Knowledge
concept and understanding vis a vis Vidya.
Etymologically the word knowledge is drives from Middle English
(1150-1500) word knowleche. Know means “to find out” and leche

evidence.
According to, “Oxford dictionary”, facts, information and
skills acquired through experience or education and the theoretical and
practical understanding of subject is called knowledge. Generally knowledge is a type of belief in something true.
The study of knowledge in philosophy is called epistemology and great
philosopher of history Plato defined knowledge as “justified true belief”. Some
modern philosophers are not agreeing with his statement. However many
definition of knowledge and theories are in the favour of Plato.
The term used in Sanskrit for knowledge is vidya
which means knowledge. In Indian philosophy vidya means knowledge
learning and science. Sharing knowledge is one of the biggest ‘daan’ in Hinduism
and us known as vidya daan. The opposite word of vidya is avidya means
ignorance or misinformation.
According to Hindu beliefs Sarasvati is goddess of vidya.
She has spiritual energy which uplifts, empowers and purifies the individual.
Sarvasvti is also known for goddess of wisdom, music, art and learning.
In Hindu philosophy , knowledge refers to study of six
schools of Hindu philosophy
