Discover how the Puranas offer deep insights into the history and geography of ancient Bharat Varsha with Sri Hari Vithal Ji in Shri Bhuwwaneshvari’s Purana Katha Series. Learn how these ancient texts can empower young minds through Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) and inspire a deeper connection to our heritage.
Namaste! Welcome to Shri Bhuwwaneshvari’s Purana Katha Series, where we explore the timeless wisdom of the Puranas and their relevance in today’s world. Through this series, guided by esteemed scholars, researchers, and Shastra experts, we uncover the profound dimensions of these ancient texts.
In this special session, we are excited to feature Sri Hari Vithal Ji, a passionate young scholar dedicated to empowering young minds through the lens of Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS). His lecture, “Puranas as a Source of Historical and Geographical Knowledge,” offers a fresh perspective on the Puranas, not just as mythological narratives but as invaluable repositories of history and geography.
While the Puranas are often regarded as collections of divine stories, they also contain extensive information on ancient Bharat Varsha’s history, geography, and cultural heritage. They document royal genealogies, societal structures, and geographic details with remarkable precision. Sri Hari Vithal Ji will highlight how these texts serve as authentic sources for understanding India’s civilizational past.
In an era where India’s history is often viewed through external lenses, the Puranas provide a native perspective rooted in authenticity and continuity. Understanding these dimensions fosters a sense of pride, identity, and connection with our heritage. It also enables us to view ancient texts not merely as religious works but as treasures of historical and geographic knowledge.
