Thema: Balaram to Unicode Converter

[Baladeva]

Nein kein deutscher Text zum lesen - eigentlich nur ein Test von mir, ob der Balaram to Unicode Converter, auf dieser Webseite:
> > > http://gauranga.de/converter/ . . . . richtig arbeitet u. wie es aussieht tut er es. Wird nun wahrscheinlich nicht gleich jede wissen worum es geht, ist auch nicht nötig. Vielen herzlichen Dank für die super Software - geht an HariMohan aus Berlin - www.gauranga.de.

Hier also wer es haben will, das Nṛsiṁha-kavaca welches vorher in Balaram Fonts geschrieben war und normalerweise nur sehr umständlich in eine WebSeite eingebunden werden konnte. Dank des etwas neueren Formats UTF-8 - http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8 und dem besagten Converter ist das nun ein Kinderspiel.

Lord Nṛsiṁha roars loudly and causes others to roar. With His multitudes of arms He tears the demons asunder and kills them in this way. He is always seeking out and tormenting the demoniac descendants of Diti, both on this earth planet and in the higher planets, and He throws them down and scatters them. He cries with great anger as He destroys the demons in all directions, yet with His unlimited hands He sustains, protects, and nourishes the cosmic manifestation. I offer my respectful obeisances to the Lord, who has assumed the form of a transcendental lion.

Prahlāda Mahārāja in the Brahmāṇḍa Purāṇa.
