Since the dawn of the Vedic era, Vedic thought has been expressed through the Sanskrit language. New ideas and thoughts flourished within the developing culture, as did the Sanskrit language. These ideas took shape and emerged through Sanskrit text and words, creating what would later be known as the Hindu religion. Language and religion became inseparable, building on each other to create modern Hindu culture. However, as the millennia passed and the Sanskrit language faded into the recesses of history, many languages ​​emerged and took their place in India. The Sanskrit foundation of Hinduism is vital to the future of Hindu culture, and its transmutation to accommodate other languages ​​to support the Hindu faith has resulted in some loss of the true original culture. However, as time passes and the Hindu faith makes its way to the West, the concern of the Hindu people awakens, for the foundation must transmute once more to be welcomed by the minds of Westerners. . All religious and spiritual teachings of Hinduism were written and spoken in Sanskrit, thus emphasizing the closeness of religion and language. For thousands of years, the hymns of the Rig Veda have been sung and chanted by followers of Hinduism. However, the vast majority of Hindus do not know the Sanskrit language and rely primarily on translations of the text to understand the spiritual context of the hymns. Professor Dean Brown explains that each word in Sanskrit has up to six different meanings, and he suggests that the combination of such words, designed to convey a specific spiritual message, will largely lose its meaning through translation. .. middle of paper ......g built in the West as a result of Hindu immigration, the demand for the teaching and learning of Sanskrit is not there. And why should it be so after all? After all, these Hindu immigrants responsible for the rooting of Hinduism in the West do not themselves know Sanskrit; the Hinduism they know is through the regional languages ​​of India. Many Hindus argue that the regional languages ​​are close enough to Sanskrit, but the problem lies in this argument; even regional languages ​​are not taught well enough to new generations. And if we can measure the history of immigrant cultures in America, the regional languages ​​of India will disappear after one or two generations in the great melting pot of the country. This means that second generations of Hindu immigrants are gradually losing their regional ethnic roots and becoming increasingly Westernized..
