As of now, Rajiv ji is one of the very few intellectually honest people
As a Nation India should be grateful to this gentleman. In fact Indian Government should sponsor his efforts.
Why does he stays abroad
More effective, all else remaining equal.@@Johnny-pi1vk
Rajiv Malhotra Sir, am about 77 yrs of age and though am very firm on my convictions and you seem to be much younger to me but I salute you, your missionary zeal and the topic of your choice which is relevant to the entire humanity in general and to us in particular. The dedication,devotion and the determination with which you are rendering your humble and the selfless service is divine and therefore is very likely in my opinion to go far and wide with the passage of time.May you receive more and more of the divine Grace,May our Lord Rama's blessings guide your path.
Very true Sirji 👍
It is a pity that the mainstream Indian academia has studiedly kept away from coopting Rajiv Malhotra. They are chicken in the most classical sense of the term. There is hardly any courage left in the system.
Yeah!
ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR is the father of all souls that JESUS, MOHAMMAD, GURU NANAK, VEDH was telling in BIBLE, QURAN, GURU GRANTHA SAHEB❤
Iyov 36:5 - Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)
See, El is Kabir, and despiseth, not any; He is Kabir in ko’ach lev (strength of understanding).
Translation: Supreme God is Kabir, but despises no one. He is Kabir, and firm in his purpose.
In all Bible translations, the word Kabir has been translated as "Mighty" or "Great" whereas Kabir is the original name of Supreme God.
Conclusion: This verse of the Bible proves that Kabir is Complete God. The one who worships God Kabir by taking initiation from the complete saint sent by him gets complete salvation. After attaining salvation that souls rest in peace in the eternal abode Satlok forever. The throne of God is in Satlok( ETERNAL PLACE) 😊😊
God Kabir met Jesus and took his soul to Satlok.❤
KAAVEER in HINDU VEDA
Mantra Sankhya 1400 Samveda Utarchik Adhyay no.12 Khand no. 3 Shloka no. 5 says that the Supreme God Kabir manifests on Earth to spread awareness about the correct spiritual knowledge by means of His Shabdavali:
“Bhadra vastra samanya3vasaano mahaan kavirnivachnani shansan ||
Aa vachyasv chamvoH pooymaano vichakshano jaagrvirdevveetau|| 5||
Bhadra - vastra - samanya - vasaanH - mahaan - Kavir - nivachnani - shansan - aavachyasv - chamvoH - pooymaanH - vichakshanH - jagrviH - Dev - veetau||
Translation: (VichakshanH) Clever people (aavachyasv) through their speeches, instead of telling the true path of the way of worship of Purna Brahm, by directing towards the worship of others, in place of nectar, (pooymaanH) pus from a boil in the form of the worship of others [like, ghost-worship, Pitra-worship, worship of the three gunas {Rajgun-Brahma, Satgun-Vishnu, Tamgun-Shankar} and worship of Brahm-Kaal] (chamvoH) are respectfully making sip the wrong knowledge (bhadra) the supremehappiness-giving (mahaan Kavir ) Supreme God Kabir (vastra) in a body in an ordinary attire i.e. {the meaning of 'vastra' is 'attire' - in saint language, it is also called 'chola'. Chola means body. Like, if a saint leaves his body, then it is said that Mahatma has left his chola}, (samanya) acquiring another body made up of mass of lights [tejpunj] similar to that of Satyalok (vasaanH) by spending life like a common man and living in the world for a few days (nivachnani) by means of his Shabdavali1 , the true knowledge (shansan ) by explaining (Dev) of the Supreme God (veetau) hidden Sargun-Nirgun knowledge (jagrviH) awakens/brings awareness about.❤
Indians sold their votes and directly the seat of power to a Mughal Nehru family , far from being a Muslim family, had a agenda to wipe out Indian civilisation and culturally annex its territory to midleeast.
Fortunately wisdom came in 2014 when Modi came to power and most of his time spent in cleaning the junk and dirt left by legacy of Nehru a British agent
Through his research Mr.Rajiv is making we Indians aware of his glorious past and expediately erosion by foreign missionaries and their hired goons
Academia hates those who ruffle the feathers. Rajiv ruffles, waves, shouts and dances. And, its glorious. Academia is about comfort, not going against the grain. SADLY
You are doing a great job.Thanks
Shri Rajiv Malhotraji ...Truly A Ratna of Bharath
Highly recommend the 15-min videos for the 54 sanskrit nontranslatables, its explained succinctly and it registered very well in my memory after watching those. Please watch and share them. We all need to start using these words. I already use prana, atman, guru, etc. in my speech even with my non-Indian friends and able to explain the metaphysics behind them a few times. Great work by both the authors.
Can you please let me know the link for these 54 videos?
But what is the point in using nontranslatables if people cannot be made understood in their own language. Agree they may not have a single word but shouldn't we make people understand what the Sanskrit word means? No issue if we use Sanskrit words but for a person who doesn't know what it is it still doesn't make any sense.
@@chandrandec31 Correct, it may seem simple to use soul instead of atma. but the point is if you start using the sanskrit word, that would spur a new conversation and you can elaborate the deeper meaning and the metaphysics behind it and often the translations are rooted in a different metaphysics (so there is no equivalent of brahman and its relation to atma or the fact that do animals have souls whereas we say animals also have atman).
Its fine for simple words like objects (surya/sun) but not for concepts. That's my understanding.
@@shyama5612 I suggest we use the Sanskrit terms even for grahas. Of course, in the proper context, i.e., while describing the lunar eclipse, Chandra and Moon are the same, but not in Jyotisha. You can look up the videos of Pt. Sanjay Rath ji on the non-translability of Jyotisha terms For example - Chandra is not the moon.
Reding rajiv malhotra sir is just eye opener …..on caste …on Sanskrit and about our own culture….just required to tell all these for whom we can do…..
Literally he has done a fantastic job
Pleasure to hear Rajiv ji
Jai shree Ram
If not translatable, how do the pundits tell meanings. ?
That means they are misleading by misinterpretations. !
You are a visionary sir ,I deeply connect with your vision to teach Sanskrit to the masses in the right waya ❤❤❤
*_This is a wonderful book. I have the hard cover. The cover art is also very very._*
Very important and informative.
Shat shat naman, Dear Rajivji ! Great great work, this book about Sanskrit, we are very proud ! We all have to learn Sanskrit to know our culture, our philosophy !
Just before 2 days, Sir, I have subscribed for "Sanskrit Pratibha".
It is telepathy that today only You are before me with your extraordinary speech.Thanking you, Dr. Niranjana Joshi.
This booked is out of world
Pushed me to learn sanskrit
Great work Rajiv ji 🙏
So happy to see resurgence. Lets go youth, its our responsibility now !! Jayyhindd !!
Hi Rajiv, I've enjoyed your book (kindle version). Thank you very much. Might I suggest you consider adding pāpa or paap, often translated as sin, to your list of non-translatables? All the best, David
The word "paapa" as I understand is demerit and against it is "punya" = equivalent is merit. referred more under svadharma ...aspects of Karma etc.
I read somewhere online that paapa is more something that does harm to oneself. Quiet different from the Christian idea of sin? @@brindaramkrishnan9683
Rajeev sir great work. I am huge fan of you. Please advise how I can connect with your foundation
Really very good information. Just ordered [ The Battle for IITs] book from amazon.
प्रणाम आचार्य जी
I believe C.G. Jung had a similar struggle as T.S. Elliot with Hinduism. He kept away from Hindu Gurus such as Ramana Maharishi for this reason. He thought it was too early to introduce their ideas into Europe.
Sir . One idea . Through Crowd Funding arrange to start ONE Vedic Schools in every State in India under Gurukula System on a self sustaining basis . . Not impossible for a person of your stature . Thanks Sir . Jai Hind !
திருமந்திரம் says Tamil & Sanskrit is given to those who wants to reach முக்தி.
