Pride in Samskrit

  Sanskrit is the ancient sacred language of India. It is believed to be the oldest language of the world. There are still hundreds of millions of people who use Sanskrit in their daily lives, but despite these numbers, its cultural worth is unsurpassed.

The origin of Sanskrit can be accredited to the Vedic society. Vedic Sanskrit is believed to date back to the 2nd millennium BC, when knowledge was handed down through the generations verbally.

Mystic traditions of India ascribe a wholly sacred origin to the language, describing it as the language of the gods. Sanskrit, along with about half of the world's languages, is a member of the Indo-European language family. This family has many branches and sub-divisions. Linguists place Sanskrit among the Indic languages of the Indo-Iranian branch.
