AN EPOCH MAKING BOOK HINDUZODIAC ANDANCIENT ASTRONOMY by K.CHANDRAHARI Summary of contents Chapter I present the historical context ofJyotihsastra and the conflict between legends and modern historical notionswhile II is a sojourn into the history of Indian civilization with emphasis onthe intricacies involved. In Chapter III Chandrahari begins the quest for truezodiac within the corridors of Siddhantic astronomy followed by detailedanalysis in the fourth section on ‘Ayanāmsa’ and the fifth chapterentitled ‘True Sidereal Zodiac’. Muladhara Rahu-Sikhi Cakra is shown to beimplicit in Suryasiddhanta and the absurd conceptions such as Citrapaksha andRevatipaksha are shown to be incompatible with the mathematical framework ofSuryasiddhanta. Considered with modernprecision, vernal equinox - the zero point of modern astronomy - coincided withthe initial point Asvinyadi of Muladhara Cakra in AD 233. OriginalSuryasiddhanta is shown to be based on the vernal equinox of AD 231 thatcoincided with Caitra sukla (1). Chapter VI presents the astronomical interpretationof the Tāntric iconography of Mahākāla Śiva anddetermination of the prehistoric epoch of ancient Indian astronomy. VII dealswith mystery of time and destiny in relation to the tāntric philosophy andthe pretentious jargon of modern Vedānta. Chapter VIII contains anoverview of studies on Vedic astronomy while IX is a discussion on theastronomical basis of Hindu religion and the true astronomical rationale of theimportant Hindu religious festivals. Chapter X is ‘Astronomy of the Epics’; anattempt to date the latest redactions of both Rāmāyana andMahābhārata based on an astronomical interpretation of the epic storylines. Chapter XI entitled ‘On the Touchstone ofEstablished Notions’ profiles the genesis of the present thesis and the storyof the conflict it had with the notions of established scholars. It also hastwo important papers ‘Ancient Indian versus Babylonian Astronomy’ and ‘Krttikās,Great Bear and the Antiquity of Vedic Astronomy’. The XIIth Chapterhas two papers dealing with the astronomical interpretation of mythology:‘Indradhvaja - A Pointer towards Vedic Antiquity’ and ‘Date of Krishna and theMahābhārata War’. Chandra Hari has also given two important appendicesviz., ‘India - Original Home of the Zodiac’ and ‘Intricacy of Indian Chronology- A Reappraisal’ which are facilitative of better conclusions on relatedcontroversies. In the former author has given a new meaning for the GreatPyramid at Giza as the zero point of the Geo Zodiac and coordinator of cosmiccausation in the terrestrial sphere.
