The present volume covers a wide spectrum of topics related to Vedic and Indian Studies especially in reference to Contemporary World Order. Here only thirty one papers are published which were presented in the Seventh India International Conference of WAVES held at Pondicherry in Decenmber 2003.

Conflict between different peoples, cultures and societies has been in existence since time immemorial. In this present scenario India has a responsibility, as an emerging world power, to bring forward ancient Vedic concepts for the benefit of suffering populations and for bettering the lives of future generations. Time, space and circumstances can not decay or change truths revealsed in the Vedas and ancient Indian scriptures. In this volume, papers included on some important fields of study such as environment, management, safety, health, medicine, music, eroticism, philosophy, spirituality, psychology, ecology, comparative religion, world peace, and women's rights.

India, in some sense, presents through its tradition and literary heritage a different perspective of humanity and nature than what exists in the present dominant world view. We hope that our endeavour of bringing this publication will be fruitful for the global academic community.
