Sanskrit is the divine language… Sanskrit is the language of God… Sanskrit and prestige go together in India… The very sound of Sanskrit words gives a prestige and a power and a strength to the race, says Swami Vivekananda.
Many of us want to learn Sanskrit in order to study scriptures in the original and chant Sanskrit hymns and know their meanings also. In order to accomplish that, we have introduced a one-year Sanskrit Course, called Vivekananda Sanskrit Course, as a part of Swami Vivekananda’s 150th Birthday Celebrations. Teachers from Samskrita Bharati will handle the classes.
