Ancient Hindus had made enormous intellectual and scientific progress in an age when humans in the rest of world were wearing nothing but animal skins. Regrettably, the great achievements made by the ancient Hindus in the fields of philosophy, mathematics, astronomy, civil engineering, architecture, metallurgy, chemistry, medicine, literature, and almost every aspect of culture were either eliminated from the academic syllabi or severely downplayed.The Ministry of Education has, at last, formed a Division called IKS (Indian Knowledge Systems) as a part of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. It is heartening that 73 years after independence, someone realized that present-day Indians must learn about the phenomenal achievements of their ancestors. Over 600 universities/colleges, IITs, NITs, and the UGC NET have already included IKS as a subject. More and more institutions are incorporating IKS into existing courses or developing new ones.This exhaustive, monumental tribute to the glory of the intellect of the ancient Hindus shall serve to preserve and disseminate their wisdom so that we may not only learn about our unparalleled intellectual heritage and wisdom of our ancestors, but spread it further too.This is the ONLY book of its kind not only in the country but in the whole world covering the vast ocean of IKS in a single volume. The great and authentic knowledge presented in this book will be of invaluable help to students, teachers, researchers and every Indian who wants to learn about our great heritage. This is the ultimate resource book of Indian Knowledge Systems.
