My Journey with Sanskrit: From Law Aspirations to Anveekshaa
Since childhood, I had always planned to pursue a career in law and become a lawyer. But life had other plans when Sanskrit was introduced to me as a subject in the 8th grade. While many find learning grammar rules and tables dry and tedious, I found myself fascinated by it. I excelled in Sanskrit in my school exams, and I knew it was something I wanted to pursue further.
After completing my 12th grade, I was meant to embark on the path to an LLB, but I had a change of heart. Despite missing out on in-house college admissions, fate led me to the unexpected combination of Sanskrit, Psychology, and Philosophy. In a way, Sanskrit chose me—something I never planned for but grew to love.
Though I completed my LLB later, my passion for Sanskrit only deepened. I pursued a post-graduate degree in Sanskrit through distant learning while working as an intern at a law firm. Over time, I found myself repeatedly choosing Sanskrit over law, not because it was easy, but because it resonated with me deeply. The logical decision was to follow what truly inspired me—Sanskrit.
I’ve been privileged to have the freedom to shape my career and explore uncharted territories. While most people with a background in Sanskrit often choose stable teaching jobs, I decided to create something new—a platform that brings modern relevance to Sanskrit, ensuring that it is accessible to everyone, just like any other field. I am working to create new opportunities for future generations, outside the traditional teaching routes, by blending tradition with innovation.
Anveekshaa was born from this vision. It’s my platform to modernize the professional world of Sanskrit while preserving its rich and elegant heritage. Through Anveekshaa, I strive to make Sanskrit approachable, relevant, and impactful for the modern world. My goal is not only to preserve the ancient wisdom of Sanskrit but also to provide new avenues for its professionals, from content creation to modern applications in various industries.
