  • Connecting the Modern Potential of AI-Driven Gene Sequencing with the Ancient Indian Healthcare Knowledge of Susruta
    Nanda Gopal Biswas, Anirban Tarafdar
    Bio Web of Conferences, 2025
    This study examined the possibility of connecting the sage Suśruta’s surgical expertise to contemporary AI-integrated drug development, gene sequencing, and biomedical healthcare systems. The ancient Indian surgical systems, healthcare systems, disease diagnostic systems, cure systems, healthy living systems, drug design systems, and many more biomedical systems are provided in Suśruta Sanhitā. These days, AI models such as deep learning and machine learning are incredibly effective in drug discovery, gene sequencing, and disease diagnosis, among other areas. By looking for commonalities in observation, classification, and evidence-based reasoning among different systems, this study aims to establish a link. Yantras, Shatras, and Dhātu -s mimic tissue-specific expression, while Srotas align with biological signaling pathways and Tridoṣa reflects regulation. Information regarding disease susceptibility is provided by Prakṛti . With important ramifications for bioethics and global health justice, this interdisciplinary approach expands our knowledge of medical evolution and promotes culturally grounded genetic innovation.
  • Samkhya philosophy, deep ecology and sustainable development
    Nanda Gopal Biswas, Gyan Prakash, and
    Problemy Ekorozwoju, 2022
    Samkhya philosophy is one of the oldest philosophies in the Indian philosophical system. This philosophy is independent in origin and mainly known for its evolution theory. Samkhya philosophy has accepted the two ultimate and independent realities, Nature and pure Consciousness. This paper is an attempt to comprehend the notion of deep ecology from the Samkhya’s evolution theory perspective. In this paper, firstly, we have elucidated the Samkhya philosophy of suffering and the solution to the problem. In the second part of the article, we have argued that how Samkhya’s philosophical notion of Nature demonstrates our embeddedness in Nature. Therefore, the idea of deep ecology is always there in one or another form in Samkhya philosophy. It has also connections to the idea of sustainable development.
