🔱 Is there a language so perfect it maps sound to the cosmos?
So logical, it works like code?
So sacred it's called the language of the gods?🛕
Yes. It’s Sanskrit.🕉️
A 🧵that might change how you see language forever👇
From NASA labs to Himalayan chants, here’s the story.
[1/10]
Sanskrit isn’t just a language—it’s a living vibration.
It wasn’t “invented” like English or French.
It was revealed that Brahman is a śabda, or sound, as a divine principle.
Spoken by sages, chanted in mantras, and mapped to the cosmos. 🌌

[2/10]
🚨 FACT: Sanskrit is the only human language arranged by place of articulation in the mouth.
Each letter is placed scientifically:
-> Guttural: क
-> Palatal: च
-> Cerebral: ट
-> Dental: त
-> Labial: प
A phonetic periodic table. 🎙️

Panini’s Aṣṭādhyāyī (~500 BCE) is the world’s earliest known generative grammar.
It uses nearly 4,000 rules—essentially a linguistic algorithm.
Some say it anticipates modern programming logic. 🧠

Even NASA once considered using Sanskrit for machine translation due to its "unambiguous structure".
Why?
Because syntax clarity + zero redundancy
= perfect for logic-based systems.

[1/9] What do recent decisions by the incoming US administration (President Trump) hold for Israel? 🌍🇮🇱
Let's do a deep dive! A thread. 🇮🇱🇺🇸
For those of us who have been appalled by the growing antisemitism and the horrors of October 7, when Hamas perpetrated one of the most barbaric acts of terror against the Jewish people, the lack of clear policy and ambivalence in US support for Israel during the Biden administration has been disheartening.
The burning question is: What does the new administration signal, and what does it hold for Israel?
P.S. Thank you to everyone who reached out for my thoughts on this matter. Instead of responding individually, I’ve compiled my insights into this thread. I invite you to read through and share if you find it interesting!
