Around 2:02 : With respect, he has the translation of 'purohītaṃ' from agni-sukta totally wrong. The word "hita" has nothing to do with "enlightenment" neither does "puro" mean "anything/any field of activity". Vedic priests are called "purohita"-those placed forward. "puro" means forward. "hita" is the past participle of verbroot "hi", to impel and means placed. Agni here is analogically called the priest - the prime medium by which prayers are conveyed to Gods. And 'ṡloka' in RgVeda ?!!

A very good one. After listening to this please read the lectures(Boudhhiks) rendered by Shri M. S. Golwalkar( Guruji) compiled into a book as Bunch Of Thoughts in english and for those who knwo telugu translated as PANCHAJANYAM. Please read it. you will be enlightened with beautiful examples. Guruji has toured the entire country almost 64 times that too by road or train not by air meaning he did pradxina of the motherland so many times. A unique experience worth mentioning.

Sreekumar Nellickappilly commented on 18 Feb 2012

@MrKaych Hitam can be interpreted so. I'll explain. Hitam means "beneficial". The Indian concept of beneficial is relted to the theory of Purushartha and the highest purushartha is moksha or enlightenment. It is in this sense I interpreted him=tam as enlightenment. in philosophy, we aso consider the suggestive meaning apart from the etymology

MrKaych commented on 30 Jan 2012

@subramaniann1 Doesn't make sense to use Puranic "navadvarapuri" metaphor to establish etymology for much earlier Vedic purohita. In vedic, puraḥ also meant forefront eg. kṛnotu rathaṃ puraḥ. In Rgveda, cities (puraḥ) were not considered something good eg. Indra was called puraṃdara - destroyer of cities.

subramaniann1 commented on 27 Jan 2012

@MrKaych Hi Purohitam is a sandhi of Purah + Hitham. Purah or puram or puri like in Hastinapur means city loosely translated for example our body is called "navadwarapuram" city with nine exits and Hitam mean something that does good, like (hitham and ahitham )

@buffalo7564 IIT is no where close to an Ivy League... the students make up the IIT talent.. in terms of professors, at best 15-30% of them are good.. the rest is acceptable..

IIT Madras Part 3 - Q & A on Being Different

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 And btw sitting in tamil nadu that too with the help of sanskrit why a tamilian should create a word for Punjabi. Instead a tamilian would share his non translatable tamil word with the world and punjabi. This is like a christian saying jesus is the so special god, he gives huge power even a hindu in india could also feel the power of jesus if he prays him. This is the sort of arguement you make about sanskrit. Thats why the whole thesis of yours is hypocricy. you accept de difference

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 I am blaming central government because as sanskrit being the representative of Indo-eurpean language, tamil is the oldest remain of dravidian linguitic group. So what am asking is give equal treatment for each linguitic group. Give budget properly for Tamil classical research too. We need not mention about Austro-asiatic languages i.e tribal languages which dont have separate state they need central governemnt funding. And in state bureaucracy also thinks sanskrit special theory(cont

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 And you guys got to understand one thing Tamil also has many Unique dravidian root words which are unique and which are not translatable, telugu being a dravidian language also retained some dravidian root words in which is not seen in current tamil. Therefore while naming the respective linguists could assist the government. Am asking for Tribal Languages too. I am speaking this issue here because He goes on tom toming about Sanskrit is pan Indian. Its special, This makes me argue...

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 "There is a vast vocabulary in Sanskrit" Dude there is no necessity i should subscribe to your pride about Sanskrit. Btw under which authority any sanskrit pundits could make this tall claim that sanskrit is the only best language without knowing all the world languages. or all the Indian languages. Who gives the authority to whom. If i wanna comme in your path i would subscribe to Mahakavi Bharathi who said Tamil is the best language than sanskrit, since he well verse in 7 languages.

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 I am not rejecting the sanskrit language as such but i will reject till my death sanskrit language special theory. The moment you create a special for pan india thats it, it is the start of my rejection. I dont reject hindi or sanskrit as such. But their special status i bitterly reject those ideologies. These are hardline stands. So keep spreading sanskrit is the only special is not fait. Being different concept is good, if keep persisting sanskrit special then it becomes hypocricy.

