Nope Sanksrit evolved from Magadhi Prakrit and it was developed from Prakrit language by Buddhist scholars at Nalanda and Brahmins wanted the credit because whatever Hinduism says there are not a single archaeological proofs that Vedas and devnagari in which their scriptures written were before Buddha even before Buddha and imaginary Veda period of which not a single archaeological proofs is there that it existed before Buddha's era The Indus valley civilisation was there and they also used to write and they had their own script so even Indus valley people had their own script that's very similar to Dhammalipi so from where the Hinduism came it only came in India by stealing ideas knowledge and preventing it as per their own convenience by killing Buddhist scholars they are stealers and killers nothing else whatever they say there is not a single archaeological proof !
@@PiyaChoudhari Your claim isn't valid academically. During Indus Valley, there was no Prakrit & they spoke a completely different language. And for Rig-Vedic Sanskrit (not Classical), it is traced as back as 4,000-3,000 years old or 1,500 to 2,000 BCE. For the seals found in IVC are undeciphered, they don't have a match to Brahmi. Adding to it, Buddhism can only be traced back to only 600 BCE, if biased.
It's amazing how much wrong information is in this video and the comments below are even more foolish. What language did Nagarjuna and Vasubandhu write in? Sanskrit. They are both great Buddhist scholars. Sanskrit is not ONLY the language of Hinduism.
Sanskrit is believed to have developed from the Prakrit languages, which were popular vernacular languages spoken in ancient India. The development of Sanskrit from Prakrit occurred over a long period, spanning several centuries. Prakrit languages were used in everyday communication, and they had various regional variations. They were used in different forms of literature, including Buddhist and Jain texts. As the need arose to standardize the language, scholars began to refine the grammar, syntax, and vocabulary of the Prakrit languages. Over time, these refined versions of Prakrit evolved into the language that we know as Sanskrit. The

@@sampadization I don’t know where that shloka you quoted from but all Prakrit grammarians said Prakrit languages languages came from Sanskrit . Prakrit isnot a single language but they are a group of languages . These are excerpts from wikipidea of Prakrit languages. “The dictionary of Monier Monier-Williams (1819-1899), and other modern authors interpret the word as follows: "the most frequent meanings of the term prakṛta, from which the word "prakrit" is derived, are "original, natural, normal" and the term is derived from prakṛti, "making or placing before or at first, the original or natural form or condition of anything, original or primary substance". However, almost all the native prākrit grammarians identify prākṛta to be named so because they originate in the source language (prakṛti) which is Vedic Sanskrit. Thus the name prākṛta indicates that they depend on Sanskrit for their origin and are not themselves the prakṛti (or originary languages, originating independent of sanskrit): According to the Prākrṭa Prakāśa, an ancient Prakrit grammar, "Saṃskṛtam is the prakṛti (source) - and the language that originates in, or comes from, that prakṛti, is therefore called prākṛtam." Hemacandra (a Jain grammarian of the 10th century who lived in Gujarat) in his grammar of Sanskrit and Prākrit named Siddha-Hema-Śabdanuśāsana, defines prākṛt's origin to be sanskṛt: "prakṛtiḥ saṃskṛtam, tatrabhavaṃ tata āgataṃ vā prākṛtaṃ" [6][7][Sanskrit is the prakṛti (source) - and Prākṛta is so called because it either 'originates in' or 'comes from' Sanskrit.] Another prākṛt grammarian, Mārkaṇḍeya, writes in his grammar Prākṛtasarvasva - "prakṛtiḥ saṃskṛtaṃ, tatrabhavaṃ prākṛtam ucyate" [Sanskrit is called the prakṛti (origin), and from there prākṛtam originates].[7] “ Sanskrit used many scripts such as Brahmi, Gupta Brahmi , kharoshti , sharada etc scripts before Devanagari script . Brahmi has all the letters but Prakrit languages don’t have all letters .
The Buddha spoke English, French, Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, etc and he also didn't speak any languages. He used languages to teach his students from different countries in India during his lifetime. After he's gone, he's continued to teach students from other countries (India, Sri Lanka, China, Myanmar, Vietnam, Japan, etc), we Buddhists can listen to his speech through the Buddhist scriptures that were translated into English, French, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, etc. So my Buddhist friends, please remember that Buddhism is the teachings of our teacher - Buddha, Buddhism and Buddha neither demand Buddhists to consider Buddhism as the best/better/superior to others nor demand Buddhists to worship Buddha as a God. Through teachings, the Buddha showed his students how to find peace in their souls. Among his teachings, none of them demand Buddhists quarrel with other people because of something like "the language Buddha spoke", "Sanskrit is superior to Pali", "Buddhism is the best", etc. DHAMMAPADA - YAMAKA VAGGA Pare ca na vijānanti mayamettha yamāmase Ye ca tattha vijānanti tato sammanti medhagā.

