In this podcast, we had a wonderful conversation with the author of the book, "How to Love in Sanskrit", Anusha Rao. In this we learned the beauty of Sanskrit literature and the way it demonstrates the emotion, we know as love, an emotion seen and written about in every language of the world. Ms Anusha Rao is a PhD candidate at the University of Toronto, and this is her book which details the way Sanskrit literature has evolved. Sanskrit has too often been regarded as the sacred language of the gods, yet it is love that has been the overwhelming obsession of Sanskrit writers for over 3,000 years. How to Love in Sanskrit is an invitation to Sanskrit love poetry, bringing together verses and short prose pieces by celebrated writers like Kalidasa and Banabhatta, Buddhist and Jain monks, scholars, emperors, and even some modern-day poets. Join us as we navigate the complex landscape of history and identities, gaining insights from Ms. Rao extensive background and shedding light on the multifaceted dimensions of Poetry in the Sanskrit world and how they changed the way we see the world and the word, Love Tune in for a captivating dialogue that transcends boundaries and deepens our understanding of lingual dynamics
