Beginning in March 2025, Peter brings to Garnet Heart Wellness an introduction to the classical Sanskrit language. It includes developing familiarization with the Sanskrit alpha-syllabary and devanagari script, mastering the conventions of euphonic coalescence (sandhi), and learning the basics of Sanskrit grammar. In addition, we will begin reading stories and texts from the classical Indian tradition, particularly selections from the Mahābhārata/Bhagavadgītā and the Rāmāyaṇa. We will also explore the spiritual aspects of the Sanskrit language with regards to Linguistic Mysticism, how the phonemes of Sanskrit correspond and encapsulate broader patterns of reality.
