Quotes:Sanskrit

H. P. Blavatsky

Sanskrit. The classical language of the Brahmans, never known nor spoken in its true systematized form (given later approximately by Pânini), except by the initiated Brahmans, as it was pre‐eminently “a mystery language”. It has now degenerated into the so‐called Prâkrita.
