Dear Friends,
For nearly 35-40 years the following
publications have been part of a chain of schools, St. James Independent
Schools in UK as well as Europe, North & Latin America, South
Africa, Australia, New Zealand so on and so forth. Unfortunately, Sanskrit
has lost roots in its birth-place & is no longer part of school
curriculum in India where it originated. Rather, Sanskrit is treated like
a foreign language being grouped with other foreign languages like German,
French etc. Therefore, it is our moral & social
responsibility to work towards the cause of "SANSKRIT
RENAISSANCE".
Among enclosed articles one of
it is from “Speaking Tree” which will give you a
comprehensive idea behind publishing the set. Your kind help in
propagating, promoting & highlighting this project thru
countrywide media support will go a long way in the larger
interest of our society.
1) SANSKRIT IS FUN (3 Parts) Level 1
2) STORY OF KRISHNA (2
Parts) Level 2
3) STORIES OF RAMA (2 Parts) Level 3
Since Sanskrit is the heart
and soul of India, it is not only the mother of all
Indian languages, but the source of all Indo-European languages.
Moreover, Sanskrit does not belong to any particular race, sect or
religion. Such was the strong thematic expression of our Hon’ble
Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh during his deliberation at the
15th World Sanskrit Conference held at Vigyan Bhavan, New
Delhi in January 2012. I strongly feel that without Sanskrit,
being the core origin of all languages, it is virtually
impossible to sustain the cultural and spiritual values of our homeland for
which India is held in high esteem.
In his Foreword, Prof
(Dr) Satya Vrat Shastri writes, "The books could also be useful
for those involved in performing arts like dance & music, or for students
of Yoga & Ayurveda, subjects which have many Sanskrit references."
Warmest personal regards
