About the 18 Sciences & 18 Arts which grace Indian Philosophy.
We are bringing in a Consciousness Revolution, a Trans Human Revolution and intend to take humanity to the level of Divine Consciousness, through these intuitive arts and sciences.
1 ) Science of Being as Being -Vedanta Sastra, 2 ) Science of Cosmic Union - Yoga Saastra, 3 ) Science of the Heavens - Jyothis Sastra, 4 ) Science of Nature - Sankhya Saastra, 5 ) Science of Atoms - Vaisesika Sastra, 6 ) Science of Logic - Nyaya Sastra , 7 ) Science of Life - Ayurveda Sastra, 8 ) Science of Wealth - Artha Sastra, 9 ) Science of Grammar - Vyakarana Sastra, 10 ) Science of Definition - Niruktha Sastra, 11 ) Science of Phonetics - Siksha Sastra, 12 ) Science of Poetic Meters - Chandas Sastra,13 ) Science of Musicology - Gandharva Veda, 14 ) Science of Symbology - Purana Sastra,15 ) Science of Ethics - Dharma Sastra, 16 ) Science of Archery - Dhanur Veda, 17 ) Science of Serpent Power - Tantra Sastra, 18 ) Science of Dance - Natya Saastra. .
These are Intuitive Sciences, which are slightly different from the physical sciences and involve the added element of Intuition, along with Experimentation, Observation, Hypothesis, Generalisation and Classification ( which the physical sciences use ) ! The Sixfold Scientific Method !
The Eighteen Arts are

Mahat ( Cosmic Intelligence )
and EGO !
Relation of 18 to 108 is that 108 is a multiple of 18 ! The sacred 108 symbolises the 9 Revolving Heavens * 12 Signs of the Tropical Zodiac. Also the 108 Lunar Mansions of the Sidereal Zodiac. ( 27 Nakshatras * 4 quarters).
