Abstract |
|
|
| Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) is a section of the Indian Ministry of Education that promotes indigenous knowledge systems. Knowledge assets generated in India are called the Indian Knowledge System (IKS). Mathematics, physics, technology, medicine, astronomy, architecture, philosophy, arts, languages, literature, culture, society, and traditions are included. IKS has traditionally established its own written or verbal texts, methodologies, and standards for knowledge generation, validation, and dissemination. The Indian knowledge system covers all sectors of society, unlike the western one. Indian knowledge system lags western methodology. This deficiency is due to two factors: Indias history as a nation-state and western societys methodology. History shows the development and collapse of Indian societies like Vedic, Post Vedic, Medieval, Colonial, and Independent India, while western technique is scientific and universal (Eurocentrism in post-colonial discourse). Indian knowledge systems use oral tradition more.
In this paper we are trying to investigate the historical journey of Indian Knowledge system through methodological comparison with the western system. This paper is based on Secondary data using Historical and comparative methods. Through this study Student, Researcher and Intellectuals will definitely be able to learn new and expand their knowledge through Indian Knowledge System.
