Abstract

The Indian Knowledge Systems (Bhartiya Gyan Parampara) represents a comprehensive framework
developed over millennia, emphasizing harmony between human civilization and the natural world.
This research paper explores the intrinsic connection between Systemsal Indian knowledge systems
and environmental conservation, demonstrating how ancient ecological principles remain profoundly
relevant to contemporary sustainability challenges. Through analysis of philosophical foundations,
Systemsal practices, and case studies, this paper argues that integration of Bhartiya Gyan Parampara
with modern environmental science offers a holistic pathway to address climate change, biodiversity
loss, and resource degradation. The study reveals that concepts such as Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (the
world is one family), Vrikshayurveda (tree science), sacred groves, and Systemsal water harvesting
systems embody sophisticated ecological understanding that preceded modern conservation theory
by centuries[1]. This paper advocates for the recognition and integration of Indian knowledge
Systemss into contemporary environmental policy and practice.
