Social Values Expressed in Atharvaveda and Developed Indian Society of 2047 (Some Sociological Observations)

A year will have passed since the practical implementation of the New Education Policy. The youth should be introduced to the Indian knowledge tradition in college level courses. For that purpose, it has been made mandatory to teach the Indian knowledge tradition as a paper in college level courses of all disciplines. What is the purpose of teaching the Indian knowledge system to the youth in the New Education Policy? The basic purpose behind teaching this matter as a subject is that when today's youth join formal education and study modern subjects like mathematics, science, engineering, sociology, psychology, economics, they constantly read and hear that all these systems have developed in other countries, especially England-Western countries. They have their origins. In India, there was none of these. That is why, whether we study economics or engineering, psychology or mathematics, only foreigners are mentioned among its experts. We have to study Robertson, Newton, Pablo Picasso. There was nothing to memorize their definitions in India. Nothing was even invented! All our modern systems have come from abroad! If the Indian knowledge tradition and Indian systems are taught against this feeling arising in the mind of the student, then only he will also realize that the country was running when these foreign systems did not exist! What kind of financial system did India have when there was no modern banking and cheques? When there were no engineering colleges in India, on the basis of what knowledge were these temples and mohallas built? India was a leading country in astronomy and India had knowledge of the motion of planets, constellations and their relative effects, so what was that knowledge? Where were the instruments to measure the motion of stars and planets? In short, the main purpose of teaching the Indian knowledge tradition is not to impart religious or sectarian knowledge. It is to impart Indian knowledge! This paper is not about teaching fictional plays or novels! If a student wants to study Indian economics, he should study Indian economic ideology and the structure of the traditional Indian economy! With such a proud heritage at the centre, the following is a discussion of what social values are important for realizing the dream of a developed India.