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 Moreover another reason is Tamil, the oldest classical language of India like sanskrit, for Tamil, budget allocation is 20 cr and for Sanskrit it is 80 Cr. If this is the status of the Tamil means what about the other languages like telugu and etc etc... You just because sanskrit is portrayed the special, many of telugu children are reading Hindi or sanskrit in their school from pre-kg and they start learning the mother tongue in their mid age. They are loosing their command inTelugu

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

Dude u didnt repond to this act of him directly? "When a guy asks why you keep telling only about sanskrit, he should have responded saying yeah i agree we equally important different language tamil is also there matter ends there. Instead he tries to say that tamil has so and so % of sanskrit therefore nothing so different in it. This is his diluting effort." My problem they dont wanna recognise dravidian linguist group as a exclusive group, They wanna mask the difference. ... Thats problem

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 You need not repeat the same stories of Mr.Rajiv again to me. I have already got those thing from him come up with some new???? Am asking you and Mr.Rajiv stop enchanting only one language again again all over the world and stop creating a Pan India image for Sanskrit. Moreover sanskrit is being imposed in each and every act of the government. Why government needs to spend 80 crores every year for the Sanskrit university.DIS huge spending is not done 4 other endangered tribelanguage

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 None in India is rejecting their own culture(Dravidian Tamil or Telugu). The fear of Tamil people Sanskrit special theory going to haunt them and their language. Its not that only Sanskrit supporting people are the only sole custodian of Indian culture. Tamil too has its own granary of literatures, it has its past they too wanna stick to it. The main demon they see for the thousands of years is Sanskrit. This war between tamil and sanskrit ages back to thousands of years. continued-

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 Thats your belief about your fellow patriotic indians. They hate as much you are hating britishers for their attrocity. But after these many years you people are coming under the disguise of patriotism is to sell your sanskrit hegemony all over the country. Untill you people suppress this sanskrit hegemony and arguement of Sanskrit was the pan India language, there is not much threat to the unity of the country. Only you people are alienating dravidians by saying india is sanskrit.

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 Who is allowing it to perpetuate, what makes people perpetuate this misconception??? Is it not the Sanskritized Hindi pride makes them to perpetuate this???? Doesnt the Hinduthva Makes this to perpetuate??? Therefore for attaining economic social and cultural equality announcing all 22 languages as the official languages of Union. This reduces the Sanskrit special pride. So country could be united forever, without any fear. You want coexistence but according toSanskrit Hypocricy...

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 Why always each and every missiles or rockets governments schemes and what not, should only named in Sanskrit root words??? Why not those naming could be done with Dravidian or Tamil Root words or Any aborigine Indian language words. Why always you guys name it in Sanskrit. Is this not imposition??? Why only Devanagiri Script?? Why only Hindi is the official language???? Why not all 22 scheduled languages are not official. Why still Hindi national language misconception persists???

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 Come on dude. For Central government classical language research institute of both tamil and sanskrit there should be equality. Moreover the allocation of funds is very partial in nature. Ok lets leave Sanskrit and tamil What about the poor Tribal languages. Who gonna conserve them. they wont come under 22 scheduled languages. You know how much traditional and herbal knowledge is hidden in these languages??? Those knowledge never come under ayurveda or sidhdha, they are unique..

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 India is not a country. India is union of Nations. Sanskrit never been the Pan India. If you say Sanskrit was pan India then you mean to say only brahmans where living in this country. because had exclusivity upon that language. they didnt allow anyone else to speak that language to retain the power with them... Prakrit and Tamil Where dominant. You cant show a old sanskrit epigraph without Prakrit. Tamil has oldest epigraphs in equivalent to prakrit. The oldest tamil epigraph.

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 Yeah Hinduism could be the sole reason but not hinduthva, thats my problem. They are hardliners. They say Sanskrit is Special. Thats the moot point. Why this country should have only a sanskritized language as official language. Why not the well developed dravidian language Tamil. Take for example Agni, in my mother tongue telugu its called Nippu, and in Tamil Its neruppu, there are many classical tamil root word for Agni in this sort. Why named after it or a tribal language

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi I do agree that there are differences between Hindus, Buddhist and Jains... But not to the level they're exaggerated... None of the Hindu, Buddhist or Jain texts asks their followers to destroy others' worshipping places... They do not have that kind of Mandate... Yes, I saw Dasavataram... It was done by a Chola king. But you can not compare these incidents with the fact that these religions have been staying together for 4000 years... And Hindus and Jains much older than that

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi Indians never emphasized on written education... Education in India has always been oral... Becoz. the religion is as such... When ppl teach mantras the way spell them is important... Written education is something that has started recently. So you don't really find many Sanskrit epigraphs.. And Brahmans were not the only ones speaking Sanskrit... Sanskrit has been used by Buddhist and Jains as well. They're not limited to Prakrit... And Brahmins were not limited to Sanskrit.

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi To your question about his comment... So called dravidian languages are NOT exclusive... They're different just like other languages but NOT exclusive... The very idea that they're exclusive is a European creation... He clearly states that... It was the Europeans who demonized Sanskrit, as if it is something that was imposed on the South Indian states... I totally agree with his answer... If you ask me, recognizing them as a Dravidian linguistic group is the main problem...

