thread_title: Translation

message: The Indic script does not match the transliteration in several places - there are many minor mismatches. Looking at my copy of the Hanuman Chalisa, it looks as though the Devanagri is the incorrect one - should I go ahead and try to fix those?

message: http://www.stutimandal.com/new/poemgen.php?id=108
Please consider adding this link to this Chalisa page as a reference. We are ad-free, we have text in devanagari with an alternate translation. 
As for the query of previous person, "Mind is like a mirror since it reflects upon cognition with objects that it has seen in the past."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.32.171.31 (talk) 22:48, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Request from Stutimandal 

message: The article's text was recently replaced with several paragraphs of Hindi. I have reverted to a version substantially in English, as this is the English language Wikipedia. If any user wants to incorporate the Hindi text into the article, please do so with appropriate commentary and translation. Gonzonoir (talk) 10:09, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

message: The text is already in Wikisource, see the link at the right.  It has not to be repeated here. There is already a reference with the Wikisource logo pointing to the text. Wikisource is the place where original texts are deposited. The English text should be moved to the English Wikisource.  Andreas  (T) 15:32, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have removed the extended text. Wikipedia is not the place for it, per WP:NOFULLTEXT, and it is already on Wikisource. JohnCD (talk) 19:23, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

message: Initially when this page was created wikisource had the Hanumanchalisa now the link referred to has nothing. A good link could be at a knol of Hanuman Chalisa and if agreeable should be added.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.162.110.143 (talk) 00:04, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Wikisource has no Hanumanchalisa

message: Please discuss here before making them. 
# The Chalisa has several variant readings for some verses (chhājai or sājai, suvana or svayam). Having the popular reading (e.g. one rendered by Gita Press here) in the main text and noting the variant readings later is fine.
# Please do not make spelling errors. In Awadhi बिद्यावान and सहस्र are correct, बिद्ध्यावान and सहस्त्र are wrong. 
# As this is Awadhi text which is sung, please do not remove the terminal schwa. This is the usual practice followed e.g. by Gita Press.

message: Rao and Mehta meanings were given originally but they are not notable scholars. I would suggest keeping the meanings given by popular versions like Gita Press and notable Tulsidas scholars like Rambhadracharya only. InternetSanatani (talk) 00:47, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: :A yug (juga) is 12000 years, sahasra means 1000, and yojan (jojana) is 8 miles. This gives the distance between the Earth and the sun as 12000x1000x8 = 96,000,000 miles. (More accurately, this distance is actually 92,955,807.273 miles.)
This seems very confused. Its not clear why a period in years is multiplied by a number and a length.  It's not clear why a jojana of 8 miles has been chosen (there is little agreement on the length of a jojana in ancient india.  This does not seem to be a correct interpretation of the text, but rather numerology.
I've removed this, pending clarification Zeimusu | Talk page 14:32, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, what else can be the meaning? The text exists, and literally means "The sun at (a) yuga, 1000 yojanas. You dashed at it thinking that it is a sweet fruit.". This could be an interpretation.  BrightSunMan (talk) 21:48, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
