Frequently asked questions about learning Sanskrit.


Q) Is Sanskrit hard?

No! Its not if you put in the effort and learn in a systematic manner.

Yes! If you don't put in the required effort.


Q)Would I be able to master Sanskrit after studying or learning from a teacher?

Master is a word that even Scholars(Vidwans) do not use because in this world only God is the Master of everything.

We humans are always learning and evolving.
There are many grey areas even in science and everything is subject to change as evidence and discovery disproves a previous held notion.

So what happens after attending classes ?
Do we learn anything?

Yes! No doubt about that!  We acquire information and data on Sanskrit for effective processing!


Q)Would I forget Sanskrit if I do not keep in touch with it after having learnt it?

Ok....lets get real...absence does NOT make the heart grow fonder...its actually Out of Sight ..Out of Mind!

Yes...we can forget some details but the subconscious mind records everything like a memory card.
All we need to do is keep activating our memory by constant reading and writing of Sanskrit.

The mind though has yet to be located on MRI brain... still functions very much like skeletal muscle.
If we do not use a muscle it undergoes atrophy and shrinks.
Likewise if we do not activate our mind we forget what we had learned.


Q)Will I be able to read and write Sanskrit after attending classes?

YES! You are taught reading and writing in the 1st lesson itself ..by 5th class you would be reading sentences.
The classes focus on learning Sanskrit as it is and not learning Sanskrit by thinking in English and expressing it in Sanskrit!
You would be taught to THINK in Sanskrit and EXPRESS yourself in Sanskrit.


Q)Would I be able to understand all Sanskrit words after attending classes?

Ok..Vocabulary is part and parcel of learning and with time vocabulary increases with exposure to reading material and to be honest none of us know every word in any dictionary be it even a world class Spelling Bee champion!

Cultivate the habit to read and surely we need to buy books and subscribe to sites that sell books.
Take a trip to India to buy books too to have a personal feel to a book.
Holding a book in hand..feeling the paper is much better than reading a e-book.
Virtual can never replace the original feel of paper in our hands!(May be I am still very old fashioned).

Q) Would religion/mantras/shlokas/vedanta/geeta be taught in class?

For now NO.
The classes are focused on language at present.
I would be like your driving instructor to help you get your drivers licence and then which car you drive or how fast your drive after that or which road you take after that is entirely yours.
Classes would ONLY focus on Sanskrit Language and Grammar and is open to anyone who is interested in Linguistics.
