	Prakrit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some scholars include all Middle Indo-Aryan languages ultimately derived from Sanskrit under the rubric of "Prakrits"; others emphasise the independent development of these languages, often separated from the history of Sanskrit by wide divisions of caste, religion, and geography.
		By the definitions used by classical grammarians themselves, a Prakrit would have its grammar ("Vyakarana") written in Sanskrit, whereas Pali grammars are written in Pali (posing an independent claim to legitimacy, i.e., counter to Sanskrit's claims as the supreme language) --an important, if merely techical, distinction.
		Other Prakrits include the Gāndhārī, and Paisaci, which is known through grammarians' statements.

		Needless to say, there is a still further gulf between thephilosophy of early Buddhism and contemporaneous Brahmanicalthought of the Middle Indic period, including beliefs about therespective sacred languages themselves.

		But whatever the reason, in the first century CE there was a general writing down of the teachings, and the White Lotus Sutra was among the teachings that became scriptures--'scripture' literally meaning a written document--at that time.
		The teachings of Buddhism were written down in various languages-- Sanskrit, Pali, Prakrit, Apabhramsa, Paisaci, and so on--and the White Lotus Sutra was one of the first to be written down in Sanskrit.
		But although Sanskrit is the language of ancient India, it doesn't necessarily follow that India was where the text was first written down.
