Indic Knowledge Traditions contain enormous knowledge about both Vedic and Loukik (worldly) realms of life. Today, even though the streams of modern science have taken precedence in almost all matters of worldly life, the loukika śāstras from ancient Indian knowledge database give truly worthwhile insights into human lives. Arthaśāstra of Kauṭilya and Kāmasūtra of Vātsyāyana are two of the major treatises of loukika śāstras, presently available to us. This course is designed to give a proper reading and understanding of these texts, enabling student-access to the above-mentioned knowledge content.
