Swami Nighantu

Last Updated on August 19, 2019 by

This is a glossary of the Sanskrit alphabet for the purpose of introducing the meanings of each letter.

This glossary is based on Swamiji’s understanding of the Bija Nighantu, from the Dictionaries of the Tantra Sastras, and from Panini’s Grammar, as well as the many years of discussing these issues with Gurus, sadhus, priests, pandits, and pujaris as he wandered throughout the length and breadth of India.

It is a wonderful resource that will help you to dive deeper into the understanding of the meanings of Sanskrit words.

Swami Nighantu 5-4-18