The songs as follows . 65. மாரியும் கோடையும் வார்பனி தூங்கநின்று ஏரியும் நின்றங்கு இளைக்கின்ற காலத்து ஆரிய முந்தமி ழும்உட னேசொலிக் காரிகை யார்க்குக் கருணைசெய் தானே. 66. அவிழ்கின்ற வாறும் அதுகட்டு மாறும் சிமிட்டலைப் பட்டுயிர் போகின்ற வாறும் தமிழ்ச்சொல் வடசொல் எனும்இவ் விரண்டும் உணர்த்தும் அவனை உணரலு மாமே..
I have explained in தமிழ் விடியோ in my YT
The gurus of abstraction and distractions, truly a BISWAGURU!!!!
Great presentation , sir.
Cannot agree more..I chant set of mantras on regular basis.. I certainly feel the vibrations and extraordinary experiences..
❤❤
Rajiv Ji has triggered a sort of renaissance 🙏🙏
Pranam guruji
Rajiv Sir ,have been missing you on medias for quit sometime, now Sanskrit on Haward platform delighted.
Examples of Sanskritization :
Negotiate निगच्छति ,
Areopagitika आर्योपगीतिका
Thanks Rajivji . Proud to know about your efforts . I will read the book .
Even Japanese language has similar situation . Certain words are used as they are and not translated by foreign authors , e.g. IKIGAI , KAIZEN , GAMAN , OUBAITORY, KENSHO , SATORI etc
Sanskrit is a very rich language , the most scientific and mathematical language , in which Vedas, Upanishads , Bhagvad Geeta and other scriptures are written
We should , in fact be proud , and not hesitate to popularise and use certain words as they are in Sanskrit and not try to translate and loose its real meaning and the impact .
Regards - Dipak Ashar
Amazing!
every problem, fault, tension,...is for, no problem, no fault, no tension,... working style every where, for ever...
जय श्री राम, राजीव जी।
❤❤🙏🙏
It will be nice if Infinity is in Tamil also
.
VERY VERY GOOD !
The love for the Bharati culture &sanatana Dharma dragged Rajiv Ji to give up his flourishing business,& to come to the rescue of gullible educated Indians.He is an incarnation of some great Rishi.

REVERBERATIONS, therefore mantras
Dear Sir,
I know little to nothing about language, and about Sanskrit. So, even though, I should not be opening my mouth here I am daring to say a few things. First, Sir, your way of saying, "Sanskritizing English" could come across as changing English pronunciation and grammar. That could be threatening the average English speaker. Why not say "inclusion of pure Sanskrit in English". English is a powerful language and is incorporating words in their pure form many languages all the time. I think that is what you are proposing also. And I for one am thankful that you produced a book on these translations, because it is very hard to explain. We will all benefit from this. My regards and I will definitely read your book.

If merely chanting Sanskrit mantra without knowing meaning affects so much, so many people chant it everyday , at so many events, like wedding, house-warming. Still why misery remains?
I have this book and have referenced in my podcasts. Its a must read for anyone.
मेँरे अपने हिसाब से संस्कृत भाषा बनाई हुई भाषा है। हमिरे ऋषि इतने शक्तिशाली थे की उन्होँने भारतवर्ष के कई कई भाषाओँ जैसे उत्तर , पूर्व , दक्षिण तथा पश्चिम के भाषाओँ के
मूल तत्व को लेकर यह नई भाषा मेँरे खयाल मेँ बनाई थी। यह भाषा इतनी प्रशंसनीय थी कि बीच की भाषाओँ की कोई आवश्यकता नहीँ रही। अतः कशमीर का राजा पुराने समय मेँ जो आदेश देता था वह केरल के अथवा बाली, चम्पा, सियाम आदि के लोग जो संस्कृत जानते थे वह सब समझ जाते थे। अतः इसको देवभाषा कहते हैँ। इसमेँ उपभाषा आदि नहीँ हैँ।
एक शंकराचार्य ने इसकी गणितीय गणना के बारे मेँ बताया है। Vedic Mathematics के ऊपर इनहोँने एक पुस्तक की रचना की है। उन्होंने आठ पुस्तकोँ की रचना की थी परन्तु वो सब खो गईँ। उन्होनेँ कहा था कि वह किताबेँ उनको याद हैँ। उनहोँने एक पुस्तक पुनः लिखी थी फिर वो प्रभु के हो गये।

Mere like ne sir ji ka 1kbpoora kar diya . I am feeling proud now.
