"The perfect orderliness of the Sanskrit language creates orderliness and balance in the brain physiology, expands the memory, and purifies the physiology." - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Sanskrit is the language of the Vedic Tradition of India and is known as the mother of all languages. Your Kindergarten student will begin by learning the Sanskrit alphabet. During the Lower and Middle School years, he or she will progress to read the classical texts of Vedic Literature, such as the Bhagavad-Gita, in the original Devanagri script. By Upper School, your student will be ready to study Sanskrit grammar. He or she will read Sanskrit aloud for ten minutes at the beginning of the school day and enjoy the settling effect of the rhythms and sounds of this ancient language.Scientific research has shown that during the reading or recitation of Sanskrit the functioning of the brain becomes highly orderly and coherent, enhancing the overall development of the student, the basis of effective and enjoyable learning. Pronouncing the sounds of the Vedic Literature enlivens balance and integration in the mind and body of the students.
