Among the highlights was a commitment to support the development of gurukuls in Nepal through collaboration with Maharshi Sandipani Veda Vidya Pratisthan, Ujjain.
Nepalese and Indian Sanskrit scholars have come together with a visionary proposal: to host an International Sanskrit Conference annually and establish a study center dedicated to research and publishing Sanskrit scriptures. This ambitious plan emerged from a three-day Nepal-India International Sanskrit Conclave in Kathmandu, as reported by PTI.
In a show of solidarity, scholars adopted a five-point resolution during the conclave. Among the highlights was a commitment to support the development of gurukuls in Nepal through collaboration with Maharshi Sandipani Veda Vidya Pratisthan, Ujjain. Additionally, Niti Anusandhan Pratisthan Nepal is set to become the hub for the Nepal-India Sanskrit Study Centre, where joint research efforts and publications on Sanskrit scriptures from both nations will be coordinated.
The resolution also emphasized the importance of enhancing the proficiency of Nepali Sanskrit students through training programs in India. Central Sanskrit University, Delhi, pledged its assistance to Nepalese Gurukul libraries and promised to supply essential books to Sanskrit educational institutions in Nepal.
Moreover, the conclave focused on promoting the rich religious, cultural, philosophical, historical, and archaeological heritage shared between Nepal and India, with a specific emphasis on preserving Sanskrit, Pali, and Prakrit languages.
With over 120 Sanskrit scholars, professors, and government officials from both countries in attendance, the three-day event, organized in collaboration with Niti Anusandhan Pratisthan, Central Sanskrit University, Delhi, and India Foundation, Delhi, aimed to strengthen bilateral relations and elevate Sanskrit education in Nepal and India.