We should we able to explain any sanskrit word in any language, if not in one word at least by using a sentence or two. Otherwise, it will still be gibberish to those who don't know what the meaning of the sanskrit word is.
It is true that any word in any language can be explained using many words, sentences , or paragraphs into another language. But that is not efficient, and so, the temptation is to always use one word when translating. So, the richness of meaning is lost. Besides, the word in the target language has its own history and connotations, and multiple meanings, which the word in the original meaning will not share, many times.
So, the scope for mistranslation/misunderstanding is HUGE. Therefore, in the case of at least the special and important/significant words that have very rich meanings, it is better to use the word in the original. One can write an appendix with pages of explanation for the words in question, but use the original word as is when translating.

👍
Prof Kak is saying that the meaning of even 'Aakash' is wrongly translated as 'space'. 🙂
What is substitute for kaivalya
🙏🙏
What cannot be expressed is meaningless. Therefore what cannot be translated may also be meaningless 😇
Rajivji snakes in the ganga outside as well as inside of bharat are doing their level best to cancel bharat and its rich unique civilisations and their sanatan dharma but try as these snakes in the ganga do they can never succeed because sanatan dharma has no beginning it has no end simply put it is eternal.
Jai SHREE RAM
If anyone is interested, find my Ramayana narrations and pronunciation vds. Thank you. Mine is a small contribution in the Yajna.

It is Samskrutam! Just because Max Muller's tongue could only mutter 'sanskrit' while he was strategising to loot and cart away it's heritage, shouldn't make us to continue to use this disfigured meaningless term to refer to our precious classical language.
Why is Sanskrit rejected by
Brahmins?
Non profitable??
Many Brahmins study only that which can give them a job that can sustain their livelihood. Centuries ago they were supported by the community, royalty, rich landowners etc, who saw the value . Now, the supporting community is almost no more. So Brahmins have no choice, except for a small group of dedicated individuals who remain poor but stick to tradition, and some Brahmins who, after earning enough, try to learn their traditions again.
Not interested in teaching the public in the olden days to keep their supremacy. That is the reason it is restricted to a particular community. Mainly because of Manu dharma. Very selfish people.
@@kumarblore2003 nothing of the sort. It was available to all. Many non-Brahmins also learnt it. Do some research. Manu smriti was an unknown text, pretty much. Only the Christian missionaries made it famous by using some verses from it as a means to demean Hinduism. Even today, anybody and everybody from all over the world can learn Sanskrit. But how many are interested? The moment it can’t be used as “social injustice by evil Brahmins”- because that narrative falls flat on its face, all people who were so interested in learning samskrtam mysteriously disappear.
Sir, sm more feed by me. The word sanskar there is no equivalent in any other culture. 2nd is vivek. U can say righteous or rational but actually it’s not, u require to explain, define the word vivek, similarly sanskar; 1 can say upbringing, nurturing etc, but they r not close to real meaning, I can many more, this was just a glimpse.
This is so contradictory to what he says about the Tibetan translations he sponsored.
Sadhana=pursuance ⁉️
HH Wilson of Boden's Chair at Oxford University, assumed himself to a legitimate Sanskrit scholar during early 1800s. Weber's Sanskrit Encyclopaedia, is full of horrible errors, Max Müller too claimed to be a scholar...there are dozens more.
They were too much Christianized to accept any other philosophy and, Sanskrit literature was like a deadly poison to them. All of them, including few Americans did everything to distort, disfigure and demonise Sanskrit. They all still do.
Sir please don't pronounce it as मन्त्रा,its मन्त्र ।
तंत्र मंत्र सब झूठ है, मत भरमाओ कोय, सार शब्द जाने बिना, कागा हंस न होय ..... कबीर दास
Same word can be pronounced in multiple ways example Sahana can be pronounced in 6 ways.Meaning depends on pronounciation. No language can match samskrith. Capital of this now is girinagar, bangalore.
