The first mathematical treatise,
Was the Brahma Sphuta Siddhanta,
Written by the ace mathematician,
Brahmagupta from India.
He called 5 degrees of the Zodiac, Jya,
And so a Zodiacal Sign of 30, has six Jyas.
He gave Sine Tables for difference of 5 degrees,
And originated concepts of sine and cosine.
As Trikonamithi became Trignometry,
And Jyamithi became Geometry later,
Science of Jyas was highlighted,
As longitudes computation needed it.
Bow and arrow was best example,
Bow represents the Arc Sine, Chapa,
And the Versine, 1 - cos x, Sara,arrow,
And then, computation became simple.
The rough Sine Table set up,
Was later modified by Aryabhata,
Who gave sine values for differences,
Of three degrees and minutes forty five.
Since it deals with R Sine Differences,
It cannot be called a Sine Table,
But the Table of R Sine Differences,
Of great use to the computing student.
Radius, R, is easy to calculate,
360 by 2 Pi is 57.3 degrees,
Which converted is 206265 seconds,
The Magic Figure of Astronomy.
It so happened, Ithiha Asa, say the poets,
The Seer Poets of the Vedas,
Who knew that without Allegories,
Spiritual Truths cannot be taught !
Epic Poetry, Ithihasa,is allegorical ,
Symbolic of the Titanic, inner war,
Between the black and white opposites,
Of good and evil, Prosperity and Adversity !
Two major epic Poems here are,
The Majestic Mahabharata, with 100 K verses,
And Righteous Ramayana, with 24000 verses
Written by high calibre mystic poets.
Because of the Overmind Aesthesis being present,
We can call them as Ovemind Poetry.
Thou shalt find illumination and inspiration there,
As these verses are full of supramundane beauty.
Man is a composite creature.
Virtue and Vice are mixed
But the ratio is not fifty-fifty,
Either good or evil is more.
Vice more means Man Criminal,
Virtue more means Man Sage.
Half half is Man Common
And cent percent Virtue is Man Divine.
Imperfect principle is Ego,
Perfect principle is Self.
Ego is our negative aspect
And Self, our positive aspect.
King Ravana is emblem of Ego
Lord Rama represents Self.
King Kamsa symbolises Ego
And Lord Krishna, Self.
We are the battleground and place,
Where all parallel universes meet,
Where the Great Battle is fought,
Between Wisdom and Ignorance !
Human compositeness is everywhere.
Man is a dual personality, a paradox !
Asset of Virtues is Daivee Sampath
And Asset of Vices,Asuri Sampath.
Asuri Sampath binds,
Daivee Sampath liberates !
To gain Self Actualisation,
Increase Daivee Sampath.
The Six Enemies of Man, Ari Shad Varga,
The Six Deadly Sins of Dante,
Are lust, anger ,pride ,ambition, jealousy, avarice
Kamam, Krodham, Madam ,Mohm, Matsaryam,Lobham.
Along with these six, there are four more,
Blocks to Self Actualisation.
Ego, mind, intellect, processing mind,
These Ten are the barriers to Enlightenment !
These Ten are the Ten Heads of the Ego,
The Ten Heads of King Ravana !
The Law of the Way advocates their destruction
To gain the Divine Crown !
Kundalini Music is the perfect blend,
Of two Sastras, Sangeetha and Tantra.
It can arouse the Serpent Power,
And take one to Enlightenment !
Geetha Sastra is the Science of Lyrics,
Vadya Sastra is Science of Music Instrumental.
Nritta Sastra is the Science of Dance
And all these three constitute Sangeetha !
Kundalini is the Serpentine Power,
Coiled in all mortals.
It is the micro Representative
Of the macro Universal Shakti.
( Kundalitha Shakti iti Kundalini ).
Aim of both Sastras, Yoga and Tantra, are same
It is the Unification of Knowledge, Known and Knower.
Relative Ego merges with Absolute Self in Kaivalya,
And this is considered as the Summum Bonum of Life.
( Jnathru Jnana Jneya Abheda Bhavanam
Sree Chakra Poojanam ).
Eternians have been reviled,
For indulging in Snake worship.
External snake they worship not,
But the inner, serpentine power,
Cause of such undeserved criticism,
Is undoubtedly Ignorance !
They know not the Esoteric,
And fail in Literature and Art.
Sir John Woodroffe studied Tantra deeply,
His Meditations, Electro Magnetic and Sri Yantra,
Effectuated Self Actualisation. A Grand Success,
His life was his message !

