| | The Significance of Sanskrit in Hinduism and Mahayana Buddhism |
| | The Significance of Sanskrit in Hinduism and Mahayana Buddhism | | | The scriptures of Hinduism are written in Sanskrit, and epigraphic evidence clearly shows that they could not have been written before the second century A.D. The Christian thought is seen in the Hindu scriptures and this influence traces back to Christian Gospel preached by the Apostle Thomas first to the Pahlavas. | | | From the fifth century A.D. classical Sanskrit is seen to be the dominant language in the inscriptions which indicates that Sanskrit was replacing the dialects. |

| | Sanskrit Literature |
| | In Sanskrit literature, moreover, with the exception of the Mahabharata and the Puranas, the authors are generally definite persons, more or less well known, whereas the writings of the Vedic period go back either to families of poets or to religious schools. | | | The two most important Sanskrit collections, the Panchatantra and the Hitopadesa, are both based on Buddhist sources. | | | The Sanskrit name for "drama" is nataka, from the root nat, nrit, meaning "to dance," and it is certain that dances contributed to the development of the drama. |

| | A Tribute to Hinduism - Sanskrit |
| | Commemorative Sanskrit Souvenir 2003 of the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan | | | Considering Sanskrit's status as a spiritual language, a further implication of this discovery is that the age old dichotomy between religion and science is an entirely unjustified one. | | | Sanskrit is the artificial language par excellence, patiently refined sound by sound...embracing all the levels of being physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. |

| | Hindu tradition heralds it as "the language of the gods." Today Sanskrit continues to be the primary language of Hindu rituals; traditional scholars, or pandits, still hold debates and write treatises in this medium; and poetry in Sanskrit continues to be cultivated. | | | Students may satisfy the Language Requirement with two years of Sanskrit with a grade of "B" or higher, or by passing a proficiency examination in classical Sanskrit. | | | Sanskrit was carried outside the Indian subcontinent to adjacent regions which came under the influence of Indian culture, Tibet and China, and Southeast Asia from Thailand to Indonesia. |

| | Gary Tubb---Sanskrit Page Quotation |
| | A study of the classical language is the best way to approach learning all these forms of Sanskrit, and is also a useful foundation for the study of closely related languages, such as the Pali used in the earliest Buddhist scriptures, and of languages that have borrowed extensively from Sanskrit, such as classical Tibetan. | | | Panini himself did not call the language Sanskrit, but simply referred to it as the spoken language, as opposed to the language of the Vedic hymns, with which he also dealt. | | | As a member of the Indo-European family of languages Sanskrit is related to most of the languages of Europe and has many similarities in grammar and vocabulary with other older members of that family such as ancient Greek and Latin. |

| | The move to Sri Lanka may be seen as the beginning of Sanskrit's spread beyond the shores of India. | | | In the Cambodian pillars that carry rules for monasteries, Sanskrit in Khmer script on one side is paralleled by Sanskrit in a North Indian script on the other: perhaps there were North Indian devotees as well as Khmers resident here. | | | Sanskrit is polysyllabic, and highly inflected, with a complicated consonant system that is not averse to long clusters. |
