Background to Sanskrit (Sam'skrta)
Shri Shri P.R. Sarkar founded the Samskrta Vidyapiitha at Anandanagar, India. It was his great hope that Samskrta language should be studied and propogated due to its rich history and cultural legacy. Through his works such as Ananda Sutram, Shabda Cayanika and Prabhat Samgiita, he has further enriched this classical language. He also gave directions for Roman Samskrta so that Samskrta can be easily written in Roman script and does not have to rely on Devana'gari script.

But the clinical definition we use is when the heart stops beating, the lungs stop working, and as a consequence the brain itself stops working. When doctors shine a light into someone's pupil, it's to demonstrate that there is no reflex present. The eye reflex is mediated by the brain stem, and that's the area that keeps us alive; if that doesn't work, then that means that the brain itself isn't working.
