[This talk on "Science of Sound in Hinduism"  by Dr. M. G. Prasad was recorded on August 17, 2019 at INTACH, New Delhi. Little did we know that Dr. M. G. Prasad would not live to see his talk live on YouTube. He passed away on Nov 25, 2019. We at Srijan Foundation are deeply saddened by his passing away and dedicate this video as a tribute to his 'atman']. 


Science of sound generally refers to study of vibrations of air particles particularly in the audible frequencies. In Hinduism, the terms such as Naada and Shabda are used. However neither naada nor shabda can be translated directly as sound because Naada and Shabda refer to much more than vibrations of air particles. In RigVeda, a mantra gives the process of human speech in four stages of which the last stage is audible sound. 

This talk deals with various aspects of Naada and Shabda and their impact on various aspects such as speech, music and spirituality. The talk also discusses the relationship of naada and shabda to consciousness.

Science Of Sound In Hinduism | Dr M G Prasad | Vedic Perspective On Acoustics | Naada And Shabda

From a time when the Indian per capita income was higher than the British per capita income to the dubious distinction of being an extremely poor country down the millennium, the Indian economy has suffered a longstanding decline and is only now beginning its climb back upwards.
While the broad reasons impacting India’s present economic growth include exogenous factors such as the demographic dividend and global technological benefits, the key factor is the thrust by Modi government on good-governance.

As India now enters the functioning-government stage with a more rule-based economy being put in place, the tough economic decisions and market reforms undertaken by the Modi government pave the way for India’s resurgence as an economic superpower.
In his Srijan Talk on “Understanding Modinomics,” Harsh Gupta explains why he feels the Indian economy is so bullish under the Modi government.
