Here is the appeal made through e-mail by a devout Sanskrit speaking Indian. He appeals that we should register ‘Sanskrit’ as our 2nd language in the ongoing Census :
Namaste, Pranam, Vanakkam, Aadab & Good Evening,
Our Government of India is starting with census.
Please register "Sanskrit" as 2nd language in the form which they would like you to fill it up. There are tons of people across the globe including India who want to kill & demolish our "Sanskrit" language.
Reasons could be anything.
But please don’t allow them to do so.
Officers who are going to visit your home are going to ask this question to you as well as to your family members. Empower them today only. You can also think of writing it on a piece of paper and hang out that paper near main entrance door so that you and your family don’t forget.
In last census, only 14,135 fellow citizens wrote "Sanskrit" as their mother language.
You may be speaking Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Kokani, Marathi, Hindi, Gujarati, Maithali, Bengali, Assamese, Oriya, Punjabi, Dongari or Urdu language. And that’s ok with me and all.
But please do write "Sanskrit" as 2nd language.
Remember, on day to day basis there are tons of words which we all use as it is written in "Sanskrit".
Let me give some example
"Stree (Female)", "Tirth/Tirtham" , "Prasad/Prasadam" , "Muhurt/Muhurtam" , "Naivaidya/Naivaidyam", "Suvas (Smell)", "Netra/Netram (Eyes), "Jal (Water)", "Bhojan (Lunch/dinner) ", "kunku/Kumkum/ Tilak" & many more.
Over & above, we also give "Sanskrit" names to our kids like Narayan, Satyanarayan, Soundarya, Murugan, Ganesh, Ganapati, Ganesha, Krishna, Sri Krishna, Shrikrishna, Pinackpani, Laxmi, Saraswati, Venkatesh, Sri Hari, Shankar, Kartik/Karthik, Satyabhama, Subhadra, Ganga, Gangadevi, & so on.
The benefits of knowing this language have been highly spoken about by great world citizens like Sri Aurobindo, Einstein, Schaupenhauer, Swami Vivekananda .. the reasons given below are only some very obvious ones for those who belong to the Sanatana Dharma … on a universal scale .. it is said that if Sanskrit is taught to the youth of a nation, the violence in the country will automatically be reduced by one third and the Police force can be reduced by the same amount !! …not to mention that it is an ideal language for formatting the brain in order to make it precise and capable of quick computational skills and grasping complex ideas…
Reviving Sanskrit as a second language would have deep implication on the well-being of the individual and the nation .. it could heal many social wounds and bind the nation into a powerful whole due to its synthesing nature.
Some people also give "Sanskrit" names to their software products like "Shree-Lipi" . One of the oldest & largest sold Indian language font package from India. Modular InfoTech have been giving only "Sanskrit" names to their software products and they are selling in huge numbers. i was associated with them for more than 7 years.
Some people also give "Sanskrit" names to their businesses.
Our temple names are in "Sanskrit"
Our family God/Goddesses names are also in "Sanskrit", Laxmi, Ganesh, Vyadeshwar, Hari Hareshwar, Saraswati, etc.
Our Veda’s are in "Sanskrit". Our various "Shloka’s" and "Mantra’s" are also in "Sanskrit". Our "Bhagwat Gita" is also in "Sanskrit" and which is used every day across all the courts.
Now the question is? When we use & speak so many "Sanskrit" words in our day to day life? Why not declare "Sanskrit" as our 2nd language & give due respect to her?
i am sure you will not disagree on this simple observation that i have done using common sense. i am also sure you must have heard a famous quote in English and it goes like this "Sanskrit" is mother of all Indian languages.
Census is going to start from May 2010. It is well known fact that today we all Indian citizens speak & use many Indian languages (in home, in office, in society & in Nation). While doing so we use & we speak around 50% of "Sanskrit" words as it is. We all may not be noticing it. But that’s ok with me.
At the end of the day, let’s not run away from the truth.
Let’s give due respect to "Sanskrit"
Let’s declare "Sanskrit" as our 2nd language of communication. Let’s protect "Mother of all Indian Languages"
If we don’t do it? No one else is going to protect it.
I am going to do it. My family is going to do it. You are also a member of my family.
Now would you please do it in your home and ask all your relatives, friends, schoolmates, collegemates, subordinates, colleagues, suppliers & customers to do so?
Please!
Let’s spread this message all across India and all across globe where ever Indians are located. Spread this like a wild fire.
If we send this message to 100 contacts within our network and i am sure reaching out all across India will not be a difficult task. Am i right?
Please cooperate. Please do this service to the nation and pass on the request to as many as you can…
You will never regret it! 🙂
