The Paninien System of Grammar

Sanskrit is considered to be the mother of all languages as it has no beginning. The beginningless Vedic and allied Scriptures are obtaining in this language. The Sanskrit language has a grammatical structure of the language, the rules of which were largely set down by the great scholar Panini who is thought to have lived around the 4 th Century B.C.

The language, as it was spoken, was arranged into some 2000 grammatical sutras by Panini using a terse methodology (meta-language) not unlike the highly advanced computer programs of today do.

The sutras were arranged into four sections in a book called Ashtadyayi.

A thorough study of Panini’s grammar is considered indispensable for a proper understanding of the Sanskrit language. Panini’s is therefore the primary method of teaching Sanksrit grammar used by Swami Dayananda in his Vedanta courses conducted at Dayananda Ashram and at his Arsha Vidya Gurukulams throughout India and abroad.
