Dear list members,

I would like to know if any among the learned indologists here speak Kannada and would like to help me out to broadly figure the discussion on the rājasūya performed in Karnataka. The event was recently covered in the local channel TV9 and followed by a discussion which is accessible via youtube in 5 parts:

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFZ90yE_QlM
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eEVsCMKro8
Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00kCI_ttSSU
Part 4:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COQoboNFlTI
Part 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7v3nJFqgTw

I am particularly interested in the smārta vs śrauta discussion going on between the participants of the discussion, but any help you would be able to provide is highly appreciated. I am unfortunately completely ignorant of Kannada. 

I hope these links will be of interest to the Veda scholars in the list as well.

Best, 
Maitreya
