The integration of the Indian Knowledge System (IKS) into modern education, facilitated through digital media, represents a burgeoning field of academic and practical interest. This research paper explores how traditional Indian educational content, including philosophy, sciences, arts, and spiritual practices, can be effectively blended with contemporary educational technologies to enhance learning experiences and outcomes. The study conducts a thorough literature review of existing academic papers, educational policies, and case studies to examine current integration and identify best practices and challenges in the field. It highlights the adoption of digital platforms such as e-learning courses, mobile applications, and virtual libraries that make IKS accessible to a broader audience. Furthermore, the paper discusses the potential benefits of this integration in fostering cultural heritage, improving cognitive diversity, and addressing educational needs in the digital age. It also critically analyzes the obstacles faced, including issues of cultural sensitivity, technological access, and authenticity. Finally, the paper proposes recommendations for educators, policymakers, and technologists aiming to further this integration, emphasizing the need for collaborative development and culturally aware methodologies. This research aims to contribute to the discourse on educational innovation, offering insights that could inform future strategies in educational practice and policy concerning the Indian Knowledge System.
