A brief introduction to those involved in Vedic Mathematics
|
Sri
Bharati Krsna Tirthaji (1884-1960)
Jagadguru Sankaracarya Sri Bharati Krsna Tirtha Maharaja
was the the Sankaracarya (major religious leader) of Govardhana
Matha Puri. He is said to have reconstructed the ancient system
of Vedic Mathematics from certain Sanskrit texts. All that is
left of his work was an introductory text to the subject called
Vedic Mathematics. This book has generally been the starting point
for all work on Vedic Mathematics since.
|
The
current head of Govardhan Monastery His Holiness Jagadguru Swami Sri
Nischalananda Saraswatiji is an eminent Mathematician himself and has
authored over three books on Vedic Mathematics which are Ankapadiyam,
Swastik Ganit and Ganita Darshan . Swamiji will reconstruct the lost
volumes of the Vedic Math Texts written by Bharati Krishnaji in two
years after his lengthy and painstaking research on the subject and
plans to name it Vedikarsh Ganit'.
