Comments : Namaskara:  I find this method of teaching to be very unique.   If I may, I would like to suggest that it makes it better if Sanskrit translations are given in Sanskrit script also.

Comments : It was very nice to read about your hard hitting article about the bias by Radio City. Thanks to OurKarnataka.Com team. Kudos to you. It is a pity that some of our own people another Karnataka website) rush to defend such companies, giving the excuse that they are private channels and can do whatever they want, to stay in business. And they call anyone who talk about Kannada as fanatics. 

They have a magic word for everything-Globalization. This word is used as an excuse to suppress the cause of Kannada by giving endless lectures about the need of English, and open up to a new world, new economy, blah blah blah!  Nobody questions the importance of English in today's world, we have to accept it, I know. But should we have a slavish mentality towards it and the MNCs, all in the name of liberalization and globalization? 

While I don't approve of violent actions by some elements who bring a bad name to Kannada activists, what harm is there in protesting decently, like you did in this site? You guys are doing a great work, its nice to visit your site. Thanks.

Comments : greetings!  i'm definitely enjoying your site and i'm trying to slowly teach myself Sanskrit.  i have a small request however.  i'm having a hard time translating a few words (words that i'd eventually like to turn into a tattoo).  if you could tell me how to translate the words "lucky boys confusion" into Sanskrit, it would be *greatly* appreciated!  thank you!

User Name : Deepu
Comments : Dear Editor,
From a long time, I've been curious to read about Ganapathi Sacchidananda Swami.
One of my friends is a great devotee of this man, and the way he speaks about
the Swami is really interesting. However, I had heard a lot of controversy
surrounding this character, and by reading this article, I got to know that he
is nothing but a common fraud and a thief.

It is really sad that the so-called people in power--politicians and even
police--are after his blessings! The blessings of a thief, a rogue and a crook!
Even though he has so many criminal cases against him, it's surprising that he
has not gone to court even once!

I think the people should be blamed for his popularity. If they stop believing
in his "magic," he will be ruined automatically. Anyhow, thanks for the article, please keep me posted if there is any more news about him.
Respectfully Yours, Deepu

RSS-Story is excellent. Keep it up.

User Name : Jáder França
Comments : Excellent !!! I loved the material "Learn Sanskrit". Could you develop anything further?
OKC: Please visit
Learn Sanskrit for more. 

User Name : Ravikumar 
Comments : I am a regular visitor to your site. I wish to congratulate you on your excellent contents. Unfortunately, the kannada font size used is very small, making it hard to read. One has to strain their eyes to read the content. It would be very helpful if you increase the size of your kannada font, so that it is easier to read and also appealing. 
thanks  Ravi
OKC: We are sorry to hear that, but the solution is simple enough. If you are using Internet explorer, please click on "View", then select "Text Size".. now increase or decrease the font size depending on your comfort. There is similar way in Netscape. Remember though, that the font size will be the same, even if you leave the site and surf some other site.

Comments : Very sad to see the caption singular 'Devadigara huduga Bhattanaada kathe'. in the article, plural is used like 'shetru', 'devadigaru' etc. But when it comes to 'Bhat' it has become 'Bhatta'!

User Name : Rama 
Comments : First think about Country and then talk about regional feeling. Every Indian should think about country then only our country will become developed. Also be proud that your place is giving opportunities to others.

User Name : Kundoori 
Comments : In the recipe for Masala -Khara -Biscuit, ingredients don't match with the details in the method to do the same. Kindly check and correct the same. It is very misguiding and confusing to anyone who sees the recipe.
OKC: Thanks a lot for letting us know about this one. WE apologize and will repair it as soon as we can. 

User Name : Kundoori 
Comments : you say Spicy pumpkin without coconut... but under the ingredients, you have mention coconut. Suggest you pay more attention to what you are doing.
OKC: Thanks a lot for letting us know about this one. WE apologize and will repair it as soon as we can.

Comments : Hi,
There is no information or article about 'YAKSHAGANA', the unique art of
karnataka in this site. Can you please include...?
OKC: Thanks for the suggestion and we will try to include this one for sure.

User Name : Ramshid 
Comments : Dear sir,
Some of the information which you have given in this article is misleading .you are telling the status of women is equal now in all respects. How we can say that sir? Here can we find any women as a leader for any devotional activities in any religions? Are the women getting the equal wages for equal work? Is there the equal participation of women in Indian politics and law making? And also you are telling that the decline of the women in India starts with the entering Islam. It is a misleading sentence can read & find a lot of books written by great sociologists pointing the women status increased in India by offering the equality for women in property, marriage ,divorce etc in Islam.
Ramshid.

Comments :
Kharabath is not tasty. It contains less matter and more examples/quotes. Seems author is trying to justify his so called Ninagaagi. (A sequence of open love letters)
OKC:
Kharabath and Ninagaagi  and written by two different people, but we will try to improve Kharabath so that it "tastes" better.  (bitter ??)

