A look Beyond Takshila and Nalanda needed for Reviving the Glory of Science and Technology of Ancient Bharat

By Prof PB Sharma

Much of the dialogue on college training in historical India has been centered round the glory of Takshshila and Nalanda universities. While these have been undoubtedly in international prominence in the post-Buddhist period, none of them present even a hint of what the India of historical really was in respect of science and technological development of the degree that even thus far stays a thriller to the modern-day scientists and know-how innovators. Takshshila and Nalanda have been undoubtedly nice points of interest for students from round the world however have been by no means the gateways for gauging the eminence in science and know-how that nice centres of Bharatvarsha of Vedic instances had achieved to qualify Bharatvarsha as a Viswa Guru for deep studying and scholarship in pathbreaking science and know-how improvements. The large hole in appreciation of historical Bharatvarsha’s science and know-how prowess turned much more pronounced after these centres of studying and scholarship of submit Buddhist period bought destroyed by international invaders and looters for whom studying and scholarships have been the arch enemies of their lust and greed.

Ramayanik and Mahabharata Era of Advanced Science and Technology of Glorious Ancient Bharat

The glory of scientifically superior and technologically empowered historical Bharat would require us to return so far as the Ramayanik and Mahabharata instances to get the glimpses of super-science and thoughts boggling know-how improvements that the centres of training in science and know-how, that the universities of historical Bharat had achieved then. The ashramas of Vishvamitra the place Lord Rama together with brother Laxmana was mentored and educated by Maharishi Vishvamitra in super-science of ‘thoughts to thoughts connectivity’ and it’s functions for firing of the deadly missiles like Brahmashtra and Agniashtras from distant areas by merely recalling in thoughts the secret digital codes of these weapons. What extra, as talked about by Goswami Tulsidas in Ramcharitmanas, one tremendous morning on completion of the internship, Maharishi Vishvamitra requested Lord Rama to sit down in entrance of him some eighteen inches away and transferred these secret digital codes for firing deadly weapons utilizing the most superior communication know-how, specifically, the thoughts to thoughts connectivity, just like the modern-day blue tooth transmission of knowledge and information from one pc to a different. This got here in helpful to Lord Rama throughout the conflict with Ravana in firing missiles from distant areas that have been devastating to demon king Ravana as described in the narration of the Rama- Ravana conflict.

Similarly, the ashramas of Sandeepni in Ujjaini the place Lord Krishna studied with Sudama and the Dronacharya Ashram in Gurugram the place Pandavas have been educated by nice guru Dronacharya, have been, in truth, nice facilities of training in superior science and know-how of the order that’s but to be scaled by fashionable sciences, given nice capabilities of scientific analysis and know-how improvements that we now have right now in the period of AI and Smart and clever machines and gadgets.

Ridiculing the Indian Science Congress as a Circus was a Grave Mistake of the Modern Scientific Community

In a current article in Nature in May 2024 on Brain Reading gadgets for decoding the inner speech of the mind, it’s reported that “Scientists have developed mind implants that may decode inner speech — figuring out phrases that two individuals spoke of their minds with out shifting their lips or making a sound”. It is, in truth, the starting of catching the ideas and what’s in the thoughts of an individual effectively earlier than these are communicated in the type of speech or different varieties of communication.

The current Brain Reading machine continues to be not close to to what Telepathy, the thoughts to thoughts connectivity may do as a brilliant science however a step in the path of making thoughts to thoughts communication attainable in the future by way of fashionable scientific developments.

Telepathy and different Vedic sciences have been ridiculed by some, together with a Nobel Laureate of science, manner again in 2016, when the grand show of Vedic sciences together with Ayurveda and Vedic Mathematics have been offered at the Indian Science Congress in 2016. The Nobel Laureate of Science current at the Indian Science Congress dismissed these Vedic sciences as non-science and even went on to explain the Indian Science Congress as a Circus!

In a subsequent seminar by the similar Nobel Laureate in Delhi, the ridicule to Vedic sciences was additional voiced and India’s love for Vedic sciences was labelled as “Placebo Effect”. I keep in mind questioning the Nobel Laureate by saying that “if the current day science is unable to clarify telepathy, or Vedic Mathematics it doesn’t imply that telepathy is not any science and Vedic Mathematics has no scientific basis. Maybe the present science will not be but superior sufficient to duplicate the mind-to-mind connectivity for person-to-person communication that telepathy gives”. I even talked about that younger innovators at Amity University Gurugram at the moment had put collectively a tool utilizing micropulse sensors and telemetry to transmit with out wire, mind indicators that allowed gestures to be replicated from one individual to a different with out one another. But for those that dismiss the Vedic sciences as no science, it made nice headlines to destroy the credibility of the Indian Science Congress that was established by nobody lower than the best of the nice scientists of India specifically, the Nobel Laureate CV Raman whose love for science for decoding the mysteries of nature enabled him to find ‘Raman Effect’ that until date continues to empower fashionable scientists with scientific instruments and gadgets to unearth the secret of life and origin of creation.

Viksit Bharat imaginative and prescient requires establishing Vishvamitra, Bhardwaj, and Sandeepni Ashram Gurukul Universities to revive the historical Glory of Vedic Science and Technology

Now that the imaginative and prescient of Viksit Bharat@2047 is being translated right into a actuality, the time is true to revive the nice centres of studying and scholarships like Vishvamitra Ashram (University) in Tapovan close to Ayodhya, Bhardwaj Ashram( University) in Chitrakoot, Sandeepni Ashram( University) in Ujjain and Dronacharya Ashram( University) in Gurugram to revive the glory and eminence of historical Bharat, that then was in true sense the brightest lighthouse of data and enriched knowledge for the international humanity.

The Government of New Bharat is effectively suggested to attract a blueprint of motion to transcend Takshashila and Nalanda to Ramayanik and Mahabharata instances to revive the misplaced glory of Vedic science and know-how and lead the world neighborhood in path-breaking Science and Game-Changing Technologies so important to understand the Viksit Bharat imaginative and prescient. The greatest of the brains in science from throughout the globe shall then converge in the direction of Bharat to those nice facilities of Vedic Sciences to unearth the hitherto hidden treasures of Vedic science and its translation into new science that shall have an inbuilt religious Instinct for use of science and know-how for the bigger collective good of the humanity.
