Indian Institute of Temple Management is this solution to revive culture.
India is a country of various religion, and Hindu has been the dominating community in India. The Sanskrit is called the mother of all the languages of world. but at present it is hard to find young people who knows Sanskrit well. In last 20 years youth has lost interest in Sanskrit, and if it remain the same, Sanskrit will be the language which will be just part of history. Our future generation will be not able to read the Gita, and The Ramayana in its original language. They will not be able to know knowledgeable story of panchtantra. and also they will not be able to learn the suhastani.
The power which is in Sanskrit, is not found in any other languages of the world. Just be reading one Sloka people can feel the peace, being the Brahman I was lucky to read Sanskrit and take the benefit of many things which is hard to explain in any word. When ever I read Sanskrit Sloka during any Puja many people around me look at me and tell do you know Sanskrit. At present time only few youth are interested to read sanskrit and and even if they knows because of their family background not because of their own interest.
In only few temple you will hear Sanskrit sloka during day time, Sanskrit sloka is just used at the time of Puja, and apart from that Hindi bhakti song is used. There used to be time when all the temple used to play only sloka in Sanskrit and atmosphere used to be full of peace. Why we are missing those things, When I asked this questing from one of the Pandit of chattarpur temple ( Delhi), his reply was very honest. he told that in present those people who visit the temple only few understand sanskrit or only few want to hear sanskrit. so as per the people choice we have to play only Hindi songs. He also told me that it is very hard to find people who is expert in Sanskrit, and even if we find someone they are at the their last stage.So all the temples are in scarcity of good Pandit.
Why our government could not attempt to generate interest for Sanskrit in youth. Even Sanskrit is one of the subject in 10th class, but people study that to just score passing mark. Every country try to preserve their culture and their uniqueness, but why our government is not trying to do so. Why youth is not showing their interest in Sanskrit because of opportunity. In last 20 years government was not able to project Sanskrit language as one of the opportunistic field. After 1992 people stared migrating to English language from Sanskrit and Hindi. I am not against the English or development, but per my understanding people should not have forgotten their traditional thing which is the symbol of Indian culture,
I welcome decision of Narener Modi government to establish Indian Institute of Temple Management. and he has shown the opportunities that how much opportunities are available in this field. In across the world you will find temple like in USA, Europe and other part of the world, Where ever you will find NRI you will also find temple, but most of the temple are without good Pandit Jee. Even in India and Nepal where most of the Hindu leave you can easily identify scarcity of knowledgeable Pandit jee.
In past 20 years many Sanskrit school and colleges were closed down, partly because of government attempt and partly because of youth interest in this.
Now Modi attempt which is unique in itself will certainly provide tonic to revive Sanskrit, and also in future you will find people passing from that institution getting hefty pkg. But in India like big countries only one institution is not sufficient, Many other government needs to follow the path of Modi and they need to proof that we Indian are not going to forget our tradition and our culture, We are people of multiple tellent we can be good in English without leaving our culture behind. Let us wait and watch the result.
