Any guess what is written in the above image?
Well its the word बालकः(bAlakAH) meaning  a boy in Sanskrit.

The script used in the image is called Grantham Lipi and it was also used to write Sanskrit in the past and is older than the current Devanagari script and many Agama Shastra texts were written in Grantham script.
