FUTURE TRENDS IN INDIAN KNOWLEDGE SYSTEM

Abstract

The future of the Indian knowledge system is set to transform through the integration of traditional knowledge with modern science, driven by technological advancements, cultural revival, and global collaboration. This convergence aims to combine indigenous practices such as Ayurveda and Vedic mathematics with scientific methodologies, resulting in innovative health solutions, sustainable agriculture, and environmental stewardship. Additionally, recognizing the empirical basis of traditional knowledge can enhance its global credibility. However, integrating these systems poses challenges, including differing epistemologies and issues related to intellectual property rights. Addressing these challenges requires equitable partnerships and inclusive frameworks that honor both knowledge forms, fostering mutual respect and understanding.
