‘What is ‘scientific’ about Vedic knowledge systems?’ is an important question that probes the veracity and validity of Vedic Sciences.

Shaastras are carefully drafted with immense attention to observation, coherence, reason and verification. Study of Shaastra exposes the structured content and its context from a domain knowledge point of view. Going one step further, peering into the thought of the Shaastrakaara reveals this ‘structure’ / ‘model’ / ‘framework’ into which the content is fit. So, identifying how these Shaastric structures are built, trains one to think in line with the Shaastrakaara, a little beyond being a Shaastrajna, based on one’s study of the Shaastric content.

This Vedic Essentials bundled program is for Shaastrajnas who wish to transform to Shaastrakaaras by being able to assimilate, replicate, recreate and apply the knowledge models and structures that form the framework of Vedic Shaastras in contemporary knowledge and application scenarios.
