Vedic Mathematics

My first impression while writing about this topic was Vedic mathematics must be maths used during vedic period ....I think many will have such impression when u just read the topic...

But...........

VEDIC MATHEMATICS  is a book written by Indian monk Jagadguru Swami Sri Bharati Krishna Tirtha Sankaracarya of Govardhan Matha, Puri.

● His vast and versatile learning, his spiritual and educational attainments, his wonderful research achievements in the field of Vedic mathematics and his consecration of all these qualifications to the service of humanity as such. 

● His Holiness, better known among his disciples by the beloved name 'Jagadguru ' or ' Gurudev' , was born of highly learned and pious parent in March, 1884.

● Jagadguru, named as Venkatraman in his early days, was an exceptionally brilliant student and invariably won the first place in all the subjects throughout his educational career. He was awarded the title of ' SARASWATI' by the Madras sanskrit association in July, 1899.

● His public life under the guidance of late Hon'ble Sri Gopal krishna Gokhale , C.I.E in 1905 in connection with the National education Movement and the South African Indian issue. 

● His inclination towards Vedas was very much and the definition of Veda given by Sri Swami ji is.

" The very word 'VEDA' has this derivational meaning I.e. the FOUNTAINHEAD and ILLIMITABLE store house of all the knowledge "

VEDAS:

The vedas are wellknown as four in number 

1. Rigveda 

2. Samaveda 

3. Yajurveda 

4. Atharvaveda 

And have four Upavedas and the Six Vedangas.
