ADVANTAGES OF VEDIC MATHEMATICS

• It is very original, totally unconventional and provides a new thinking and

approach .

• It encourages mental calculations. It is easy, simple, direct and straightforward.

• Maths, A dreadful subject is converted into a playful and blissful subject, which

we keep on learning with smiles on the face and joy in the heart.

• Vedic Maths enriches our knowledge and understanding of maths, which shows

clear links and continuity between different branches of maths.

• We are living in the age of competitions. Vedic Mathematics methods come to us

as a boon for all competitions. Present maths requires much effort in learning.

Vedic Maths being most natural way of working can be learnt and mastered

with very little efforts and in a very short time.

• Vedic Maths system also provides us with a set of checking procedures for

independent crosschecking of whatever we do. If you make the habit of applying

the simple and quick checks at different stages of working. We move on

confidently, and keep on smiling at every stage, after confirming the correctness

of work.

• The element of choice and flexibility at each stage keeps the mind lively and alert

and develops clarity of mind and intuition by integrated training of the two

hemispheres of brain and there by Holistic development of the human brain

automatically takes place through Vedic Mathematics multidimensional

thinking.

• Vedic Mathematics system at a very subtle level helps us in development of the

spiritual part of personality.

THE VEDIC MATHEMATICS - SUTRAS

Sutras: The Natural Formula

In Sanskrit, the ancient language of India, the word Sutra means "Thread of

Knowledge". In English we have the word Suture from Sutra and Suture is the thread

used for stitching wounds together. So each rule is a thread of knowledge and the

whole subject is based on these sutras.

The system is based on 16 Vedic Main-Sutras together with 13 Sub-Sutras which are

actually word formulae describing natural ways of solving a whole range of

mathematical problems. These are 16 one-line formulae originally written in Sanskrit,

which can be easily memorized, enable one to solve long mathematical problems

quickly.

• The Sutras (aphorisms) apply to and cover each and every part of each and

every chapter of each and every branch of mathematics (including Arithmetic,

Algebra, Geometry – plane and solid, Trigonometry – plane and spherical,

Conics – geometrical and analytical, Astronomy, Calculus – differential and

integral etc.) In fact, there is no part of mathematics, pure or applied, that is

beyond their jurisdiction.

• The Sutras are easy to understand, easy to apply and easy to remember, and the

whole work can be truthfully summarized in one word ‘Mental’!
