यदि शब्दाह्वयं ज्योतिः आसंसारं न दीप्यते॥
idamandhaṁ tamaḥ kṛtsnaṁ jāyeta bhuvanatrayam
yadi śabdāhvayaṁ jyotiḥ āsaṁsāraṁ na dīpyate

The four of us met for the first time when we entered University of Madras in 1996, with a view to do graduate studies in Sanskrit. We have had illustrious teachers like Dr. N. Veezhinathan to guide us thro' our studies majoring in Vedanta. We have also tried to learn a bit of grammar from Dr. V. Abiramasundaram, RKM Vivekananda College. Our association has continued even after completion of M.A and has prompted us to start this blog.
