Hello Sir,

greetings. We are also in the same dilemma as we want our son to learn vedas. He is 9 years old now and had his Upanayanam this year. He is performing Sandhi and Samitadhanam daily . We are living in Coimbatore in a place far-off from the so-called Brahmin locality. We also share your view that Vedas should be learnt orally but to get a Vadhyar to come to our place to teach Vedas is really tough. All other activities like painting, vedic maths, skating, Karate etc. have a number of centres everywhere in the city but not so for the vedas. Even holiday courses for a month or two is not available. The transportation from one part of the city to another takes a longtime and after attending the classes for 4 days for 1hr each spread over a month or so, he has mastered "Purusha Suktam". It is only our wishful thinking that more learned scholars of the elder generation pass on their vedic knowledge to the upcoming brahmin students who cannot take the Patashala course but at the sametime want to remain connected to their roots.

Thanks
Anamika.
