Conference Highlights :12th International Conference on Happiness and Well-Being amidst Polycrisis: Insights from Indian Knowledge Systems



The International Conference on "Happiness and Well-Being amidst Polycrisis: Insights from Indian Knowledge Systems" examines how Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) address today’s global crises—environmental, economic, social, and psychological—that collectively form a "polycrisis." With insights from the Vedas, Upnishads, Bhagavad Gita, Yoga, Ayurveda, ancient education, and legal systems, IKS offers holistic approaches to foster resilience, well-being, and happiness.
These teachings emphasize balanced growth, uniting physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions to enhance resilience and peace. Key IKS contributions include Yoga for physical and mental strength, Ayurveda for holistic health, and Vedanta for self-awareness. The ancient Indian education system integrated intellectual and spiritual growth, while traditional legal principles promoted justice and social harmony. Moreover, sustainable agricultural practices rooted in IKS support environmental balance and community welfare.
In simple terms, Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) provide lasting tools to handle complex crises, building modern well-being on proven, practical wisdom from the past."May all be happy, may all be free from illness, may all experience auspiciousness, and may no one suffer."
Mahaupanishad, Chapter 6, Verse 71"The whole world is but one family."
