Ancient Wisdom.
Modern Times.
Ocean of Sanskrit works.
There is an interesting story in the preface of Panchantantra, a work from 4th century. There was a king who had teenager princes, and they were not very inclined to classroom activities. They were wasting their peak youth time and were not fit to be a future king. The worried king asked the pundits of the court on how to make them worthy of being a future king? While some suggested 12 years of grammar followed by few years of logic, governance, literature, arts and the like, one minister said:
The classic work of Panchatantra then goes about giving wisdom about politics, governance, administration, people management and the likes of practical wisdom via stories involving animal characters, while teaching the language as well. Perhaps, the first example of edutainment, and home schooling!
How to swim the Sanskrit ocean?
Many people are excited to learn Sanskrit to study the Vedas directly on their own. However, that is like going for a post-doctoral degree without attending school and college, or wishing to climb Mt Everest without even doing a half-marathon!
It is better to adopt a practical and doable approach. There are a lot of other works with practical wisdom to benefit in all aspects of modern life.
Start small, start specific, start practical. Something with immediate results. Something that can be managed within your busy life of work, family and other responsibilities.
Sanskrit literature is a vast, vast ocean. And life is short. Unless one is doing full-time Sanskrit studies academics, it is recommended to focus on smaller steps and building upon it.
