    The problem is with pronunciation and not English. We need to teach people how to pronounce the word 'Sanskrit'. The same problem we had with Bangalore hence the spelling was changed to Bengaluru thereby distorting it, now the first two parts can be pronounced like you do the state of Bengal-uru. Again we need to teach people how to pronounce. The problem could have been solved by telling people that Bang is not pronounced like the English word bang but like bang in Bangladesh.

God can’t be known by finite mind, even the word God is not enough to describe what you are asking. Languages like Sanskrit/ Tamil evolved by Rishis of old were a tool to help people quieten the mind and help make the search of what this existence is, that we think we live as body and mind.

The space around us is also allah or shiva or the formless divine. Shiva or allah or the formless is both transcendent and immanent
      Shiva/allah are omnipresent/omni potent. It is thee reason why hindus do meditation/yoga. Hindus also focus on stone deities in hindu temples and connect with formless shiva or allah within and around while sanskrit mantra vibrations (the divine language) being recited in the background which can help us transcend our 5 senses to access shiva/allah within and withiout.

    Rajiv the plagiarist!
    scroll.in/article/740814/plagiarism-row-how-rajiv-malhotra-became-the-ayn-rand-of-internet-hindutva
    Last week, historian Richard Fox Young charged Hindutva activist and author, Rajiv Malhotra with plagiarism. Young, an Associate Professor of the history of religions at the US-based Princeton Theological Seminary, listed out seven instances where Malhotra had plagiarised by quoting verbatim or picking ideas from other works without acknowledgement.
    Pointing to global academic standards, such as Princeton University’s guidelines on the use of references, Young accused Malhotra of a “lack of academic integrity” given his “repeated failure to acknowledge outside sources”. (A summary of Young’s charges can be found here).
    Interestingly, the New Jersey-based Rajiv Malhotra did not deny the charges per se. On Twitter, his defence rested on the fact that the standards Young was citing were too high.
    The Malhotra Syndrome
    The essay is almost a perfect encapsulation of Malhotra’s style. Containing very little insight, it deals mostly with personal attacks on the people he disagrees with. Some of these can be quite vicious such as when he brings up the fact that scholar Sarah Caldwell was sexually abused as a child in order to refute her work. He characterises American academics studying Hinduism as “psychosexual deviants or other misfits in their own culture” whose writing is driven by the “lucrative market” for “negative exotica and for positive cultural loot”.
    To use the words of Amartya Sen, both aim to “to miniaturise the broad idea of a large India ‒ proud of its heterodox past and its pluralist present ‒ and to replace it by the stamp of a small India, bundled around a drastically downsized version of Hinduism”.

  • @KannapiranArjunan-vm2rq

    According to Lamarkism if some one not use their brain and logical thinking for long time, then their brain become defunct like sanskrit proponents ! 1.. Sanskrit ia an anatolian rudimentary language brought to India by nomadic aryan then perfected.by heavily borrowing from Dravidian and Pali and PRAKRIT. All these borrowed words are plagiarism . sanskritists stole from all.languages but dishonestly claim other languages borrowed from sanskrit. Shame! 2. Do not have a script because it was a oral primitive language .."san script" means no script.. in tamil "Eluthakilavi" means no script. 3. Borrowed dravidian Nagars script called Nagari and changed name as deva-nagari..deva in persian ( original Aryan) language means demons or devils ..sanskrit devils script or devils language! 4. Also 2300 years ago, all Ashoka's inscriptions were in greek and pali no sanskrit indicating no sanskrit language then whereas tamil inscription carbon dated in Keeladi is 2600s old and in Adichanallur 2900yrs old. 5.only perfected and borrowed the script Nagari darvidian during GUPTAS period in 400AD. THEY CHANGED NAME AS DEVANAGARI.. 6. Most sanskrit texts are either translated or plagiarised from dravidian or Buddhist or Jains..7. SANSKRIT is gender and race or caste discriminatory..that is women cannot learn or read or write in sanskrit so also nonbrahmins. So all other indians used their mother tongue dravidian tamil or proto darvidian! there was no women writer or authors on sanskrit whereas there were more than 47 tamil women authors even before sanskrit borrowed developed its script..8. Sanskrit is the youngest Indo-European language ans many vedic and ouranic names were found in Anatolia and the invading aryans brought their Proto sanskrit from Anatolia. 9. Is Sanskrit compulsory in NASA for AI (Artificial Intelligence) research? Robert Frost, Instructor an Flight Controller at NASA Answered Dec 4, 2014: No, that's another internet hoax/urban legend traceable back to a single paper written in 1985 by an indian!

      Tamil is just another vernacular language (originated in kaliyuga after 4000 BC) like other indian regional and world languages. Tamil is one of the oldest vernacular language but tamil does NOT have vibratory frequencies which are in sync with resonances of matter. it is the reason why sanskrit is the divine language. Sanskrit sound vibration led to universal forms when soul (shiva) combined with shakthi (intelligent energy). This is vedic metaphysics. It has been validated by both scientific double slit quantum experiment and first person empiricism

      @@patrickmccartney7544 There is no proof of proto- indo european langauge other than claims..Only in mother civilization (india) sanskrit culture (sanskriti) is still being preserved in the form of hindu temples, sanskrit mantras/vedic metaphysics, festivals, sashtras (science, dance, music etc) , allegorical stories, ithihasas (ramayana, mahabharatha), Baghavad gita, pilgrimage centers. Sanskrit and sanskriti (culture) are synonymous in india and no other country has it.
      You can ask why then the root language is sanskrit for most European languages. it is because of migration of hindu/vedic people from India to other parts of the world before 4000 BC. So called pagans (celts/druids) were descendants of hindu/vedic people who migrated to Europe before 4000 BC. Pagans (who followed distorted hindusim) were converted to christianity by force in 300 AD. Jews and muslims were also descendants of namboodiiri brahmins of kerala who migrated to mecca and jerusalem long before the origins of abrahamic religions.
