An inscription in Bramhi Script and Prakrit language
An inscription in Bramhi Script and Prakrit language

It was Never the Language of Common People

Recently my Marathi book on this subject has been published and I would like to translate some chapters of it in English to publish on hub.

Some Facts About Sanskrit Language

1. Sanskrit is not the oldest language of India, Tamil is. Check this in any standard GK book for competitive exams or any standard book of linguistics. Prakirt languages like Magadhi, Ardhamagadhi and Shourseni are much older than classical Sanskrit.

2. The oldest inscriptions in India are in Prakrit languages, not in Sanskrit. It is a fact that the none of the edicts of Emperor Ashok are in Sanskrit. If Sanskrit language existed at his time, some of his edicts were in this language, as his edicts are not only in Magadhi language, but also in other languages including Greek.

3. Bhagwan Mahavir and Goutam Buddha gave their sermons in Prakrit languages (Addhamagadhi and Magadhi, respectively) and they spoke nothing in Sanskrit. The real reason of this is that Sanskrit did not exist at their time. If Sanskrit existed that time, they would have spoken in Sanskrit at least with Kings like Shrenik Bimbisar or with their Bramhin disciples.

4. The so called Sanskrit of Vedas is different language from the Sanskrit of later period. The language of Vedas is Chhandas, and not Sanskrit. Chhandas is another form of Prakrit languages.

5. Later Jain Acharyas, who were of Bramhin origin used Sanskrit for writing Jain texts. They gave a Vedic touch to Jain philosophy in their writings. You can see it clearly in Acharya Jinsena's literature, who was a born Vedic Bramhin and who turned south Indian Jainism into ritualistic and Vedic like Jainism. Same thing happened in case of Buddhist literature.

6. Prakrit Jain literature is loyal with original Jain philosophy, Sanskrit Jain literature is not. Again check this by comparing Acharya Kundkundas Prakrit texts with Acharya Jinsena's literature.

7. Sanskrit language had no script for writings as they did not believe in writing. Later they adopted Brahmi, Nagari and other scripts. They also used regional language scripts for this language and today even Roman script is being used. Please have a look at: Sanskrit: a Language Without Script

8. Today's most of the Indian languages are of Prakrit origins. Sanskrit is also of Prakrit origin. So Sanskrit is not mother of languages like Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi etc, but she is just a sister of them. Sanskrit has no children.

9. Sanskrit was never a language of Masses. It was even not spoken by Brahmins. It was just a language rituals and Vedic literature of later time.

10. There are many similarities between Slavic & other European languages like Russian, German, Latin etc. and Sanskrit. But there are many distinctive features between Sanskrit and other Indian languages. This suggest that the people who created Sanskrit language by culturing Prakrut languages, were of European origin. You may like to read: European Origin of Sanskrit Language

11. Most of the stories in classical Sanskrit languages originally were written in Prakrit languages.Sanskrit translated the stories and destroyed the original sources. Plagiarism was base of Sanskrit language. See: Plagiarism by Sanskrit Authors

12. Great scholars of linguistics, Sanskrit, History and Sociology have given negative comments on Sanskrit languages. See a collection of their quotes at: What The Great Scholars Said About Sanskrit Language?

The final fact: Sanskrit is a dead language.

Few more facts from above source:

Sanskrit came from Tamil. 40% tamil words are in Sanskrit.

Sanskrit is known as 'Sankatham' in Tamil. Sanskrit is an artifical language and it was coined in Kanji, Tamil Nadu.
Now tell us, how is the Sanskrit the ancient language? The North Indians want to see themselves as light skinned. This is the fate of stupid India.

Read SIVAMALA's post in UNARVUKAL.COM below:

1.3 Non-Existsnce of Sanskrit Before 500 BC /bThe prime fact which has been suppressed by the Anglo-Brahmin elite is that Sanskrit did not exist prior to the 6th century BC. This circumstance is evident from the following points :

bVedas - The word `Sanskrit' does not occur anywhere in the Vedas. Not a single verse mentions this word as denoting a language.

