The influence of Indian civilization on ancient Central Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and beyond has been extensively documented, revealing an expansive cultural sphere. It is imperative to look beyond the historical narratives portrayed in mainstream education and by leftist historians to truly understand the profundity and historical significance of the Indian Knowledge System, which predates conventional portrayals.

An ecosystem of distorted historical accounts has perpetuated inaccuracies, including the colonial Aryan Invasion Theory and Aryan-Dravidian politics, as well as the influence of socialist-communist propaganda and Islamism-wokism, all of which have contributed to undermining and demeaning Indian Civilization Heritage while promoting social disintegration. The remedy to these challenges lies in the pursuit of categorical knowledge, which can offer a robust rebuttal established in this insightful presentation.

About Speaker:

Dr Raj Vedam holds a doctorate degree in Electrical Engineering with many years of multi-disciplinary experience, and has developed a strong research interest in the history of sciences, mathematics and technology. His research shows unacknowledged but significant contributions of ancient Indians to sciences and math, impacting several civilizations over different periods of time.

While Western texts on the subject enforce a parochial narrative sourcing all sciences and math from ancient Greece or Rome or Egypt, Raj Vedam presents contrary facts and evidence to show their indebtedness to the Indian civilization. He has presented his findings in over 200 public talks, several teacher training workshops, several research publications, and offers two courses on the same at Hindu University of America.
