VEDIC MATHS
What is Vedic Maths?
Vedic Maths is an ancient system of mathematics that originated in India, rooted in techniques drawn from the Vedas — particularly the Atharva Veda. Rediscovered in the 20th century by Bharati Krishna Tirthaji Maharaj, it uses 16 sutras and several sub-sutras to solve problems faster and more simply than conventional methods.
It builds mental calculation, pattern recognition, and flexible thinking across arithmetic, algebra and geometry — helping learners solve complex problems quickly while sharpening focus, memory and confidence with numbers.
Key features of Vedic Mathematics
The system is based on 16 sutras (aphorisms) and 13 sub-sutras that provide a framework for performing mathematical operations.
Mental Calculation Techniques are methods of performing arithmetic quickly and accurately using only the mind. These techniques enhance students’ logical thinking, memory, and problem-solving speed.
Techniques can be applied to arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, and more.
Practicing Vedic Maths enhances mental agility, concentration, and mathematical aptitude.
While widely used in educational settings and mental math practice, its methods remain debated among mathematicians.
