If you would like to see the proper Sanskrit characters on this site, then you will need to install the appropriate fonts: Sanskrit98 and Translit98. (Also remember that if you want to print anything out, you can use the pdf files provided).
These two fonts are provided free of charge to the World Community by Swami Omkarananda and the kind people at the Omkarananda Ashram in Uttaranchal, India, within sight of the Himalayas and the Ganges.
