29th October 2024 (Offline)

During the second half of his visit on 29th October 2024 to Chanakya University, an Interactive session for Faculty and research scholars was organised by CIKS. The session was intended to discuss the scope and methodology of research in the field of Indian history, culture and other related subjects. 19 members of faculty and research scholars participated in the interaction. The discussion built upon the previous talk by Dr. Vedam on ‘Exploring the Deep History of the Indian Civilisation’. In this session various questions were presented by the faculty and scholars and were clarified by Dr. Vedam. The discussion revealed that many similarities exist between the ancient Indian, Egyptian and Greek mythology. Even fields like astronomy and medicine were practiced in these civilizations but the trace of which have been broken, lost or distorted over time. Methodologies to look back into the traditions, research methods to engage in meaningful and unbiased research were also emphasised upon during the discussion. The session provided meaningful, practical and innovative insights into research methodology and paradigms.
