Vedic Math
Vedic Mathematics is the name given to a supposedly ancient system of calculation which was “rediscovered” from the Vedas ( Atharva Veda ) between 1911 and 1918.Vedic Mathematics is the collective name given to a set of sixteen mathematical sutras as discovered by Jagadguru Swami Sri Bharti Krishna Tirthaji Maharaj.
Each Formula deals with a different branch of Mathematics. Complex mathematical questions can be solved in few steps or some time without an intermediate step. And these steps are so simple that even people with an average knowledge of mathematics can easily understand them.

- Q1: Why Vedic maths?
- Ans:Vedic mathematics simplifies the four basic mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication and Division. This will reduce the time to solve a mathematical problem, especially in examination halls.
- Q2: To whom vedic mathematics is beneficial?
- Ans: Students, Competitive exam aspirants, teachers, Executives, Bussiness man, Professionals and even Parents.
- Q3: How does knowledge in vedic math help a student to minimize careless mistakes?
- Ans: The student can not go wrong as it has inbuilt system of series of checks. Failure is not an option in vedic Mathematics. Hence vedic mathematics helps to boost the confidence of the student and bring out true potential in them.
- Q4: How it makes the calculation faster?
- Ans: Most of the calculation in Vedic mathematics are based on left to right and our brain also reads in left to right, Which automatically speeds up the calculation.
- Q5: Is Vedic mathematics accepted worldwide?
- Ans: Yes, even some British mathematicians, including Kenneth Williams, Andrew Nicholas and Jeremy Pickles took interest in this new system. They extended the introductory material of Bharti Krishna Tirtha book, and delivered lectures on it in London.
-
In 1981, this was collated into a book entitled Introductory Lectures on Vedic Mathematics. A few successive trips to India by Andrew Nicholas between 1981 and 1987, renewed the interest on vedic math, and scholars and teachers in India started taking it seriously.
