Gauracandra 1 Report post Posted July 22, 2001 Just wanted to give my thumbs up to the travel links on DragonSearch. Usually I'm stuck here in my cramped little apartment, but this morning I set out on an adventure and just got back from Bhutan. I'm planning another trip to Angkor Wat later in the day See you guys when I get back Gauracandra Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
talasiga 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2001 perhaps you should visit Braj again and learn Brij Bhaasha and by that mercy your approach to Sanskrit may be more fruitful. In Indian lingusitics Sanskrit is the Purusha and the the vernaculars derived from it are Prakrit. This is analogous to Shaktiman and Shakti or the Lord and His Devotees. The most prominent devotee of Sanskrit is Brij Bhaasha. It is commonly spoken, relatively untouched by arabic and persian vocabularic intrusions as is KhariBoli Hindi for example and it is the language between Radha and Krishna. So by taking to the Feet of this Devotee you may be guided in your approach to Sanskrit which is otherwise very remote and austere. Bon Voyaji !
