Sanskrit is one of the noblest languages that human genius has brought forth!
Because of its grandeur, it is one of the most difficult to understand. Sanskrit is the learned language of India, the language of its cultured inhabitants, the language of its religion, philosophy, literature, and science, a language very much alive in the heart-life of its people. The actual word for it is 'Samskritham.' Sanskrit (unfortunately) is the westernized version of Samskritham.
Sanskrit can be proud that it has never been a living language used in the market place. It is a language of the mystics. It is not worldly, that is true; it is something otherworldly. In fact, this is the extra-ordinariness of the language, that it was only used by a very few people of tremendous understanding. Their each word has immense significance, because it is coming out of a deep experience of reality of their own being. Sanskrit is a language that evolved out of the spiritual, not the material, needs of humans. The deeper a language becomes, the more meanings it develops; and when a language becomes multi-dimensional, it is but natural that it becomes more intricate. Sanskrit is one such language; complicated and intricate!
The ultimate purpose of any language must be to show the way to the Reality. This ideal, however, is miserably thwarted in its application in most cases. Language is made up of words. Each word must at least have two meanings.
1. The literal meaning; and
2. The ultimate meaning.
The literal meaning of every word pertains to name and form alone and the ultimate
meaning pertains to the Reality. If you cling to the former you get lost in the world of illusion, and if you cling to the latter you are taken to the center of your own being, the Reality.
Sanskrit language is best suited to achieve the purpose of taking you to the Reality. The literal meaning of the word Sanskrit is 'perfected' or 'perfectly created' (Sam+Krit). Some of its unique features are the following:
1. Words represent properties instead of objects. This important feature leads to have infinite number of words and makes the dictionary redundant. Because you can make up different words denoting different properties of the same one object. For example, a tree in Sanskrit is called vriksha which means something that is cut and felled down. Similarly, there are many other words that can be used to denote a tree. Tharu, paadap may also denote a tree. But even these words do not necessarily mean a tree. Tharu means something that floats and paadap means something that drinks using its feet.
2. The sounds of letters are fixed and precise from the very beginning. They were never changed, altered, improved, or modified. All the words always have the same pronunciation. Sanskrit is the most "phonetic" language in the world. This is evident from the word 'akshara.' Sanskrit letters are called aksharas. In other languages, we refer them as alphabets, which is derived from the names of the first two letters of Greek. The term alphabet has no other meaning except the set of letters in the language. In contrast, the word akshara in Sanskrit denotes something fundamental and significant. One of the direct meanings of the word is that it denotes the set of letters from the first letter 'a' to the last letter 'ksha.'
The word also means that the sound of the letter does not ever get destroyed and this signifies the eternal quality of the sound of the letters. 'Kshara' means unstable, 'akshara' means the opposite of kshara which is stable. The consequence of this meaning is that the sound of a word is essentially the sounds of the aksharas in the word. We can also see how the word represents the property of the object! It has been designed to be what it is! Sanskrit does not, and there is no need to, borrow any words from any other language. Sanskrit grammar had been also precise and had never been changed from day one! Thus, Sanskrit is not a product of evolution from an earlier language.
3. Sanskrit language is very profound where the words convey the inner or essential meaning. Look at the word 'rupa.' 'Rupa' means form. It also means beauty. When you see the beauty in objects; subject and object vanish, leaving only the perceiving or knowing of it. Similarly the word 'bhaavana.' It means feeling as well as meditation. Highest form of feeling is love or meditation!
4. There are a total of fifty two letters (52) in Sanskrit language. These letters (16 vowels and 36 consonants) and words are actual reflections of the inherent 'sound' of that object, concept, or phenomena. In other words, they are based upon energy/vibration. Saying any word in Sanskrit produces an actual physical vibration parallel to its meaning! That is why mantras in their exact forms are used for healing and or japa meditation. Sanskrit letters are also called maatrikas, mother sounds, that are born out of the primordial sound, AUM.
