INTRODUCTION
This sequence of handouts, videos, and other resources is intended to supplement students, instructors, researchers, and learners of Introductory and Intermediate Sanskrit at the University of British Columbia (UBCSANSKRIT).
These materials are not designed to be a standalone primer; rather, they are meant to supplement the Devavāṇipraveśikā primer by R.P. Goldman and S. Sutherland-Goldman (Third Edition, 2004). You are encouraged to purchase a physical copy of the DVP, available through MLBD.CO.IN in India, or through Amazon or other sources worldwide.
An earlier set of materials developed as part of the UBCSANSKRIT initiative are the UBC Sanskrit Learning Tools. This website (designed in 2008-10), which includes additional study aids and interactive features, may be accessed through the link below.
