Introduction:

Hello Friends, welcome to the milliondollarknowledge.com. Today here, we are going to know and understand the point of view of Sadhguru about language. Which language he gave more importance and what is his opinion about teaching that in our country teaching should be in the native language or English. In one interview he was given his opinion about it. Then let's see it below.

Education in Native Language V/s in English

Sadhguru said that we need to understand that there are 25 or 30 different languages in India. If we add up all the dialects then there are 1300 dialects, but at least twenty-five to thirty full-fledged languages with a script of their own, with a huge body of literature behind it. A perfect language does not happen overnight.

The oldest language on the planet is the Tamil language. Language is a very important part of human intelligence. Many linguists around the world have recognized the power of language. The human ability to use language essentially is rooted in India. It's from here the ability to use the language came to the rest of the world.

Almost all the languages which are largely we know Europe and Arab. All of them in Europe and Arabia had Sanskrit influence. So, in our eagerness to just get a job, we don't have to completely destroy these languages. We will lose out something very big.

English is a fantastic thing in terms of its simplicity because the internet and we know, modern technology has taken to English language, it is a must. Nobody can be against English anymore, you got to take it. Even if you don't like the British, you have to like the English language. This is now part of our language, the good work we have done. Although many bad things happened during the British rule, one good thing is that we have integrated language.

Today many educated Indians can speak better English than most British can speak. It's a good thing, but at the same time, we should never kill our languages, which have been here for thousands of years. Because the phonetic range that is there in Indian languages is such, it stimulates every aspect of who you are.

The English language has a very narrow phonetic range. So, this ability to use sounds to stimulate and trigger one's intelligence and energy within ourselves is something that we should not give up. Every child needs to know a language other than English. Because our states are divided on a linguistic basis, so in that state whatever the language is, they must know. With our utmost passion for Job Oriented Education. Sadhguru replied more on it that he knows many schools are completely destroying the local languages, this should not happen. Local language must be there, it must be a part of us.

At least people should know how to speak and read, if not then we are not great, we don't know how to write great literature; at least we must know how to read and speak one more language other than the English language. Our education policy has considered that. It is the responsibility of every school to ensure that happens.

Sadhguru said that he feels the easier way to do it is, there maybe you are studying science, in an English medium, they are largely studying the English language, but we could make some play, some theatre, some art, something in local languages so that people uses that as a social thing. It is imperative to use it as a form of entertainment with a natural interest in how to express oneself in that language.

Sadhguru added that we should not kill these languages because it's taken thousands of years to create. This is our national pride that we have the maximum number of languages. There are no geographical separations; there are no oceans between these states, there are no mountain ranges clearly demarcating and separating the populations for a long time. But though we lived here for thousands of years, we kept our language, these people kept their language. When we went to trade and transact then we learned the other language but we always kept our language.

Conclusion:

Today, the new generations are losing their language so rapidly. All of us, at least in our homes with our children and wherever possible, there must be a certain amount of time where we must use the local language, It's very important. We will regret this deeply after a couple of generations if we don't take care of it now, because you can't bring back a language. You can kill it, but you can't breathe life into it, it's very difficult. Subscribe to milliondollarknowledge.com for regular updates.
