Know More about the Course
Sharada script is a writing system based on Brahmic family of scripts and was well flourished in Northern India especially Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Punjab in 13th century AD. Sharada texts have been widely found in Afghanistan; The Sharada inscriptions all seem to date to the 8th century CE.
Even now the scripts which are well known like Gurumukhi, Takri are derived from Sharada script.
It is believed that there is a good haul of Sharada manuscripts in several places in the country like Nalanda, Hoshiarpur, Madurai, Chennai and Mysore, and in Nepal. There are thousands of manuscripts in various Libraries in India written in Sharada . The Lipi was the mother Lipi in native Kashmir. The efforts to revive Sharada Lipi will open an ocean of the Knowledge to the whole world, bringing to light information hidden in the manuscripts.
First batch of the highly popular and well-received Learn Sharada Lipi course was held in April 2020, where close to 300 participants learnt the Sharada script and earned their certificates. They are now part of an active group which is working on manuscripts and transliterations to and from Sharada lipi.
Second batch (weekend batch) has been completed in October 2020 and the students have excelled in the script and are willing to contribute to the projects that the Sharada team has to accomplish.
In response to repeated requests from students who missed the first and second opportunities, the Core Sharada Team along with Vyoma Labs presents this new third batch to teach Sharada script.

I am very satisfied by learning the beautiful Sharada script which now allows me to unravel the manuscripts in sharada. I feel empowered with this knowledge. The passion of the Core Sharada team to revive this script is very genuine and commendable. I really liked their teaching methods and I feel I can learn other scripts in similar fashion. I am definitely inspired by their industrious work and am glad to be a part of their vision. I will definitely spread sharada script within my circle of friends and relatives.
