Many ancient Indian texts, including the Vedas, Upanishads, Purana, and various philosophical treatises, contain descriptions and concepts that resonate with modern scientific discoveries, often without the empirical tools we associate with science today

Examples often cited include:

Cosmology and the cyclical nature of time: Hindu scriptures describe vast cycles of creation and destruction (Yugas, Kalpas) that span billions of years, resonating with concepts of cosmic evolution and deep time.

Atomic theory: Ancient Indian philosophers like Kanada (Vaishashika school) proposed atomic theories centuries before modern chemistry, suggesting that matter is composed of indivisible particles (anu/ parmanu).

Mathematics and astronomy: Texts like the Surya Siddhanta contain advanced astronomical calculations, including the diameter of the Earth, the distance to the moon, and complex planetary movements, derived through methods that are not explicitly “instrumental” in the modern sense but might have involved sophisticated observation, mathematical deduction, and perhaps direct intuitive insights. Aryabhata’s contributions to the heliocentric model, the concept of zero, and trigonometric functions are well-documented.

Physiology and subtle anatomy: Ayurveda and Yoga texts describe intricate systems within the body (chakras, nadis) and their influence on physical and mental well-being, which some interpret as a subtle understanding of energetic and physiological processes.

The nature of consciousness and reality: The Upanishads, in particular, delve deeply into the nature of Brahman (ultimate reality) and Atman (the individual self), positing that they are one. This philosophical exploration touches upon the fundamental nature of existence, consciousness, and bliss, which are also subjects of modern quantum physics and neuroscience from a different perspective.
