[INDOLOGY] four Sanskrit comic books

[Tyler Neill]

Dear List,

For over a decade, I've had in my possession two rare Amar Chitra Katha
comic books in Sanskrit (गंगा and भगवान् बुद्धः), given out by Sadananda
Das to students in his spoken Sanskrit summer course (Heidelberg, 2013). I
also discovered another one already digitized online (हनुमान्), plus one
more Sanskrit comic book (रामायण) that's not Amar Chitra Katha. Two of the
Amar Chitra Katha items clearly note the role of Pandit Gulam Dastgir, who
I believe was the translator of all three.

Checking now, I'm surprised to see that no one else has yet made these
items easily available online, e.g., on Archive. They are great learning
tools, if nothing else.

To fix this, I've now digitized my two and uploaded all four to Archive:
https://archive.org/details/amar-chitra-katha-ganga-sanskrit
https://archive.org/details/amar-chitra-katha-bhagavan-buddhah-sanskrit
https://archive.org/details/amar-chitra-katha-hanuman-sanskrit
https://archive.org/details/mystery-comic-book-ramayana-sanskrit

Please enjoy and share widely. Let me know if there are any copyright
concerns, or if I can improve the metadata to make them easier to find.
Also, if you have or know of additional Sanskrit comic books of this sort,
please be in touch, maybe I can continue organizing better access.

Kind wishes,
Tyler
