Why Samskritam

If I was asked what is the greatest treasure which India possesses and what is her finest heritage, I would answer unhesitatingly - it is the Sanskrit language and literature and all that it contains. - Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru

Testimonials
Vishva-Samskrita-Dinam - World Samskrita-Day Every year, shrAvaNa-pUrNimA, or  the full-moon day in the month of shrAvaNa, is celebrated as vishva-samskrita-dinam. This year, it falls on Saturday, August 16th. Even as we celebrate this day as the World Samskrita Day, our fond hope and strong belief is that all 365 days of the year will be Samskrita-Days!

Adages exist that proclaim all of earth to be a family (vasudhaiva-kuTumbakam), the three worlds form one's habitat (svadEshO bhuvanatrayam), and so on.  These reflect universal thinking.  Along these lines, as we observe the day, we wish a fulfilling, prosperous and peaceful living for all mankind.

The Vedas are full of mantraas that express these sentiments.  The secret to achieving this objective is harmonious co-existence among man, beast and nature.

As you sow, so you reap - the more humane we are and the more giving we are, the more we will be surrounded by generosity of character among our fellow-humans.
