Listen to Sadhu

listentosadhu/corpus

Listen to Sadhu exposes a searchable corpus of Vedic scripture and recorded lectures. Look up verses by reference (e.g. "BG 2.13", "SB 5.5.3", "CC Madhya 8.128") with original Devanagari/Bengali, IAST transliteration and translations; read commentaries, prose chapters and letters; and search transcribed talks with semantic + lexical retrieval. Inline audio/video players let you hear a lecture passage or watch a clip. Read-only, no auth, no writes.
