About the Teacher
Know More about the Course
“अष्टाध्यायी जगन्माता अमरकोशो जगत्पिता” (Ashtadhyayi is the mother of the world, and Amarakosha is the father) is a popular saying. Ashtadhyayi and Amarakosha are extremely useful tools for those who wish to gain a mastery of Sanskrit language and the shastras. In olden times, it was a common practice to teach children to memorise these two texts at a very young age, even before formal learning began. Equipped with these fixed in memory, as they studied the language and shastras, the children learnt to apply the sutras easily, and had a phenomenal vocabulary.
Amarakosha is written by Amarasimha. Amarakosha is also called as Namalinganushasanam. It contains 3 kandas with 26 vargas and over 3000 lines. Amarakosha collects words with similar meanings, along with providing information about their linga, which is very important for using them in the language. Knowing the Amarakosha is a huge advantage in the study of literature and in enhancing Sanskrit vocabulary.
In this course, first kanda of Amarakosha is taught. There are 11 vargas in this kanda which are covered in this course. The vargas are Svargavarga, Vyoma, dik, kaala, dhee, vaak, shabda, naatya, patalabhogi, naraka and vaari.
There is no certificate offered currently for this course by Vyoma.
