Vedas and Knowledge of our Ancestors: True origin of microbiology.

India is treasure of traditional Knowledge which has been disseminated through non-institutional means from generation to generation and is, for the most part, undocumented. However, the knowledge about microbial world by Indian Rishis presented in Sanskrit Shlokas or Suktas of our traditional manuscripts such as Vedas remained unseen. Before the invention of microscope modern science had little knowledge about the microbial biodiversity which is very clearly Presented in Vedas and Gita. All the above discussions in Vedas and Gita Proves that, the Science of microbiology is of Indian origin. Thousands of years ago Vedas are the first Book that revealed the existence of microscopic forms of life. Not only this, the Vedas are also the Source of microbiological Protocols that was followed by the Vedic Persons Since ages. The Karma Kanda & medicinal Knowledge of Vedas are very significant in the eyes of Microbiology as one of the Purposes of these, were to Control the diseases produced by microbes and other non-microbial diseases. In this and other many facts the Present history of microbiology demands amendment.

The purpose behind the presentation of the paper is to present microbiological scenario as depicted in the ancient Sanskrit text. Vedic microbiology encompasses that Science of microorganism, which is given in the ancient Vedic scientific texts. A new branch of Vedic sciences and that of microbiology that I would like to introduce.
