Sanskrit is the store-house of the entire knowledge of ancient India. All the branches of that knowledge viz., spiritual, scientific, ritual and mundane can be mastered only by a thorough mastery over the Sanskrit language and its grammar. Most of the Indians who are good in their mother tongues have a lot of Sanskrit background because their languages borrow many Sanskrit words. Various expressions and ideas in different Indian literatures are generally narrowed from Sanskrit works. Thus, some basic Sanskrit is quite familiar to most of the Indians. Yet, they feel terrified at the prospect of learning Sanskrit. It need not be so. To understand and enjoy works like the Bhagavad-Gita, the Ramayana, the Mahabharata and the poems of Kalidasa etc., a working knowledge of Sanskrit is more than sufficient and it is easy to gain that much. With a little effort and perseverance, one can gain entry into the realms of Sanskrit world. Now, in this attempt, Sanskrit language is taught through the verses of Bhajagovindam. The work is very small. It contains only 33 verses. It is hoped that the sincere spiritual aspirant takes the work seriously. It is declared by elders that one with true determination obtains true wisdom.
