The Division of Vedic Science and Consciousness Research is envisioned as an interdisciplinary hub dedicated to bridging the profound insights of Vedic sciences with the empirical frameworks of modern scientific inquiry. Drawing from the  cosmological, metaphysical, psychological, scientific and ontological dimensions enshrined in the Vedas, Upanishads, and allied Darśanas, the center seeks to reorient scientific exploration through the lens of Vedic thought.

Its core objectives include:

• Exploring the interface between Vedic metaphysics and modern physics, particularly in areas such as quantum mechanics, particle theory, and cosmology, by revisiting concepts like ṛta (cosmic order), ākāśa (space), manas (mind), and puruṣa (consciousness principle).

• Investigating consciousness as the substratum of reality as presented in Vedic and Upanishadic teachings, offering a structured alternative to materialist and reductionist paradigms in contemporary neuroscience and psychology.

• Studying the cosmological models of the Vedas, including their cyclical understanding of time (kāla), the layered structure of the cosmos (lokas), and the role of īśvara as intelligent governor of creation, in comparison with modern astrophysical models.

• Developing interdisciplinary dialogues between Ṛṣi-based intuitive knowledge systems and modern scientific methodology, thereby identifying and addressing conceptual 'missing links' or blind spots in contemporary science.

• Reviving Vedic perspectives on mental health, perception, and cognition through texts like the Yoga Sūtras, Sāṅkhya Sūtras and Brāhmaṇa literature, and aligning them with fields such as cognitive science, consciousness studies, and transpersonal psychology.

• Hosting conferences, symposia, and collaborative research to integrate Vedic insights into evolving domains like AI ethics, environmental science, quantum biology, and holistic medicine.

By integrating the experiential wisdom of ancient seers with the investigative tools of modern science, the Center aspires to address unanswered questions in contemporary disciplines and contribute to a more holistic, spiritually grounded scientific worldview.
