Rooted in centuries of observation, reflection, and experience, ancient Indian wisdom encompasses diverse domains such as philosophy, science, education, medicine, mathematics, ecology, and social organization. In contemporary times, the relevance of this knowledge system has gained renewed attention as societies seek sustainable solutions to modern challenges related to health, environment, education, and ethical living. This research article explores the conceptual foundations of the Indian Knowledge System and examines its relevance in modern life. It highlights how ancient Indian wisdom promotes holistic thinking, emphasizing the harmony between individual well-being, social responsibility, and environmental sustainability. The study also discusses the contributions of traditional knowledge in fields such as Ayurveda, yoga, mathematics, astronomy, and ethical philosophy. Furthermore, it analyzes how these ancient insights can contribute to addressing contemporary issues such as mental health, ecological crises, and value-based education. The article argues that integrating the principles of the Indian Knowledge System with modern scientific knowledge can create a balanced framework for sustainable development and human flourishing. Understanding and revitalizing this knowledge tradition can therefore play a vital role in shaping a more ethical, harmonious, and sustainable society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Indian Knowledge System, Ancient Wisdom, Holistic Living, Traditional Knowledge, Contemporary Relevance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-ast-global-color-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>Page No: 178-186<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/178-186.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Dr. Anirban Khatua DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/03110020 Abstract: The Indian Knowledge System (IKS) represents one of the world\u2019s oldest and most comprehensive traditions of intellectual, philosophical, and practical knowledge.
