While looking ahead to reconnect with the knowledge of the past the Mission is in the process of trying to re contextualize the knowledge contained in manuscripts for the present and the future generations. At present the mission is an integral part of Indira Gandhi National Centre for the arts. The mission launched a lecture series titled Tattvabodha in January 2005. Since then a monthly lecture series is organised in Delhi and other centres in the country. Tattvabodha has established itself as a forum for intellectual discourse debate and discussion. Eminent scholars representing different aspects of India's knowledge systems have addressed and interacted with highly receptive audiences over the course of the past few years. 194 pp.

It explores the surpassing contemporary relevance of this tradition, and stresses the urgent need to reread, retell and renew it, for exorcising the shadow of imminent extinction, hovering over humanity and darkening its threshold.
