Language and Linguistics -Bhāṣā Vijñānam
(Exploring structure, evolution, and science of Indian languages)
Bhāṣā Vijñānam—the science of language—is revered as both a means of communication and a path to spiritual realization. Seen as śabda-brahma (divine sound), language was explored deeply through phonetics (śikṣā), grammar (vyākaraṇa), etymology (nirukta), prosody (chandas), and ritual usage (kalpa). Pāṇini’s Aṣṭādhyāyī remains a landmark in global linguistic theory. Sanskrit, Prākrits, and regional bhāṣās served as sacred vessels of knowledge, art, and philosophy.
We invite abstracts and papers exploring (but not limited to) the following areas:
