As pointed out by Rex Galilae:
The Kerala school of math didn't invent calculus. They just solved some very specific problems that were later solved using calculus by people like MacLaurin and Taylor. While fantastic achievements in their own right, they were ad hoc solutions and NOT comparable to the seminal work by Newton.
As pointed out by Dani Sir:
While performing arithmetic operations with n digit numbers is no serious mathematics, there are longstanding problems about numbers, such as the Goldbach conjecture for instance, which have been subject of serious study.

    Thanks a lot Pranav for bringing out this lovely video on a topic that has been close to my heart. It is over a quarter century since I wrote my earliest articles debunking the so-called Vedic Mathematics. Though I did follow up the theme at various times, through articles and talks, and there have indeed been other sane voices serving the cause, unfortunately the false belief about the tricks being "Vedic" and the exaggerated sense of their usefulness has persisted, and has even evolved into an industry of sorts. In this context your video comes as a breath of fresh air. I am very happy to see that you present the topic in a very nuanced manner, with persuasive reasoning rather than recourse to polemics. I am also enthralled by the body language you contribute towards making the viewer understand the truth behind the myth of "Vedic Mathematics". Here are a couple things I would like to add by way of comments in the context of the video. You mentioned in the video the name of Professor K. S. Shukla as a mathematician who challenged Swamiji, in person, on his claims of Vedic origin of his so called sutras. I would like to add here that Prof. Shukla has in fact been a doyen, specifically in the field of history of ancient and medieval Indian mathematics, with many crucial research findings and expositions to his credit. An important one, and my favourite, is his discovery of the original mathematician, named Jayadeva, from around the 10th century, to have found the Chakravala method for finding integer solutions of certain equations, which has been recognized as a masterpiece in mathematics. In 2018 we celebrated the centenary anniversary of Prof. Shukla, and in addition to the benefits from various events that were organized, there has been a lasting outcome in the form of a volume, with over 700 pages, consisting of selected articles of Prof. Shukla on Indian mathematics and astronomy (Edited by Aditya Kolachana, K. Mahesh and K. Ramasubramanian, published by the Hinduastan Book Agency). Another point I would like to mention is about the 16 "sutras", that you have already discussed at some length in the video. The Sanskrit of the so called sutras is of course not Vedic. More specifically they are simply phrases (not even full sentences) concocted for the purpose of remembering the individual tricks, AFTER the tricks were acquired. Thus the pages of description that you have mentioned are not devoted to interpreting the "sutras", but rather the latter are a sort of longish titles for the tricks described.

My video wouldn't even exist and most of us would be in the dark regarding the validity of "Vedic" Mathematics, if it weren't for your research. While going through your paper I saw the amount of painstaking research you've done for the same. And like Newton once said, we all stand on the shoulder of the giant that is you :) I shall make an updated video where I add the changes and emphases you've mentioned. I'm also planning a video on the genuine mathematical achievements of India's past

    I am a student at the Indian Statitical Institute and I would like to make a slight correction at 11:05 where you talked about the achievements made by the Kerala school of mathematics. Based on the screenshot of the Wikipedia page which is being displayed, it would be a slight overstatement to say that they literally invented calculus even before Newton or Leibnitz. The thing is that Calculus, which stands entirely on the shoulders of Real Analysis, was developed by Newton (and others) so that they could solve real life problems rigorously with the help of mathematics. So basically all the real life problems which we can now solve quite easily using Calculus were not so easy to solve back when the foundations of Calculus had not yet been set up. The Kerala school of mathematics was able to obtain several well known results of Calculus (like the Taylor series expansions), but they did not develop the rigorous structure of Calculus, and hence they were only able to check the validity of the results that they obtained to some extent, but not make a concrete block out of it. To put it in simpler words, they had the intuition in hand (which is mind blowing and more than commendable), but could not provide a solid framework, and this is exactly what Newton and Lebnitz did. they created the entire framework of the subject in a formal manner because of which they are credited.

