About the Book Generally it is believed that 'science of microorganisms evolved in western hemisphere and it is said to be the 'powerful' part of modern medicine. Contrary to this popular belief the evidence produced in this book lead us to believe that microbial sciences was itself a inherent part of Vedic and post-Vedic medicine. Like surgery, microbiology is also an indigenous science of Bharat.

Modern microbiology has developed with the aid of sophisticated instruments like microscope, chemicals and other reagents, whereas Vedic microbiology has developed by dint of yogic powers / soul based infinite intuition, scientific methods (Gautama's Nyayasutra, Kanada's Vaises ika-darśana, Jaimini's Mimansa-darśana, however there are reasons to believe that instruments like microscope was in vogue in Vedic Times too).

This is the first book in the Ved Informatics (Biosciences) Series. This book is an important document on scientific Indian heritage.. This study will certainly add to the new dimensions to the modern study of microbiology in India and elsewhere.

This work might serve as an eye opener for students pursuing any discipline to become aware of the Vedic knowledge. Certainly, the time is ripe to distill the inner aspects of life while we progress economically and socially. Let this book help indigenize mind of some western- minded persons and in turn scientific pursuits. It is expected that this book will also gratify the philosophical minded persons.

Foreword In the middle of 19th century Swami Dayananda Sarasvati, a great embodiment of Vedic life and thought, the leader of Indian Renaissance and a great social reformer, gave a clarion call 'Back to the Vedas' to bring out the Indians not only from the clutches of political slavery but from the clutches of the mental, social and cultural slavery of the foreigners. He knew it well that until and unless the people of a country are liberated ideologically, their political liberation will be only the far fetched dream.
