Many thanks to George Thompson, François Voegeli, Tim Cahill, Daniel Stender and Borayin Larios for your helpful replies and great references.

I will be writing back to you individually over the next few weeks to follow up -- (under some deadlines at the moment).

What an excellent group on this Indology list!

Dear James Hartzell and dear list members,

In addition to the great contributions from Finn, Nagaraj and others in the list to the topic of Vedic recitation traditions, I would also like to draw your attention to my own work dealing with contemporary Vedic recitation and Vedic schools from the state of Maharashtra.

 

My dissertation entitled: "Embodying Sacred Sound. The transmission of knowledge in traditional Vedic schools of contemporary Maharashtra" which was submitted last year here at the Heidelberg University should be published online later this year. 

Some of my articles are also available for download on Academia.edu (https://uni-heidelberg.academia.edu/BorayinLarios), and although they do not all deal exclusively with Vedic recitation, they do deal with issues that affect these traditions.

In addition, I would like to share a short film (about 15 min) that I edited to illustrate a typical day in a Vedic school in Satara Maharashtra. It is available on youtube through this link:

Some colleagues have found it a useful resource to teach in their introductory classes on Hinduism. I hope that you will find it useful too. Finally, here are also some photographs of Vedapāṭhakas from my fieldwork in case you are interested:

@Finn: for your online bilbliography I am sure you will find other works in the bibliography of my dissertation, If you want we can collaborate on this, I would be very interested to help you out. 

Please excuse this self-promotional email, but I am eager to share my work with the few people who can be potentially interested in what I do. 

Best,

Borayin Larios
