The forwarded article on Sulekha.com below has a link to an interesting
article by Paul Siparsky of Stanford Univ. about the
two-dimensional arrangement of sanskrit letters in the
Siva sutras:
http://www.ece.lsu.edu/kak/siva-t1.pdf
For the novice among us:
The Siva suutras are a set of 11 short phrases in sanskrit
that are said to have emanated out of Lord Nataraja's Damaruka
while he was dancing.
They enumerate the entire sanskrit alphabet, but grouped
scientifically, as article above explains.

A small correction:
Siva sutras are 14 in number (not 11), and
you can see them in Devanagari script at the following website:

Dear Shaiva, Smaarta Friends,
AUM Nama: Shivaaya.
All of you are Shiva_Bhaktaa's are experts in the Knowledge of & about
Lord Shiva.
However, as a Shiva_Sevaa, I am writing here a few lines about some
important Shiva_Vrata performances.
To my limited knowledge, there are Four Important Shiva_Vrata
Performances. Viz.
1)Shivaraatree : the 14th Kalaa of Moon in the KrushNa_Paxa period. i.e.
When Moon moves in the Angular Space such that the lines Sun_To_Earth and
Earth_To_Moon make an angle between 336 to 348 Deg.
2)PradoSha : the 13th Kalaa of Moon in the KrushNa_Paxa period. i.e. When
Moon moves in the Angular Space such that the lines Sun_To_Earth and
Earth_To_Moon make an angle between 324 to 336 Deg.
3)Ekaadashee : The 11th Tithee in the Shukla and KrushNa Paxa i.e. When Moon
moves in the Angular Space such that the lines Sun_To_Earth and
Earth_To_Moon make an angle between 120 to 312 Deg. (in Shukla Paxa) and 300
to 312 Deg. (in the KrushNa_Paxa).
4)Somavaara A Day of the Seven Day Week (First Working Day following the
Holiday on Sunday in the Modern Practice)
In one Solar year, (on an average) there are 12 Shivaraatree's, 12
PradoSha's 24 Ekaadashee's and 52 Somavaara's making a total of 100 Days
which can be considered as Specially Auspicious to perform
Shiva_Vrata_Poojaa_Aaraadhanaa.
However, many Somavaara's may coincide with some of the Shivaraatree's,
PradoShaa's or Ekaadashee's thus reducing the total no. of days in a year.
Therefore, Lord Shiva has been kind to Grant Special Status and
Significance to the performance of such Soma_Shivaraatree's,
Soma_PradoShaa's and Soma_Ekaadashee's, so that his followers gain higher
Level of PuNyaarjana while practicing these Special days.
Further, Somavaara days in the Months of ShraavaNa and Kaartika are
also similarly granted with Special Status and Significance. If a
Shraavana_Somavaara or Kaartika_Somavaara is also associated with
Shivaraatree, PradoSha or Ekaadashee then the Status of such a Day is
considered to rise further.
Tomorrow, Monday, 21st Aug. 2006 is one such day of TriveNee_Sangama of
it's being a 1)Somavaara in 2)Shraavana and associated with 3)Shivaraatree.
Shiva_Bhaktaa's may kindly take advantage of this Special Triply
Significant Day.
On Shivaraatree's, and Ekaadashee's, there is a Recommended Upa_Vaasa
(Commonly practiced as Fasting) for all 24 Hours (even for 72 Hours in case
of TriRaatra_Vratadhaaree's). One can fast as is permissible to his Age,
Sex, Health and Family Traditions. The Best is to limit the Food intake to
Fruits and Liquids such as Fruit Juices, Fruit Shakes Milk, Curds, (Tea,
Coffee, Butter Milk, Water) etc.
More important than this Fasting in the Plane of the Physical_Body is
spend time in Mental_Intellectual_Nearness with Lord Shiva.
This is achieved by spending as much time as possible, in Shiva
Aaraadhanaa, which can be a) Performance of Shiva_Poojaa, b)Reciting of
Shiva_Mantra_Stotraadikaa's c) Reading Shiva_Saahitya and trying to
understand Shiva_Svaroopa & Shiva_Leelaa's described in this literature.
There are a number of ancient Veda_SuUktaa's and Upanishadic, PauraaNic
Texts in SansKRuta.
In addition there are many Shiva_Stotraa's written by Great Scholars such
as Shankaraachaarya, Pushpadanta, etc. which are as sacred as
Veda-Upanishadic VaaNmayaa's.
Many of them are available on Internet at URLs such as :
A) http://sanskrit.gde.to/
B) http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/
C)http://astrojyoti.com/PuranasSanskrit.htm
Shiva_Bhaktaa's may take advantage of these facilities and read as many
Original SansKRuta Texts as possible.
Thanking all of you for your kind patience and consideration to allow me
to Repeat what most of you might have already known well,
Yours Sincerely,
Dr. Ghare, Sunday, 20th August 2006,
