Dearest Eli,

Perhaps I can answer a few of your questions, but Emacs, as always, answers
the
most. See far below.

Ispell-breaks on:

 ōm namō bhagavatē śrī aruṇācala ramaṇāya

> Breaks how?

Here is the error report I see:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Ispell misalignment: word ‘nam’ point
122; probabl...")
  error("Ispell misalignment: word `%s' point %d; probably ..." "nam" 122)
  ispell-process-line("^> ōm namō bhagavatē śrī aruṇācala ramaṇāya\n" nil)
  ispell-region(1 5627)
  ispell-buffer()

I am not certain. 'Indian' is a sick response. Perhaps Tamil? Perhaps
Sanskrit. My Guru, Kumar Saran (ramanahouston@outlook.com) can tell you
precisely. I have cc'd him on this message.

> What spell-checking program do you use as the back-end for ispell-buffer?

I am as dumb as I rock. I have no idea. I use a Chromebook, I am sure. I get
ispell with the single Debian Gnu Linux shell command:

   sudo apt install ispell

> On what Operating System do you see the problem, and in which version of
Emacs?

Whatever comes with a Chromebook, plus the Gnu Linux that Debian provides.
As
Google says, 50 millions teachers and students using Chromebooks can't be
wrong.

I hope that the info below will tell you more than you ever wanted to know.
I understand not a word of it.

With Greatest Thanks and Highest Regards,

Bob

My favorite quotation comes from Julian of Norwich. She was told: All manner
of thing shall be well. I hope and pray that she was well informed.

to take away the possibility of the vision of the divine essence by man is

is a thinking of thinking. -- Aristotle

Is an explanation for the irrational support for Trump addiction or
stupidity?

Any piece of computer software is nothing but an integer. It is clearly
unconstitutional, under the First Amendment, for the US government to ban
the
publication of an integer.

I used to wonder how the German people, and so many others, ignored the
Holocaust. Now I know. Thanks to Google, etc., now everybody knows, but too
few care. Step out of line, the man come and take you away.

American legislators often 'reserve' the right to revise and extend their
remarks. May all of us? Imagine you are sitting down to be sworn in to give
testimony and you say to the judge "I will say nothing more unless you agree
that I have the right to revise and extend my remarks. I am so feeble, my
speech is unreliable."

... and if we tell them that, unless they depart from their `cleverness,'
the
blessed place that is pure of all things evil will not receive them after
death, and here on earth they will always live the life like themselves --
evil men associating with evil -- when they hear this, they will be so
confident in their unscrupulous cleverness that they will think our words
the
talk of fools. -- Plato, Theaetetus
