Lesson 62. The Alphabet

v[R - ivcar>

A) Evolution of Sound.

As Sadhakas, let us introduce ourselves to the world of sounds.... zBdàp , The cause of the

world of things.... AwRàp .... is prmeZvr. In the context of sound, prmeZvr is zBdäûn! , The

entire world is said to be born of zBd ... zBdàa_av , Evolution is the result of the self

movement SpNdn of Shiva-Shakti. The line of evolution is from the subtle to the gross. There

are five stages to the emanation of sound.

1. The first is pra which is absolutely supreme and subtle. This can best be described as

the storehouse from which inspirations would first emerge.

2. The second is pZyNtI which is less subtle but is still undifferentiated. This would be the

inspiration that would eventually give rise to a thought or an idea.

3. The third is mXyma which is grosser and undifferentiated, though not articulate. This is

actual thought process which goes into concretizing the idea.... a plan of action.

4. Articulate sound is called vEorI which further takes two forms: subtle and gross. It is

from that that all the letters v[R, words pd and sentences vaKy are manifested. The

subtle forms of these letters are the mantras. The gross takes the form of the language we use.

v[R> is that form of sound which cannot be broken up further into smaller parts. It is

therefore also called A]rm! , n ]rit #it A]rm! , nad or Xvin ....sound .....can never be

destroyed. That A]rm!, when it is in a written form is called the v[R> , Over a period of time

both words have now become interchangeable.

A]r s, when put together to intelligently express thoughts and feelings is called the pd , A

group of pd s form a vaKy ; and vaKy s put together so that another may understand what one

wishes to express, then becomes language _aa;a , The Sanskrit script, is called devnagrI ,

B) v[aR>

Let's go over the list of v[aR> again. The divisions that you see below have been made by Panini

and described in his 'Ashtadhyayi.' We need to study this so that we are better able to understand how Panini worked at his grammar.

Svra>

A , #, %, \, l& (ÿSvSvra>) are pronounced in one matra ( a measure of time almost equal to

one second )

Aa , $, ^, \&, ¥ ,@ , @e, Aae, AaE (dI"RSvra>) are pronounced in two matras

A3 , #3, %3, \3, l&3, ,@3 , @e3, Aae3, AaE3 (PlutSvra>).... used when calling out to someone and

take more than two matras to be pronounced.

Ayaegvaha> so named by Panini.

A< (AnuSvar)

A> (ivsgR>) (I've spent about a trillion hours trying to find a symbol that looks like two smilies put together, one on top of the other, the top looking like a smile and the one below looking like a frown in the place of the visargas for the four alphabets listed below. Sorry. Don't have the software to create an image even. But I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what I mean. If any of you has; and can create an image, please will you send it to me at 'Queries' so that I may replace these four visargas with those? )

Your teacher will help you pronounce the Svra>, Ayaegvaha>, and the VyÃnain , I'll just supply a table that you can refer to. The beauty here is that this classification works

in various ways. It helps making and breaking sandhis, writing out words with Anunaisk s and

understanding the relationships of each "family group" ... how one letter can be substituted for

another and ideas like that…. For example, you would have often seen both tt! and td!. It also

helps us understand why Parama Poojya Swamiji pronounces ÈyMbk< yjamhe the way He does.

] is a v[R> that has been given a position of equal standing in the v[Rmala in the Vedas.

Sanskrit grammar, whether modern or classical, visualizes it as k! + ;! and you will therefore

find it in the dictionary in the k! section.

However, we have retained all the v[Ra> that are in the original v[Rmala , This has an important effect on pronunciations.

The ivsgR carries forward the sound of the letter just before it.

v[R> is pronounced v[Rh, v[Ra> is pronounced v[aRha, v[ER> is pronounced v[ERih

gué> is pronounced guéhu and so on and so forth.

When the ivsgR is followed by a k!, o!, p!, or a )!, the ivsgR is forcefully expressed. Going by

this, if the ivsgR were to be followed by ]!, which, according to grammar a k! + ;!, the ivsgR

should have been forcefully expressed. But it is not. In this case, the ivsgR does what it is

supposed to do....it carries forward the sound of the letter just before it.

14. h l!, Panini has based his entire grammatical work on these sutras. To avoid a detailed recital of the

letters, he used what is called the àTyahar . It is very much what you would see advertised in a

shop window " A-Z available here." Rather than list what he has, the shopkeeper, in his A-Z, has conveyed the fact that he stores all that you need.

Similarly, when Panini wished to list only the Svra> , he just said Ac! and no more. Look at the

sutras again. Which sutra has the A ? The first. Which sutra ends in c! ? The fourth. Ignore

every v[R with the hlNt . They are called #t! v[aR> and are only indicatory letters which

disappear the minute the purpose of indication has been fulfilled.

List all the letters that are in the four sutras and hey presto, you have a list of all the Svra> !

