Continue your exploration of Sanskrit and it’s healing power of sound and vibration in this Level II course.
Over a weekend, during this 14-hour American Sanskrit Institute course offering, you will enhance your understanding of the mouth positions and use of the palate in the formation of sound through chanting and continued study. The first day will be devoted to reviewing Level I and refining your understanding of the alphabet and vowel/consonant combinations. Day 2 will cover consonant combinations with an emphasis on reading and writing the Devanagari script.  You will also be introduced to the Panini Sutras which describe the ‘rules’ of Sanskrit grammar.

Pre-requisite for this course is American Sanskrit Institute Level I.

This workshop will be delivered online. The ASI learning model and design of this program depend on a unified, collective group experience. We know this will be more challenging to achieve through an online format, but are confident we can do it under certain conditions.

As always for this workshop, participants must be present for the entire class. This means being with the group online for eight hours each day, with several scheduled breaks of around 30 minutes and other short breaks as needed. It also means being able to be in a quiet place where you can focus on the computer screen, be uninterrupted, and speak and chant out loud with the group.

In addition, participants must be comfortable with an online workshop. We’re working hard to figure out the details in advance, but anticipate that there will be some things we did not foresee. It may require some patience from all of us!

Participation is limited to 12 people. Please join this adventure if you are comfortable with the online format, have a living situation that will support your participation, and are willing to experiment with us.

Note: workshop times (all times US-Central Time):

Friday 6:00 p.m. - 8 :00 p.m.
Saturday & Sunday 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
