India has a rich legacy of practices and knowledge touching different spheres of life and a scientific heritage traversing various Science & Technology (S&T) domains. The traditional knowledge of India is available in various forms such as classical texts, manuscripts and/or as oral communication that has been passed on over thousands of years. This valuable knowledge is often part of our daily practices as well. Some of the traditional practices are livelihood means of the concerned knowledge holders. Our traditional practices exist in synergy between human needs and nature, often balancing resources and requirements in a local context. However, with time, India’s Traditional Knowledge Systems are eroding rapidly, and the nation has also been witnessing erosion in people’s faith towards our traditional knowledge. A grave concern is the mindless attitude of some to mimic non-Indian cultures and disdain for our traditions. It’s important to recognize that traditional heritage is an integral part of any country’s development and progression. This calls for necessary attention and action from the concerned stakeholders in the country to build further on our scientific inheritance. Only a well-informed and balanced society can drive the advancement of the country.

Under the visionary leadership of our Hon’ble Prime Minister and President, CSIR Society, Shri Narendra Modi, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) is spearheading the efforts to collaborate with the relevant partners from across the country and implement the national initiative SVASTIK (Scientifically Validated Societal Traditional Knowledge) for communicating India’s traditional knowledge to the society. CSIR-National Institute of Science Communication and Policy Research (CSIR-NIScPR) is the nodal organization to implement this national initiative.

The prime mission of the initiative is to conserve scientifically validated traditional practices, and instil confidence in citizens regarding the scientific values of our traditional knowledge/practices.

We invite the suggestions of academicians, researchers, subject-matter experts, students, NGOs, and the public on how to instil confidence in society about our traditional knowledge and practices. This will help us in our mission to inculcate a scientific temper and instil confidence in citizens by stimulating the Science-Scientist-Society connect towards our traditional knowledge and practices.

प्रणाम करना या चरण स्पर्श हमारी संस्कृति की सबसे बड़ी पहचान है और वो अब धीरे धीरे अपना प्रचलन खो रही है।हमारे नौजवान युवा पीढ़ी में इसकी रुचि अब कम है और इसका सबसे बड़ा कारण यह है कि हमने अपने परिवारों में इसकी ठीक से जानकारी नहीं दी है। आधुनिक परिवारों में अब यह प्रचलन खत्म सा हो गया है। इस संस्कृति की महत्वपूर्णता को समझना और समझाना जरूरी है। वास्तव मैं जब हम हमारे हाथ की उंगलियों से बुजुर्गो या बड़ो के चरणों को स्पर्श करते है तो उन चरणों से vibes निकलती है और हमारे उंगलियों के द्वारा हमारे शरीर में प्रवेश करती है। इस संस्कार के द्वारा हमें अभुत्वपूर्व लाभ मिलता है

Surgeries and other treatment methods mentioned in our Ancient Texts & known by many Indigenous practitioners which are not widely used today should be implemented from minor treatment level & then slowly and gradually to higher level like complicated surgeries in big hospitals; so that after many success cases, the confidence of public rises and they start opting for indigenous treatment at mass level. Also, Scientific Research documents which validate ancient treatment methods should be publicised at mass level.

पारद से स्वर्ण बनाने में निपुण थे, हमारे पूर्वज। हमारे परदादा गुरु ब्रह्मानन्द सरस्वती जी जिनको कि भारत में "वेदांत अवतार, सत्य के अवतार" कह भी बोला जाता। भारत के राष्ट्रपति राजेंद्र प्रसाद जी से जब मिलने जाते थे तो अम्बेसडर कार की डिग्गी भर स्वर्ण भारत सरकार को दे आते थे।संशय यही है की इसी कारण उनको भी 21तोपों की सलामी दिलवाई जाती थी,तत्कालीन भारतीय शासन द्वारा।

Believe in yourself raises confidence in every human being. Every one has great potential but we ignore it with our ignorance towards us.
Do listen others success stories learn out of it and make your own success stories. Raise your confidence and start believing and recalling your own achievements.
involving in Social Work & community services will definitely raise your confidence. Never be judgemental about others. Arise, Awake & stop not till the goal is achieved. Be clear about your goals in life. Success will
come in your life.
It is never late start believing in yourself from today and start working on your goal in life.
I started working & motivating volunteers from different colleges in Delhi University to raise National Service Scheme under UGC programme with Ministry of Education in 1968-69. Today we find 40 lakhs new volunteers from all over Indian Universities.
Still at this age of 77yrs I keep myself
busy in motivating youths to work for building. a great Nation.
