Stotra to excel in studies

http://img858.imageshack.us/img858/7683/saraswativeena.jpg
Given below is the Vak Saraswati Hridaya Stavah which is Brahma Prokta. The
presiding deity of this Stotra is Vak Saraswati rupa Devi Sarada. This stotra
is chanted by the brahmacharis who are into Veda Vidya and Sastra Adhyayana.
Specially, Veda Vidyarthis who are learning Veda, Tarka, Mimamsa, Vedanta, this
stotram is VERY ESSENTIAL for them to excel in studies. Regular parayana of
this stotra bestows sharp memory, razor sharp intelligence, analytical skills,
victory in sastra charcha (polemics and debates). This is quite popular among
the closed circles of Sarada Upasakas of Kashmir and in Sringeri.

This stotra was given to me by Brahmasri Gollapudi Gopalakrishna Sastry, who was
a very close friend of my gurunatha. Shri Gopala Krishna Sastry was the 1st
guru of Shri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal of Sringeri. He taught swamigal Tarka,
Vedanta and Sutra Bhashya in Narasimha Vana. Later on Abhinava Tirtha Swamigal
taught the advanced sciences to Sannidhanam.

This stotra is the favorite of both my gurunatha and Gopalakrishna Sastry. Shri
Gopala Krishna Sastry used to reside in Sringeri and later on shifted his
residence to Hyderabad. Now he is no more. A few words on him. Shri Gopala
Krishna Sastry, learnt Tarka, Vyakarana, Mimamsa, Kavya, Sankara Advaita and
Kashmir Trika Siddhanta (entire Tantraloka) from Brahmasri Mahamahopadhyaya
Dravida Rajeshwara Sastry of Kasi. Initiated into Srividya Upasana by Brahmasri
Tadepalli Raghavananarayana Sastry of Chandavolu. Right from childhood, he was
brought up under the personal care of Chandrasekhara Bharati Swamigal.
Currently, the grandson of Dravida Rajeswara Sastry is residing in Chennai. His
name is Mani Dravida Sastrigal.

It is my fortune that Gopalakrishna Sastry used to reside next to our street in
Hyderabad. Now he is no more. This stotram is the kripa bhiksha of this great
personality.

Dear Sir, A request kindly publish the script in sanskrit or kindly record in your voice, yourself chanting, for the benefit of all and for the posterity in particular so that there is no apabrumsham of words.
