SANSKRIT LANGUAGE

Sanskrit: Beyond Present Understanding

Sanskrit as a language to ‘Enhance’ human intelligence. 

Several Indology Scholars Have Termed Sanskrit Language to be a Dead Language

It is a highly advanced system of knowledge—designed with a precise purpose that modern scholarship has largely failed to recognize.

My research, based on the study of more than 450 ancient Indian texts, indicates that Sanskrit was never meant to function as an everyday spoken dialect.

While many Indian and Western scholars label Sanskrit as a dead language because it is not commonly used in daily conversation, this conclusion itself reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of its true nature.

Sanskrit Is Not an Ordinary Language

My hypothesis is simple yet profound:

Sanskrit was never created for
casual communication.


It is an advanced linguistic and cognitive system, intentionally structured to work with human intelligence and consciousness, not marketplace conversation.

This understanding emerges clearly from the nature of ancient texts themselves:

All original Vedas and Puranas are composed in Vedic Sanskrit, not in later classical or colloquial forms.

These texts are delivered entirely in precise metrical verses, not explanatory prose or paragraphs.

According to the traditional chronology preserved in these texts, Sanskrit was revealed at the very inception of this cosmic cycle—approximately 1,943,789,125 years before 2024.

This alone should compel us to question the modern assumption that Sanskrit evolved merely as a social language.

The Limits of Modern Scientific Perspective Modern science largely operates within a narrow human-centric framework. It studies humans in isolation, while ignoring the larger intelligence of the ecosystem in which humans exist.

Yet even today, despite all technological advancement, every essential input for human survival—food, air, water—comes directly from nature.

The ancient Indian worldview never separated humans from nature. Modern science, absorbed in its own intellectual uncertainty, often overlooks this fundamental dependency.

This blind spot prevents it from understanding why a language like Sanskrit was structured the way it was.

The Two True Purposes of Sanskrit

My research indicates that Sanskrit serves two critical purposes, both still unrecognized by mainstream science:

Reprogramming the human brain–intelligence system

Sanskrit verses are not informational statements; they are structured alphabetical patterns designed to interact with the neurological and cognitive framework of the human brain.

Communication with higher fields of consciousness and intelligence

Sanskrit functions as an interface language—capable of interacting with the subtle fields of Brahm, consciousness, and intelligence that continuously pervade existence.

Theory of Intelligence

Enhancement Based on ancient textual evidence and supported by emerging findings in neuroscience, I present a clear theory of how Sanskrit enhances human intelligence.

This is not philosophical speculation—it is a logical derivation from scriptural structure, sound science, and cognitive function.

This marks the first and primary purpose of Sanskrit, and it opens an entirely new way of understanding language, intelligence, and human potential.

What follows is not reinterpretation—it is rediscovery.

Theory of
Sanskrit and Human Intelligence

Ancient Indian wisdom makes a direct and powerful connection between sense control, intelligence, and human suffering

In the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, it is clearly stated that when human beings lose control over their senses, their intelligence deteriorates.

When intelligence is destroyed, human actions deviate from righteousness, leading to errors, suffering, and what scriptures describe as sin.

This decline of intelligence can be understood in modern terms as a corruption in the programming of the human brain.

When this internal programming is disturbed, humans lose the ability to take correct decisions. Wrong decisions inevitably produce suffering—both at the individual and societal levels.

Can Corrupted Intelligence Be Corrected?

Modern science still struggles to offer a unified and precise definition of intelligence.

In contrast, ancient Hindu scriptures not only define intelligence but also provide systematic methods to correct, refine, and enhance it.

A vast majority of Vedic practices are, directly or indirectly, aimed at restoring the optimal functioning of human intelligence.

Are Sanskrit Hymns and Mantras Software for the Brain?

My theory proposes that Sanskrit hymns and mantras function like software strings for the human brain-computer.

Through carefully structured sound patterns, they have the ability to correct corrupted intelligence and elevate cognitive clarity.

In today’s world, humans are constantly bombarded with sensory stimuli—products, media, and experiences designed solely to gratify the senses.

