| SOME ASTONISHING ACHIVEMENTS BY ANCIENTS INDIA... Acharya Bharadwaj (800 BCE) was the pioneerof aviation technology and has written �YantraSarvasa� which includes astonishing and outstandingdiscoveries. He at the time described three categoriesof flying machines that travel from one planetto another but also astonishingly from one universeto another. Space travel existed in the ancient Vedictimes, something that science today has even barelybroken the surface on. Acharya Kapil (3000 BCE) was the father ofcosmology. His research on primal matter and creationmakes today's science look like an introductorycourse.The big bang theory? How about when he answersquestions on the creation of the Universe. Hindus were far ahead of their times. The proof existsin our sacred books. Acharya Charak (600 BCE) was the father ofMedicine : His renowned work �Charak Samhita�which is considered the encyclopedia of Ayurvedatoday goes in depth about his principals, diagnosesand cures that still retain their potency and trutheven after a couple of millennia. His research led tothe facts of the Human anatomy, embryology, pharmacology, blood circulation and diseases like diabetes,tuberculosis, heart disease, etc. Charak Samhita describes medicinal qualities and functionsof 100,000 herbal plants that today's science is stilldoing research on. Acharya Kanad (600 BCE) was the founder ofAtomic Theory. In his �Vaisheshik Darshan� treatisehe wrote "Every object of creation is made of atomswhich in turn connect with each other to form molecules". This statement ushered in the Atomic Theory for the first time ever in the world, nearly2500 years before John Dalton. Rishi Nagarjuna (100 CE): The Master of Chemical Science. His vast research produced maiden discoveries and inventions in the faculties of Chemistry and Metallurgy. His textual masterprices like �Ras Ratnakar�, �Rashrudaya� and �Rasendramangal� are his contributions to Chemistry. Where medieval alchemists of England failed,Rishi Nagarjuna has discovered the alchemy oftransmuting base metals into gold. His discoveriesstill impress and astonish scientists today. Rishi Aryabhatt (476 CE) Master Astronomerand Mathematician: At the age of just 23 he wrote atext on astronomy and an unparalleled treatise onmathematics called �Aryanbhatiyam�. He formulatedthe process of calculating the motion of planets and the time of eclipses. (100 years ago, the church hadproblems describing and accepting this as a scientificphenomenon). Aryabhatt was the first to claim that the earthwas round, it rotates on its axis, orbits the sun andsuspended in space � 1000 years ago beforeCopernicus published his heliocentric theory. Aryabhatt was the first to acknowledge the Pi to fourdecimal place (3.1416) and the sine table in trigonometry.Centuries later, in 825 CE, the Arab mathematician Ibna Musa credited the value of Pi to the Indians, "This value has been given by the Hindus". Above all Rishi Aryabhatt�s most spectacular contributionis the concept of zero without which moderncomputers technology would have been non-existent. Rishi Varahamihir (499-587 CE): Master Scientist Astrologer and Astronomer. In his book�Panchsiddhant�, he notes that the moon and theplanets are lustrous not because of their own lightbut due to sunlight. In the �Bruhad Samhita� and�Bruhad Jatak�, he revealed his discoveries in thedomains of geography, constellation science, botany and animal science. Rishi Bhaskaracharya II (1114-1183) - Master of Algebra/Geometry/Astronomy. His works in Algebra, Arithmetic and Geometry catapulted him to fame and immortality. His renowned works are �Lilavani�and �Bijaganita� which are considered unparalleled.In his works �Surya Siddhant�, he makes a note onthe force of gravity: "Objects fall on earth due to aforce of attraction by the earth. Therefore the earth,the planets, constellations, moon and sun are heldin orbit due to this attraction".Bhaskaracharya was the first to discover gravity,500 years before Isaac Newton. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
