<BR>Dear Friends,
<BR>
<BR>The Nandi Nagari is a variety of Nagari script.
<BR>About 1500 years ago, Nagari script was veolving from
<BR>Brahmi script. In different parts of India, there were varients
<BR>developing . Some of them proceeded and developed into 
<BR>some of the modern scripts of North India like Bengali, Gurmukhi,
<BR>DevaNagari, etc. Others stopped short and remaind in their
<BR>old forms.
<BR>In South India, the people used a form of Nagari
<BR>to write Sanskrit.

<BR>>Is it possible to put out a xerox or photostat copy of at least
<BR>>one page (leave) of the manuscript in the net ? I can ask the

<BR>Dear Dr. Jayabarathi:

<BR>your posting, suggesting that the
