Beginners Saṃskṛta Śibiram, May 2019

Saṃskṛta Bhāratī UK invites you to participate in the Beginners Saṃskṛta Śibiram (residential Spoken Sanskrit Camp) at Leicester over the upcoming May long weekend (4th, 5th & 6th May 2019).

Level: Beginners (Anyone who wants to gain a basic knowledge of Spoken Sanskrit)

In our residential camps (Śibiram) attendees will get to stay in a beautiful natural setting, learn and speak Saṃskṛtam without any distractions. Such camps have proved to be very successful in not just learning the language, but also imbibing the cultural values and also re-energize oneself. More importantly, one gets to network and form friendship with others with similar interests.

• Learn to use spoken Sanskrit in an immersive atmosphere.
• Practise your spoken-Sanskrit skills with like-minded friends.
• Listen to stories narrated, songs sung and games played in Saṃskṛtam
• Find some hard-to-find Sanskrit books and educational materials on sale at the venue.

All this and more in a fun-filled environment!

For improving the Saṃskṛtam that you may have learned, this is the best opportunity. Even if you have never participated in a saṃbhāṣaṇa śibiram before, this opportunity will give you a jump-start to your spoken sanskrit skills.