India is not a Colony, but a Nation, A Civilization, like the mighty West. India has her Poets, Scientists and Philosophers, Just like the powerful West. As scholars, Indian and Western, believe differently Let us be least controversial Both are great civilizations And none plagiarised from the other.
According to Western Learning, Kepler first postulated Planetary Laws. According to Indian Learning, Aryabhata first calculated celestial longitudes ! ( Aryabhato Graha Ganitham } Correct Mean Longitude thrice ComputIng Anomalies, Manda, Vipata & Sheeghra, Considering majot perturbations And you get the true longitude The Great Guru Shani Karsha, m = 1187
secs*( Sin ( xyear - 4660) * 360/918) And four more perturbations are computed Before the major calculations ! About Computation of Celestial Longitudes http://www.eastrovedica.com/html/computingvedicplanetarypositions.htm Soorya is the Central Eye Of the Solar System Because of his celestial gravity, All planets revolve. { Soorya Jagata Chakshu, Gurutvakarshan } Correcting the Mean Longitude Method Is based on the Aryabhatan Model. Kerala School follows this Model, Of a Helio Geo Universe. Lord of the Logos is Soorya, And cause of the Solar system. Will reveal the Eye of the Vedas, For it cometh from Universal Mind! Sooryam na tva Graha patim Jagaat Utpathi Karanam Vakshyami Veda Nayanam Yadha Brahma Mukhasrutham. Refutation of charges againstt Sun Worship Eternians have been chastised For worshipping the Sun They worship not the external Sun, But the Inner Sun, the Atma Tattva, Divya Tattva ! The Sun is the source of all Energy Without him, life on Earth not possible Its thermonuclear fusion reaction Gives heat to the Logos entire1 Without Him, can humanity exist ? So He is the only visible Deity ! His longitude creates the Seasons, And He is the basis for Time Calculations ! If the pagans are superstitious, For worshipping a God they have seen Anti pagans are more superstitious For worshipping a God they have never seen ! Astronomy is said to be the
Science of the Heavens and Astrology, the Wisdom of the Heavens. The subtle
difference between physical Science and intuitive science is the only difference
between the two, even though some astronomers in their ego will say Astrology is
not a science. Without the basic knowledge of Astronomy, the knowledge of an astrologer is not complete.
Ganita means Astronomy and the mathematical aspect of Astion rologia Vedica.
Gnosis means Knowledge or Wisdom and the true Astro Gnosis is the knowledge of
all the three branches, Astronomy, Mathematics and Astrology, Siddhanta,
Samhitha and Hora. Jyothishastra
praveeno graha ganitha padu, so thra daivajna uktha .
The Kerala Mathemlanetary longitudes by the triune method of correction
of the mean longitude of the planet. The planet on the Mean Circle was brought
to the Heliocentric Circle, then to the Ecliptic Circle and finally to the
Geocentric Coordinate System ! The planet on the Mean Circle is known as Griha
Madhyama and the reduced planet to the Heliocentric Circle is known as Vikshepa
Vriteeya Sphuta Griha. Then it is brought ot the Ecliptic Circle and he is known
as Kranti Vritteeya Sphuta Griha. Then it is brought to the Geocentric Circle
and he is known as Sheegra Vritteeya Sphuta Griha. This is totally different
from the Western calculations, propagated by Kepler, Laplace, Schlyter or Keith
Burnett, where the True Anomaly of the planet is found and then the Argument of
Perihelion added ! So let no one claim that
Indian Astronomy is derived from Greek sources !
We have the Pingree and Van
der Werden Hypothesis, the Naugbauer Hypothesis that the multi step algorithms
of Indian Astronomy approximated a Greek Planetary Model, an eccentre and
epicyclical Model. We have to respect them, as at least they admitted that
India had an Astronomy. Not like Thibeau or Whitney who said that the ancient
Indians had no knowledge of Astronomy or Maths, when they saw gigantic
calculations like 311.04 trillion year cycles ( Maha Manvantara ) and the
Cosmological Cycle (4.32 billion years ). They said these calculations
were plagiarised from the Romans and the Greeks!
Dr Carl Sagan opined that
while Christians were calculating in thousands, Hindus were calculating in
trillions !
The Radius Vector, said
Kepler, sweeps out equal areas in equal time. Parameswara in the 15th century
and Nilakantha in the 16th talked about Vyasardha Manda Karna. Vyasa is
Diameter. Vysardha is Radius and Vyasardha Mandakarna is nothing but Radius
Vector.
Kepler's Second Law states that
All planets move faster at
Perihelion and move slower at Aphelion. That was known to the Indian
astronomers. Otherwise they wouldnt have called Aphelion, Mandoccha ( Manda -
slow ) and Perihelion, Sheegrocha ( Sheeghra - fast ) !
Let us get the dates of the
astronomers
Parameswara - 15th century C

Nilakanta - 16th
Kepler - 17th
Laplace - 18th
These are the Nine Orbital Elements of

This is the Longitude
corrected thrice Method of Kerala Astronomy
While the Western method
is brilliant, finding out the True Anomaly of the Planet ( Theta = v + w )
and then converting it into Cartesian coordinates, x,y and z and then
converting them into Spherical Coordinates, r, Theta and Phi ( vide
Paul Schlyter, Computing Planetary Positions.htm ), the Kerala Method is no
less effective.
In the Kerala Method, after computing the Mean Longitude of
the planet, Graha Madhyamam, the Manda Anomaly, the angle between Position (
of the planet ) and Aphelion is computed. The formula used is
Manda Anomaly = Mean Longitude of the Planet - Aphelion. Then Manda jya
phalam, x, the angle between the planet on the Mean Circle and the planet on
the Heliocentric circle, is computed by the formula x = R e Sin M and x is
then added ( if long > 180 ) or subtracted ( if long <180 ) to
the Mean Longitude of the planetg.
Then Vipata Kendra, the
angle between Position and the Node is computed ( Vipata Kendra = Ecliptic
longitude - Ascending Node ) and h, the Parinathi Phalam, the angle between
the planet on the Heliocentric Circle and the planet of the Ecliptic is
computed and then h is added or subracted ( added if mean
longitude is in even signs and subtracted if mean longitude is in odd signs
) to the Mean Longitude of the planet. And finally the Sheeghra
Anomaly, the angle between Position and the Earth Sun Vector ( Sheegra
Anomaly = Ecliptic Longitude - Longitude of Sun ) is computed to
get the true longitudes of planets and x, the Sheegra phalam, the angle
between the planet on the Ecliptic and the Geocentric Circle is added ( if
long >180 ) or subtracted ( if long <180 ) to the mean longitude
