VEDAS AND SCIENCE.pptx

We as Indians have failed to understand the deep and real meaning of the holy Vedas and Hindu culture texts written by the great sages and our ancestors. Psychologically, if we look, any knowledge from our ancient times can be easily understood by adding some personal relevance around the subject to show it through storytelling, making it interesting and easy for the listener to remember. However, this concept given by our sages was not properly adopted by future generations, took only symbolic meaning without understanding it scientifically and due to lack of understanding of the original deep knowledge, a great blow was inflicted on the social, economic and spiritual spheres. Every knowledge, literature, concept written as some message is actually a deep scientific and technical concept, information about composition, medicine and surgery, advice on physical, mental and social health, nurturing and balancing of environment, life management and work management, political and economic considerations. The main objective was to create a socially, economically, spiritually healthy society so that the country and the world would progress at the same time with the theme “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”.

Advances in science and technology are the main reason for the growth of human civilization. India has been contributing in the field of science and technology since ancient times. Even today what we call “traditional knowledge” is actually based on scientific reasoning.

Veer Savarkar wanted, “Not only a particular caste, but everyone should raise the standard of living by developing modern technology using Vedic literature”.

Lokmanya Tilak had a very in-depth study of Vedic knowledge, a treatise can be written on his knowledge.

Hindu ancestors, sages put this great knowledge not only on paper but at that time with great skill and design many concepts were practically implemented on the ground. We can see various temples, metalwork, architectural beauty, mathematics, surgical methods….

Physics
The German physicist Werner Heisenberg once said … “About Indian philosophy, some of the ideas of quantum physics that seemed so crazy suddenly became more meaningful”.
The concepts of atoms, molecules and substances can be traced back to the Vedic age. Moreover, the concepts of astronomy, metaphysics and spirituality are described in the Rig Veda, the ancient Hindu scriptures of the Vedic period.

Why have Indians built thousands, so incredibly architecturally amazing temples around the world? Were they rich enough to spend money on this venture?

Yes, their eternal Sanatan Hindu culture gave them wisdom, intelligence, hard work, spirituality and most importantly progress in the field of research, the purpose behind which was to make humanity prosperous and peaceful.

The German philosopher Gottfried von Herder once said, “The origin of mankind can be traced back to India where the human mind got its first shape of wisdom and virtue.”These copper plates absoBS

2. The Vedas are considered to be one of the most sacred scriptures of the Hindu religion. They are claimed to be among the world’s oldest scriptures. Veda is said to be the treasure vault to wisdom and knowledge. It is noted that Vedas are eternal and vibrate in the outer dimensions of the world of Brahmans.   They are said to be the point of creation. The term ‘Veda’ means knowledge, which is the ulterior idea of the existence of humanity.  Vedas  manifest the cause, function, and response of human existence in a way that promotes liberation or Nirvana.  They are concerned with the nature of the Divine and are not restricted to one particular God or idea. Ancient sages believed that the concept of ‘Vedas’ has always existed and is beyond the idea of time. The Vedas were usually orally passed down from one generation to the other until they were written on record between 1500c to 500 BCE, the so-called Vedic Period of India.

3. Rigveda is regarded as one of the most sacred texts of Hinduism. It has fascinated scholars and historians due to its significance and antiquity. It is a collection of ancient Indian collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns. The Rigveda is divided into ten books which are known as Mandalas It is a collection of 10,600 verses and 1,028 hymns It is the oldest text in any Indo-European language It has originated from early as 1700 BC According to tradition, Vyasa is the compiler of the Vedas, who arranged the four kinds of mantras into four Samhitas (Collections).

4. The  Atharva Veda  ( Sanskrit :  अथर्ववेदः ,  Atharvavedaḥ  from  atharvāṇas  and  veda , meaning "knowledge") is the "knowledge storehouse of  atharvāṇas , the procedures for everyday life“.  The text is the fourth  Veda , and is a late addition to the Vedic scriptures of  Hinduism . [ The Atharvaveda is a sacred text of Hinduism and one of the four Vedas, often called the "fourth Veda". According to tradition, the Atharvaveda was mainly composed by two groups of rishis known as the Atharvanas and the Angirasa . In the Late Vedic Gopatha Brahmana , it is attributed to the Bhrigu and Angirasa .  The other three Vedas deal with matters of other world, the gods, nature, and the supernatural, while Atharva Veda is more worldly. It seeks to solve the problems of this world and its common people. It deals with a topic like leading a long and healthy life, to avoid sorrow, to ward off illness, to vanquish or win over the enemy, et

