Samskrita Residential Camp at Arya Samaj Rajkot .

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
"The very notion of India is hardly conceivable without Sanskrit, which has symbolised and cemented the unity of Indian culture throughout several millenia". - Professor V. V. Ivanov - Russian linguist Sanskrit flows through our blood. It is only Sanskrit that can establish the unity of the country - Dr. C. V. Raman


Here are some of the reasons that philosophers, politicians, academicians and historians state why we as a humanity should pursue the study of Samskritam.




Samskritam literature is national in one sense, but its purpose has been universal. That was why it commanded the attention of people who were not followers of a particular culture - Dr. S.Radhakrishnan





Sanskrit is the language of Indian culture and inspiration, the language in which all her past greatness, her rich thought, and her spiritual aspirations are enshrined. Sanskrit has not only been the treasure-house of our past knowledge and achievements in the realm of thought and art, but it has also been the principal vehicle of our nation's aspirations and cultural traditions, besides being the source and inspiration of India's modern languages. - Dr. Rajendra Prasad
