BrAhma muhUrtaM ब्राह्म मुहूर्तम् -- प्रति (प्र उपसर्ग, तिङ् प्रत्यय) और प्रातः पर्याय हैं। प्रति प्रातः सूर्योदय से पूर्व, रात्रि के अंतिम प्रहर को ब्राह्म मुहूर्त कहते हैं। पतञ्जलिकृत योगदर्शन में : प्रातिभाद्वा सर्वम् का उल्लेख है। यह प्रातिभ ब्रह्म मुहूर्त में अनायास ही विद्यमान होता है। जहाँ तक काल की गति है, उस कल्पित अतीत समय से ऋषि मुनि आदि इसी ब्राह्म मुहूर्त में निद्रा से जागते ही शौच स्नान आदि नित्य कर्मों से निवृत्त होकर अध्यात्म के अनुसंधान में प्रवृत्त हो जाया करते हैं। सूर्य के उदय तक यह क्रम संपन्न हो जाता है और सूर्योदय के पश्चात् संसार के दैनिक कर्मों का अनुष्ठान प्रारंभ हो जाता है। अपने अपने वर्णाश्रम धर्म के अनुसार ब्रह्मचर्याश्रम में स्थित छात्र आचार्यकुल की सेवा करते हुए प्राप्त हुए कर्तव्यों का अनुष्ठान करते हैं। यह उनका शिक्षाकाल होता है जिसे ब्रह्मचर्य आश्रम भी कहा समझा जाता है। जिन्होंने इस आश्रम में समुचित शिक्षा प्राप्त कर ली है, उन्हें गृहस्थ आश्रम प्राप्त हो जाता है। तब उनका कर्तव्य होता है कि प्राप्त हुए आश्रमधर्म का निर्वाह कर सुय...
Learning Sanskrit with any other Language. In this way, I learnt two languages together, -one of them the Sanskrit. Basically, the proper and the right way of learning any language what-so-ever is to learn in the same way, as one learns own mother tongue. A language is kind of conditioning. The new name for this learning is : N. L. P., The Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Learning any language what-so-ever is learning the structure of the language, how a set of phonemes is formed and how this generates a "spoken word". A spoken language is learnt by practice and effort made involuntarily without knowing how any "word" is associated with its meaning, which too is either a sense - abstract or indicating a material and tangible object known through the sensory perception. However, sensory perception is primarily without a word - non-verbal. It's only for human beings that we learn associating a word for any specific and particular object or feeling. Bu...
The Gestalt and The Algorithm. -- During the year 1986-87, with a view to discover The Sanskrit I started learning the German Language. Die Deutsche Sprache. I'm not sure if the above words words are correct -grammatically and also in spelling. But I never bother about these things. It's not my concern. What I gained through learning German was the insight that was of tremendous help in understanding the structure of a language as such. Except English and German The other two European languages like Spanish and Italian also attracted my interest but it was German that I felt the best of all. So I opted for this language. Luckily or for whatever other reasons it proved no wrong decision. On the contrary I was really very happy. My only whole and sole purpose behind it was to study the structure of German so as to find out how it might be related with Sanskrit and in what way. I missed mentioning The Greek in the earlier paragraph. Yes, Greek too might ha...