    While you are correct that the "Medieval Indian Calculus" is not to that level, but it was not so even for Newton and Leibnitz. Calculus, as taught today, is a much refined version. Please don't misunderstand me, I am sort of agreeing with your PoV and disagreeing at the same time. I would also agree that there is NO EVIDENCE of any Indian mathematician inventing calculus along the lines we study it today, but they had amazing accurate calculus based results. Please note that even this info was not available a few decades back. So may be it was not intuition (like Ramanujan's), but a framework, may be rudimentary, which has not yet been deciphered or the few direct sources have been lost. It does points in the direction of a big probability that a discovery of a calculus framework may happen. It is a shame that the government puts hardly any money in research compared to Vishwaguru dreams.

    Because one doesn't have enough formulations directly available. Even if some verses might be having it, they are still yet to be interpreted as Formulae for those advanced concepts. Take an example of Surya Siddhanta. We know we had maths that could calculate the time for rotation around axis and various distances. All the book mentions is then values derived from those formulations, but not the formula itself. That's the problem with this vedic maths, when more than 90% of manuscripts were missing.

    There is something to the examples of the class 96 X 97. It is a combination of modular arithmetics and distributive property. You can write above as (100-4)*(100-3), which is equal to 100X100 -400 -300 -4X(-3). 100X100 -400 -300 = 9300 = 9600-300 = 9700 - 400. And -4X(-3) = 12; thus 9300+12 = 9312

    let generalize a little bit. Instead of 96, 97 let's have number 9b ( or 90+b), and 9c (or 90+c) b, c are single digits. The mod100 of the additive inverse of 90+b = 10-b and the additive inverse of 90+c = 10-c. When you are adding the -4 or the -3, you are actually doing 100*[(9X10)+b - (10-c)] which is equal to [90+b+c-10]X100 = 100*[(9X10)+c -(10-b)] = [90+b+c-10]X100. With b = 6 and c=7, the latter will give you 9300; (10-b)*(10-c) = 4X3= 12. And thus 9312. You can also expand (100-(10-b))X(100-(10-c)) = 8000+100b+100c + [(10-b)X(10-c)] which expands to 9300 + 12

    "Science is Dope", your video is very good indeed. But problem is that many people from India take things very personally and feel hurt whenever anyone criticizes anything do with their culture. Also another problem when discussing mathematics is that many people do not have a clear understanding of what constitutes higher level mathematics. It is not uncommon to see someone with a Masters degree talking as though they they are experts and in some cases there are even high schoolers and college graduates believing that their 99/100 score in college exams reflects mathematical genius! The best of the world's mathematicians are very humble about what they know (although they know a lot) and on the other hand the students with half-knowledge are the ones shouting from the rooftops about how much they know.

It describe clear methods of knowing our true self. This channel is " Woke " and " Hinduphobic". Clearly, a western perspective of Dharmic traditions.

But sanskrit was only developed after the fall of indus valley around 1500 BCE. The indus valley used pictogram and not Sanskrit. So it could only be composed after 1500 BCE. If you still refute prove vedas was told in 10000 years ago.

    @Gaurav Srivastava 1) No civilization can be entirely urban. You need farmland to feed people. That is definitely rural. The later ones also have urban centres and rural areas 2) Why would people hide messages? Why would a salesman records be cryptic? 3) Ravana didn't exist. 4) No one is obsessed with the west. Politicians care not academicians. Modern academician are only concerned with the truth. You claim them to be bible. Bible says earth was created in 4004 BCE. Western scientists claim the earth to be millions of years old, directly contradicting bible. 5) You claim a lot of things without a single bit of proof. They claim a lot of things and for most of it which they have overwhelming evidence. 6) You still haven't answered how muslims could conquor technologically advanced civilization.

