EP.5: 'Sanskrit: Encapsulating Civilizational CODEs in Wordscapes' with Anuradha Choudry

EP.5 Description

The language of a land most effectively captures and communicates the worldview of its people. In ancient Bharat, Sanskrit was that medium that effectively encapsulated the breadth and depth of its civilisational aspirations in its basic sound structures, word-formations and syntactic expressions. Words like Dharma, embodying the CODE or the 'Collective Oath for Development and Excellence', represent the gold standards that generations strived to achieve concretely in every aspect of their individual and collective lives, leading to the enjoyment of a natural state of abhyudaya or prosperity, freedom in the material world, as well as nishreyasa or spiritual freedom at a personal level. This conversation is an attempt to decode the multi-layered thought-frames that are embedded in the wordscapes of this ancient and potent tongue.

Guest: Dr. Anuraddha Choudry
Host: Sreejit Datta
