AN APPRECIATION
 
men and women, in India and elsewhere,
that Mr. Natesan has done a signal service
to the cause of Indian culture, by facili-
tating its due appreciation through his
recent publications in Sanskrit-the con-
densed editions of the Ramayana, the
Mahabharata and the Srimad Bhagavata
and through the present publication
of judiciously selected types of Sanskrit
Prayers, Praises and Psalms".
 
To every Hindu, the value of a prayer
in the Girvana-bhasha-the sacred language
of the Devas-is immense; and the value
of the publication of this comprehensive
collection of charming Sanskrit Prayers,
Praises and Psalms must indeed be very
great to every Hindu who believes in
prayer. The tender-minded and the tough-
minded alike will find good pieces of
devotional poetry in this volume, which
have a special appeal for them and
which they may chant in the strength
of their faith in God as Truth, Goodness,
Beauty, Bliss and Love-as Sat, Chit and
Ananda.
