Guest guest Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Astronomy in Mahabharata Indian astronomy is 24000years' old.However due to following reasons, it had not been possible to fix dates : 1) Moon is going away from the earth.As per Kepler's Law, lunar month is increasing. In the past, synodic month was smaller than present value. 2)Speed of ascending and descending nodes were also more in the past. 3)Speed of rotation of earth around it's own axis is decreasing.Therefore delta T correction is to be done for historical times. Some western astronomical softwares are incorrect for historical times because they have not used correct synodic month in the past. I have considered these factors in doing calculations and fixed following Gregarian dates: Krutyug started on 6th April 13904BC,Kartik Shukla 9,on Vernal equinox day at 197 deg. Tretayug started on 28th December 9102BC,Vaishakh(Jyestha) Shukla 3 at winter solastice 39 deg. ShriRam was born at the end of Tretayug on Chaitra Shukla9 ,when Moon was in Pushya,Jupiter in Punervasu and five planets had exalted. 5802 BC to 5502 were last three hundred years of Tretayug which are often refered to as " Sanyug " period in Valmiki Ramayana. Dwaparyug started on 26th Sept 5502BC,Magh No Moon day,Autumn Equinox day at 260 deg. Kaliyug started on 25 Jan 3101BC,Chaitra Shukla 1 at 351 deg. Mahabharata war started at the beginning of kaliyug on Kartik Krishna 13, No Moon day and solar eclipse day. 3101BC to 3001BC were 100 years of " Sandhi " period which is often refered in Mahabharata by Vyas. On 23 June 3001BC,Bhadrapada Krishna 13,summer solastice day,at 135deg, next 1000 years of Kaliyug started(which was later extended to 4,32,000years in 1901BC) Valmiki and Vyas were good astronomers(Sky watchers) and their astronomical verses are 100% correct. For more details: Pl. read my book " Mahabharatatil Khagolshastra " in Marathi or " Astronomy in Mahabharata " in English.(Rs 90+postage). This book proves exact dates of Ramayana and Mahabharata by astronomical calculations .(Those who claim that Ramayana/Mahabharata happened between 2000BC to 1500BC are incorrect.Those dates which do not fit in Chaturyuga system are incorrect ) Contact: Prafulla Vaman Mendki B.E.,I.E.S.,D.B.M.,(F)I.E.T.E.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Dear Sir,You have said that:"Dwaparyug started on 26th Sept 5502BC,Magh No Moon day,Autumn Equinox day at 260 deg. Kaliyug started on 25 Jan 3101BC,Chaitra Shukla 1 at 351 deg."Does this mean that Dwapara Yuga was only 2400 years long?I also did not understand the following part:"On 23 June 3001BC,Bhadrapada Krishna 13,summer solastice day,at 135deg, next 1000 years of Kaliyug started(which was later extended to 4,32,000years in 1901BC)"- Why and who extended Kaliyuga suddenly in between? - Why is Kaliyuga is longer than all other yugas timed by you?- Initially you said that Kaliyuga started in 3101 BC. But, after just 100 years in 3001 BC you say that next 1000 years of Kaliyuga started. I don't understand this.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Dear krishna Thanks for your interest.flg are answers to your questions: Dwaparyug was only 2400 years. Kaliyug was supposed to be 1200 years.(100+1000+100) Each Yug consists of Sandhi period before and after. e.g.Krutyug : 400+4000+400=4800 Tretayug 300+3000+300=3600 etc. Sandhi period of Kaliyug started in 3101BC. Next 1000 years started in 3001BC. Last 100 years started in 2001BC. Lakiyug was to end in 1901BC.But before it ended,it was extended to 4,32,000years. This was done to differenciate between God years and Human years. 1 God year = 360 Human years. Ram and Krishna were given status of Gods. There are no Gods in Kaliyug.Only humans.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 हरे राम कृष्ण Dear Prafulla , Namaskar. You mean to say that Krta, Treta and Dvapara Yugas are 10,800 years long and the addition of Kali Yuga (432.000) makes a Maha/Chatur Yuga 442800 years long. However, as per Narada Purana and Surya Siddhanta the number of civil days in a Chaturyuga are: 1,577,917,828. Therefore if indeed a Mahayuga consists of the above mentioned number then a simple division of the civil days by the number of years reveals that each Solar year (this is specifically mentioned in Surya Siddhanta) is 3563½ civil days long. How is this possible? Do explain how your calculations take this into account. Looking forward to your reply. Yours sincerely, Visti Larsen ---------- Jyotish Guru (Vedic Astrologer) www: http://srigaruda.com @: visti prafulla Vaman Mendki skrev: Dear krishna Thanks for your interest.flg are answers to your questions: Dwaparyug was only 2400 years.
