1996 I visited Askharam, the headquarters of Samskrita Bharati and
was interviewed for their magazine Sambhashana Sandesha. Samskrita
Bharati is the main Sanskrit organization in India. It has done
crucial work teaching conversational Sanskrit to millions of people
and reviving Sanskrit as a living language throughout the country.
Krishna Shastri, head of the Samskrita Bharati movement later visited with me in the United States. He was a young man and a dynamic speaker and charismatic personality. He could get anyone to start speaking Sanskrit, even those who knew nothing of the script or the grammar. The living power of Sanskrit comes through him. This new Sanskrit movement is essential for the revival of Hinduism. Hinduism has its own language, which is perhaps the greatest of all human languages and the very language of creation. Sanskrit provides a firm foundation on which all of Vedic and yogic science, on which all of human knowledge, can be built and integrated according to a higher purpose. |
