Prominent personalities in this lineage include Sri Krishna, Buddha, and Mahaveer. &#8216;Samskrutham&#8217; is the traditional name of Sanskrit. &#8216;Vak-Yoga&#8217; is the Vedic name for Samskrutham.This shift is recognised and endorsed by Monier Williams, the compiler of the colonial Sanskrit-English Dictionary, in a preface footnote. For nearly two centuries, this lexicon has been the anchor in the global academic world, projecting &#8216;Samskrutham&#8217; as &#8216;Sanskrit,&#8217; using a colonial lens, which has distorted and diluted its native traditional narrative.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Samskrutham is the language of discourse used over millennia for science, spirituality, and standardizing social-religious governance and administration in Bharath. The linguistics of Samskrutham have been studied across a plurality of applications to document records and research in areas of health, wellness, public health, science and math education, technology, and humanities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The interest of Bharateeya Scientists and Saints in Samskrutham can be gauged by the fact: one language, eight grammars, and seven technical names for each perspective of study! &#8216;Brahmi&#8217; is one way of modeling the Samskruth language for study. So are the names &#8216;Sarasvati&#8217; and &#8216;Bharati.&#8217; One model&#8217;s technicality should not be confused or mixed up with another model of language analytics. The Panini tradition stands tall in presenting this &#8216;vak-yoga&#8217; Vedic tradition of how to code Samskrutham for specific applications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8216;Ka-naada&#8217; is a hardware layout serving as one keyboard for all languages of India. All Indian languages carry the basic organization of &#8216;language character sets&#8217; (akshara maalaa) coming from Panini&#8217;s Brahmi model in Shiva-Sutras. The clustered grouping of &#8216;varna-aksharas&#8217; in Shiva-sutra is called the &#8216;Svara-Vyanjana&#8217; layout. This science of human language sounds in language is called &#8216;shikshaa-shaastra,&#8217; the voice base and basics of spoken\/oral languages, be it for conversation, classical poetry, science, or techno-linguistic programming. &#8216;Ka-naada&#8217; has its hardware keyboard-Indian language character set interface by Panini Brahmi standards in its socio-technical frame as &#8216;aksharamaalaa.&#8217; This makes &#8216;ka-naada&#8217; layout directly useful to serve all languages of India using a &#8216;unifying varnamaalaa-akshara-abhyasa&#8217; foundation. This is a unifying layout by sound, which (a) bridges the forced colonial artificial divide of Indian languages as Aryan-Dravidian using scripting models and (b) serves as a strong platform for cross-lingual regional languages data and program processing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8216;Ka-naada&#8217; joins the world language community in celebrating the recognition of the ancient sacred language of India as &#8216;Sanskrit.&#8217; We hope that in the future, the traditional term &#8216;Samskrutham&#8217; &#8211; &#8216;Bharati-Sarasvati&#8217; &#8211; will be made more prominent and acceptable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-03fa1318-9346-4250-bd3e-93633a4d8d26\">To enroll for Interesting &amp; Knowledgeable Courses visit the link below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-b28df6fc-f90e-402e-8eba-78e994d83ce9\"><strong>www.ka-naadagurukula.teachable.com<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To enroll for Interesting &amp; Knowledgeable Courses visit the link below: www.ka-naadagurukula.teachable.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized-en"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=293"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":446,"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293\/revisions\/446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=293"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=293"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ka-naada.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
