Doctorate of Yoga and Ayurveda (2008)

He produced exemplary work on the epistemological and methodological foundations of sister ancient sciences, Yoga and Ayurveda. He established that the current research methodological framework of modern science is unable to capture the essence of these sciences and therefore, may require a very different approach on the methods of knowledge for Yoga and Ayurveda and a rethinking on the blind spots of our modern scientific methodology that can be covered by the method discovered by ancient Hindus. He submitted his widely appreciated thesis in 2008 at Punjab University, Chandigarh, India – a university that stands for humanism, for tolerance, for reason, for the adventure of ideas and for the search of truth.
