Video: youtu.be/kroLZum6wso पिछले प्रकरण (Importance of "Śāstras": youtu.be/QGwMPX5sOAc)  में हमने शास्त्र और आप्त पुरुष के बारे में जाना। परंतु आप में से कई  लोगों के प्रश्न होंगे कि क्या यह आप्त पुरुष ऋषि / महर्षि ही होते हैं?  क्या अब वैदिक शास्त्र कोई नहीं लिख सकता? और अंत में क्या आप शास्त्र लिख  सकते हैं? और यदि हाँ, तो क्या योग्यता होनी चाहिए? तो आइए इन प्रश्नों के  उत्तर जाने। मेरा नाम हैं लव शर्मा और आज हम जानेंगे आप्त पुरुष की योग्यता  और मनुष्य के वह चार दोष जो उपाधि रूप में हमारे सामने हैं। In our previous video (Importance of "Śāstras": youtu.be/QGwMPX5sOAc)  on Śāstras we have learned little about Apta Purusha. Some of you may have questions on do we still have "Rishi" / "Maharishi"? Don't we have anyone as of now who is eligible for writing Śāstras? And in the end,  Can I write scriptures / Śāstras? If yes, then what should be my qualifications or eligibility criteria? So Let's resolve these questions by understanding what qualifications of Apta Purusha and 4 human defects which are obstacles of being Apta Purusha are. This video gives answers to a few important questions: 1. क्या आज भी ऋषि या महऋषि होते हैं? 2. शास्त्र लिखने की योग्यता 3. मनुष्यों की उपाधियाँ Support us by donating at our website: www.thehinduhub.org ————————————————————————— Subscribe our Youtube Channel - http://bit.ly/thhyt Follow us on: Facebook: facebook.com/thehinduhub Twitter: twitter.com/thehinduhub Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/thehinduhub Medium: medium.com/thehinduhub Instagram: instagram.com/thehinduhub —————————————————————————

Both Indic and non-Indic systems of knowledge have given authenticity a primal place. However, authenticity can be described and justified differently depending on the theory and/or praxis of a system of knowledge. Indic knowledge systems, especially Yoga, stress the importance of experience and the means to the experience as an indispensable bedrock of authenticity, without neglecting scholarship.  However, scholars and practitioners look at authenticity very differently like the way tourists and residents experience a city. Often  Yoga studies suffer the defect of the lack of practice and experience.  And conversely, the practitioners’ perspectives suffer from the defect of downplaying scholarship, especially that Yoga gives primacy to experience. The author will present the problems of authenticity encountered in his Yoga research.
