Guest Lecture on " Vedic Science and Education "
Date : Tuesday, 10th July 2018
Resource Person – Dr. P.R. Mukund Professor , Electrical Engineering Department , R.I.T. Rochester , New York, U.S.A.
Objectives : To imbibe the salient features of Vedic tradition
To enable a graduate of a professional degree with tools needed for balance in personal , professional and societal responsibilities
Outcome: Students got to know importance of vedic science in this ICT enabled world.
Summary Report:

Education was given in gurukula format in the past, where there was a personal relationship of mentor and intern, between the guru and shishya. This method of education not only provided a role model for the student, but allowed the guru to personalize education for each student. The present educational system has morphed more into training for performing tasks that are marketable. While practicality in learning is needed, it is also necessary to imbibe the salient points from the Vedic tradition, within the constraints of present needs, to enable a graduate of a professional degree with tools needed for balance in personal, professional and societal responsibilities. This workshop gives specific tools to the participant to achieve this balance. The workshop was broken into four modules. The first module was focused on becoming acquainted with the Vedic perspective on knowledge, learning and balance in life. Success, as perceived by Vedic wisdom will also be presented. The second module will be focusing on shravaNa, the Vedic methodology for absorption of what is heard. This is a very critical skill that students can apply in everyday classroom. The third module will be an exercise in contemplation, called manana in the past. The current education system does not focus in this important aspect of learning.
