Sanskrit Bharati

Reviving the mother of all languages

>From Our Correspondent

 

Sanskrit Bharati is a voluntary movement to bring

about social change by practising Sanskrit language in

day-to-day life. It was formed in 1981 in Bangalore,

Karnataka. It is driven by a clear vision of bringing

Sanskrit back to life as the spoken language of the

Indians. It teaches a unique method to learn Sanskrit

within 10 days (two hours per day) through simple

spoken Sanskrit course (Sanskrit Sambhashana Sibiram).

Sanskrit Bharati nurtures the belief that the revival

of Sanskrit is the only means for bringing harmony

among people, for rejuvenating our cultural ideals and

for a progressive restructuring of the society. It has

the capacity to unite not only India but the whole

world.

 

During the course, the teachers and students speak no

other language than Sanskrit. The classes are made

interesting and interactive through songs, stories,

word games, oral drills, etc. People from different

languages, religions and communities learn and speak

Sanskrit with ease and confidence.

 

Besides a band of dedicated teachers, it also conducts

an all-India network of full-time volunteers. It also

organises a number of activities—Sanskrit Prashikshan

Vargaha (instructors' training), Poornakalika

Prashikshanam (full-time workers’ training),

Sandhyakala Vidyalaya (evening school for Sanskrit)

and Balakendram. The practical experience of Sanskrit

Bharati in teaching Sanskrit to villagers shows that

it is the best way of breaking traditional caste and

social barriers. People from the so-called ‘lower

castes’ also welcome opportunities to learn Sanskrit.

 

Bharati nurtures the belief that the revival of

Sanskrit Bharati officials have revealed that about

one million people have attended the ‘Speak Sanskrit’

camps so far; over a lakh have learnt Sanskrit through

the correspondence course and over fifty thousand

teachers have been trained. It has been publishing

Sambhashana Sandesha on contemporary topics for over

10 years now with readership drawn from many

countries.

Above item from Indian newspaper The Organizer (sure

sounds like a Communist rag, no?) doesn't mention a

web site for Sanskrit Bharati, but I believe it's

As Sanskrit is the Mother of all languages I really don't think ..........

 

> Sanskrit is the only means for bringing harmony

>among people

 

it is the only means there.

All languages belongs to the One and what is important is what comes from

the heart no matter what language is spoken.

Is a mother who has children more important than the children themselves or

are the children just a reflection of the mother and are just as important?

When we look at something as being more important then we lose sight of that

which may not be important but in the end is of more importance then what

one thinks is more important.

There are many many languages throughout the Universe but each and

everything is connected like a spider's web to one and everything. What

matters is what springs from the heart for THAT is what makes our soul grow.

I've been going for the Sanskrit classes conducted by Samskrita

Bharati for the last 5 days and have 4 more days to go in the Level

1 course.

 

It's been great - the instructor refused to speak English for the

first 4 days and so we picked up really fast !

 

Our group of 10 people can now converse easily regarding day to day

things in Sanskrit and can also tell simple stories.

 

They have classes all over N.America and if one comes to your

neighbourhood I would suggest that "Bhavaan sheegram gachathu! "

(you go quickly!) for it.

 

No knowledge of Devanagri script is required - it's a speaking-only

course.
