Knowledge beyond words ; Sanskrit!

on
Sanskrit is the first language known to Mankind.
Sanskrit is also called as a Spiritual Language because "Sanskrit is the language of TRUE ESSENCE"
Sanskrit is a Phonetic based coded scripts that is very scientific by nature.

Every aspect of Sanskrit has some sort of Spiritual Significance.





This post is based on my Level 1 Knowledge in Sanskrit. 
Anyone who wants to read the ORIGINAL VEDIC TEXTS should have at-least level 1 knowledge.

Sanskrit is an encyclopedia of Knowledge and hence we simply cannot depend on Translations - Translations can provide wrong knowledge.
SANSKRIT IS AN ABSOLUTE PERFECTION IN A NATURAL FORM.

Do you all know that almost all the words in Sanskrit has multiple meanings?.
I am going to share my experience with you.
Last week i was trying to understand and decode the meaning of the Sanskrit Keerthanam "Manasa Sancharare" written by Sadasiva Brahmendra.
The words in this Keerthanam were very contradictory and it was difficult for me to come up with choreography.
There is a line called - "Kapola Vijita Mukure" in the Keerthanam.
Link to my choreography:

KAPOLA is a Sanskrit word and some saints have used the word KAPOLA to explain Cheeks while a few others have used the word  KAPOLA for MIRROR and i was confused.

Similarly some saints have used the word CHIKURE to explain HAIR and some have used the same word to represent PEACOCK FEATHERS.

I traced KAPOLA to its ROOT FORM.

KAPOLA means SMOOTH SURFACE and hence one can use the word KAPOLA for cheeks or mirror or to explain anything that has smooth surface.

This is not the only example.
Most of the words in Sanskrit can be used with multiple meanings.

What do you perceive from the below picture?
In English this is called as - ICE CUBES.
The AMERICANS are going to perceive this as ICE - CUBES.





However there is no such word in Sanskrit for ICE CUBE. 
I REPEAT - THERE IS NO WORD IN SANSKRIT FOR ICE-CUBE.
You have to use the same word WATER to explain ICE-CUBE , SNOW , WATER VAPOUR.

Sanskrit is based on Vedanta Philosophy which believes that  - "THERE IS ONLY ONE THING THAT IS ABSOLUTE AND REAL AND EVERY OTHER FINITE MANIFESTATIONS ARE ILLUSORY(MAYA)".
"The shape acquired by water in the form of ICE CUBE is MAYA and the ABSOLUTE REALITY  IS WATER".

SEEK THE MEANING! 

The advantage of analyzing a word from the technical perspective and from the point of view of one etymology ; can help one gain access to the REALITIES that were till then hidden - that means one gains knowledge of the unknown through the known. 

Sanskrit will teach you  - HOW TO PERCEIVE REALITY ACCURATELY.
PERCEPTION is the highest form of INTELLIGENCE as per the VEDAS.
The above example will teach you that  all forms of Water - Snow, Water Vapour, Ice-cubes are only Manifestations / Maya of the ABSOLUTE REALITY called WATER.

Sanskrit is the language of ESSENCE. 

After learning a little bit of Sanskrit in school i proceeded to gain Level 1 Knowledge in Sanskrit in 2019. This is because - I had to read Natya Veda for my Bharatanataym Theory exams, the original version of which is in Sanskrit ;  I knew that translated versions will give me wrong knowledge.





Another interesting fact about Sanskrit is that  Sanskrit does not have even ONE ABUSIVE WORD.
Answers to all questions are found in Sanskrit.

In addition Sanskrit has the power to say a sentence with MINIMUM WORDS.
"Kapola Vijita Mukure" is one of the line of the Keerthanam means - 
"The cheeks of the Brahman is brighter than the Mirror" ; 
There is knowledge beyond words - 
"The Mirror will only show you who you are from outside but a Brahman can tell you who you are inside out".
