Dear Reader
We are witnessing the transition phase of education, and riding on the wave of
e-learning, we forget to dig deeper into the depths of ancient texts & scriptures for the
sacred pearls of education. We got carried away by the e-learning but forgot to explore
our roots. We should rise above our narrow thinking of understanding the ancient texts
like Vedas, Puranas and Upanishadas from religious sectarian outlook but treat these as
repository of age old wisdom above our narrow religious Coloring. If we care about our
cultural roots, in the long run we can savour rich modern fruits. Our Vedas and Puranas
are not only sacred scriptures to chant and recite in religious or social ceremonies but
they are spiritual wisdom and scientic knowledge in its most rened and crystallized
form. It is high time we should pay rich tribute to our forefathers by exploring and
researching our ancient texts in the light of the latest technological & scientic
advancements and make the best use of our ancient treasures to restore the lost glory of
our nation in the eyes of the modern world. These sacred scriptures are not only
Shalokas and Sutras but also provide knowledge of science, musicology and codes of
thinking & living. We undervalue the spiritual insights of our forefathers and overvalue
the western hollow scientic achievements. Our university is taking initiatives and baby
steps in this unexplored eld of ancient oriental knowledge.
Where whole world is looking with hope and faith towards India the cradle of civilization
to become the torchbearer of knowledge, we look elsewhere for guidance. We ought to
be proud of our national heritage and spiritual roots.
We hope India will soon restore its rightful status as 'Vishawa Guru'.
