Description

संस्कृत की दो पंक्तियों की रचना, जिनके द्वारा किसी प्रकार का कथोकथन किया जाता है, श्लोक कहलाता है। श्लोक प्रायः छंद के रूप में होते हैं अर्थात् इनमें गति, यति और लय होती है। छंद के रूप में होने के कारण ये आसानी से याद हो जाते हैं। प्राचीनकाल में ज्ञान को लिपिबद्ध करके रखने की प्रथा न होने के कारण ही इस प्रकार का प्रावधान किया गया था।

Shloka or śloka (Sanskrit: श्लोक śloka, from the root श्रु śru, lit.'hear' in a broader sense, according to Monier-Williams's dictionary, is "any verse or stanza; a proverb, saying"; but in particular it refers to the 32-syllable verse, derived from the Vedic anuṣṭubh metre, used in the Bhagavad Gita and many other works of classical Sanskrit literature.
