Sanskrit, For the Love of Language

Sanskrit
10/21/2019


I’ve stated, “Sanskrit is the Latin of the East”. Both languages are ancient considered “dead” rather than extinct as extinct languages no longer have any speakers. Dead languages are often adopted, not usually native to the speaker. Languages adopted by a community, spoken by practitioners for the sake of stability and unity survive.


Dead languages are super special in that the words spoken are understood to resonate with love. Speakers of dead languages are caring for the language to remain alive. Dead languages remain when the words notate love, understanding, caring, kindness and compassion. Dead languages have special unique qualities understood by the speakers and listeners of the language embodied by a sense of having, feeling, doing, loving, speaking/listening, knowing and being. 

Sanskrit carries forth intentions (sankalpa) with intimate communities or relationships among speakers ultimately thriving upon the efficacy of words with inspiration optimally grounding and centering success. Hebrew is a language that has been revived due to the formation of a Nation State and Cornish has moved from the extinct list to critically endangered when 3500 claimed native speakers were recognized by UNESCO¹. The hope expressed in reviving languages is as optimistic of the kindness and compassion found by people caring for the welfare of endangered species of animals; when the option is extinction, speaking a dead language is known by speakers and listeners as an atmosphere of love.
