Today many Indian and foreign schools/colleges offer Sanskrit as an optional subject. For such student these books are a very effective means of introducing Sanskrit, which they might not have studies previously. The book could also be useful for those involved in performing arts, such as dance and music, or for students of Yoga and Ayurveda - subjects which have many Sanskrit references.

The next step is to add vowel to the consonants, and then joint (com-pound) consonants. Family, words and consonants are formed.
