Hi,
I was told that "Vishnu" is the only proper noun in sanskrit. Is that true
?
Does sanskrit have the same concept of nouns as english ?

Apparently you are referring to the grammar postulated by Srila Jiva
Goswamin (CE 1511-1506) of the Hare Krishna group. They refer to every word
which has grammatical meaning as 'vishnupada'. This however is not
universally accepted by sankritists.

Namaste,
There is a often quoted claim that the letters of gAyatri mantra are embedded
in the first letters of certain chapters in the vAlmIki rAmAyanaM.
Has anyone verified this and if so, post the relevant shlokas?
thanks,
Vikram

As found in the internet.
Gayatri Ramayana
The Valmiki Ramayana contains 24,000 verses. Sage Valmiki has hidden the 24
Beejaaksharas (seed letters) of the sacred Gayatri Mantra in these 24000 verses
(one Beejaakshara per thousand verses). The above collection of 24 verses which
carry the 24 Beejaaksharas is called as Gayatri Ramayana. It is said that by
chanting this everyday, one will acquire the same merit as one acquires by
chanting the entire Ramayana.

RK garu - Have you not see these verses of gaayatri
raamaayan and their detailes at endnote of Bala Kanda in
valmikiramayan.net site, together with samkshepa
raamaayaNa. I have given sarga/verse numbers there. Pl see
them. I was about to write about it to VS, and you sent
mail.
Vikramji - you may also see there. Somehow the word tR^i of
savitR^i vareNyam will have no verse and something
ununderstandable is said about it.

Namaste ,
I am Rishi Kumar and I subscribed myself recently to this group. I finished my
MS recently and I am currently working in an IT company.
Your discussions enlighten me with the deep cultural and spiritual knowledge
imbibed in our great country. I have often wondered how much I am missing by
not knowing samskritam very well.
I can understand the language and can also talk a little (I learnt rudra namak
chamakam, suktams, shabda rupaaha etc) . But I am in need for pointers from
elders to learn this language well so that I may be able to read and understand
this great language.
Dhanyavaadam,
Rishi