Sanskrit is actually language of Hinduism not buddhism. Sanskrit language is older than buddhism and also Hinduism is older than buddhism. All ancient hindu scriptures like vedas, bhagwat gita, upnishad, ramayana, Mahabharata, ayurveda, patanjali and kamasutra are written in sankrit. We Hindus have thousand of ancient mantras and all of them are in sanskrit. Buddhist scriptures are written in pali(which also has it's origin in sanskrit) not sanskrit.
@@saugamathazine1959 there is lots of sources about how Sanskrit is developed from prakrit but there is a propaganda to visualise Sanskrit as oldest language
Greetings, you might want to make a note, sanskrit only came into force during gupta period. Before that many languages were spoken, and 2000yrs ago india was not one country. Pali was favorite language of Buddha. Sanskrit was a dravidian language, and there were over 180 types of dravidian language. (Term prakrit means that). Furthermore there probably were never anyone named panini, as are many hindoo so called scholars. Sanskrit was spoken only by the Dravidians (in this dravidian stock that resided in north were the Kushittes) they were local tribes known as nagas and munda. Some were also buddist and some tribes were shaivites. It was Chandra gupta mauriya who was first king and he did what the romans did.,get rid of paganism and convert everyone under one religion. He put bramins and introduced class system, and even adopted Buddha's teachings in hindoo scriptures. Sanskrit now became a language only for bramins and boys. Buddist monks *refined* sanskrit and a secret script was used to write sanskrit on orders of guptas. So basically sanskrit was not a.gods language, but spoken by dravidians. If you research further you find Buddha was of dravidian and Tibetan origin. Not vedic or hindoo. He actually has locs on his head not snails. Even his ears has wide droopy ear holes ,just like dravidian features . Nalanda university was a Buddhist center and many Ayurveda and astrology, astronomy etc.was studied there. Who burnt it??? Thats why most scriptures cannot be translated because it was stolen. Prakrit or sanskrit never came from outside it was local language of tamil and dravidians. I hope you take the time to actually research who lived before 2.500yrs ago in north india. You will get your answers. Thanks.
you are one in the series of big fool scholers. because sanskrit is a language redefined and with some changed meanings from natural language like many prakrat and paali . which are natural languages of indians. then why and how can you put period of sanskrit before the paali and prakrit without any archeological evidence or any other evidence. just use a little bit of your own brain and dont take those scholers as granted. as buddha himself said many times about be away from blind faith and use of your own brain.
Sanskirt can be written devnagre .it developed in 9th century therefore all book of sanskirt were written after 9th century in sanskirt and and planted in older period.
( Pls study history without being driven by extremist ideas!) Learn to differentiate between Language and Script... Sanskrit dont have any Own script.... There are prove of Sanskrit written in Stone Inscription of Gupta Period ( 3rd to 6th Century AD) and even Shunga Period (3rd to 2nd Century BCE) ... In Stone inscription which is in Brahmi Lipi/Script... Brahmi used to be used for Three Languages Sanskrit, Pali and Prakrit .. Brahmi , Kharoshti, Nagari, Pallavi Grantha Lipi, Nandi Nagari, Purvi Nagari ( Bengali and Assamese) , Siddha Matrika Script, etc.... Sanskrit is even written in Thai and Balinese script... Almost all Script that was Born from Brahmi Script has been Used for writing sanskrit ... In Cambodia.. Funnan Empire ( 1st Century AD) has a prove of Sanskrit Inscription too. Which is the story how Queen Soma of South East Asia was Married to a Brahmin named Kaudinya from Kalinga( odisha, India) and established the Funnan Empire. Dont Forget Kautilya wrote Arthashastra in Sanskrit! .
@@joysuryasaha7287 If we approach things scientifically, the Vedic Sanskrit is a myth. PIE came to this land around 1500 BC? or after the IVC. These Baltic languages got mixed with Tamil and created Pali, Magathi etc., which was spoken during the great saint Buddha and then Emperor Ashoka. We have an inscription proof of Tamil from 400 BC with unique Tamil alphabets and phonetic like ‘Nedunchezhiyan’ but even today these word can not be pronounced correctly in Sanskrit or English ( not an issue as uniqueness of language)and Ashoka’s inscriptions borrowed 75% of the scripts from the old Tamil in order to adopt by then-new language Pali’s dialects ( Tamil + Lithuanian)

BTW, do you know The oldest grammar form of Tamil itself has Sanskrit Name and first chairman of Sangam, Agastya too has a Sanskrit name? Even if I take this argument that 90% of Sanskrit words have Tamil origin then will you pl enlighten how despite being non Indian Sanskrit did had such origin for max words. Where the Tamils of those days sending packets of words to Europe with Pegion?
