He emphasised that these works are more than literary masterpieces – they are philosophical and aesthetic foundations that have profoundly influenced India’s worldview and modes of thought, emotion, expression, and living.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the development as a “proud moment for every Indian across the world”.

“The inclusion of the Gita and Natyashastra in UNESCO’s Memory of the World Register is a global recognition of our timeless wisdom and rich culture.

The UNESCO Memory of the World Register honours documentary heritage which is deemed to hold exceptional universal value.

It includes texts, manuscripts, and documents that have significantly shaped human history and continue to influence generations.

With this addition, India has 14 entries in the prestigious Memory of the World Register. The Bhagavad Gita, a sacred dialogue between Lord Krishna and Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, forms a part of the Mahabharata.

Comprising 700 verses across 18 chapters, the text addresses profound philosophical questions, encouraging action, selflessness, and devotion.

It synthesises key elements from Vedic, Buddhist, Jain, and Carvaka traditions, making it a cornerstone of India’s intellectual and spiritual heritage. The Gita has been studied and translated across the globe for centuries.

The Natyashastra, attributed to the sage Bharat Muni, is the foundational treatise on Indian performing arts, encompassing theatre, dance, and music.

It has shaped classical art traditions across centuries and remains a guiding text for artists and scholars alike.
