The extensive and brilliantly conceived research on Pãnini and the Origin of Language, is not only an amazing journey for the author Gouri Dharmapal but also has momentous implications for the historians of the world. It challenges the long held belief regarding Pãpini’s time and place of birth, thus raising many questions about the validity of the long-preached history of the preceding and subsequent times. These also include the so-called Indo-European or Aryan theories of the Linguists and the supremacy of the Anglo-Greek civilization. If and when accepted, after appropriate debate, her thesis will rewrite the history of India and the world.
