  • Boldly Strong, the Battle for Sanskrit Is an Effective War Cry
    Enter Dhṛṣṭadyumna,* Pāṇḍava‑s awaited Boldly strong, The Battle for Sanskrit is an effective war cry Nityānanda Miśra† May 6, 2016 Abstract Despite its neglect by scholars in the Western academic world, Rajiv Malhotra’s recent bestselling1 and impactive2 book The Battle for Sanskrit (TBFS)3 succeeds in its objective and will resonate with its target readers: traditional Sanskrit scholars in India as well as English-speaking right-leaning Hindus across the world.4 Malhotra raises hard questions and presents grim facts in lucid vocabulary and a style which is a combination of academic, critical, trenchant, and motivational. He summarizes debatable and objectionable views and theories of Sheldon Pollock and what he calls ‘American Orientalism’;5 offers counter-views and alternate theories; and exhorts traditional Sanskrit scholars to critique Pollock’s works, views, and theories more substantially. In this article, I present a detailed review of the book and highlight what in my opinion are the strengths and weaknesses of the book. Although I have a favourable opinion of Malhotra’s book, I hope the contents of the article will prove useful, for the purpose of discussions and debates around the issues raised in the book, to even readers who are neutral or opposed to Malhotra’s views. In addition to an appendix on proofreading errors in TBFS, the article includes two more appendixes—one critiquing Pollock’s claim of an instance of semantic inversion and another analyzing contents of a recent statement that Pollock signed. Keywords: The Battle for Sanskrit, Rajiv Malhotra, Sheldon Pollock, Sanskrit, Indian studies. Note: Unless otherwise stated, all cited page numbers refer to Rajiv Malhotra (2016).

  • Spandana: Feeling the Pulsation of a Divine Language
    SRI AUROBINDO FOUNDATION FOR INDIAN CULTURE (SAFIC) SRI AUROBINDO SOCIETY, PUDUCHERRY, INDIA Spandana: Feeling the Pulsation of a Divine Language Report of the Workshop from 23rd to 30th of January, 2011 Sanskrit, simply defined, is the language of a growing consciousness. The core function of a language lies in the perfect communication of something; and, Sanskrit is just perfection in itself. The learning of Sanskrit is not only an ethereal joy of transformation but a profound feeling of the transcendental beginning of spiritual journey. It is no longer a hidden fact that Sanskrit is the mother of all languages. Moreover, it is something beyond a language can do, or a language can achieve. The superb structural beauty - added to the subtle harmony of the science and the spirit of metre and rhythm - gives the language another name for an elevating divine purity. Absolutely, Sanskrit, considered with all its facets and aspects, is nothing less than a creative vibration that provokes a divine pulsation. Spandana, a weeklong intensive Sanskrit learning course was organized by Sri Aurobindo Foundation for Indian Culture [SAFIC] from 23rd to 30th Jan, 2011. The major thrust of the programme was to introduce Sanskrit, in a perfect way, to the awakening of the natural curiosity of the minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards. The creation of a supreme awareness about the Sanskrit language as illumining reality and vitalizing memory was another mission and vision. All the sessions were planned carefully keeping in mind the relative interest and importance. The course was facilitated by Dr. Sampadananda Mishra who is the director of SAFIC.

    (A publication of SABDA, Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry 605 002) Number 19 December 2001 After granting me the joy which surpasses all expression, Thou hast sent me, O my beloved Lord, the struggle, the ordeal and on this too I have smiled as on one of Thy precious messengers. Before, I dreaded the conflict, for it hurt in me the love of harmony and peace. But now, O my God, I welcome it with gladness: it is one among the forms of Thy action, one of the best means for bringing back to light some elements of the work which might otherwise have been forgotten, and it carries with it a sense of amplitude, of complexity, of power. And even as I have seen Thee, resplendent, exciting the conflict, so also it is Thou whom I see unravelling the entanglement of events and jarring tenden- cies and winning in the end the victory over all that strives to veil Thy light and Thy power: for out of the struggle it is a more perfect realisa- tion of Thyself that must arise.

  • Jnanpith Award
    Jnanpith Award JNANPITH AWARD The Jnanpith Award is an Indian literary award presented annually by the Bharatiya Jnanpith to an author for their "outstanding contribution towards literature". Instituted in 1961, the award is bestowed only on Indian writers writing in Indian languages included in the Eighth Schedule to the Constitution of India and English, with no posthumous conferral. The Bharatiya Jnanpith, a research and cultural institute founded in 1944 by industrialist Sahu Shanti Prasad Jain, conceived an idea in May 1961 to start a scheme "commanding national prestige and of international standard" to "select the best book out of the publications in Indian languages". The first recipient of the award was the Malayalam writer G. Sankara Kurup who received the award in 1965 for his collection of poems, Odakkuzhal (The Bamboo Flute), published in 1950. In 1976, Bengali novelist Ashapoorna Devi became the first woman to win the award and was honoured for the 1965 novel Pratham Pratisruti (The First Promise), the first in a trilogy.
