Vedic Math

The ancient, mystical art of claiming math was invented by your ancestors without doing the math of actually reading the Vedas. Popular among pseudo-historians and WhatsApp scholars, it's a misinterpretation of a book by Bharati Krishna Tirtha, who himself admitted his formulas aren't Vedic but just catchy branding.

Example 1:
"My uncle said Indians invented zero and Vedic Math proves we were the smartest people ever."
"Bro, your uncle needs to subtract his ignorance first."
The mathematical equivalent of wearing a T-shirt that says "I Lift," when the only thing you’ve lifted is an internet conspiracy.

Taglines:

"Because rewriting history is easier than reading it."
"For those who think math textbooks need a spiritual awakening."