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi Sanskritized Hindi is the official language of the Union... and every state has it's own official languages... A country needs an official language... They can't keep writing every word in all 22 languages... And if I go as per your logic, there shouldn't be 22 languages, there should be 1000s of them... And HIndi is official language, not the National language... And you're talking about Hindutva... Lemme tell you... Hinduism is the only reason why India is still united...

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi If you ask me, the real problem is our education system... In our olden days, scholars used to teach the both Sanskrit and their Mother tongue... Today ppl are money-minded... If not, why on earth would they learn English rather than learning their mother tongues first... And one thing I wanna say... I agree with the fact that many ppl are learning Hindi from early schooling... But not many people are learning Sanskrit... Infact, very few schools teach Sanskrit nowadays...

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 "And not accepting the uniqueness of Sanskrit and blindly rejecting it is bad as well..." This is called imposition of your special theory on us. I accept sanskrit is language of India, it should be conserved, researched and developed like any other languages of india like tamil, telugu, toda, and irula... There is no so called special for any language. Give the equal foot space for all the languages to stand atleast on their toes. Dont buldoze using sanskrit special.

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi First of all, this got nothing to with the book... The topic in the book is totally different... Anyways, What's wrong with using those words anyway... Agni, Prithvi, Aakash, are not just Sanskrit words... The Tatbhava words of these Sanskrit words exist in all Indian languages... The words in Telugu are Agni, Pruthvi and Aakasam... And Telugu ppl do no't have any problem with that.. It is written in Devanagari becoz. Sanskritized Hindi is the official language of India

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi Frankly speaking, if you create a word in Tamil Nadu... A guy in Punjab can understand it... Provided both of them know Sanskrit... This is exactly the reason why Sanskrit is called a Pan Indian language... There is a vast vocabulary in Sanskrit becoz, of this reason... And it belongs to all regions becoz. no one knows in which region the words originated... They originated from all over India... It's a like an Open source code... And that's reason why it is special...

bvenvi commented on 10 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 "But they didn't oppose Sanskrit texts" ----- This is conformly fairy tale. Tamils opposed sanskrit more than Prakrit. May be after bhakti movement some tamil kings got opiumed by religion and slowly sansrit brahmins predated tamil pride. Tamil has more prakrit loan words than sanskrit, Even telugu too have more Prakrit than Sanskrit. The best example for tamil sanskrit brahmin fight is already explainde to you, is well screened in dasavatharam movie too...

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 "Indians never emphasized on written education... " If you say i have to ask you Which indian do you mean??? Dravidian Indian or tribal Indian or Aryan Indian?? So please dont generalise and jump to tall claims Indians where doing so and so. Tamil kings had uniques tradion. Especially sangam Literature Tamils. Many budhdhists where not well verse only in Sanskrit they where good in Prakrit and other languages too. Many Epigraphs are in Prakrit and Tamil.

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi Just for your info... My mother tongue is also Telugu... Anyways, I will tell you how Sanskrit is special... Every letter in Sanskrit, has a meaning, Words in Sanskrit are formed based on the idea... You can know the meaning of a Sanskrit word just by looking at the letters of the word... For example, in Ayurveda just by reading the word, you can understand all its medicinal properties... And you can create new words depending on the situation.. Contd...

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi He is not diluting any differences... He is just rejecting the misconceptions... There're differences, there're misconceptions... The number one misconception is the Aryan-Dravidian divide... And he clearly rejects it I also reject it... If you ask me, that is the reason for all the problems in India today... Anyways, I don't think this discussion is going anywhere... I just feel sad to see Indians rejecting their own culture and hating their past...

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi He didn't emphasize becoz. his aim is to show common things between India and West... And most of the book is about Samskriti... Not Samskrutam... And his main aim is to show this Samskriti... And this book deals a lot with religious differences... Infact, the book is about comparing Dharmic Traditions with Judeo-Christian traditions... And there is emphasis on Sanskrit becoz. the core Hindu thought and many Buddhist and Jain works are in Sanskrit...

chotu77 commented on 09 Dec 2011

@bvenvi Did you even see the whole video properly??? He later clearly tells that he is against diluting differences... He is saying are Indians have similarities which are exclusive to them, to their culture, to their religions, which are absent in West... The whole purpose of him writing this book is to show those common differences between India and the West... His aim is to show the common points in Indian culture which are exclusive to Indians alone...

bvenvi commented on 09 Dec 2011

@77chotu77 And in state bureaucracy also thinks sanskrit special theory is predominant hence they disrespect the tribal languages. For that matter not even a proper plan yet been made to conserve them. Central government policies being partial towards sanskrit is not healthy for the country. To maintain unity central governemnt cant escape answering these questions. You know how much planned imposition of hindi happens in central government institutions???