    I guess that you have the idea as vedic maths was mentioned in the Vedas .. it is false.. vedic maths just implies the maths used by the people during the days the Vedas were being written and being spread.. those days nobody has separate subjects or their names.. they used astronomy , mathematics , science , medicine etc in their day to day life ... the name vedic maths was given after the modern era people found those sutras and shlokas from the period of Vedas and given it that name.. and these mathematics shlokas were claimed to be developed around 5000yrs before or even more when the present countries were not even formed or named as such.. but those writings and all were preserved in some places .. and these places are around india srilanka , Pakistan china who were all once the part of mahabharat in ancient times... and hence now are being claimed by the Indians .. the knowledge which was used all over the world has been leftover by other countries while india preserved the knowledge and keeps following it.. thus our country has the right to claim it while others just threw the knowledge away

These tricks were being sensationalized to me and distracting me from just sitting down with learning mathematics in general, because they create a false dichotomy between themselves and any approach one could take to mental calculations, and they don't cover all situations so treating them like special ancient fix all magic might certainly stunt ones learning progress.

Sootras are for making it easy to REMEMBER a topic and not to make reader understand whole topic with a line.. that's ridiculous.. 8:50 agreed, but the tricks are meant to solve question quickly and that's the whole point. for example in competitive exams nobody asks you to write a paragraph on gravitation right? what you are saying makes sense, but only if taken out of context.

    '10:15 THE BOOK WAS WRITTEN IN 20th CENTURY WHAT'S YOUR POINT!' This is his point. The main contention of the video is to debunk that the tricks are sourced from ancient Vedic texts as is falsely claimed by the author, so that they can be examined without this extra layer of mystique, because it's not earned and that makes the thing pretentious. As a testament to this, most of the youtube videos I've found showing the trick at the start of this video, NEVER bother to explain its limitations, which one could conceive is due to the pride that they hold in it as being 'ancient'. Their feeling perhaps being that explaining its limitations might demote something sacred or holy. The trick is actually quite a bit more useful when you do understand its limitations, because then you're more aware of when to apply it, but the pretension surrounding it misguides how people teach it. This is not ideal. They are good tricks, they're just not ancient my dude. The rest of the points you're addressing are not very central to the main contention. As for context, well the whole point of the video IS context, in that the source is being disputed. That is a very important aspect of context no?

    Its just a label for 'speedy mental maths' that describes an algebraic way of doing arithmetical calculations. Fun to learn as a kid at primary school to excel at arithmetic and then to understand 'why these tricks work' in high school when one is learning algebra. There are anecdotal stories of British engineers being out calculated by street urchins in India which hints at a strong tradition in India for teaching computational arithmetic with a playful effortless approach to crunching numbers in their head just for the sake of it.

    Prof. Raju’s expertise and knowledge of the history of Indian mathematics is of the highest standard. He points out that India has a brilliant past with regard to the development of Maths. So much so that even now there are research programmes, for example at IIT in Mumbai, looking into the vast knowledge-base of the mathematics of Kerala spanning nearly a 1,000 years. But the history of Maths is not what Vedic Maths is about at all. These sutras of Tirtha ji reveal the real deal; they show the principles and laws behind mathematics and mathematical activity as it happens in the present. Vedic Maths is not historical and is not about mathematical tricks. It provides deep insights into the very nature of the subject and the human psyche. Neither is it exclusive. Although Tirthaji sets out alternative methods for some topics, he does not exclude more widely known methods. Rather it expresses underlying laws and mental patterns of all methods. It provides us with an entirely new orientation - one that humanises mathematics, thereby reducing fear of numbers and mathematical concepts. By James Glover

