Introductory Sanskrit Lessons

13---bhAShita-saMskRutam/Introductory-Sanskrit-lessons

Namaskar and Welcome to All!

This chapter on our website is dedicated for introducing the entire world to the beautiful language of Sanskrit. Since 2019, over five thousand people around the world have registered, and classes are going on with a team of 50 teachers. Over the past five years we have conducted eleven large batches of introductory Sanskrit classes, and the twelfth is about to begin with 850 students registered and eleven teachers. Our approach is that classes should be readily available to all without consideration of country of origin or financial status. To that end all our classes are free of charge, all our teachers conduct classes with the inspiration of seva bhava, and our curriculum is also free. We have now created a new Spoken Sanskrit Curriculum online to increase ready access even further. This way no one will need to purchase any books, as all of our curriculum is available for viewing and study right here on our website. If students wish to download the lessons into their computer or phone, they are welcome to do so. And indeed, in this age of global warming and threat to our entire earth due to deforestation and pollution, keeping the curriculum electronic with no need for paper or printing of books is the need of the day. So onward! Please join us and engage in the study of Sanskrit with us today. To contact us and join our classes, please contact Aurobind Mahodaya at [padiyath.a@gmail.com].


Our Spoken Sanskrit curriculum has been created by the collective efforts of a team of Sanskrit teachers who have worked hard together to create this beautiful study program.
