We are a product of the non-profit trust, Rishi Rina. Vidya Vatika is an online platform for learning Indian Knowledge Systems. In today’s age, we can access the world by our fingertips and literally just by our fingertips. We realised this is a huge forum to spread knowledge. The knowledge that has got buried in the soils of ancient Indian past. Indian Knowledge Systems are the various systems developed in ancient India by eminent scholars to face life. This timeless knowledge today sits in those ancient texts upon which many have turned a blind eye. Vidya Vatika aims at bringing back that knowledge and applying it to the modern day. You will get to learn various topics from scholars working in this field for more than three decades. You can choose relevant topics by browsing them. We have tried to make choice easy by segregating subjects by professional background for those who are new to the topics. The courses are currently free of charge and open to anyone who is in search of finding a little extra edge to life.