5. The  Samaveda  ( Sanskrit :  सामवेद ,  romanized :  sāmaveda , from  sāman  "song" and  veda  "knowledge"), is the Veda of melodies and chants Sama Veda"  is an ancient Hindu scripture and one of the four main  Vedas  of Hinduism. It is a collection of melodies and chants, and is also called the "Book of Song," "Veda of Chants" or even "Yoga of Song." It is basically the words of the " Rig Veda " put to music

6. The  Yajurveda  ( Sanskrit :  यजुर्वेद ,  yajurveda , from  yajus  meaning "worship ",  and  veda  meaning "knowledge") is the Veda primarily of prose mantras for worship rituals .  An ancient Vedic Sanskrit text, it is a compilation of ritual-offering formulas that were said by a priest while an individual performed ritual actions such as those before the  yajna  fire .   Yajurveda is one of the four  Vedas , and one of the scriptures of  Hinduism . The exact century of Yajurveda's composition is unknown, and estimated by Witzel to be between 1200 and 800 BCE, contemporaneous with  Samaveda  and  Atharvaveda . The Yajurveda is broadly grouped into two – the "black" or "dark" ( Krishna ) Yajurveda and the "white" or "bright" ( Shukla ) Yajurveda . The term "black" implies "the un-arranged, unclear, motley collection" of verses in Yajurveda , in contrast to the "white" which implies the "well arranged,

8. Mahabharata Mentions The Concept Of Cloning, Test Tube Babies, And Surrogate Mothers The fact that in the Mahabharata, Gandhari had 100 sons is pretty well known. But what’s unknown is the scientific explanation behind her giving birth to a 100 kids. Each ‘ Kaurava ’ was created by splitting the single embryo into 100 parts and growing each part in a separate kund (container). This is identical to the cloning process today. The birth of Karan, who was ‘born from the “characteristics adopted from men of her choice” also has striking resemblance to the present-day test tube baby concept.

9. According to ancient studies, the second toe is directly related to pregnancy. Therefore, the ring in the toe creates acupressure, which leads to a healthy pregnancy. It also helps the bride to be mentally stable. The specific nerve where the ring produces acupressure is connected to the uterus. This keeps the parameters in and around the uterus stable, making the pregnancy healthy and stable. Our ancestors never used the surgical method “ caesarian ”. In recent times, its use for delivery has increased as many women have stopped preferring the ring. Menstruation is also controlled by time intervals resulting in a married woman having a higher chances of conceiving. It regenerates the reproductive organs and reduces gynecological problems. Silver is a good carrier, so putting a ring in the ring helps to get polar energy from the earth and then distributes it to make the body fresh and energized. One culture sows and another culture benefits, all cultures in the world should learn to respect this great culture without mocking this great Indian culture.

10. Sushruta Samhita , The Oldest Medical And Surgical Encyclopedia Known To Mankind Written during  the 6th century BC, the Sushruta Samhita contains 184 chapters with descriptions of 1,120 illnesses, 700 medicinal plants, 64 preparations from mineral sources and 57 preparations based on animal sources. Its author Sushruta is also considered to be the first ever human to perform medical surgeries on humans.

11. The book also has vast details on embryology, human anatomy, along with instructions for venesection , the positioning of the patient for each vein, and the protection of vital structures ( marma ). The oldest documented evidence (9000 years) for the drilling of human teeth of a living person was found in Mehrgarh along with the evidences of orthopedic surgeries.  

12. In ancient Vedas Chemistry was called as “ Rasayan Shastra ”, ' Science of liquids (Chemical) ' was called as Rasa- Vidya , Rasatantra and Rasakriya . Vedas Mentioned about chemical laboratories and chemicals works, which were called “ Rasakriya-Nagaram ” and “ Rasakriya-Shala ” which means 'School where Chemical are activated'. RASAYANA is composed of two words i.e RASA means “ fluid or juice ” and AYANA means “ pathway ”.

13. RIG VEDA mentions metals like gold , copper , silver and bronze . A golden earring and jwellery are mentioned thus : HIRANYAKARNAM MANIGAREEVAM SUKLA YAJURVEDA mentioned about tin and lead also : HIRANYAM CHA MEAYASCHAME SEESAM CHAME THRUPUSCHAME SYAAMAN CHA ME LOHAM CHA ME . Matter or DRAVYA consisting of 9 elements ---- Earth ( Prithvi ) Water ( apah ) Fire( tejas ) Air( vayu ) Ether( aakaash ) Time( kala ) Space(dish) Self( aatma ) Mind( maanas )

