Guest guest Posted July 2, 2002 Report Share Posted July 2, 2002 Thanks to Professor Malaiya and Vishal Agarwal for their input concerning my query about Sikh Sanskrit texts. As part of forthcoming Sanskrit and Sanskriti Celebrations, I am putting together short representative passages suggestive of the power of Sanskrit to express and communicate key ideas of major world religions. In that connection I would request list members to identify a representative passage (recent or ancient) of a Jewish sacred text(s) in Sanskrit.

Note that the Bible has been translated into Sanskrit, and all the books of the old testament are Jewish. I don't know if there are any original Jewish texts in Sanskrit.

I wonder if a scholar of Judaism, who also happens to be a Sanskritist, would produce a few lines? S.Tilak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