Let's take another example. Hz! would be all the v[R s in the 3rd and 4th column. Gottitt??

The peculiarity of the àTyahar s is that they can start from any v[R, They may begin with a v[R

coming from the middle of the group, but they must end with an #t! v[R>,

Panini then worked on 41 such àTyahar s in his A:qaXyayI. [! comes twice as an #t! v[R>,

Whenever you have to choose the first, (1) will be written against the àTyahar . Whenever you

have to choose the second, (2) will be written against that àTyahar. Shall we try work with

àTyahar s as a home assignment? Please refer to Lesson 62 A.

D) gu[ ,v&iÏ, dI"R, sMàsar[ changes.

You would have heard of suNdrm! and it's relative saEdyRm! . It is apparent that the % and AaE are

connected. What has happened here is a v&iÏ . It is often difficult to remember these terms….

gu[ ,v&iÏ, dI"R, sMàsar[, So here is a list you can refer to when foxed by sandhis. The idea is

to see the correlation amongst alphabets.

Lesson 63

VyÃn-siNx> Vyanjan Sandhi.

"Sandhi's not my cuppatea," was my refrain…. till I realized that a sandhi was exactly what I had done with both, 'Sandhi is' and a 'cup-pa-tea.' O.K…. so if it is such a common thing in speech, couldai find egzamples a plenty? Butsurely you betcha bottondollar I could! Not only in English but in every language as well. Just have a look at this…. Shuddup = Shut up. ( Vocabulary of the Younger Generation, not mine.)

An example of Hla< jzae=Nte, It's just that us Indians love to study and have therefore made a science of something as natural as sandhi. What happens is that a student who studies the science first becomes quite dizzy with all the information, so I have here tried to provide the smelling salts. It's not so bad….. I've survived and so will you. Let's tagjust one stepatatime. Is the combination of a consonant with another consonant, a vowel

To make VyÃn-siNx> easy to memorize and recall at a later date, let's go over how the

consonants are classified again.

Please note that for our grammar study, we will work with the consonants specified by Panini. Make sure that you are familiar with lesson 62. It will help you tremendously. Sandhi is a vast topic of study. Rather than do the whole lot, it seems practical to just go over a few. (To give you an idea, we categorized sandhis into 40 sections of which we plan to do just 9). The table given below gives you examples of the ones you will see most often. Use it as a guide while you are studying specific details of the sandhis given after the table on page 8 of this lesson. There are plenty of examples, especially from the Bhagavad Gita, for you to work with.

Lesson 64.

smas-ivcar> Samas Vichar.

A long long time ago, everything that needed to be passed from generation to generation was done in the form of verse. Verse was the only means of ensuring that knowledge was protected. It may have been years since we've left school, but who has forgotten 'Jack and Jill'? Prose, on the other hand, has been relegated to the back alleys of our mind. In the midst of all this poetic creativity, a natural problem reared its head. Sanskrit is the

only language in the classical world which makes use of àTyys. The use of àTyys helps every

single word to have an identity and a meaning of its very own. But fitting the word + àTyy into

a metre in verse form was a difficult task indeed. "What to do?" asked a poet. "No problem!

Let's create a shortcut," said another. And smas came into being. smas, s m s was the

original SMS… Short Message Service. Be proud guys, we created it!!!!!!

I kid you not. There does exist such a verb: Ah< smSyaim does indeed mean 'I am creating a

synopsis…. or in our layman terms… a shortcut.'

smas allows a person to string two words together to form one single word. And "ishortcut

ishtyle" the first word is written without an appropriate àTyy. For example instead of saying à

ra}> puÇ> I'd say rajpuÇ> and still make complete sense.

Why does Devdas have to romance his love with a long drawn out, "You have such a beautiful

face just like the moon!" All he'd do is say "Aiy cNÔmuio" Devdas too, by the way, is a smas

word. devSy das> , devdas> , The difference between a siNx> and a smas> would be that in the

former, two letters combine to form a single whole letter or a conjoined letter( either in the middle of a word or between two words to form a single word) and in the latter, two words are

placed side by side (without the need for a siNx> to take place) to form a single word.

420/442

In a smas: , the smStpd is the compound word… devdas> , iv¢h is when you break it up into

its components….. devSy das> , Naturally, it is with time that you will figure out in which combinations these work out, for

example dasdev> would not be correct. And it is with time that you will figure out which words

can be made a smas of. For example, vnàaPt> is allowed and NOT vnàaPtvan! , Not to worry.

In this case at least …Time will wait for the Sanskrit enthusiast!

Note: This lesson is to help you figure out what smas words mean whenever you come across them in

your course of reading. You also now have the wherewithal to form your own combination words intelligently. Another thing to remember is that people are all made differently. Many a time you will find

that someone may have formed a smas in one way and you may prefer another. Both may be

correct. So just relax and enjoy learning something new.

smas can be divided into 6 classes according to the sense that they convey when dissolved.

