urban areas, there is abundant
literature of this genre, in folk theater such as yaksha-gana, bailu-aaTa of
Karnataka, Bommai-atam, Kuchupudi in Andhra, Kudiattam, Kathakali in
Tamilnadu and Kerala, Yatra/Jatra in Orissa/Bengal, BiaTak/Katha in the
North and so on. Unfortunately we are losing this precious treasury of
cultural wealth very fast. But it is wonderful to discover that Sanskrit
literature provides bricks to lay the foundation of the edifice of this
wealth.
Your quiry to find such a brick is wonoderful. I hope we find it and many
more such as this.
Sorry, this was an unwarrented long response, I just got carried away.
Regards to all,
A. Iyengar.

Subject: [Sanskrit] tarA-pralApa
Hello,
I have been searching for a poem by name 'tAra-pralApa' for a quite a while
now, and would very sincerely appreciate any help. Here is all I know about
it:
1. The poem is set in the context where Rama has just killed Vali, and Tara
comes to know of the tragedy. She rushes to see her dead husband, and the
poem is about her lamentation, and her exhorting Rama to kill her too.
2. It begins, "atha vidita vRttAntA ...", and the metre is one that is at
least longer than Vasantatilaka.
3. One source suggests the author is a certain 'shAntarAja', but I do not
know how accurate it is.
4. It was part of a non-detailed text in Sanskrit in the PUC board exams in
Karnataka about 40 years ago.
Please let me know if you've heard of this poem.
Thanks,
Mohan
