In reference to the message posted about Sanskrit as compared to Tamil:
the most hard fact, and most important thing is that Sanskrit is the
language of the Vedas, and is used by the Lord.  Therefore, it is
perfect, as the Lord is perfect.  When Lord Brahma was born out of the
lotus flower from Vishu's navel, the Lord said, "Tapasya" or "Tapas". 
This is the first word spoken in what came to be our universe, and it is
Sanskrit.  If the Lord uses this language, then it is His, and is
therefore the best.

Hare Krishna!

Your servant,
Anjuli
