Rishi Panini hears Shiva’s Damaru
–
When Shiva plays his damaru, his drum of consciousness, the Shiva Sutras, the phonemes of Speech, are heard by the great master of sacred speech, Rishi Panini, on the night of Maha Shivaratri. This is the supreme inspiration and foundation of his unequaled composition, the Ashtadhyayi.

… we are not dealing with letters any more. We’re dealing with spaces and places of articulation.

So I will give you the syllables now that Panini received in his Darshan of Shiva on Mahashivaratri night, 2600 years ago, 3000 years ago, God knows when.

This is one of the powerful collections of syllables I think on the planet and certainly without the revelation of this collection of syllables to Panini it would have required a whole different thing to happen to eventually create a computer revolution.

… the fact that your are relating to articulations and syllables rather than letters is all the difference in the world.
