Dear Friends,

Might someone know the source of this quote?

Sa Prathama Sanskrati Vishvavara

It is found embedded in assertions, like this:

India has been described by some traditional texts as Sa Prathama Sanskrati Vishvavara, the first and supreme culture in the world. To this day, the South Asian country remains a hotspring of ancient wisdom on mind-body health and spirituality.

If one puts this phrase in a search bar, then similar to the return of recycled factoids of 'Sanskrit-speaking' villages the same paragraph citing the AWGP is mentioned in countless websites. But AWGP website also offers little in the way of a textual reference.

I am wondering what the traditional texts might be that describe this assertion.

Thanks.

All the best,
