[Advaita-l] 5th Edition of Global Festival of Oneness (GFO2024)

[Aravinda Rao]

Namaskars,
Bhashya parayanam is indeed a dream project which will help in several
ways. In addition to being in touch with bhashya, It would improve our
Sanskrit too. It is a great way of preserving Shankaracharya. My pranams to
those who have undertaken this work.