@@jaganr77 Vedic Sanskrit is first attested around 1400 BCE, this is confirmed by contemporaneous Mittani Aryan. The earliest Tamil literature is from only 300 BCE. On the other hand, Hittite is attested as early as 1700 BCE, and Mycenaean Greek as early as Vedic Sanskrit. Tamil doesn't even begin to compare in terms of the date of earliest attestation.
@@jaganr77 Pali being made out of Tamil. That's a good joke. Thanks. Had a good laugh. :))) Sanskrit is indeed older than Tamil. Infact a newer layer of Rigvedic Sanskrit is attested in archeological inscriptions in Iraq-Syria region from 18th century BCE when the original Sanskrit speaker migrated out of Indus region post the decline of urban phase of Indus Civilization These Sanskrit speaker went onto establish kingdoms in Iraq-Syria region. They were known as Kassites who ruled Babylonia from 1750 BCE and Mitanni who rules Syrian region from 1510BCE. Older layer of Rigvedic Sanskrit can be attested in India 3th millennium BCE using hydrology evidence of Saraswati river systems (Chatterjee et al 2019) & archeological evidence from Indus Civilisation that shows cultural/religious presence via Fire Altars, Yoga Figurines etc.
India was never Buddhist country 🙃 just Buddha and Mahavira all were born here doesn't make all population Buddhists. Kings may have been Buddhists or Jains or even Shudra Caste but majority population followed vedic Hinduism from Vedic time.
@@Shivam-tn9xe India was not Vedic or hindu at any part of history. It was folk religious most of times later bhakti movement incorporated local animism.

Have you not go through proper study because you told that Sanskrit was older than Pali Prakrit but we didn’t fine any rock inscription written in Sanskrit before CE.
Perfectly explained thank you so much because we are now Hindu dominated our educational system do not talk about these religion and languages in detail
'Prakrit' means natural or vernacular, and is the name given to a _group_ of languages that were spoken by common people in ancient northern India. It is not a single language, but a group of related languages. Pali, Magadhi, Shauraseni etc are all classified as Prakrit languages. Hindi emerged out of Shauraseni Prakrit.
@@dustudent1637 No. It did not. Hindi evolved from one of the Prakrits - Shauraseni prakrit. Prakrits like Shauraseni, Magadhi etc were the vernacular (spoken) languages in ancient India as Sanskrit was primarily used for liturgy and literature.
@@dustudent1637 Yes. If by "Hindi" you mean the spoken Hindustani and not the artificial Sanskritised variant which you get to hear only in DD News, Puranic TV shows and Railway station announcements. Nobody uses such complex words in daily speech, do they?
Hello and thanks very much. Can you provide your name, background, and specific academic sources ? As you can read, there are many (uninformed) opinions expressed in these comments. Your "further reading" suggestions are great - but naming your sources precisely will help to support your ideas, which are consistent with my own US university studies.
Hi Paul, thanks for the feedback. I have actually deliberately reduced the quantity of citations, thinking that it is a video not an essay. But in fact, even in an essay, I typically don't cite the 'common knowledge' (which, well, I define as that which you can find on wikipedia), but whenever there are some unique insights, I have tried to cite them.
Buddism is older than hinduism or sanskrit. Sanskrit is derived from dravidian and tamil language. Lord Buddha was not an avatar of any god. He was an enlightened soul by his own right.😊
Hinduism already existed before Buddha. He was not satisfied by that. So he found a different path to attain enlightenment. His was an easier path. So many people including kings followed him. Failure of Buddhism lies in that it had no answer to rampant violence of Islam. People did not want to perish. So they again took up Hinduism and started fighting Islam.
@@SJking-gk4go Tamil was a uncivilised language. It was Aryans who embraced and assimilated Tamil and Dravidian languages and made it a literary language. If Tamil is Bronze, Sanskrit is the Gold. Gold is not born out of Bronze, it is the other way round.
@@mtarkesdon't feed me your nonsense. Neither do I want to know about your, cheap knowledge about who is uncivilized. You are uncivilized to think any language or people is above another. I never stated any negative here. So go away.
