Why does Kak connect ancient India to modern science?
My research connects ancient Indian traditions to modern science because I believe there are deep continuities in human inquiry. Ancient texts like the Rgveda, when analyzed rigorously, reveal sophisticated conceptual frameworks that prefigure aspects of modern mathematics, information theory, and even cosmology. Understanding these origins can offer fresh perspectives on the evolution of scientific thought and highlight India's foundational contributions to global knowledge, challenging conventional timelines.
