Sources used in the study guide

Primary collections: Rig Veda, Yajur Veda, Sama Veda, Atharva Veda, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, and Ayurvedic texts.

Additional editions: Bhagavad-gita As It Is, translated and commented by A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada; Charaka Samhita; Sushruta Samhita; Ashtanga Hridaya; Madhava Nidana; Sharngadhara Samhita.

The starter guide uses a small, editable set of references and curated summaries. It does not search complete texts; answers are shown with source references.

Full-text coverage: 50 of 107 Upanishads reviewed

Full-text study notes currently cover the Isa and Kena Upanishads in Swami Paramananda’s Project Gutenberg edition, 30 texts reviewed in K. Narayanasvami Aiyar’s 1914 translation, and the Chandogya, Aitareya, and Kaushitaki Upanishads reviewed in Max Müller’s 1879 edition; and the Brihadaranyaka, Taittiriya, Mundaka, and Shvetashvatara reviewed in Robert Ernest Hume’s 1921 edition, alongside Prashna, Mandukya, and Maitrayani from that edition, plus Krishna from T. R. Srinivasa Ayyangar’s 1945 edition. Krishna and Garuda are fully reviewed from that volume. Turiyatita, Atma, Parabrahma, Bhavana, Ganapati, and Yajnavalkya have now been reviewed in full from the Sanskrit text in the 1925 third edition of Ishadi 108 Upanishad. The summaries are original and do not reproduce translations, commentary, or editorial notes. Of the 107 Muktika-list texts excluding Katha, 57 remain unprocessed. Other source names do not imply complete coverage.

Ayurveda study notes also introduce the Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridaya, Madhava Nidana, and Sharngadhara Samhitas from historical Sanskrit editions. These are preliminary thematic reviews, not verified complete-text reviews, and do not change the Upanishad count above. Historical medical material is for education, not diagnosis or treatment.

    Learning guides & source index

    Explore language learning, one verified source at a time.

    These concise, original summaries reflect specific material reviewed in private study records. The records and personal practice history are not published here. This is an educational source index, not AI training: the site’s study guide does not acquire language skills from these materials. Follow each cited source for context and detail.

    Sanskrit · grammar map

    Grammar topics in a syllabus

    A scanned Shastri Vyākaraṇa syllabus outlines topics including technical terms, sandhi, case meanings, and selected Aṣṭādhyāyī and Kāśikā reading ranges. This is a course map, not a Sanskrit lesson or full syllabus audit.

    Scope: Four pages were visually checked; OCR-based topic reading may be imprecise, and no Sanskrit scholar reviewed it.

    Kannada · early reading

    Build from words and everyday language

    The foreword to Karnataka Textbook Society’s revised 2022 Class 1 Savi Kannada names listening, speaking, reading, and writing, and introduces letters, everyday words, and short sentences as learning goals.

    Scope: A scan hosted by Internet Archive was reviewed; selected pages and the foreword do not verify individual letter sounds.

    Marathi · early literacy

    From picture talk to connected reading

    Maharashtra’s Grade 1 Marathi Balbharati contents sequence oral activities and vocabulary before letter groups, then move toward connected reading and short paragraphs.

    Scope: The contents and selected early pages were checked; later chapters were not reviewed, and this is a school text rather than an adult course.

    Punjabi · Gurmukhi

    Read dialogues with script and gloss

    The opening ACTDPL lesson pairs Gurmukhi dialogue with roman transcription and English glosses, including everyday greetings and conversation.

    Scope: Only opening dialogue rows were reviewed; lesson audio was not played, so this summary makes no pronunciation claims.

    Written English · clarity

    Make sentence boundaries clear

    The UNC Writing Center explains that a comma alone cannot join two complete sentences; revise a comma splice with a period, semicolon, conjunction, or subordinator.

    Scope: A concise starting point from one writing-center handout; punctuation choices still depend on sentence structure and context.
