MODULE 1:
Introduction and Motivation
Introduction: How ancient is ancient? Is all ancient wisdom fundamentally religious or
spiritual? Does ancient wisdom still have anything important to remember and
consider relevant today? Why should we look back while living in the present and
building for the future? How can we separate religion, spirituality and philosophy?
The Indian Story: Was India really a great country in the past? What has changed in
India since, and what has not? How is culture and heritage important or relevant for
the future that is not like the past at all? Was knowledge really codified in literature? Is
Hinduism a way of life or a religion and should we care? Is the caste system or varna
system divisive?
History of Sciences and History of Arts: What has humanity achieved so far in Sciences
and in Arts? Understanding the geography of thought and pursuit of knowledge;
Leading from the emerging future through the history of humanity
