Sanskrit: A Sacred Model of Language

What makes a language sacred is how we use it. If a language is used to discover the sacredness of life, it becomes a sacred language.

Whether or not a language is sacred is also determined by who is using it. This in turn has a great deal to do with whether a language is being used consciously or unconsciously. We may use language consciously as an instrument to accomplish our real purpose in life, that is, to wake up and find out who we are; or we may find ourselves unconsciously programmed by language, using it to maintain patterns of a struggle for individual survival established by previous generations.
