Dear All,
-- Happy Morning.
We are extremely happy that the research works of Dr. Subhash Sharma, Advisory Board Member-MTC Global and a noted management guru has been quoted in a Supreme Court judgement. It is difficult to differentiate amongst science, Vigyan and Gyan. But his research work brings forth clarity in the concept. MTCians can share their further views on the subject.
Also request Dr. Subhash Sharma to clarify any views expressed by MTCians.
Best Regards,
BND

Maharshi Mahesh Yogi Vedic Vishwavidyalaya Vs. State of M.P. & Ors.
[Civil Appeal No.6736 of 2004]
Fakkir Mohamed Ibrahim Kalifulla, J.
1.This appeal is directed against the Division Bench decision of the High Court of Madhya Pradesh at
Jabalpur, dated 20.03.2002, in W.P.No.1065 of 2001, in and by which, the Division Bench allowed the
writ petition in part. The challenge in the writ petition was to the amendment introduced to Sections
2, 4, 9 and 17, as well as insertion of Sections 31-A, 31-B, 31- C, 37-A, 37-B to the Maharshi Mahesh
Yogi Vedic Vishwavidyalaya Adhiniyam, 1995 (Act No.37 of 1995), hereinafter referred to as "1995
Act".The amendment was by way of Amendment Act No.5 of 2000, hereinafter called the "Amendment Act".
….
15. When we attempt to understand the intricacies of Vedas, which as stated by us earlier has been
dealt with by the Division Bench in several pages in the opening part of its judgment, we also wish to
make a reference to the meaning of the expression "Gyan Vigyan", as has been expressed by Dr.Subash
Sharma, Dean of Indian Business Academy, Noida in his article "From Newton to Nirvana: Science, Vigyan
and Gyan". A reading of the said note on "Gyan Vigyan" by the author really gives a clear picture about
the said concept. We feel that it is worthwhile to make a brief reference to what has been attempted to
be explained by the said author. Acccording to the writer, "Gyan Vigyan" can be analyzed in two
ways,viz., Vishesh Gyan and Vishya Gyan.
The world science has linkages with senses and hence, scientific knowledge has got its roots in senses.
He would state that the traditional knowledge gets legitimacy only if it can be tested on the basis of
objectivity, through the senses. He would elaborate his idea by stating that while science relies on
senses, Vigyan i.e. Vishesh Gyan, can be acquired through 'mind'. Therefore, Vigyan is more than
science as 'mind' is more than senses. He would conclude his analysis by saying that 'Gyan' both in
terms of its metaphysical and spiritual meaning, is acquired through 'consciousness' and that it is
more than Vigyan as 'consciousness' is more than 'mind'. If the analysis made by the writer is
understood, it can be held that if one represents senses, mind and consciousness in terms of three
concentric circles, we may observe that radius of consciousness is larger than the radius of the mind
and radius of mind is larger than the radius of the senses.
16. He would therefore, conclude by saying that just as senses, mind and consciousness are
interconnected, the three circles of science, Vigyan and Gyan are also interconnected. It can therefore
be safely stated that "Gyan Vigyan" would be nothing but a systematic study of science through
senses,by applying one's mind with absolute consciousness.
….
77. It will have to be stated that the expression Gyan-Vigyan was specifically mentioned in Section
4(1), not merely to make a scientific study of what is contained in Vedas, as even such a study may not
fulfill the purpose for which the University was created. When we think aloud as to what would happen
if a scientific study exclusively about Vedas is made, we wonder whether for that purpose a creation of
a University would have been necessitated. On the other hand, it is the other way around, in as much as
Vedas contains very many scientific subjects such as, mathematics, study about atoms, human anatomy and
physiology and other formulae. At this juncture, the inclusion of the expression "Gyan-Vigyan", will
have to be understood to have been inserted with a view to study modern science and technology as it
exists and study the same in consonance with the basic principles contained in Vedas and puranas.
In fact, such an approach, while reading the provisions in our considered opinion, would be the proper
way of reading the said provisions and not as contended by the learned counsel for the State that the
study of Gyan-Vigyan should be exclusively for the purpose of understanding Vedas and Vedic principles.
We have earlier explained what is "Gyan Vigyan" by making reference to an Article "From Newton to
Nirvana: Science, Vigyan and Gyan" by Dr.Subash Sharma, Dean of Indian Business Academy, Noida. Based
on the said Article, we have noted that Gyan Vigyan is nothing but a systematic study of science
through senses by applying one's mind with absolute consciousness.
If it is the meaning to be attributed to the expression "Gyan Vigyan", it will have to be held that the
said expression used in Section 4(1) cannot be restricted to a mere study on Vedas and its practices.
Such a narrow interpretation will be doing violence to the whole concept of Gyan Vigyan, which as
explained by Dr. Subash Sharma, is the combination of human senses, mind and consciousness, which
should be applied to every aspect of human life, which would include all other academic subjects viz.,
science, mathematics, philosophy, management, etc.
