Indian mythology is intriguing and very interesting for a curious mind. Most of us, at some point, have heard and fantasized about mystical and enchanting stories derived from Indian Mythology. Likewise, ancient India's cutting-edge science and technology-driven tales derive their origins in our manuscripts/ Vedas.

If faith and belief are intact, these tales have a ray of magnificence and are packed with human lessons for a curious soul. A fascinating and queering fact we would like to highlight here is that if we go back in the books of history, we will be amazed at the times of discovery and technology dating back to ancient India. Here are some interrelations you can see between emerging science and technology and Indian Mythology.

In ancient India, there was an enormous strain of evidence suggesting the prevalence of scientific and technological knowledge, most of which were linked with the overall religious belief system. To begin with, the archaeological remains of the Indus Valley reveal the knowledge of applied sciences. In addition, some proofs exist, accentuating facts that advanced technologies like irrigation and metallurgy existed even back then.

You will be surprised to know there are research manuscripts available that suggest there is a close relationship between religion and the advancement of technological knowledge. The foremost among them being in the fields of Mathematics, Astronomy, Medicine, Physics and While on this topic, do you know decimals can be traced back to Ancient India? The earliest epigraphic evidence of using the decimal system is found in the inscriptions of Ashoka in the third century B.C. The famous mathematician Aryabhata was acquainted with it.

As much as I sound all enchanted and mesmerized with Ancient India and the existence of technology that can be traced back to our Indian Vedas, it's to be believed that most scientific endeavors were started by theologians, holy people, or people with existing Indian mythology backgrounds.

From the era starting with that of Lord Ram, there have been mentions of uran khatolas and pushpak vimaans that were deployed, which might ring a bell if you remember the gripping Sita Kidnapping tale, and don't we all remember these terms from the stories we heard from our parents and grandparents. At GART, we take inspiration from these intriguing stories and create bronze statues and other works of art that breathe life.

We cannot help but invent the concept of zero, and mythology abounds with discoveries like the Pushpaka Vimana. Ayurveda has been vividly portrayed in our scriptures. Let us be proud of our history and flaunt some trails of ancient India within our personal and work spaces, which show pride in our culture.

Belief is an inside job, and yes, with all the facts mentioned above, we still can't convince or conclude that technology was invented back in ancient India but what we can do is push our curious minds to dwell on the facts that India and mythologies have this beautiful and charming way of queering and questioning the source and the base of technologies and science as we view them. So, for example, Vedic Maths is not a myth but a base of many studies worldwide.

The ending of Mohenjodaro and the Indus Valley civilizations are not mystical tales; they have facts and visuals to support the thought processes.

Sculptures have this timeless charm; they have existed from unknown times, and their beauty grows with time. The decades might have changed the finish of the sculptures, which have their roots in Ancient India, but those natural changes that the statues have gone through add a dash of vintage look to these art pieces that accentuate their beauty further. Here we at G-Art create mythological bronze statues to recreate that emotion and era that timeless sculptures behold. 

An art we Indians master firmly rooted in our Indian Culture is a pride we intend to celebrate; At G Art, we constantly try to queer the minds of those who view our signature bronze sculptures and statues. Incidentally, no two people look at a figure with the same eye. That pushes our boundaries and helps us create many more timeless artifacts that will last you a lifetime and tell a story that you will relate to or look up to for times to come.
