    What is Vedic Math? Vedic math is ancient system of

    mathematics consisting of 16 sutras oraphorisms.

    They were presented by a Hindu scholarand mathematician, Bharati KrishnaTirthaji Maharaja, during the early part

    of the 20th century.[1]

    Tirthaji claimedthat he found the stras after years ofstudying the Vedas, a set of sacredancient Hindu texts.

    Tirthaji claimed that there were sectionsof the Atharva-veda labeled ganitastras or mathematical formulae that

    mysteriously made no obvious referenceto mathematics.[8]

    Tirthaji was the 143rd Shankaracharya ofthe Govardhan Peeth, Puri, Orissa, India
