This is the first type of work in the history of Sanskrit linguistics. Though a number of studies on the grammatical and linguistic aspects of Vedic and Classical Sanskrit have been carried out, yet a comprehensive study taking into account various aspects of Sanskrit language from the point of modern linguistics, has remained a desideratum. The few efforts made in this direction are neither comprehensive nor systematic in their treatment. Thus a need for an exhaustive and comprehensive study of the two stages of the development of Sanskrit language from the point of view of modern linguistics, was felt since long. Keeping in view of the necessity of such a study, this work dealing with the phonology of the two stages has been carried out. The contrastive study of phonology of Vedic and Classical Sanskrit will cater to the need of Sanskrit scholars and students interested into contrastive and comparative analysis of Vedic and Classical Sanskrit.

The present book makes an humble attempt to analyze the various conflicting and contradictory views about the person of Jesus. Most of the scholarly findings were relating the legends associated with Jesus the Christ with Lord Krishna of India, others were finding Buddhist element in his teachings and character. Yet another type of studies were negating the historicity of Jesus the Christ. In view of all these conflicting and contradictory findings one gets confused and face a volley of questions as to whether Jesus really lived in India. Whether there was any person known as Jesus in first century. Was he born to a virgin or not? Was he born on Dec. 25th or some other date? Did he really start preaching at the age of 30? Was he reincarnated from Baptist John? Was he a good shepherd or cowherd? Whether he was born in Bethlehem or Nazareth. This compelling book tries to solve the Jesus riddle in the presence of the plethora of stories woven around the Jesus.

Findings here set aside conventional notion regarding the origin of speech and tries to present the actual picture behind the caption ‘Divine Origin of Speech.’ This work also attempts to discover the sequence of origin of various phonemic sounds.

The present concordance is a revised, updated, improved (technique-wise and otherwise) and enlarged Devan gr version of Bloomfield's famous Vedic Concordance. It is a great reference work on the Vedas comprising of an alphabetic p da (quarter part) index of Vedic Mantras involving 120 Vedic texts. Following salient features have made the present edition more significant and valuable: The present concordance being in Devanagari script would give the readers the taste of the actual Mantra-p das of the Vedic texts. It would also help the readers to understand the Vedic Mantras in a more easy and lucid manner. It contains the correct alphabetical order of various entries from the point of Devanagari orthographic system wherever Bloomfield failed to maintain. Though Bloomfield tried his best to represent the Vedic lores in a most perfect manner through Roman letters by applying diacritical marks, still nasal sounds, supra segmental sounds like jihvamooleeya and upadhmaneeya sounds could not be represented as perfectly as they should have been. Bloomfield could not distinguish between many Sanskrit sounds represented in devanagari script through his diacritical system. Moreover the diacritical system adopted by him has become outdated these days. Under the circumstances, a new student trained in the current system will find lot of difficulties to make out the century's old system adopted and applied by him. So, the present author thought it appropriate and justified to present the Vedic concordance in the Devanagari script in an updated, revised and improved manner. We are pleased to announce that the much awaited fourth vol. has finally seen the light of the day. It is hoped that this complete four vol. work will be of great significance to all serious researchers of the Vedas. The author had to toil hard to make it palatable and as perfect as possible, still the mistakes of proof here and there cannot be ruled out.
