I have heard the following sloka and I'm sure this forum must have discussed it
earlier too...
upamA kAlidAsasya bhArave artha gauravam |
dandiNa: pada lAlityam mAghe santi trayo guNaa: ||
My question is not about this sloka perse, but the fact that while kAlidAsa and
others are quoted frequently, I cannot find much about mAgha, who, we are told
has all the three virtues. wikipedia.org has about 4 lines describing mAgha.
I have been looking for the shishupAla-vadha text, which has intricate poetry,
is it available online? Are there are any other works of mAgha ?

meghaduuta 3. vaag is of raghuvamsha.The embarassing question was posed to

Greetings to this esteemed community from CK, a student of Sanskrit.
In school, i remember our teacher mentioning Asthi kaschith vaag viseshaha' as
the first words uttered by an enlightened Kalidasa
Will someone kindly throw more light on the meaning and context of this usage ?
I am a corporate trainer and liberally use subhashitas and Gita to illustrate
management concepts and it very well received by the participants.
And there is so much learning in this forum.
Best wishes

The whole section is worth a read, but if you're in a hurry, the last para
in page 46 to page 47 is the most amazing part of it all. It is an example
from the? Padukasahasram that has been spoken about here before (the one
with the ya.ya.ya.ya..(ya^32) verse), and solves the Knight's
tour<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight%27s_tour>problem very nicely,
and makes another verse out of it to boot!
There is a similar verse in yamaka bhArata of aanandatIrtha with the letter
bhA.? There are 32 meanings for the word bhA.? Just for your information. The
first knight's tour poem occurs in haravijaya of ratnAkara, if I remember
right. There is a similar knight's tour poem in vEnkaTAdhvarI's lakshmIsahasarm
too. I have these poems with me.

Thanks for this very fine verse a view of a devotee.

The context is from Ramayana. The dramatized by the poet Murari. Jambavan,

of his friendship, he gives the example of his brother Kubera, the lord of

is suffering the poverty in spite of his his friendship with Kubera sharing
the same Mountain Kailasa:
"His carrier is a bull, ornaments made of garland of bones, anointment for

of poverty of Shiva, the destroyer of the three Cities, in spite of his

Respected Shri Jambunath-ji Sir,
Thank you very much for your reply. I am happy because you
have actually reproduced the line printed in Devanaagari: ????????????? ?.?.?
??????? ???? ??????? ?????? ????? ????? ???????
People with whom I had discssed this verb, did say that they believed 'jayate'
is of the vedic origin but no one could show it to me in print. The editions
we, all said 'jayati'.
The two editions of the ????????????? which I have seen are some ten years
apart(between 1950 and 1960)and were both published by Geeta Press Gorakhpur
and they both say 'jayati'.
Last year I had spoken to Geeta Press people on phone from Mumbai but they did
not come back; I had then sent an email, followed by a reminder after some two
months but as it has happened, I have not received their response.
Would you, therefore, kindly favour me with the edition year and who the
publisher is from where you have extracted the line ??????? ???? ??????? ??????
????? ????? ???????
Sorry for the trouble I am giving you.

sa - as in saguna
Sa - as in Sakuni
Sha - as in ruShi

I was talking to one of my Kannada friends and he was teasing that Telugu and
Tamil people pronounce Shiva as siva and that is wrong. I want to know what is
correct according to sanskrit so that I can correct myself and my kids also on

Sakuni, Siva, Sriirama, gaNeSa, etc. all use "S"
seeta, sukha, sulabha, seemantini, etc. all use "s"
usha, R^ishi, kR^ishi, vishaya, nimisha, etc. all use "sh."
The usage is the same in Sanskrit and Telugu.

Actually, confusion of the sibilants is rife all over India. I have seen
very good Sanskrit scholars from the north confuse 'Sa' and 'Sha'. Lot
of Prakrits collapsed all three into 'sa'. So it is not just Tamilians
(who might have borrowed 'siva' from a Prakirt rather than Sanskrit).
Anyway, 'sa' is the most familiar: the tip of your tongue almost touches
your teeth. For 'Sa', the flat top of your tongue touch the roof of your
mouth; sah 'cha' and then reduce the contact between the tongue and
palate. For 'Sha', the tip of your tongue curves back and touches the
roof of your mouth.
Try saying 'nishchaya' and 'iShTa' and you should be able to feel the
difference.

Nath Rao

A poor poet tired of pleasing the lords for his living, addressing a deer
expresses his disgust against his fate of poverty that made him dependent on
the rich people. There are many other shloka-s of this type, which are
addressed to somebody else and express some strong feelings of the poet
against the social malpractices. One of the anyapadesha- poems is
MahishaShatakam of Neelakantha Deekshita, in which he address a buffallo
(representing the society, humorous element included ridicules) in which he
collects social criticism as a poet at in the society at his time. This one
attracted me much:
??? ??????? ??????????? ? ?????? ?????? ? ?????? ????

O deer,
You do not look into the face of the rich lords , nor do you sing songs in
their praise (in the hope of pleasing them); You do not have to hear their
arrogant reproaches nor do you run towards them in any hope (bearing insult
in the hope of receiving their help). You can eat tender grass in time (when
you are hungry, without depending these rich masters) and sleep at the time
you feel sleepy (without waiting for anything).
Tell me, what kind of penance (tapas) you had performed (to achieve such a
free and fortunate life).
Hope you all will enjoy this.

Subject: [Sanskrit] Why Lord Shiva drank poison Halahala?
To: sanskrit@cs.utah.edu

A poet imagined the reason in his vision why Lord Shiva drank poison
Halahala? Here is the imagination
?????? ??????? ????? ?????????? ?????????? ???
?? ? ?????????? ???? ? ?????????????? ???????? |
???? ??????????????? ??????? ????????
?????????? ? ??? ?????????????????? ???????? |||
The hungry serpent wants to eat the mouse, the carrier of Ganapati. And the
peacock, (the carrier) of Kumara (who broke the Krauncha mountain) want s
(to eat) it (the serpent). The lion, (the carrier) of Parvati, also wants
(to eat) the elephant faced Ganapati. Parvati envies Ganga, the river and
the moon is heated by the fire in the forehead (eye). Dusgusted with this
family quarrel, Lord Shiva himself drank poison Halahala (unable to see his
family quarreling each other!).
*Note:*
The mouse is the food of the snake, and the snake in its turn is the food of
the Peacock. The elephant is the enemy of the Lion. Gauri and Ganga are
co-wives of shiva, who are always quarreling with each other. The moon is
cold rayed and the fire in the third eye is burning every thing which caused
the enmity between the two. Thus under these unfavorable circumstances,
Shiva had no other way than committing himself suicide even though he is the
head of the family. This picture is analogous to a human family in the
vision of the poet.Very funny picture. [?] Isn't it?
Puranic Legends:
1. When the Gods and Demons churned the ocean for getting the Amruta, from
the ocean, making the Meru churning rod and the serpent Vasuki as the rope,
first of all came out of the sea only the poison Halahala. On being
requested by them, Shiva appeared and drank the Halahala. This is the
Puranic Legend back ground. The other things are guessed from the Puranic
accounts of the descriptions of Shiva and his retinue.
2. Kraunchapati - This epithet, refers to Kumara or Shanmukha in a way.
Kumara, the son of Parvati, had the training in fighting along with the sage
Parashurama. Once they engaged into competition on shooting arrows. The
target goal was Krancha, the mountain. By the shooting of arrows both of
them pierced the Mountain. But the epithet as Kraunchavidarana is associated
with Kumara only than Parashurama.
