[edit]About the idea creator
[edit]am yogi, writer, translator of ancient sanskrit texts, and if i may say so by blessings of my guru attained excellence in sanskrit and able to give precise english equivalents. so often i see articles which are not just informed but conflicting with other well-established articles which are already on wikipedia. we need people who can keep overall track of their particular fields of knowledge. i assure and can also prove that i am excellent in my particular field which is sanskrit, yoga , indian philosophy called darshana, jyotisha/astrology... which i learnt from my guru, which they say is one of the best ways to learn such subtle subjects
