Samskrita as a Mother Tongue !

" Samskrita with varying tones has been a mother tongue in Indian subcontinent for more centuries than the present languages and dialects have seen so far.She ought to stage a come back as a lingua franca par excellence that she is by virtue of all great qualities she is endowed with - tone,precision,richness,depth,knowledge content,unifying spirit,spiritual potential,universal outlook and so on.We have only to wish and invoke her with hearts' sincerity.

After this Census ...

" After this Census we may or may not have reason to believe that Samskrita is doing somewhat in a minimal or a little satisfactory way.Until the next census let the Samskrita teachers rejuvenate their spirits without the least touch of complacency that it's they who're responsible for what and how Samskrita is today.Rather than the old and ageing,I would like to rely on the future Samskrita teachers to be live to Samskrita,to live Samskrita and contribute to her eternal existence and not to just resort to her to eke out a livelihood or build a career big in name and vacuous and ineffective in content.
For this we have to develop the potentials that the teaching and examinations be in Samskrita and not in another language whether Indian or foreign,and I assure you the unique ethos and essence will be back ! "

Census & Samskrita Speakers

" This census will show on the vital language front as to how many native users of Samskrita India can boast of,a fact that speaks of her great culture and civilization of unparalleled antiquity.This will also prove and bring to record the effort put in by a sizable number of Samskrita teachers disseminating the language and it's varied subjects throughout the length and breadth of the country."
