摘要：On a very high plane of yogic consciousness Sri Aurobindo discovers the existence of the ‘one original language’ of mankind. Such ‘one original language’ of mankind, he says, is based on certain eternal types of sound. It exists on the summit of spiritual consciousness, ‘Overmind Consciousness’ he terms it. It comes to be intelligible to the matter-oriented intellectual mind of linguistic world since Noam Chomsky finds mind at the centre of language, mind which is free from the ‘stimulus control’. Further, Ferdinand de Saussure’s linguistic vision of the existence of the basic structure of language gives an unmistakable indication of the linguistic base of the one original language, and, therefore, requires us to make a linguistic exploration to materialise this vision of the ‘one original language’ of mankind.
