Abstract | This study investigates the scientific foundations of traditional beliefs and practices found in ancient Indian scriptures, such as the Vedas and Upanishads. Practices such as the medicinal use of the Tulasi plant, health benefits of fasting, wearing Rudraksha beads, using copper utensils and conducting rituals like Havan are analysed by integrating ancient wisdom with modern scientific research. The aim is to bridge the gap between cultural heritage and scientific validation, providing a comprehensive understanding of their relevance and effectiveness. The objective of this study is to explore the scientific basis behind these traditional practices, demonstrating their relevance in today’s world. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach, the research aims to bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and contemporary scientific validation. This paper specifically examines; The physiological benefits of fasting; The bioelectric properties of Rudraksha beads; The neurological effects of meditation; The antimicrobial properties of Tulasi; The environmental impact of Havan; The health benefits of copper water storage. Through an analysis of existing scientific literature, this paper seeks to redefine traditional knowledge as an informed, evidence-based system rather than an obsolete belief structure. |