Chandasa - The Vedic language was referred to as Chandasa even by Panini himself Chatt., p. 63 , and not as `Sanskrit'.

Buddha - The Buddha was advised to translate his teachings into the learned man's tongue - the `Chandasa' standard Chatt., p. 64 , there is no mention of any `Sanskrit'. The Buddha refused, preferring the Prakrits. There is not even a single reference in any contemporary Buddhist texts to the word `Sanskrit'. This shows that Sanskrit did not even exist at the time of the Buddha and that the people at that period, even the Brahmins themselves, were not aware of themselves as speaking `Sanskrit'; they referred to their language as `Chandasa'.

Ramayana - The word `Sanskrit' occurs for the first time as referring to a language in the Ramayana : "In the latter Ramayana the term `samskrta' "formal, polished", is encountered, probably for the first time with reference to the language"

-- EB 22 `Langs', p. 616 It is to be noted that extant versions of the Ramayana date only to the centuries AD.

Asokan Script - The first inscriptions in Indian history are in Prakrit and not in Sanskrit. These are by the Mauryan King Ashoka (c. 273 BC - 232 BC ), and number over 30. They date to the 4th century BC. The script utilised is not `sacred' Devanagari, and the language is not `Mother' Sanskrit. They are mostly in the Brahmi script, while 2 inscriptions are in Kharoshtri. They are in various Prakrits and some in Afghanistan are in Greek and Aramaic Bas,. p. 390-1 . In fact all inscriptions in India were in Prakrit till the early centuries AD : "The earlier inscriptions up to the 1st century AD, were all in Prakrit"

-- Up., p. 164

Satavahana Inscriptions - The Satavahanas, the first historical dynasty of the Deccan, also used a Prakrit language. There is no usage of Sanskrit. The Nagarjunikonda insrciptions are by the Satvahana king Vijaya Satakarni in the early 3rd cetnruy AD & end with the Ikshvaku Rudrapurusadatta who ruled for 11 years in the second quarter of the 4th century. Most of the large number of inscriptions are in Prakrit and only a few belonging to Ehuvulu Santamula are in Sanskrit (he ruled during the last 24 years of the 3rd to the early 4th century AD ) but even most of his inscriptions are in Prakrit and those which are in Sasnkrit are heavily influenced by Prakrit Bhatt., p. 408 ftn. 46 .

The Nanaghat cave inscriptions in Poona distt. are in Prakrit and are the work of the Satavahana Satakarni I. They have been dated to the first half of the 1st century BC. The contemporary relgiion of this region was Vedic. Indra and Vasudev are mentioned as the Vedic gods then worshipped Bas, p. 395 . The later cave inscriptions of Nasik in the 1st and 2nd centuries AD are in the local Prakrit Bas, p. 395 . Thus, although the Vedic religion was followed in the Satavahana regions, Sanksrit was not in use.

Gandhari - Even Gandhari existed prior to Sanskrit. The Pali Dhammapada in Gandhari was discovered at Khotan in Kharoshtri script. It dates to the 1st or 2nd century AD. A Gandhari insrcription was discovered on a copper casket containing relics of the Lord Sakyamuni Bas, p. 393 .

Kharavela's Kalinga Inscription - Kharavela's Kalingan inscription of the 1st century BC were in a Prakrit of the east indian type. Interseting is the first mention of the word Bharatavarsha in an inscription. Kharavela is described as invading Bharatavarsha, which then evidently denoted only North India Bas, p. 393 .

First Sanskrit Inscription : 150 AD - The earliest inscription in Sanskrit is by the Saka

You are quoting all are based on pre notion viewers who does not want "THE WORLD TTWO GREAT CLASSICAL LANGUAGES" Belong to India.

Tamil has equally borrowed from Sanskrit.
