O mountain, accepting and marrying the beautiful maiden (vivāhya) Padmā, on a par with goddess Lakṣmī, in accordance with holy laws, the delighted sage returned to his abode. [...]”.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