This relentless sensory overload has severely weakened our control over sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell. As a result, impulsive desires dominate decision-making, leading to actions that disrupt both personal balance and social harmony.

Over time, this distorts the very process of thinking.

The path to emerge from this condition has been described in detail in The Eternal Path of Vedic Practices.

Refer to This Page

A central requirement of this path is the chanting of specific hymns and mantras in Sanskrit.

The Human Body as an Advanced System

As discussed earlier and as has been pointed out in ancient Hindu texts, the human physical body is a tool and can be compared to a highly advanced robot.

At its core lies the brain-computer, which governs perception, thought, and decision-making.

Ancient Indian texts describe the Gyanendriyas—the organs that input information into the brain:
Eyes
Ears
Nose
Skin
Tongue

Language enters the brain only through these sense organs:

1. Seeing – reading silently or visually processing written language
2. Hearing – listening to spoken or chanted language
3. Speaking aloud – which combines thought formation with auditory feedback

There are no direct physical or wired connections to the brain.

All data must pass through the senses. This understanding is far more advanced than modern attempts to connect the brain to machines through physical interfaces.

Correcting the Brain’s Programming

A conventional computer can be cleaned of viruses using external tools.

The human brain, however, can only be corrected through appropriate sensory inputs, particularly structured language input.

The Vedas were revealed as a guide for the proper functioning of human life and society. They contain numerous Sanskrit hymns, each designed with a specific purpose. Some hymns are expressions of devotion, while others are precise tools meant to neutralize the effects of past and present actions.

Ancient texts repeatedly explain that suffering arises from accumulated actions across lifetimes. These actions disturb the clarity of intelligence and corrupt mental programming.

Among the many corrective processes described, the recitation of specially designed Sanskrit hymns and Mantras occupies a central place.

These hymns may be understood as anti-virus programs for the human brain. By cleansing distorted patterns of thought, they restore clarity, balance, and correct decision-making.

With purified intelligence, a human being naturally moves toward a more peaceful life—one that supports higher knowledge, creativity, and true inner growth.

In this light, Sanskrit is not merely a language—
it is a technology of intelligence.


Why Sanskrit Alone Works

All of this is possible only and only when the hymns are recited in the Sanskrit language itself—not when they are translated into any other language.

Mantras and hymns lose their functional precision the moment they are translated.

A translation may convey meaning, but it cannot preserve the exact alphabetical structure that Sanskrit language uniquely carries.

Meaning is secondary; alphabet is primary.

Sanskrit is, in effect, the native language of the human brain–supercomputer.

The human brain does not respond merely to ideas or emotions—it responds to structured alphabetical inputs.

Sanskrit was engineered with extraordinary precision so that its phonetics, intonations, and metrical arrangements directly interact with neural and cognitive processes. This is why Sanskrit hymns are composed in strict meters and why even a minor alteration in pronunciation is traditionally considered incorrect.

No other language in the world has been designed with this objective.

It is important to note that no other religion, faith system, or ancient civilization anywhere on Earth offers a comparable methodology.

Nowhere else do we find a complete, systematic use of language as a tool for correcting, refining, and upgrading human intelligence itself.

Other traditions rely on belief, emotion, or moral instruction.

Sanskrit-based practices go far deeper—they operate at the level of cognitive programming.

This is precisely why:

Translated prayers may inspire devotion but cannot perform the same function
Sanskrit mantras must be heard, spoken, and internalized exactly as they are
The power lies not in translation and interpretation, but in execution

Sanskrit is not sacred merely because it is ancient. It is sacred because it is functional. In this context, Sanskrit should be understood not as a cultural artifact, but as a precision technology for human intelligence—one that has no parallel anywhere else in the world. 

Therefore, the Sanskrit hymns and mantras need to be selected as per prescribed requirements in the Vedic texts and not picked up at random and recited.

This is a science in itself.

Sanskrit Language
Relationship with Numbers

Certain initial research work on the ancient Indian texts is now showing that Sanskrit language is also deeply connected to the mathematics numerals.

