Learn Sharada Lipi – Weekend batch

A free webinar course to learn the Sharada Lipi. On completing this course, learners will be able to recognize and write all characters of the Sharada script, and will be able to work on deciphering manuscripts written in this script.

About the course

First batch of the highly popular and well-received Learn Sharada Lipi course was held in April 2020, where close to 300 participants learnt the Sharada script and earned their certificates. They are now part of an active group which is working on manuscripts and transliterations to and from Sharada lipi.

In response to repeated requests from students who missed the first opportunity, the Core Sharada Team along with Vyoma Labs presents this new weekend batch to teach Sharada script.

At the end of the course, I was surprised with myself when I could actually decode the manuscripts and could also do the assignments with a considerable level of confidence. –Rajamani Visweswaran Ashok

The course was very well planned and delivered in a perfect manner so any layman can understand the script within couple of weeks. -Dr. Hardik Joshi

Even now the scripts which are well known like Gurumukhi, Takri are derived from Sharada script.

Testimonials from Batch -1

This is really a unique course that you can’t find anywhere else ! A unique teaching online and also rare to find nowadays in institutions academic and non-academic.

–Bruno Silva

This course is more than just learning a text. It has a great spiritual connect and this is why it becomes even more interesting and pure…. I recommend this course to people who are ready to experience another dimension of our rich culture.

–Gaurav Vaidya

The course was very effective in 1. Keeping the participants involved and interactive. 2. Ensuring that the usefulness of the Lipi is understood and how the knowledge could be applied for jointly working towards not only reviving the Lipi but also tapping the huge repertoire of manuscripts to better understand the history and cultural heritage of India.

–Shanthi Venkatesh

It’s a great initiative by the Core Šarada team. The teachers were very patient and passionate, and willing to help us students in every possible way… They provide reference materials which prove to be very handy….

–S. Rajalakshmi

The entire session of 15 days was crisp, well planned and systematic. The expertise and patience of the tutors was awesome….Looking forward to more such programs.

–Ganesh Shanker Pandey

…Rakesh ji and Veronica ji have been the ideal Gurus that one can wish to have. In addition to that Sowmya ji of Vyoma Labs has been the best moderator ever. …Thank You Vyoma Labs for making a 15 days of lock-down time so useful.

–Jyothsna Bhavanishankar

Although this course was meant for getting familiar to Sharada scripts, it went beyond the state objectives. This course, helped me not only to help me read manuscripts written in Sharada script, but it also taught me a way in which I can learn other scripts methodically. There are unread manuscripts in several ancient scripts, hiding our history. If we take it upon us to read them and share the information, it will be a good contribution to our ancient historical discovery. Thank you Vyoma team for this excellent, altruistic course.
