All,
I have received so far 100+ requests to share the english version of Dheivathin Kural in English (digitally). I continue to get emails on a daily basis. I thought I could end this everlasting confusion.
The english version is fully copy protected and there is no pdf available. I do not think it will ever become free. If anyone attempts to create pdf versions, they will definitely face lawsuits from the publishers – please do not attempt to do that. As you all are aware, the hard copy version is available in all bookstores. So, please do not send me emails asking me for PDF version of English!
On the Tamil version, as you may remember, through the reader network of this blog, there was a spell-check process happened and the most corrected version (upto volume 4) is available at http://dheivathinkural.wordpress.com. Hopefully in another 1 month, rest of the volumes would be loaded. I am working with Sri Matam to update their site (http://www.kamakoti.org/kamakoti/newTamil/newtamil.html) with this updated content. So far, volume 1 & 2 has been synchronized…Soon all versions will be updated too…
Also I want to clarify that I do not have the pdf version of updated Tamil content. I do not have plans to create one as well. If anyone is interested in doing this, I suggest all to wait till all contents are loaded on both these sites.
I hope this clarifies.
Thanks
Mahesh
