'If one would try to water the leaves the tree would not get nourishment. One should try to water the root. So one should first properly understand the beautiful structure of the Saṁskṛta language and it will help the mind to come closer to understanding.' His Holiness Śrī Śāntānanda Sarasvatī

ABOUT THE EVENT

SchoolOfPracticalPhilosophy_Auckland_Week_2020_701x436

 

Each year a residential Sanskrit week is held during the Australasian summer. Philosophy students from New Zealand and Australia are able to spend time in the company of like-minded people studying this most powerful and ancient language. The week caters for beginners as well as for those with greater experience of Sanskrit.

The Sanskrit Residential Week offers an ideal opportunity for quiet study, meditation, chanting, discussion, studying the grammar of Pāṇini, electives and simple kitchen and house-keeping service. The main focus for this week will be a passage from one of the Upaniṣads.

This year in Auckland we are privileged to be guided by Mr. Warwick Jessup, Head of Sanskrit in the School of Philosophy and Economic Science based in London.
