Guest guest Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Dear friend, Vedic Mathematics of Sankaracharya is an example to which even such religious people may stoop in the name of glory of the Vedas. Vedic Mathematics is a fraud and my paper is internationally quoted in this context. There is no appendix to the Vedas as the Sankaracharya claimed and no such Sutras in any Vedas. , R Venkat <rdjvenkat wrote: > > dear friend > > geomithi, a part of of Vedas that deals with homa kunda drawings etc etc the 'West' called it > geometry. study it in detail. > > for your specific requirement i would suggest you to go thru the Book Vedic Mathematics > written by Late Puri Sankaracharya (the original and the first one).

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Dear Venkat ji, Chandra hari is simply true about text creation of the Ex. Sankaracharya Bharti Krishna Theertha who made up a text based on his own understanding and christened (hinduized?) it with the name 'Vedic Mathematics' putting the sin of those minor mathematical tricks on 'Vedas'! :=) The truth is - * Ther is no such Sutras in any Vedas as Sankaracharya claimed. If you truly want to know how the ancient indians did the calculations - There is a document named " Kawri-Maths.pdf " inside the folder " Sreenadh " in the filese section of the group. The URL is given below: Sreenadh/Kawri-Math\ s.pdf That could be helpful - no trick It is hard work. The tricks provided by Krishna theertha apply only to special cases, but the true methods are generally applicable everywhere and generalized ones - just like the maths we follow today.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Dear Sepp, I would envy any one who could provide such concrete proof or evidence about things related to the outer universe. I would only conjecture as I must admit to my limitations.
