Question

memorisation of mathematical tables, historical dates, capitals of countries and
even poems leaves an indelible mark on every adult who has attented school.
However, all educators deprecate this rote system learning by orally reciting and
consigning lessons to memory as mindless and mechanical, which goes against
critical thinking and creativity. But is this dichotomy between creativity and rote
learning part of a lazy binary thinking?2. We often hear about people who can
repeat the entire telephone directory or memorise the entire dictionary. Indians
have a history of highly developed systems of memorisation, perfected through
centuries of Vedic learning. From a typically Western perspective, the
permanency of the written word has been pitted against the 'unconscious
operation of memory' of oral cultures, and held to be more reliable in cultural
transmission. However, refuting this thesis, Fritz Stall, an Indie scholar observes
that the oral tradition in India is remarkable, “because it has led to scientific
discoveries that are of enduring interest". Of course, this mugging up can be
aural (i.e. chanting aloud) or visual-mentally storing images in a visual map.3. The
advantages of rote memorisation-like it expands areas of the mind to great
possibilities-a
:-are now becoming evident to the world. Various accounts from
ancient India, including those from travellers like I-tsing, point to the fool-proof
system of oral memorisation and the capacity to absorb volumes of data. 4. A
parallel dimension of transmission of knowledge also existed in India, with a
flexible mode of oral communication through which knowledge was
disseminated. One instance is the narrative-performative tradition of recitation,
which extended basic story through interpolations, conscious extensions and
embedding of sub-narratives. Many Indian myths, legends, epics, and fables
such as Kathasaritsagara and Jataka stories were spread though this process.
While the story remains the same, the interpretation changes according to who
says it, where it is said and how it is said. While communicating mathematics,
philosophy and other scientific disciplines, cryptic text forms were created, that
facilitated memorisation.5. A related question pertains to cognition-how can we
transmit principles using memorisation as a creative tool rather than as a​
