Ancient Healing Practices and Modern Psychology: Exploring Mind, Body, and Environment.

Dr. Amrita Sharma

This special session explores the intersection of Ayurveda, therapeutic sound, and the mind-body connection, highlighting their roles in healing, mental well-being, and sustainable healthcare practices. Speakers will discuss how Ayurvedic principles guide disease prevention and holistic health, while therapeutic sound techniques, including mantra healing and vibrational therapy, influence cognitive and emotional states. The sessions will also examine scientific perspectives on consciousness, neurophysiology, and self-regulation, bridging traditional wisdom with modern research. Through this dialogue, we aim to uncover practical applications of integrative healing methods for addressing contemporary health challenges.

How to Reach IIT Mandi

Confluence of Indian Knowledge System and Neuroscience

IIT Mandi

From time immemorial, the notion of ‘Mind’ has tinkered the philosophers and scientists. The ancient Indian philosophies understood the Mind and explained the processes to understand life. Contrary to this, modern neuroscience has progressed significantly in explaining the brain, its components, structural and functional connectivities and processes. Still the enigma called “MIND’ and its deeper questions remain. Does Neuroscience map with the older models evolving from the Indian Knowledge Systems? Is there a continuity in the knowledge about Mind, Brain and behaviour, from past to future? This special session is aimed at unraveling the attempts to reveal the link, interface and questions between the rich Indian knowledge systems that addressed ‘Mind’ and the state of the art neuroscience.
