Last month, I attended a three day Sanskrit immersion family camp being held at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington.  The camp was sponsored by Samskrita Bharati (संस्कृतभारती), an international organization that is “devoted to the mission of popularizing Sanskrit as a spoken language, and, thereby, engendering a cultural renaissance through rejuvenation of this language which holds the key to the unfoldment of India’s rich cultural heritage and knowledge.”

This was the fourth year I had attended their summer workshop.  I loved being with the faculty and students I had met in previous years, as well having the opportunity to meet the new students.  I felt very connected to everyone; connected through our love of Sanskrit.

A few days ago, I found a photo of the students and faculty who attended this year’s camp on the Seattle Samskrita Bharati Facebook page.  I don’t think you will have any trouble spotting me! 🙂
