and
Yagna
are considered to be the building blocks of the divine development of
the human culture and civilization. While
Gayatri
encompasses the original knowledge
part of the existence, expansion and evolution of the cosmos,
Yagna
deals with the
corresponding domains of creativity and actions. The science and philosophy of
Gayatri
and
Yagna
were thoroughly practiced and propagated by the saints and sages of yore.
Because of their direct impact on the physical, mental and spiritual development of human
life, the principles and practices of these fundamental components of the ancient Indian
culture have relevance in the modern times too. Thanks to the dedicated efforts of some
sacred souls and eminent scholars, that the glory of the ancient knowledge and culture of
India has not lost its glow despite traversing through the dark period of misinterpretations,
aberrations and malignance during the medieval era. The noble contributions of Pt.
Shriram Sharma Acharya have been most significant in rousing the Indian Cultural values
since past few decades and implementing the practices of
Gayatri
and
Yagna
as scientific
experiments aimed at the welfare of all living beings.
