Researchers should link ancient India’s knowledge in science, especially in the field of medicine, and with the modern technology available now for creating credible solutions to health and other scientific issues, Governor R.N. Ravi has said.
Speaking at the 28th convocation of Manonmaniam Sundaranar University here on Wednesday, Mr. Ravi said ancient Indians, through their experience, could grasp scientific ideas, especially in medicine, to find remedies. With the treatments and medicines available 3,000 years ago the people’s lifespan crossed 100 years. However, the advent of modern science diverted the attention towards a different direction, leaving behind ancient India’s knowledge untapped.
