I have put your link on my content. /Sarvesh Srivastava, 06-10-2002 Hi, I was going through this site in one page where u mention the meanings of personnel names, where i expected hindu names, why do we require this meanings of personnel names when we dont use these names, put some hindu names in this place so that this page will be useful, western names no one will have least idea that there names meanings will be found here, hope u will change this page with something useful to us. http://www.veda.harekrsna.cz/encyclopedia/names.htm /Sailaja, 07-10-2002 hare krasna so your views on woman, position of women in vedic society are very upsetting and NOT TRUE. you are using examples and views from Smriti and vedanta which are much letter then Vadic period and are already manupulated by rise of hindu believes. In Vadic times women were entitled to same eduacation in all sense as man.there are known woman who not only contributed to original vedas; also performed 'yagna' and maintained independent spiritual practice. First woman woul be "Lopamudra".Others would be "maitreyi" and "Gargi" both of them officially participated and won 'yagnavalkya"in philosophy and spiritual debates in the court of king Janak. From the time of Rigved Sanhita There were two recognised classification of such woman_ 1) "brahvadini_one who was bramhacharini; got "diksha" or "upnayan sanskar" right to gayatri yagna and other vedic rituals. 2) sadyavadini_one who got married and on the time of merriage got "upnayan sanskar" right to gayatri puja and yagna. As time passed these became less ans less practised. My knowlege comes from somebody who ahd first handedly studied Vedas and was also an initiated ISCON devotee. I would request you to be more"open minded" with your interpretations and message.MOreover if you say these are your on view of the matter it is acceptable BUT to pass it is as "the absolute truth according to vedas" is pure ignorence and very unfortunate. hope you help people through your teaching of dharma, that is what Prabhupada would have wanted in any case. /kananshree vyas, 30-10-2002 Has a Vedic encyclopedia and Vedic library with a wide selection of subjects covered.

However, I find some discrepancies in the write-up as I was born into the tradition that the author was trying to describe albeit imperfectly. If the Vedic Encyclopedia needs some research on Voodoo and Vedic connection I think it is better to contact African Vaisnavas from this region.

Blessings, /Mindy Paige, college student, 06-11-2006 I was going thru yr site yesterday and the way you have organized everything allows for easy navigation and instant clarification of the topic on hand. Great resource. /Vrndavan dasa ACBSP, USA, 15-02-2007 (re www.arisearjuna.org:) Its still under major construction. Also if you wanted to submit articles I'd be happy. Do you by any chance have some titles or degrees? Either way it does not matter just helps the uninformed feel more confident. But just based on yr work you are undoubtably a learned scholar. Let me know if you want to be one of our official scholars. /Vrndavan dasa ACBSP, USA, 15-02-2007 You have such a wonderful tool, so I would use it in my work. /Bala Keshava dasa, Russia, 06-03-2007 I found your site extremely interesting and full of informative materials. /Sourav Choudhury, University of Delhi anthropologist, France, 06-03-2007 I checked both the www.vrindavan-dham.com and www.veda.harekrsna.cz you listed and I was very impressed with both of them. /Mayesvara dasa ACBSP, US NAVY, Ojai, USA, 20-03-2007 I'm interested in reprinting your in-depth Ekadasi compilation article on Krishna.com. If you give me permission, I will feature it as "further reading" on our existing Krishna.com Ekadasi page. By the way, I love your site.

We wish to congratulate you, your website design is highly attractive, rich in content and particularly well organized. /Das dd, webmaster, www.bhaktivedantas.com, 23-04-2007 The more I get into VEDA, the better I like it. It's a great site with _a lot_ of resources. Until now I've only seen a small part of it, but I suspect it beats the BBT's krishna.com in many respects. Is it ok to extract some of VEDA's content and re-arrange it in the form of online-books in order to make material for a particular purpose more easily accessible? /Phanisvara dasa JPS, webmaster, Bharat/India, 06-05-2007 Thank you for your interesting web site. /Rupa, volunteer, Krishna.com, 06-05-2007 Your website is very useful and impressive.

I've been a devotee for 20 yrs in Melbourne Australia (more in the background since having children) and have craved such outlines - your website is a treasure chest! Particularly like anything which compares Vedic philosophy/cosmology etc with Western philosophy and science. Loved the summary of Suhotra's Swami's work on Mayavadi philosophy and like the questions and answers components in the 'philosophical issues' part of Bhakti Yoga and elsewhere. Your website is a great pre-digested resource for us time-urgent devotees! best wishes, /John Dunlop, Melbourne, Australia, 08-05-2008 Thanks for the info. you're right. general readers can still benefit from all the wonderful information you have on your site. I was simply concerned with that one page and the sastric authenticity of its statements. you're doing a great job and a wonderful service so please keep up the good work. I'm sure Srila Prabhupada and the previous acaryas appreciate it! /Bhakta Dave, 02-06-2008 Many congratulations for such a fantastic website on Hindu history and its global connections.

Your contribution will help in the government recognition of Vaisnava festivals here, which I think in terms of Lord Krishna's satisfaction, the benefit should speak for itself :-) Your servant, /Janmastami dasa, Dublin, Ireland, 9-10-2008 I read with great interest your site about Vedic Astrolgy, but have some questions which you might answer. /Hendrik Hoeve, Netherlands, 29-10-2008 Dear Bh.

I sincerely appreciate it. /Satish Kumar, Dallas, TX, USA, 24-01-2009 You may remember me from past years, we exchanged links for Hare Krishna Tempel (ISKCON Göteborg, Sweden). I am still running the Göteborg website, but since 2004 I also develop an independent website called Hare Krishna Guide. In many ways it is a project similar to your excellent VEDA, but the Guide is in Swedish, approaching a Swedish audience (of devotees or non-devotees) in general, and school students in particular. You may look at the Guide here: www.omnirasa.com/harekrishnaguide As I may have told you before, I deeply appreciate the VEDA site, and I consider it to be the most user-friendly and attractive source of Vedic knowledge on the Internet, as far as I know. I must admit, that in many respects I almost feel like giving up my Guide project every time I realize that it is actually already more or less complete in the form of the VEDA site! /Bhakta Mikael Sjodin, Sweden, 22-04-2009 thnx for veda.harekrsna Vedic Encyklopedia great job, great servis.... skvělou práci, skvělé služby :)) /Nilamadhava das, Zagreb, Hrvatska (Croatia), 03-05-2009 ...he referred to your site.

My name is Ekendra dasa, I live in Alachua, Florida, USA, and for the past year I've been part of the new Krishna.com Editorial Support Team. We're in the process of re-constructing the site to be more intuitive, reasonable, and welcoming to the casual visitor who may not at all be familiar with Krishna consciousness. It's going to take a while. I was spending some time on veda.harekrsna.cz today, and I found many things there that I liked very much - such as your thoroughly satisfying references on the Maha-mantra and your Introduction section. Would you be willing to discuss the possibility of Krishna.com using some of the VEDA content? I was just so favorably impressed that I felt I ought to get in touch right away and introduce myself. Thanks for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

Only one thing I suggest; you need to provide the exact reference when you are presenting any Vedic texts. Otherwise it loses credibility. Other than that your work is wonderful. I was looking at your August 18 update on Caitanya in Vayu Purana, and it does not quote any reference of where in the Vayu Purana this is stated. Also, the word for word translation is missing from verse 49 till 66. Maybe it is missing indadvertedly, so I am just informing you. Once again thank you for the wonderful work you are doing.
