What can the ideas of an ancient Indian thinker tell us about science and philosophy today?

Dakshita Jain of Grade 9 explored this fascinating connection through her article on Maharshi Kanada, which has been featured in the Free Press School Edition.

Her write-up looks at Maharshi Kanada’s pioneering ideas about matter and atoms, along with his contribution to Indian philosophy and the Vaisheshika school of thought. Through the article, Dakshita brings an important part of India’s intellectual heritage to young readers in her own voice.

Congratulations, Dakshita!
