Dr Sadagopan is absolutely right on this issue. Dowry was a practice so pernicious among the British. Mumbai(Bombay) was actually granted as dowry by the Royal house of Portugal to the Royal house of England. Many Indians started copying the British Saheb. It is unfortunate that we even continue to do so - 55 years after independence. Sometimes I even wonder why we speak in English or even regard english as our mother tongue. Personally, i have great respect for Shakespeare, Scot Robert Burns and GB Shaw, but we should make a concrete effort to start speaking in Sanskrit. English should remain only an interface to the outside world and only as a language of international communication. The great tamil grammarian - Senavaraiyar said that Sanskrit belongs not only to Tamizh Nadu but to the entire country. The great Sangam Tamizh texts speak about how gloriously the aksharam-s of samskrutam arose from the damaru of Maheshwarar. Kambar himself says that Valmiki was one of the most honored sages of the first Tamil Sangam. The great Sanskrit poeticist - Dandin was a court poet at the Pallava kingdom of Kanchipuram. Today, Dandin's dasakumaracharitam is still taught in Ahobila Matham pAtashAlas. So come on my friends, let us start conversing in Sanskrit. Here is a website: http://www.samskrita-bharati.org and let us also learn Tamizh at http://www.tamilvu.org Friends, Sanskrit is the best choice to be made as the National language of India. The great country, Israel revived Hebrew after nearly 2500 years. Japan adopted western technology into it's own language. Sanskrit is the only language that unites every Indian from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, Dwaraka in Gujarat to Kamakhya in Assam. SamskrutE sambAshanam kuru !!! jEvanasya parIvarthanam kuru !!! (converse in Sanskrit, revolutionise your life !!! ) Regards,. Malolan Cadambi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
