Our humble prostrations to all the Mahatmas and Gurus for their valuable guidance throughout this iconic process. Our heartfelt gratitude to the Sanskrit scholars for their in-depth research and analysis in helping us obtain the right diction and pronunciation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
A few interesting elements about this iconic process:
* Ishaan Pai learnt and imbibed this stotra completely through oral tradition. (No book, only by listening).
* A 1.5 yrs of incredible, incessant, innocent journey of learning.(from Ishaan's 6.5 yrs of age to 7.11 yrs). Ishaan's age is 7.11 years at the time of this video release.
* Sincere and rigorous training and practice of Bhagavan's ‘Nama’ as a Tapas, every single morning.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
A few points to note with reference to the pronunciation for keen learners.
* ‘Visarga’ rules are followed with extra care.
* Since the ‘Anuswaara’ rule is optional, we have avoided it between two words. This will help the new learners too, especially children.
* With many Mahatmas and scholars guiding us, we have gone for soft consonant la/ल and not La/ள/ള/ळ in this entire chanting. The letter La/ள/ള/ळ does not feature in the Maheshwara sutraani which is the basis of Paninian grammar. People who speak south Indian languages and Marathi will be used to using hard consonant La/ள/ള/ळ in slokas like ‘पवित्राणां पवित्रं यो मङ्गलानां च मङ्गलम् । - ‘pavitrāṇāṃ pavitraṃ yo maṅgalānāṃ ca maṅgalam’. This is because of mother tongue influence. Please note that Vedic rules of pronunciation are different though with oral tradition so obvious in it.
