Hi Sanskrit Lovers - I think you will enjoy this.


---------- Forwarded message ----------

रामकृष्णविलोमाकाव्यं - A rare palindromic poetry.
Sanskrit is famous for certain specialities, one of them being the Palindrome like "विकटकवि".
This poetic composition, which was written by the scholar Dyvagyna Surya Pandita in the 14th Century, is a marvelous example of palindromic verses.
It also has another speciality - This set of poems, when read forward relate to Rama and the Ramayana, and when read in reverse relate to Krishna and the Mahabharata. 
 
(Forward) तं भूसुतामुक्तिमुदारहासं वन्दे यतो भव्यभवम् दयाश्रीः ।
 
“I pay my homage to Him who rescued Sita, whose laughter is captivating, whose incarnation is
grand, and from whom mercy and splendor arise everywhere.”
 
(Backward) श्रीयादवं भव्यभतोयदेवं संहारदामुक्तिमुतासुभूतम् ॥
 
“I bow before that Sri Krishna, the descendent of Yaadava family; who is a divinity of the sun as
well as the moon; who destroyed Putana who only gave destruction; and who is the soul of all
this universe.”

Magical work indeed - I have come across it earlier. Though this work is in विलोम, there are several other similar works in Shlesha श्लेष - I remember reading about Raghavapandaveeyam (राघवपाण्डवीयम्) where the verses narrate the life of Srirama and Yudhishthira. Another small work in Shlesha is Raghavamadhavashtakam or राघवमाधवाष्टकम् (attached) by Swami Rambhadracharya. This is from the recently published Sastipurti Abhinandan Granth which has many other of small works by the poet.

Thanks, Nityanand
