Reconstructing Hindu History from the Stars to Scriptures
Recent Webinar: Sunday, November 23, 2025, 9 am PT / 12 pm ET / 10:30 pm IST
About the Webinar:
Join Dr. Raj Vedam for an immersive and expansive conversation that revisits the story of Hindu civilization through the twin lenses of celestial science and sacred scripture. Drawing on insights he shared at The Jaipur Dialogues Annual Summit 2025, where he explored questions of knowledge transmission, tradition, and cultural continuity, Dr. Vedam invites you on a journey that begins with the stars and culminates in the sutras. You will discover how ancient astronomical practices, such as those explored in the Genius of Hindu Astronomy Retreat: Gaṇita, Phalita Jyotiṣa at Hindu University of America, ground and inform the spiritual vision presented in the Vedāntic texts.
In this webinar, we will explore how the night-sky observations of Bharat’s sages, including the tracking of nakṣatras, grahas, celestial cycles, and the measurement of time and motion, provided more than calendars or astronomy. They offered a foundational architecture of meaning, purpose, and orientation. From this foundation, we will move into how this cosmic framework is mirrored in sacred scripture, showing how texts such as the Upaniṣads and Vedānta śāstras locate human consciousness in relation to universal reality and reveal a path toward freedom.
We will also offer a preview of the upcoming Genius of Hindu Astronomy Retreat: Gaṇita, Phalita Jyotiṣa, describing what awaits participants, how stargazing and textual study converge, and how you can take part in this transformative experience.
Whether you are drawn by the ancient sky wisdom, the depth of Hindu scripture, or the intersection of both within a living tradition, this webinar offers an inspiring invitation. Come with your curiosity, bring your questions, and leave with a renewed vision of how the stars and the sutras together illuminate a living heritage of clarity, connection, and cosmic purpose.