 For the knowledge of the readers a system known as Katapayadi exists in the ancient Sanskrit literature. In this system each Sanskrit alphabet is assigned a number

Sanskrit Language Relationship with Numbers

For the knowledge of the readers a system known as Katapayadi exists in the ancient Sanskrit literature. In this system each Sanskrit alphabet is assigned a number.

Very interesting verses have been found in the ancient Indian literature. A famous verse found in Sankara Varman’s text Sad-Ratnamala is reproduced as below

भद्राम्बुद्धिसिद्धजन्मगणितश्रद्धा स्म यद्ब भूपगी:।।

When I split the alphabets used and make a corresponding table giving numerals for each complete consonant, I get the following 

423979853562951413

When the above row of numerals is reversed you get

314159265358979324

The above number is the value of Pi in mathematics correct to 17 decimal places. The last digit is rounded off to 4.

The following verse encrypts the value of Pi up to 31 decimal places:

गोपीभाग्यमधुव्रात-श्रुग्ङिशोदधिसन्धिग।
खलजीवितखाताव गलहालारसंधर।।


Gives 31415926535897932384626433832792

Which is value of Pi to 31 decimal places.

Above is known from only cursory research into the ancient Indian texts and such a matching of numbers definitely cannot be a coincidence.

Similar fascinating uses exist in plenty in ancient Indian texts using Sanskrit language. We also know that all known prayers from ancient Hindu texts are in Sanskrit language and are in the form of verses or ‘Shlokas’ as they are called in Sanskrit language. This indicates that a very strong connection exists between the formations of verses and their encryption in numerals.

The verses have not been formed out of meanings alone, but they also represent a formation of string of numbers which has a definite purpose of which mankind is not aware of.

The same prayer or mantra when spoken also creates a thought process and that process is again linked to the string of numbers.

Now remember that all the data that is stored in computers is in the form of mathematical numerals.

Therefore, the human brain which is a gargantuan computer also has the capability of analyzing the string of numbers spoken and creates a certain particular intelligence or capability or skill which a person can then use to own advantage.

Sanskrit Language and Music

The Sanskrit language and its link with numbers is not limited to this only but is deeply related to the Indian music. The melakarta ragas in the Carnatic system of music are named in such a manner that the first two syllables of the name will give its number.

Readers may note the following in Carnatic music:

1. Melakartas 1 through 36 have Ma1 and those from 37 to 72 have Ma2.

2. The other notes being derived by taking the quotient and remainder of the (Melakarta number minus one) divided by 6.

3. The Swaras Sa and Pa are fixed.

4. Ri and Ga positions in the raga will have
Ri1 and Ga1 if the quotient is 0
Ri1 and Ga2 if the quotient is 1
Ri1 and Ga3 if the quotient is 2
Ri2 and Ga2 if the quotient is 3
Ri2 and Ga3 if the quotient is 4
Ri3 and Ga3 if the quotient is 5

5. Similarly, for Da and Ni positions.

Music we all know has a way to calm down our thought process and our mind. We also know that music soothes the nerves. It is also the truth that Indian music has standard sets of ragas based upon which just any number of unique melodious songs can be created as the history of Indian music shows.

The music hence reduces the wavering of human mind. With reduced wavering of mind, the focus of mind is improved.

As is evident in the above discussion Indian music can also be presented in the terms of strings of numbers. The music when it enters the human system through the process of hearing ultimately reaches the brain.

It is the brain that ultimately receives the string of numbers, thereby producing a certain effect upon the functioning of the brain, thus affecting the intelligence of a human being.

In contrast today’s Western music produces a jarring effect upon the human brain.
This jarring effect further increases the wavering of the mind and takes the human brain towards lower intelligence.

Conclusions can be drawn as to how scientific the Sanskrit language is. How important is its impact on human brain? How scientific is Indian classical music? Certainly, this requires deep full-fledged research by mathematics and Sanskrit scholars in an organized manner.

Scientific research conducted in Western countries is already showing that reciting Sanskrit hymns improves the intelligence levels in humans.

There is no doubt that the future of science, computers, human wellbeing, our communication with Gods is intricately connected with the Sanskrit language and most important Sanskrit is the language of Programming of Human Intelligence.