5. Sanskrit words are generated using dhaathus, prefixes, and suffixes in a precise grammatical order. There are two thousand and twelve dhaathus in all which are basically an elementary indivisible units of the language. Let us take the dhaathu, kru which means to do, make, manifest, cause, or prepare. Adding suffix tha, kritha means something that is done. Krithi means an object obtained/manifested as a result of doing. Now adding a prefix pra to krithi makes it prakrithi (nature) which is the existence prior to manifestation (pra denotes before or in front of), or manifestation in a dormant form (because it still exists). By adding suffixes and prefixes to a dhaathu, we can form new dhaathus. And there is no limit to how many times a dhaathu can occur in a word! Millions of words, thus, can easily be created this way - in a systematic and scientific way. This feature of Sanskrit also makes the dictionary redundant!
6. Sanskrit uses programming concepts to shorten the language. It uses eight kinds of vibhakthis to form twenty four variations of a noun that would simplify the sentence structure. The following two features are made possible by the use of vibhakthis.
7. No punctuation marks are necessary.
8. Sanskrit is a word-order-free language! Words can be in any order, meaning is the same. This gives the flexibility to arrange the words in any sequence so it is poetically pleasing and also easy to remember. This is the reason how the Vedic literature is handed down from generation to generation orally before being committed to writing.
For example: Raamah graamam gacchathi (Raama goes to a village) can lead up to six combinations of word order. And the overall meaning of all these six sentences is the same, even though in a given context one of them may be more suitable than the others!
9. Every word in Sanskrit has multi-meanings; no word is fixed, solid; it is liquid, flowing. You can derive many meanings through it. It depends on you. Sanskrit has many shades, many colors; it is not a dead stone, it is an alive flower. A reader can change his moods through these words, and he can change his words through his moods. It is said that a reader will interpret a Sanskrit text in a manner consistent with his level of awareness and understanding!
10. Sanskrit is the language that composes what has been recognized as the earliest text on the planet, Rig Veda. It is also known that it was an oral tradition long before it became a written language. It had to have been in existence for quite some time then - long before most other languages, all of which are far less developed than Sanskrit. Sanskrit has also no need for improvement, evolution; it has been in its pristine form from its inception.
So, how could there have been a parent language (called proto-indo-european) that was the basis of forming Sanskrit which had to have been almost as sophisticated as Sanskrit that is said to no longer exist? That is a ridiculous claim.
Sanskrit, therefore, is considered to be the oldest language in the world, being at least 6,000 years old, and probably much older. According to Genesis 11:1, the whole earth in the beginning had one language and one speech. It is quite possible that Sanskrit is that language. Darwinian Evolution cannot explain why and how written language with this kind of precision, accuracy, sophistication appeared suddenly about 6,000 years ago!
Now, let us look for the clues that Sanskrit language was the original language that was existent everywhere on this planet, at one time in the past.
1. There are overwhelming similarities in the original names of all the places on earth which indicate that the entire world was named in one tongue at one convergent past. It is funny that most of the ancient place names have no meaning from the local languages. But when all these place names are evaluated in Sanskrit, the meaning is found that fits the description of the nature of that place! Isn't it amazing?! These places could be country names, city names, river names, mountain names, etc. Following are some examples. The list describes the present name, it's Sanskrit equivalent and it's Sanskrit meaning.
-Siberia-Shibiria-Region of camps/tents
-Soviet-Sveth-white (or the land of snow)

-Tennessee (river)-Thamasee-Slow moving (river)
-Nile (river)-Neela-Blue
-Niger (river in Africa)-Nayee ja-Born of Lead
-Thames (river in UK)-Thamas-Dark, slow
-Arabia-Arvasthan-Land of horses (very common to pronounce 'v' as 'b')

-Notre Dame-Mathru Dham-Mother's Abode (Notre Dame is known as "Our Lady" in France)
-Stonehenge-Sthavanakunge-Meditation Bower
-Sahara (desert)-Saagara-(Dried up bed of) ocean
-Town-Sthan, pronounced as stawn, minus 's' makes it tawn-Place of Living
-Bury (suffix for many town names in UK like in Salisbury)-Pury-Town
-Village-Vilaas-Dwelling Place
-Terrain-Dharani-Earth (Dharani bacame Tarrani and then Terrani over time)
-Mediterranea(n)-Madhya Dharani Ya-Middle of Two (Large) Land Masses (of Europe and Africa)
-X mas (tenth mas)-X Mas-Mas=tenth month starts in the last part of December per Vedic Calendar
-Church (place of congregation)-Churcha-Discussion in a congregation
Now, let us look into a second area which is a big part of our culture!
