Dear Colleagues,

Just wanted to share that I was able to locate the reference with the help of Mr Shankara from BVP Forum. Thanks to him. Just in case someone is interested:



However, I do not think I will be able to have access to a PDF of this book sooner. Thanks to all of help.

Dear Colleagues,

Many years back I had come across an edition/book that included a poetic translation of the Meghadūta of Kālidāsa into all Indian/South Asian languages. I do recall there was also a poetic translation into Kashmiri by Arjun Dev Majboor (1924-2015). I cannot recall who had edited/published this book, or even the complete title of the book. Would someone have any idea about this?

Since we started re-reading Meghadūta recently, I really wanted to read the Kashmiri rendering again. Many years back I had attempted a poetic Kashmiri translation of a few verses of the Kumārasaṃbhava that I lost. The self-reflexive quarantine situation is making me think about such attempts yet again. Any help in finding the above book would be highly appreciated.
