Vedic mathematics (VM) approaches the arithmetic calculations in a simplified way which is proven to increase the speed maintaining the accuracy. VM is believed to be presented by Swami Bharati Krishna Tirtha (1884-1960), former Jagadguru Sankaracharya of Puri. He culled a set of 16 Sutras (aphorisms) and 13 Sub - Sutras (corollaries) from the Atharvana Veda. According to him, there has been considerable literature on Mathematics in the Veda-sakhas. Unfortunately most of it has been lost to humanity as of now.

The Sutras apply to and cover almost every branch of Mathematics. They apply even to complex problems involving a large number of mathematical operations. Application of the Sutras saves a lot of time and effort in solving the problems, compared to the formal methods presently in vogue. Though the solutions appear like magic, the application of the Sutras is perfectly logical and rational.

In this blog, you can find the explanation and application of VM using the sutras and sub-sutras.