2. Music is a universal language. It is a well known fact that music has been an important part of all civilizations from the beginning. One of the greatest proofs of humanity having had a head start with Vedic civilization, the oldest, is found in the universality of Vedic music. The current notion that man developed language, music, medicine, science, technology, etc. beginning from a wild, cave-man stage does not seem to be plausible. In fact, it is ridiculous. Likewise, the notion that Eastern and Western music developed independently of each other is not accurate.
All music originated from the Saamaveda (one of the four Vedas found in India, 1200 BCE). Saamaveda lays down the ground rules for music (Saaman=song). The Bibilical stanzas are known as psalms precisely because the stanzas of Saamaveda used to be sung in Europe prior to Christianity. Let us examine some of the words associated with music.
-Psalms-Saamans (meaning songs)-Stanzas from Saamaveda
-Song-Sangeet-Instrumental music (San=accompanying, geet=song)
-Sitar-Sapt tar (Saptar)-Seven wires
-Vocal-Vachal-Pertaining to human voice
-Gargle-Gar gala-Gar sound produced by throat
-Thabla-Thaal bala-Strength of rythmic beat
-Harmonium-Sa re ma ni um-Pertaining to (four of seven) basic notes of Vedic music sa, re, ma and ni
-Drum-Damru-Lord Shiva's music instrument (that makes dhum, dhum sound representing/producing AUM)
-Piccolo-Pikavali-Row of (sweet) notes by cuckoo bird called Pika
-Band (music band)-Bandh-Tie or a group tied together
-Kavvali-Kavyavali-Row of versified lines
-Lilting-Lalit-Enchanting
-Rhythm-Ritham-A systematic arrangement
-Prosody-Praasaadi-Rythmatic sound
-Foot (in poem)-Charan-Foot (of a poem in Vedic tradition)
-Poet-Bhat-Person capable of composing poems
-Ballad-Bhal da-That which imparts strength, energy and inspiration
-Guitar-Geet tar-Song producing string
-Piano-Veena-Vedic sage Narada's instrument (veena=beena=beano=peano=piano)
3. Similar connections can be found in the areas of time and earth measurements, astrology, education, arts, weights and measures, architecture, etc. This is undeniable evidence that Sanskrit was once used as the common language throughout the world.
In summary...Since all the words of Sanskrit denote their property and are traceable to specific roots, a feature that has always been intact from day one and which is not seen in other languages, one can presume that Sanskrit is most certainly the origin of all civilized or structured languages in the world.
As an example, take the word "danta" (pronounced as "dhantha"). We know that it means a tooth. We have to use our teeth to produce the sound of the word "danta" - the tongue has to make an impact on the teeth. You will note this phenomenon when you ask a toothless person to say "danta." He will not he able to vocalize the word clearly. English word "dental" comes from "danta." "Dental" or variations of this word are also used in other European languages. However, we get the sound "dental" as a result of the tip of our tongue touching our upper palate; we don't need teeth to pronounce it. So "danta" must be the root form of the word denoting tooth. So, you see it now. It is only in Sanskrit that the sound/formation of the word itself signifies its property/meaning. Sanskrit is a wordy form of mathematics, everything precisely defined.
Sanskrit has no need to borrow any words from any other language; it has been in its pristine form from the beginning.
Sanskrit, therefore, could not have been a derivative of any other language. Sanskrit is the source or mother of all languages.
It is said that Lord Shiva (as the Creator) formed Sanskrit letters from the primordial sound of AUM (pronounced as OM) while playing his music instrument, 'damru.' English word 'drum' is a distorted form of 'damru.' 'Ayam' in Sanskrit means 'This-ness' and comes from AUM. AUM is considered to be the sacred soundless sound from which the universe has apparently emanated (Western definition of God as Omnipresent, Omniscient and Omnipotent originated from the all-encompassing OM or AUM). The impersonal sense/feeling of presence (or the sense of being aware), "I AM," here and now, is the only Truth in Manifestation that is not a concept. Is it not easy to see that the English word 'I AM' comes from AUM?!
Is it not easy to see that the English word 'script' (which means a written text) comes from the pronunciation of 'skrit' from Sanskrit?!
