Description
Foundations of Indian Knowledge System and Governance provides a broad introduction to the sources, concepts, and contemporary relevance of Indian Knowledge System for public life and institutional governance. It presents IKS as a plural knowledge tradition encompassing philosophy, ethics, education, law, ecology, medicine, language, logic, mathematics, community life, and public conduct rather than as a narrow historical or religious category.
The book explains the sources of IKS, the Indian view of society and public life, classical ideas of governance, and the relationship between knowledge, ethics, and decision-making. It places concepts such as dharma, rajadharma, nyaya, lokahit, yogakshema, ahimsa, aparigraha, and viveka in dialogue with contemporary governance and NEP 2020. Its balanced approach emphasises critical interpretation, constitutional values, scientific reasoning, sustainability, and policy relevance.
The book is intended as an academic, educational, and policy-discussion resource. It should not be treated as official government policy, legal advice, administrative instruction, clinical guidance, or a substitute for authoritative statutory and institutional documents. Readers should consult current official sources wherever formal interpretation or implementation is required.
