Making a new Font is a time-consuming yet rewarding task. Making a Devanagari Font with Indic Shaping features in Open Type Design is especially challenging. This book hopes to address this issue by going into the details of the process involved, by discussing the relevant Unicode Blocks and Shaping features threadbare.Indic Shaping FeaturesThere are two principal features in Open Type design, namely Glyph Positioning (GPOS) and Glyph Substitution (GSUB). Each feature has the shaping code layouts as below, which we can use during Font Design.AboveBaseMarkPositioning (abvm)MarkToBase-attaching anchor of mark glyph with base glyphAboveBaseSubstitutions (abvs)Ligature-replacing overlapping glyphs with new drawn smaller glyphs that do not overlap.Akhands (akhn)Ligature-replacing ¿ +¿ + ¿ combination glyphs with new drawn ligature ¿¿¿ glyphBelowBaseForms (blwf)Ligature-replacing ¿¿¿ ¿ ¿ ¿¿¿¿BelowBaseMarkPositioning (blwm)MarkToBase-attaching anchor of mark glyph with base glyphMarkToMark-attaching anchor of mark glyph with mark glyphBelowBaseSubstitutions (blws)Ligature-replacing overlapping glyphs with new drawn smaller glyphs that do not overlap.ConjunctForms (cjct)Ligature-replacing consonant glyph combinations as seen in Sanskrit Literature.HalantForms (haln)Ligature-replacing glyphs where halant intersects, with new drawn glyph where halant is well positioned.HalfForms (half)Ligature-replacing consonant+halant glyphs with new drawn half-consonant glyph.NuktaForms (nukt)Ligature-replacing the combination of consonant+nukta glyphs with a new ligature.PostBaseSubstitutions (psts)Ligature-replacing the combination of consonant+halant glyphs with a new ligature.PreBaseSubstitutions (pres)Ligature-replacing the combination of consonant+halant+consonant glyphs with a new ligature.RakarForms (rkrf)Ligature-replacing consonant+halant+repha combination glyphs with new drawn Ligature conjunct having back slash for rephaRephForms (rphf)Ligature-for replacing repha+halant glyphs with top curve glyphVattuVariants (vatu)Ligature-replacing consonant+halant+repha combination glyphs with new drawn Ligature conjunct having caret below for repha----------------Lists all glyphs and characters needed for a Devanagari font to be used for Sanskrit Typesetting.Contains Full Color Plates for legibility and clarity.A proposed character class scheme for correct implementation of Sanskrit Typesetting is outlined here, so thatUnicode Character Block team membersScript Language codersFont designersOpen Type Design Shaping Engine developerscan help users in writing "correct and beautiful Sanskrit" texts and books and documents as per the extant Ancient Sanskrit Literature in the modern world.

Marma is based on the model of a lighted being or the consciousness that fills all human beings and flows and radiates through our thoughts and emotions, nerves and tissues.Due to 5 factors, viz. 1.lifestyle, 2.upbringing, 3.perceived notions, 4.relationships, and 5. personal set of values, these light beams get scattered away from their normal flow. Some beams lose their amplitude, others lose their direction. Yet others lose their intensity or focus. This is what results in illness, pain, grief, guilt, fear and weakness.Marma Chikitsa or Therapy is a revolutionary technique to normalize and balance the light body. Though mentioned in the ancient texts, in the modern context it is only recently being rediscovered and reapplied. When it came to healing and restoring fitness, the ancients rarely looked at anatomy as a mass of muscle, tissue, bone or organ. Rather, they perceived it as a body of glowing consciousness, and used the time honored techniques of Meditation, Massage, Showering, Walking, soft Touch, Pranayama and Yoga.¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿ Thigh and lower anatomy marma points list.¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿1-¿¿¿¿¿¿2-¿¿¿¿¿3-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿4-¿¿¿¿¿5-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿6-¿¿¿¿7-¿¿¿8-¿¿¿¿¿9-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿10 ¿¿¿¿¿11 ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ 11 vi¿apa (topmost point in this list)¿ 10 lohit¿k¿a¿ 9 ¿rv¿ (also spelt urv¿)¿ 8 ¿¿i¿ 7 j¿nu¿ 6 indrabasti¿ 5 gulpha¿ 4 k¿rcäira¿ 3 k¿rca¿ 2 talah¿daya¿ 1 k¿ipra (bottommost point in this list)These points are listed in sequence of vertical location top to bottom of anatomy.¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ | These are mirrored points in each leg, so a count of 22 points.Note: Marma points Vi¿apa, J¿nu and Gulpha in leg correspond to Kak¿adhara, K¿rpara and Mäibandha in arm resp.-------------------This book presents the Marma section from the Sushruta Samhita, and lists simple ways to get back to peak health and total fitness. -------------------Contains Full Color Plates.Contains Charts for all 107 Marma Points.

The Sri Yantra Bhavana Upanishad is attributed to the Atharvaveda. It is a later Upanishad that illuminates the Bhavana or Deeper Emotions connected to the Sri Yantra, the body of the Mother Divine, and also the body of Divine Yogic Union of Purusha and Prakriti. It expounds the innermost intense feelings of the Soul, its basic desire, and ways and means to connect and unite with the ultimate consciousness.What is a Sri Yantra? A healing mandala diagram made by 4 Upward Apex Triangles and 5 Downward Apex Triangles, properly intertwined to represent¿ the cosmic forces in creation, and¿ the principles of duality, harmony, and divinity.The 9 Basic Triangles create a total of 43 Triangles due to the overlapping, which are grouped (shaded) as14 + 10 + 10 + 8 + 1 = 43.Apart from these Triangles,¿ there is a central Dot (Bindu)¿ there are three Circles encircling the Triangles¿ there are four Gates encircling the entire Mandala, composed of three lines.Sanskrit Seed Sounds (bija mantra) like ¿ Om, are potent healing and nourishing energies. Sound is an energy. Pleasing sounds (meditative music, blessings) have excellent effects on one's behavior, attitude, and long-term all round success in life.An aesthetically made Mandala can become vastly superior when infused with Seed Sounds.----------Contains Full Color Plates

A Sri Yantra designed with accuracy and precision is precious, beautiful and highly benevolent. To begin drawing, use a 2D drafting engineering software e.g. AutoCAD, BricsCAD, nanoCAD, LibreCAD etc.Set the Dimensions precision to four decimal places, e.g., 0.0000With each Line, Angle, or Circle drawn, take the Dimension and see if it matches exactly.Even a slight error shall make the Sri Yantra lose its Beauty and Preciousness.1 Square ABCD, side 200.2 Bisect Square at J,make right angle Triangle JCD with hypotenuse JC = 223.6068, Angle CJD = 63.4349°3 Draw Black Circle with center at J, radius = hypotenuse JC = 223.60684 Extend Square ABCD to a Rectangle ABEF, where longer side AF = BE = 323.60685 Draw Green Circle with center at A, radius = 323.60686 Extend side of Square DC to touch Green Circle at upper point g.

There is an ancient text in the Vedic tradition that goes by the name of Markandeya Purana. It gives various rituals and customs for family and society to observe and follow, to lead a happy and successful life. These customs are based on observing the life of real people, how they faced difficulties and overcame challenges and vagaries. Written by sage Markandeya (of Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra fame) it consists of 137 chapters.Its thirteen chapters from 81 to 93 consisting of 700 verses are called Devi Mahatmya, also as Chandi Path, which is today famous as the Durga Saptashati.Within the Durga Saptashati, there are some verses known as the Devi Stuti or the Tantrokta Devi Sukta.
