method: translating yoga material to Danish
Since I want to pick material from several books in different languages I have come up with this workflow:
- Scan text material from books. any scanner will do and I have an old HP Photosmart.
- Use a free OCR, Optical Character Recognition software to get this scanning into a textfile. I use an online solution and I did a quick test today and it came out all right.
- Once the text is in digital format I can use google translate or the FoxLingo plugin ( Mozilla Firefox browser) to get the text into Danish.
- the last step is optional and that is to use a text-to-speech service to get the text into audio.
In the next few days I will use this service to get the basic Sivananda class into Danish.
At an early age I got interested in Buddhism and the prince who left his kingdom in the search for truth. How can I apply this story to my own life ? to be able to sit I took up the study of yoga. Is there a contradiction between yoga and science ? Sure we can get a theoretical understanding through books, but without the experience we are stuck. Why is it so hard to practice non-violence when the mosquito is landing on my neck ?
