Sonsors
- (1L Rs) from Aditi Bannerjee via Indic academy.
Goal
Digitize and present the text of the mahAbhArata edition so laboriously and wonderfully recorded as part of this project - together with the audio. The text will (just like our audio files) be made available for free in markdown format - anyone can copy and reuse. Examples of such text with audio presentations:
- rAmAyaNa https://vishvAsa.github.io/purANam/rAmAyaNam/AndhrapAThaH/1_bAlakANDam/01-kathAmukham/001_sanxepa/
- raghuvaMsha https://vishvAsa.github.io/kAvyam/TIkA/padyam/kAlidAsaH/raghuvaMsham/01/
- kumArasambhava https://vishvAsa.github.io/kAvyam/TIkA/padyam/kAlidAsaH/kumArasambhavam/02/
- durgA saptashatI https://vishvAsa.github.io/purANam/durgA-saptashatI/01-prathama-charitam/
- rAmacharitamAnasa https://vishvAsa.github.io/kAvyam/TIkA/padyam/purANam/rAmacharitamAnasa-TIkA/02_ayodhyAkANDa/
- nArAyaNIyam https://vishvAsa.github.io/kAvyam/TIkA/padyam/purANam/nArAyaNIyam/003/
- several sAmans etc..
Estimated cost
I’ll get it done by a learned gentleman I’ve been employing for much of the past year (for fixing taittirIya saMhitA commentary and such). He’s very capable (I will supervise). I pay him by the hour - I can keep track of the time he spends and let you know - so that you can transfer the money directly. Off the top of my head, I estimate that it will him a month or two to accomplish the task (utilizing OCR, other digitized versions of the text).
