The Tenets Of Indian Knowledge Systems: Epistemic Foundations And Civilizational Legacy

Author(s) Ms. Ramya Kallur K V, Mr. Shrinidhi M
Country India
Abstract The Indian subcontinent represents a wide spectrum of knowledge systems and cultural practices that have gone hand-in-hand with each other. India emerged as a distinctive civilization whose very foundation lies deep in the ancient philosophical vision of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ - where the whole world constitutes but as one single family. This created ideals of unity, tolerance, and respect for freedom and knowledge. The history of human society is always an interesting subject. It spans from primitive tribal communities to highly developed civilizations. Whether viewed from the point of view of material development, intellectual growth, or spiritual progress history exhibits the ideals pursued by humans throughout time. Thus, the history of any civilization tells the story of the ever-changing ideals of humanity and its ongoing struggle to realize those ideals. India’s traditional systems of knowledge have developed over ages and through various cultures. These systems are known as aboriginal or native systems rooted in diverse populations, food habits, clothing, languages, lifestyles, and health care practices.
India's traditional systems and culture have been proved and accepted by a number of science and research organizations around the world. Those systems and practices are gaining popularity due to the available ancient and modern expertise, innovations, benefits and beliefs related to traditional methods. Rishis like Varahamihira, Aryabhata, Vagbhata, Charaka, and Sushruta played crucial roles in further developing knowledge and placing India at the forefront of scientific developments. Since ancient times, India has remained one of the finest nations providing a range of effective resources like multivitamins, minerals, and other essential supplements that help protect and strengthen the immune response.
In this paper we have tried to:
1. Summarize the nature and characteristics of traditional Indian knowledge systems, drawing particular examples from some branches of Science, Technology, Ayurveda, Astronomy, Mathematical Science, Yoga, and Therapies.
2. Spell out some scientific ways in which the traditional Indian knowledge system differs from the present counterpart.
3. Reflect on the possibilities of interlinkages & co-operation between these varying traditions, as they take place today and in terms of future possibilities.
In the paper, ancient Indian knowledge and culture have been reconceived in a light which is very important to create human values.