16. ‘Hanuman Chalisa ’ Precisely Calculates The  Distance Between Earth And Sun “ Yug sahasra yojana par bhanu , Leelyo taahi madhura phal jaanu ”  

17.   Hence, “ yug sahsra yojana ”, the first 3 words mean 12000*12000000*8 = 96000000 miles or 153,600,000 kilometers The above excerpt is from the hanuman chalisa and translates to: ‘[when] hanuman travelled thousands of kilometers to swallow it thinking of it as a fruit’. The word-to-word translation of the same excerpt reveals the distance that hanuman travelled.  1 yuga = 12000 years 1 sahsra yuga = 12000000 years Also, 1 yojan = 8 miles Interestingly, the actual distance from earth to sun is 152,000,000 kms . Bafflingly, there’s error of just around 1%.

18. Vedas and Electric cell Maharishi Agastya and his wife Lopamudra are celebrated author of some hymns in the Sanskrit text Rigveda and other Vedic literature . The ancient text of Agastya Samhita written by Maharishi Agastya describes the method of making an electric battery . For generating electricity Maharishi Agastya has used following materials. One Earthen pot Copper plate Copper sulphate Wet saw dust Zinc amalgam

Cover it first with copper sulphate and then with moist sawdust. After that put a mercury- amalgamet zinc sheet on top of the sawdust to avoid polarization. The contact will produce an energy known by twin name of mitra-varuna water will split by this current into pranavayu and udanavayu . A chain of hundred jar is said to give a very effective force.

20. Vedas and Newton’s Laws of Motion ACHARYA Kanaad has mentioned in Vaishehika philosophy that the word karma is related to motion. According to him motions are of 5 types: Upward Motion Downward motion Motion due to release of tensile stress Shearing motion General type of motion Newton’s law of motion published those laws in a book named “ Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematia ” in 5 th July, 1687. but scientist and philosopher Maharishi Kanaad had discovered the laws of motion long before newton

21. 1 st Law of Motion Maharishi Kanaad : वेगः निमित्तविशेषात कर्मणो जायते | (Translation: Change of motion is due to impressed force.) Newton: The change of motion is due to impressed force. The law states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. 2 nd Law of Motion Maharishi Kanaad : वेगः निमित्तापेक्षात कर्मणो जायते नियतदिक क्रियाप्रबन्धहेतु | Translation :  Change of motion is proportional to the impressed force and is in the direction of the force. Newton: the change of motion is proportional to the motive force impressed and is made in the direction of the right line in which the force is impressed 3 rd Law of Motion Maharishi Kanaad : वेगः संयोगविशेषविरोधी | Translation :  Action and reaction are equal and opposite. Newton: to every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction.

22.  Vedas Explained The Science Behind The Rather ‘Feared’ Eclipses While the world feared the eclipses and associated all types of paranormal occurrences with the phenomenon, Vedas already had a very proper and scientific explanation. The below excerpt is also proof that they knew that the moon wasn’t self illuminated.    Rig Veda 5.40.5 “O Sun! When you are blocked by the one whom you gifted your own light (moon), then earth gets scared by sudden darkness.”

23. During an eclipse, the sun is obstructed by the moon or the earth, so that the wavelengths of ultraviolet rays and blue light do not reach the earth sufficiently. Therefore, the level of bacteria in cooked food increases. If we eat the same food, it can lead to illness. Therefore, our sages suggested that food should not be cooked or eaten during that time. Kush or Darbha grass is kept with food items, the nanoparticles of which destroy the toxic rays.

24. Our body has its own magnetic field, also called the heart’s magnetic field. Similarly, the earth also has its own magnetic field, which extends from south to north. If we sleep with our head facing north, we are letting our magnetic field become asymmetrical in the earth’s magnetic field. This can lead to problems related to blood pressure and your heart has to work harder to overcome this disparity of magnetic fields. Why one should not sleep with head facing north?

26. Aryabhatta’s Deduction Of The Value Of Pi According to documented history, the irrationality of pi was proved in Europe only in 1761 by Lambert. The great Indian mathematician Aryabhata worked on the approximation of the value of pi ( ), and concluded that  is irrational and its value is approximately 3.1416. He did this in 499 Common Era at the age of 23.

27. First Ones To Measure The Circumference Of Earth Sadly, the Greeks enjoy the credit for this discovery while it was actually Aryabhata , who deduced a formulation proving that the Earth is rotating on an axis. Then, by estimating the value of pi to be 3.1416, he concluded that the circumference of Earth was approximately 39736 kilometers . The actual circumference of Earth, as deduced by scientists today, is 40,075 kilometers . How freaking cool is that!
