Evolution of India's Culture

[Bijoy Misra]

Dear friends,

Our group India Discovery Center in the US has been interested

In India Studies in middle school and high school education.  

We engage the local teachers such that they create modules of

India Studies in the curriculum.  India is mostly taught as a part

of the Ancient world.  We want to motivate the teachers to frame it

as a continuously living civilization discovering values and principles

with time.  Our book Evolution of India's Culture: Prehistory to 1947AD

makes a classroom handbook until Independence.  The ebook

is available through Amazon with link at our website

https://www.indiadiscoverycenter.org  

The PDF copy is freely downloadable from our website.

Currently we are working to extend our studies from 1947 AD 

to the current time.  We had divided the history before 1947 to

seven periods (1) Indus  before 2000BC, (2) Vedic  2000BC - 700BC,

(3)Classical 700BC-200BC (4)Golden 200BC-500AD (5) Hindu 500AD-1500AD

(6) Moghul 1500AD-1750AD (7)British 1750AD- 1947AD

We add two new periods: Reformation 1947AD-1990AD

Globalization !990-2025AD

In order to map history for a quantitative evaluation, we have created

a 36 parameter model.  I am writing this mail to seek out interested

scholars who may like to score the model.  It may take about two hours

to score the model for a good student of history.  We need a good statistical 

sample for further analytic work.  You may read our book or other 

books to gain your standing.  We will pay $25 (Rs 2000)for each completed

score for nine periods.

In a global rating we see the following (in a scale 0-9): 

Indus 5, Vedic 6, Classical 7, Golden 8, Hindu 7, Moghul 5, British 3, 

Post-independence 5, Globalization 6 

We want to validate with more samples.   

Please write to me if you are interested or have questions.

I must acknowledge that the inception of this project has a lot

to do with BVP and I am immensely grateful to the group for

the guidance and the education.

Best regards,

Bijoy Misra
