Tirthaji Portrait

Sri Bharati Krsna Tirthaji (1884-1960)

Jagadguru Sankaracarya Sri Bharati Krsna Tirtha Maharaja was the the Shankaracarya (major religious leader) of Govardhana Math Puri. He is said to have reconstructed the ancient system of Vedic Mathematics from certain Sanskrit texts. All that is left of his work is an introductory text called 'Vedic Mathematics'.

Vera's speciality is teaching young learners and those who have difficulty with understanding arithmetic. She has written her first teacher's manual "Pebble Maths" and is shown here with one of her very happy students, Ella (who went from the bottom of her class, to the top in a matter of 3 months). http://www.pebblemaths.org/
