Here
are some reactions from people who have tried it:
"What
I appreciate about your video, among other things, is the
practice of relating directly to the Devanagari, without transliteration,
as a way to transcend the limitations of my monolingualism/English.
The way you have the video set up makes learning the Devanagari
seem "natural" and easy, just like the beautiful nature scenes
in the background."
-- Dianne Kanondaga,
Arjuna Movement Arts
"I
have ordered from you before, and I have always been very
happy with both the service and of course the product!"
-- Denise Covarrubias
"I
got "Gateway to Sanskrit" and watched it, during my lunch
break, all the way through Chapter 5 so far. I LOVE what you've
done here. This is fabulous! My first time through and I'm
reading some of the words before I actually hear what they
are! And recognizing numbers too! It is so beautiful and such
fun. I love having the beautiful pictures of nature in the
background, and the uncluttered look of each new sound/letter.
I love the children's drawings and the way you use the sutras
to help teach the language. It is all so beautiful. The voice
is clear and very gentle and supportive and the pacing is
just right.
I
have studied Sanskrit, taken weekend trainings and studied
with a tape set but felt really stuck and still the only thing
I could recognize was OM. But now, after just part way through,
I am reading devanagari script and loving it. You have re-inspired
me in my studies. I am sure that after using your DVD I will
be able to return to the Sanskrit materials I already have
and get so much more from them. You are a true teacher."

"I was so excited about the tape. Within
the first few seconds I was already learning. It was amazing!"
--Ann Russ Desautels, Social Worker
"I initially was anxious that its content would be overly-esoteric,
or even 'over my head' -- but as I got 'into' it, I realized
what a wondrous boon it is to my continuing forays into N.
Indian and Tibetan Buddhism... and I learned anybody can do
this."
-- Scott Key
"It
is such an easy process! It goes back to the way that kids
remember... Even after just one chapter I was already seeing
Sanskrit writing a new way, with definite parts. It didn't
look like Chinese anymore."
-- Fanny Santiago Saavedra,
PhD Candidate in Alternative Healing
"Thank
you for your great video. I am watching it regularly. It is
so well done -- a pleasure to see the symbols -- and the scenes
are so lovely and well done in the background. I find that
it is opening my intuition greatly. Each symbol is so beautifully
designed and so rich. "
-- Carmen R. Delano
"I
watched your video. It was really great. I feel like I can
learn Sanskrit. It was so beautiful, well done and easy.
Good job!"
-- Nikki Harmony, Mother and Artist
"It's
amazing how many Sanskrit words are like an English word!"
-- Jerry Beck II, Business Owner
