Each technology researched at the Academy increases villager work rate by 2% (max 20%).
—In-game description

Vedic Teachings is a unique technology in Chronicles: Alexander the Great available to the Puru at the Fort upon reaching the Imperial Age. Once researched, it improves Villager work rate by 2% multiplicatively for every Academy technology researched. Researching all nine Academy technologies available to the Puru gives approximately +19.5% work rate.

The player can research only either Vedic Teachings or Skandhavaras. Once either is chosen, the option to research the other is removed.

Trivia[]

  • The technology is named after the Vedas, a corpus of ancient Indian religious texts.
  • There is no upper bound enforced on the effect, though the effects are only programmed for the technologies available in the Puru technology tree.
