    Hi, beckstacy99!

    Greetings and WELCOME to the site! I just moved and re-titled your question that you had posted in Introductions to this topic area so that it would get the most exposure to those who are best able to answer it. Introductions is for people to introduce themselves and we try to not ask questions there.

    We would appreciate it if you would return to Introductions sometime to tell us a little about yourself though, if you would be willing to do that.

    Thanks!

    pradhaana = प्रधान

    Even better is the word moola = मूल which means root or basic.

    Good drkpp. But don't you think that moolbhoot is even better?

    moola = basic
    bhoota = become

    so the compound word moolabhoota means
    the one who has become the basic or the root.
