For all the Sanskrit enthusiasts out there, it’s going to be shubh prabhat, every day. An online digest called ‘Sanskrit Voice Digest’ can give you a taste of Sanskrit with articles written by qualified writers.
“Sanskrit Voice Digest” compiles Sanskrit related blogs and articles under one roof that is Sanskritvoice.com. Currently, it has partnered with nearly 10 blog-authors and a few organizations. It has a magazine-type layout, and users can thus easily check out all latest additions to the list of blogs and articles.
Sanskrit is an ancient language of India, a liturgical language of Hinduism and other Indian religions, and one of the 23 scheduled languages of India. It belongs to the historical Indo-Aryan family of languages. The digest was launched on June 18, 2008, with the sole intention of bringing all Sanskrit readers and bloggers together.
In the first week, the Digest has articles in nearly 10 categories that revolve around Sanskrit. It includes “Sanskrit Quotes” written by Kiran Paranjape, who was awarded Indic Blogger Award for best blog in Sanskrit. The wonderful ’subhashitanis’ that includes verses from Panchatantra, Bhartrihari’s Nitishatakam, and Bhagavadgita are written by Karthik Raman.
The Digest also compiles the articles on Sanskrit literature written by Kannan Srininvas (the author of Book “Vedic Management”) and Venetia Ansell (an English girl from Oxford University). Adding Sanatana Dharma to the context, they hope to pass the ancient wisdom, along with Sanskrit language.
The advances in web technology facilitates the creation of a virtual community just for Sanskrit enthusiasts. The RSS feeds, Widgets and Campaign buttons provide easy ways for readers to follow the updates, or learn Sanskrit glossary every day. You will find all these features packed in the parent site “Sanskrit Voice” hosted on http://sanskritvoice.com .
With the popularity of this Digest, it is clear that Sanskrit is still prized and widespread within the educated echelons of society.