    Agreed that for some strange reason, Swamiji was not very vocal about his naming a set of methods he had devised on his own to solve elementary mathematical or rather arithmetical problems with ease, speed and accuracy. Whatever the truth, we have to accept the fact that Swamiji definitely devised methods on his own. Suppose a student wishes to square 98. In order to arrive at an answer he would multiply 98x98 or (90+8)squared or (a+b)^2 which would expand as a2+2ab+b2. Now substitute a=90 b=8 in the equation and get the answer. Quite simple, but, look at the time taken to solve it; the scope of making a mistake in multiplying and getting the wrong answer has high possibility, especially if school students are doing it. I have been a teacher of Maths in schools for a decade and more and it's my personal experience that Maths does scare the wits out of 75% of the students, and, that sir is a very large number. Among a group of 80 students if there are 20 girls only 2 or 3 girls will opt for maths and that's a very poor number. But when the same students are taught Swamiji's methods, I always was amused at how fast the students picked up Maths. They very soon tackled large sum on their own. Whether its algebra, 3D, 2D geometry, trigonometry, calculus, in the end the problem reduces to a complicated exercise in Arithmetic. It is here that the so called "Vedic Maths" tools does wonders. Squaring a π is pretty awkward but you apply Swamiji's method and you get the answer quite fast. These so called "Vedic Sutras" come extremely handy when you are tackling various competitions. These methods can be used upto B.Sc without embarassment. So young man, you can throw a lot of slush on the Swamiji, but you cannot demean the originality of his method. Have you ever tried solving the Kepler equation by employing Swamiji's methods or "tricks" if you want to call it. You will be surprised how fast the equation can be solved. Try it and you will say that I speak the truth. It's my experience that most of the time the student is able to do most calculations in his mind without scribbling on paper and getting nowhere. Try dividing 13 by 49 upto 18 decimal places and note the time you take. Now allow me to do the same but with Swamiji's "trick". I shall throw in the correct answer upto 8 places of decimal well within one minute flat! And I can write the answer left to right or from right to left with equal ease. If I have to go from left to right then I divide and if I have to go from right to left, I shall multiply and that too very fast. If I multiply then I derive the answer in 30 seconds flat!! Can you do it?? Put to use Swamiji's method and one can do wonders in working out the calculations involved in problems of Trigonometry! So gentleman, instead of cursing the old man and taking jibes at him, let us benefit from his methods. You do not wish to call it VM then don't! Call it Ancient Indian Mathemagic or any damn thing. How does it matter? A rose called by any other name will smell as sweet!

I know there are people among Muslims who like to get some kind of numbers and stuff from Quran and relate them to different observations in science. Same with Christianity. I guess in all religions there are people who really think this stuff and reverse engineer it back to suit their held beliefs. Everyone knows about the original of decimal system and zero from India and that Algebra was invented by an Arab and Calculus by Newton. I would love to see a video about the things you mentioned like the Pythagoras theorem and possibly Calculus coming from India. I am ignorant of those tales. Thanks

    I really studied aryabhatiya(not fully tho) and found that we had a strong mathematical history. I found that Sutra for finding the square root which was really convenient (before I found the approximation thing through calculus). Even the concept that the earth's axis rotates is crudely understood (remember that this was when the world thought the earth was flat) The real achievements of Indian mathematics are always given a backseat either by "political hindus" and "urban naxals". I'm surprised as to how the method of using sounds to represent a string of numbers, done in Indian textbooks like aryabhatiya, brihat samhita etc. is forgotten. I've recently started using it to remember phone numbers and it works. The other thing of combining mathematics with arts like poetry, atleast for children, is totally lost. Let us recognise the real contributions and not the hearsay. This is a really touchy subject for me as my heart wants this to be true(as i have the highest respect for the shringeri peetam) and my mind straight away rejects it(Vedas were written when even sines and cosines were hardly understood). You have really handled this topic well.

    I have watched this video pretty late xD, I really hope you read this. Here is something I want to say. India has a past filled with glory in any field and as you rightly pointed out, there is a void in understanding what was awesome. It is true that what is being called Vedic Mathematics, cannot be applied in all situations because there can exist infinite possibilities of such combinations. You also brought up the fact that how Vedic maths is actually not from the Vedas. But here is what I think(Lets not call it "Vedic", but lets give some name "xyz"). Xyz can be perceived as techniques that can be used to certain things or certain calculations to make it easier. Such techniques have a positive impact on how the brain functions and how it gets accustomed to go about around numbers. yes, obviously the standard methods and understanding the true math is another beauty, but I see this more as a 'mind sharpening tool' because I have seen real life transformation in people. Well, I am not telling that their life has entirely changed or something, but it definitely creates an impact on the quickness of an individual. Being extremely sharp. I have seen these changes in lots of people as well as in myself, hence this thought. In my opinion, what is now called as Vedic Math cannot be said as something that is useless. it holds value in other aspects. But ik the point of this video was to show how Vedic math is actually not from the Vedas or rather derived from them and I understand that.
