FQV - Frequently Quoted Verses -

FQV - Frequently Quoted Verses

I decided to make my life easier and put together a small database to store verses that come in handy all in the same place. I am tired of browsing all over my hard drive and the forums to find the text I'm looking for.

So, now that it's together, I figured I could put it online for others as well. I'll add verses whenever I come across a useful one. Most verse translations are mine, though occasional exceptions are there, mainly from Jagat and sometimes from Advaitadas.

I hope it's useful to others, too.

Nicely done.

Wonderful. Was always hoping for something like this. It will need regular updating [expansion], though. There are many more 'main' shlokas for regular preaching.

If you like, I can create a subsection where you can post your verses of choice.

How do I do that? You know I dont use H-K spelling in my texts, but regular diacritics.

I could have the script convert it from Balaram to H-K on the fly. Otherwise, you could also post as regular diacritics, only the search function would be a bit more difficult to use.

If I post with regular diacritics will it be visible to all readers? Suppose not... sad.gif

I'll look into this tonight. I think I'll make a version where it converts verses to H-K on the fly, and the user can choose the output, he can either get it in H-K or have it converted to Balaram on the fly when retrieving texts.
