Namaste !

Does anyone here know the root meanings of each alphabet in Sanskrit ?
I am not looking for the root words, but the meanings of each vowel and consonant.
Is there any information how lord shiva decided on the alphabets ?

Thank you very much 
Sinu

Sinu,

 
What format, what script... do your want for your 'Sanskrit'?

A simple search for Ekakshara Kosha comes up with this downloadable Devanagari PDF: 
  

Without taking the trouble to convert it into a Latin script, I can't comment on the content.
