Q2 “What possible explanation – social, psychological and philosophical can be given for the pictorial form of an alphabet of any language?  किसी भी भाषा के लिखित-वर्ण की आकृति की सामाजिक-दार्शनिक-मनोवैज्ञानिक क्या व्याख्या सम्भावित है? in which 36 participants discussed various issues with the panelists – Prof. S.M Mishr, Prof. Ramakant Angiras, Dr. Vishnu Dutt, Dr. shyam Nath Jha, Dr. Amandeep Kaushik . These questions come under the preview of GaneshVidya as dictation of Mahabharat was taken by Shr Ganesh. Many issues , like- form of a syllable, probable relationship between sound and alphabet, design of an alphabet were discussed from vedic, tantrik perspectives along with Korean experiments done in this field. Idea of arbitrary and god given relation was rejected as syllables or symbols are manifestations of consciousness. They are manifestation of collective consciousness of different societies. Shloka (1-10 )of Uttar-Ramacharitam of Bhavabhuti was also discussed with curiosity. Tantrik understanding about the whole process was also discussed. Details of discussion can be watched on YouTube.

With deep regards,