User Name : Ritu Bhatt
Comments : This is utter crap! put something that is more easy solve and less to concentrate.

Comments : Hi, I was very happy to bump into this site. I'm a pakka Kannadiga, browsed the site and was very happy to know that it's so informative. But I have one complaint, in your recipes section, why you don't have any lingayat recipes. There are so many good lingayat recipes, please include them.
OKC: Thank you for the suggestion, maa'm and we will start  working on it right away.

OKC: Thank you sir, and We will convey the message.

User Name : Vikram 
Comments : The article about the Mouryan empire ruling Karnataka is very interesting. I was thinking of a permanent feature about Karnataka itihasa on this website. May be an up to date list on the the various dynasties who ruled Karnataka will be a nice addition to this already very informative and classy website. Also something like this will increase awareness about Kanrnataka itihaasa. What do you think? 
Vikram
OKC: Great Idea sir, we will definitely shoot for it.

Subject : KANNADA MOVIES IN USA
Kannadigas in USA have a very few opportunities to watch the Kannada movies in theatre. So Kannada film industry should think over it. Whenever I search for movies in USA in some websites always i end up with either Hindi or Telugu or Tamil movie shows in theatres. There are many Kannada people in USA who want to watch Kannada movies. The movie "Nanna Preetiya Hudugi" showed in Detroit was a success. So please release some more good movies in USA. 

This is one story about Kannada movies in Theatre. There is another story, as Kannadigas get hardly few opportunities to watch movies in theatre, many people rent the video cassettes. But unfortunately Kannadigas seldom get some movies for renting. The vedeo cassettes are of bad quality. That too instead of some super hit good movies most of them are super flop movies. We all miss the good movies of Dr Rajkumar and other great stars. Hindi movies like "Lagaan", "Gadar","Taal", "Mohabbatein" and many other made more money after their release in USA. So Please make those good Kannada movies available for the Kannadigas in USA. This also helps us to keep in touch with kannada film Industry and with Karnataka which we miss a lot.

Comments : hello I am student ,I want to cook chicken delicacies of Karnataka particularly the gowda style pulav but i am not finding the recipe for that  i visited this site i am facing a problem in viewing only the gowda recipes. could you please help me in fixing that and could you provide me more of the gowda recipes.
OKC: thanks for the suggestion. We will add them as soon as possible. Some of the recipes are old and you need baraha fonts to read them.

User Name : Mambady Ashoka
I think author has forgotten that he is also an Indian when he wrote 'Bharatheeyarige Nanna Dhikkara'!. I don't know why the author failed to look at the positive side of Indians. The wave of change is everywhere in the world and not limited only to India. Being a responsible citizen, one should think of correcting the social evils rather than putting ill comments on them. 

To end with, Mother is always Mother, irrespective of whether she is beautiful
or not. India is Mother for all of us. 

User Name : Bill Head 
Comments : To say that America is responsible for terrorism is ignorance at its worst. My prayer to God is that someday  all Muslims will be asked to leave America's shores. We do not as a people want them here. I believe that from my soul. You people need to go back to your own country. I am on my knees praying for your departure. Don't tread on this country. If you don't like it, get the "Hell" out of it.
OKC: May we suggest that not everyone in any religion is an angel. We have villains in every community but we can not blame the entire community which would be foolish!

Comments : I am unable to view Sanskrit and kannada characters using IE 5.5 and 6 versions as well as Netscape 6. Setting as advised by you for either of the browsers or installing Baraha fonts again (as I am already using Baraha) does not help). This problem is annoying and takes away the pleasure of surfing for information. A suggestion: The rendering of music / voice under Sanchan for devaranama is not of a good or attractive quality; but the effort itself deserves congratulations!

User Name : Satyanarayan V. Joshi 
Comments : Hi, This is Satya again. I think the problem with FONTS is there with the first few pages of GADEGALU. If I open them and try to any other web pages on your site, the font will be corrupted. The latest links of GAADEGALU are working fine. - Satya Joshi

OKC: We did see some problems and corrected it. In any case, Please use the latest Browsers and download baraha2000a (not the latest Baraha!). If you follow the installation instruction and use
Font Problems page.. you should be ready to go.

Both Sides of the Story!
Response from the writer to Bhaskar Chakrapani's Views on Dr.Raj Article.
Mr. Chakrapani must know how he should write and it’s of no use in shouting from rooftops and calling other stupid or ignorant. He cannot shut the mouths of hundreds of thousands of people who are criticizing Rajkumar and his family for the deeds, behavior during the time of his captivity.  Here, the question of humanism doesn’t arise at all. I have neither any grudge nor any ill feeling about Rajkumar and his family. Let Mr. Chakrapani come to his senses before coming to such unwanted conclusion. That’s all.  Read On
