*Prerequisite: Graduation in any area of knowledge. Sanskrit/Vedic Texts, Philosophy, or Psychology will be a preferred base to understand the course.*

This is a 3-unit course. The word ‘Veda’ means knowledge; hence primarily they are a chief source of Indian religion and culture along with the roots of various studies such as Medicine, Astronomy, Philosophy, Botany, Social Sciences, Fine Arts, among others, that are easily traceable in the Vedic literature. Vedic seers expressed their divine experiences and vision of truth in Vedas; so, this holds unique significance for the entire mankind. In present times, Art of Living is very popular, and people are rushing towards it to live life according to some pre-defined principles of life but many of us are hardly aware that these principles are well spoken or written by great Vedic sages in our ancient scriptures. We all have forgotten that ‘Personality Development’ is the development process to enhance one’s personality and attitude through organized thought and behavior patterns that make up a person's unique personality emerge over time. All this is systematically inherited by us, as these are deeply rooted in our ancient Indian traditions.

The Science of Kriyayoga class explores the understanding of the self and the surrounding environment by first establishing and practicing connections between the body and mind. The course content includes an explanation of objective and practical science and examines the role of the mind in creating this essential field of study. 

Students are introduced to basic scientific concepts, such as the nervous system, respiration, photosynthesis, physical and natural forces, atomic and molecular structure, and the coordinated function of cells. This information is then used to build an understanding of yoga as a practice, focusing on different body postures and breathing techniques. This practice evolves into lessons on connecting with others, including animals, plants, and the environment.

The class presents examples of the holistic functioning of atoms, molecules, cells, bodies, societies, the planet, and the universe. Students are also encouraged to critically analyze scientific facts, and they are assigned tasks that require them to evaluate literature, seminars, or other published materials on relevant topics.
