| | A Tribute to Hinduism - Sanskrit |
| | 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. | | | Sanskrit is indeed a perfect language in the same sense as mathematics, but Sanskrit is also a perfect language in the sense that, like music, it has the power to uplift the heart. |

| | 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 Significance of Sanskrit in Hinduism and Mahayana Buddhism |
| | 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. | | | 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. |
