Author : Dr. Gurpreet Kour
Abstract :
India's ancient civilization boasts a vast and profound repository of knowledge across disciplines such as philosophy, mathematics, science, medicine, arts, and governance. The Indian Knowledge System (IKS), rooted in holistic learning and experiential wisdom, presents a transformative opportunity for reimagining contemporary education. This paper explores the principles of IKS, its relevance in the 21st century, and its integration into modern educational frameworks. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the paper argues that embracing IKS can foster critical thinking, ethical values, sustainability, and inclusive development.