ÖNÖae iÖgurip cah< md!gehe inTymVyyI_aav> ,

tTpué; kmRxary yenah< Sya< bhuìIih> . For our convenience, I have divided them into 9 groups. I have been better able to retain the information with a wider classification like that.

1. AVyyI_aav> A word which conveys a meaning, is a part of the smas which, after the

combination of the two words, becomes an AVyy , For example:

add su to indicate saE_aaGy 'lots of goodness.' sum¼lm! = m¼lana< sm&iÏ> lots of

auspiciousness.

421/442

2. tTpué;> In this smas, the second word of the smas is given importance. For example:

devdas> = devSy das> , The first part of the word is simply an apt description of the

second. We are talking about the das> here and not the dev> ,

3. kmRxary> In this smas, one word is an adjective of the other. It is a part of the tTpué;>,

but we shall list it separately for convenience's sake. For example: nIlaeTplm! = nIlm!

%Tplm! ,

4. iÖgu> In this smas, which is a part of the kmRxary>, the first word is a number; how

many in a collection of things. For example : pÂvqI = pÂana< vqana< smahar> ,

5. ÖNÖ> Be sure to look out for the c between words in the iv¢h> of this smas> !!! For

example: hirhrgurv> / hirguéhra> = hirí hrí guéí ,

6. bhuìIih> When two words are put together to imply something totally different, bhuìIih>

is what you see. For example: cNÔmaEil> = cNÔ> maElaE ySy s>, Here, we are neither

giving importance to the moon or to the forehead but the Person who is adorned so: Shiva.

7. Aluk!smas> is not really a different smas> , Whenever, two words are put together

and the iv_aiKt of the first word remains intact, then smas> takes place. Depending

on the smas> itself, it can be any of the above smas> s. For example: yuixi:Qr> = yuix

iSwr> ,

422/442

8. n|!smas> is not really a different smas> , Whenever you wish to convey 'the

absence' of something, this smas> is used. For example: Aiv¹> = n iv¹> ,

9. %ppdsmas> see how the noun is described here.. A_ay»r> = A_ay< kraeit #it ,

smas> is a vast topic. Sorry, I made a mistake, a VAST TOPIC. We need to be practical

about such things. We can't handle it all at this stage. Let's go over a few details to help us decode what we may most often come across. A tabular column will help.

1. AVyyI_aavsmas> ,

You will recognize the AVyyI_aavsmas> in words

1. Where the first part of the word is an AVyy or a inpat ( inpata> are particles which

possess no gender and number and the case termination after which is dropped or

elided. For example cady> (c and others) and àady> (à and others)

2. The second part of the word is a noun (sÁ}a ).

3. The combined word is an AVyy and is npu<. @kvcnm! ,

4. The combined word smStpdm! is different from the iv¢h> , because the conveys a AVyy special meaning to the noun.

Addition of AVyy to

3. kmRxarysmas> ,

This one is really simple. Whenever two words, one which is an adjective of the other, are combined, you have a kmRxarysmas> , So you will have a combination of a ivze;[ and a ivze:y, an %pman and an %pmey , Since one is a ivze;[ of the other, naturally, when a iv¢h> is formed, both the words will be in the same iv_aiKt> ,

You may see the words c AsaE, #v, @v, in the iv¢h> to reinforce the relationship between the two words. su meaning "beautiful/ good" and ku (kuiTst) meaning "bad" are added to words to form a kmRxarysmas> ,

Note: Why has this particular smas> been called kmRxary ? Simple. Let's look at an example… nIlaeTplm! , %Tpl< nIlv[R< xaryit , nIl< becomes the object in the sentence. Similarly, guuédev> , guué> devSy pd< xaryit , Alternatively it could be: dev> gurae> ép< xaryit , If you look at the examples in the tabular column, you'll begin to see how one of the words "becomes" the object of the other. Even if that may not be an authentic explanation, why must we reject it if it helps us remember what the kmRxarysmas> is?!!

5. ÖNÖsmas> ,

Just take a look at the examples. Easy.

Between every word, be sure to add the c . A compound of two words will be dual and a

compound of more than two will be in the plural. A point to be noted is that words beginning

with a vowel and words ending in AkaraNt should come first.

6. bhuìIih>

Read our simple explanation again of this particular smas> (given at the beginning of the

lesson) then let's move on. You'll find either both the words of the iv¢h> in the same iv_aiKt>

or they may be in different iv_aiKt>s. Since we are talking about someone else altogether, you need to describe the compound by

adding a y< s>, yen s>, ySya> sa and the like.

In other cases you'll see compounds formed by a combination of sh with the t&tIya iv_aiKt> , Note:

The word bhuìIih> itself means "a person who has plenty of rice". In other words, a wealthy

man. A long time ago, parents would give their daughter in marriage to Mr. bhuìIih>, who would

have the capacity to look after their child well. It won't be difficult now to connect this word

to what the smas> implies.
