Mathematical Foundations of Physics From Vedic Periods: A Study and Ideas for Computer Applications

A profound knowledge into the birthplace of MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES will demonstrate that Mathematics needs the accompanying basic abilities: 1. Perception 2. Measurement 3. Deduction 4. DOCUMENTATION and 5. MODERNISATION, which incorporates information on PC applications.

We will concentrate in this article how VEDIC MATHEMATICS utilized the initial four measures in the Science of arithmetic, therefore making ready for the last rule for example Modernisation including computerisation.

1. Arithmetic AS A SCIENCE OF OBSERVATION FROM THE VEDIC PERIOD

Nature has its own Rhythm and Order. Astute creatures, the second they are conceived on Earth, begin watching the environmental factors around them and note the mood and request. Scientific Calculations start at the beginning phase of development.

Indeed, even creatures have the intensity of making a decision about existence. Creatures like the tiger, feline and so on judge the separations before they jump. This is evident when they seize their prey by hopping separations. A large portion of the occasions, they don't come up short. So also, feathered creatures sense separations and time and they travel a large number of kilometers crossing mainlands to join their mates.

Thus, it is the fundamental intuition of living creatures to watch, judge and take choices.

In any case, MAN, by righteousness of the one of a kind insight he has can recommend different estimating procedures and acquire uniform frameworks of estimations Space and Time. Arithmetic is a Science of watching the Universe around us and estimating things utilizing different methods. This procedure has begun from the early times of development, similar to the quest for food, cover and so forth. At present, there are exceptionally current procedures of arithmetic pervasive by the utilization of PCs; be that as it may, the premise continues as before.

VEDAS are the most antiquated sacred writings of the world and we can see that the establishments of science were laid in those days itself. A portion of the perceptions made by the individuals of Vedic age that have brought about precise scientific figurings are as per the following:

* Calculation of pregnancy period was done precisely. Normally, this could have been one of the early computations made by people. Maybe even clinical science could have begun from the investigation of labor and the ensuing consideration of the mother and kid.

* Man, subsequent to watching Earth for quite a while looked upwards and watched the sky. His sharp perceptions and recording of astral developments prompted the new science ASTRONOMY.

* All figurings in regards to trade of merchandise, resources, however done by deal trade had science as the base.

* Auspicious timings were determined based on chronological registries and schedules, which were altogether founded on arithmetical computations.

* Agricultural cycles, seasons and so on were completely founded on a musicality constrained by arithmetic.

* Life patterns of different species were additionally fixed for a specific period relying upon the species.
Subsequently, every action in the Universe is constrained by exact scientific computations. The Rishis (extraordinary Saints) of antiquated occasions, by their straightforward perception had the option to compute, record, and furthermore anticipate what's to come.

We will quickly perceive how Vedas regarded the above subject as told in the most punctual lessons of science.

2. Evaluation (FIXING OF SCALES).

In early ages, there were no fixed scales. Man utilized pieces of his body and their developments for estimations. He utilized strides and palms for estimating the separations, and afterward duplicated them by a few stages and reached out to huge spans like light years. In like manner he utilized sparkling of eyes for estimation of time and stretched out such little measures to a large number of years.

Estimation OF TIME:

As told in the above passage, ordinary squinting of the natural eye is taken as the most central unit of TIME. One NIMESHA is the time taken for flickering once for an ordinary natural eye. 15 NIMESHAS establish one KASHTA. 30 KASHTAS comprise one KALA. 20 KALAS establish one MUHURTHA. 30 MUHURTHAS comprise one day of present 24 hours and 30 such days establish one month.

A half year comprise one AYANA and a year comprises of 2 AYANAS. This one year is comparable to one DAY for Devas (Heavenly subjects or minor Gods). Like this by and by let us take 360 days (1 day=2 Ayanas for Heavenly subjects). This is one year for them. 12,000 such years are known as 4 Yugs (ages). (Ages). (Krudh Yuga, Dreta Yug, Dwaper Yug, and Kali Yug). The age we are living is the KALI YUG (BLACK AGE). One thousand ChaturYug is one day for Brahma, (The Creator). A MANVANTRA is one fourteenth of Brahma's single day.

Consequently one Manvantra is equivalent to: 71 Chaturyug, 542 Divine years, 10 Divine months, 8 Divine days, 7 Divine Murthas, 4 Divine Kalas and 8 Divine Kashtas, and 8.5 Divine Nimeshtas.

These computations were given by the Vedic Rishi named Parasarar; This is equivalent to 300 millions, 6.7 millions, 20000 human years + 6 chatur Yugs.

This enormous scope begins from the basic estimation of the glimmering of eyes.

These are evaluated by real figuring of the genuine development of the Sun and by watching periods of the moon. Full moon, new moon, and shrouds were precisely determined and along these lines numerical determinations were anticipated in early Vedic ages. The two AYANAS (Half years) are known as Dakshinayana (Sun's development from North to South) and Utharayana (From South to North) and seasons are determined. Different celebrations of India rely on these computations.

Moreover, arithmetical computations like increments, deductions, duplications, divisions, arithmetical movements, mathematical movements, parts and so forth are likewise given in different sections.

3. Inductions:

Let us think about the mathematical development of ceremonial locales.

Vedas had the option to take care of numerical issues in developing fire special stepped areas which have various shapes however possess a similar territory. The special stepped areas were developed of five layers of consumed blocks with the condition that each layer comprise of 200 such blocks and that no nearby layer will have a compatible layer of blocks.

The Sulba Sutras (simple formulae) contain the most punctual verbal articulation of the Pythagoras hypothesis as told in the accompanying Sutra."The slanting ones of an elliptical produces both which the flank and the even", which is only the Pythagoras hypothesis in the soonest structure.

Portrayal of the un-known as "X":

We know that in Mathematics, if two factors in an aggregate are known and the third isn't referred to, we name it as X and the second the issue is illuminated, we evacuate X and set the known number in its proper place.

Adi Sankara, the author of Advaita, the notable Indian Philosophy dependent on Vedic lessons has utilized this technique in clarifying the mystery of Divinity. Like X which can't be characterized in Maths, MAYA (Theory of Illusion) can't be clarified by words. Brahmam (The Ultimate God) has made this Universe utilizing Maya (hallucination).

The equation is Brahmam (God) + X=Universe. In this way, the obscure substance X= Universe-Brahmam.

Adi Sankara gave the idea of fantasy to clarify this. i.e.: Universe-Brahmam= Illusion (Maya). So illusion=X.

The second this Maya is disposed of, the Universe gets one with Brahmam. This is the fundamental educating of Advaita established by Adi Sankara.

4. DOCUMENTATION:

As of now told, Vedas were not in composed structure. The lessons were persisted to age by training. In any case, UPANISHADS were composed later as clarifications to Vedic lessons. Holy people have reported them in a precise way. KATOPANISHAD is one such Upanishad, as composed by Nachiketas, a youthful Vedic Scholar, in his contentions with Lord Yama (God of Death).

In like manner there are different sutras (formulae) which have given computations for estimating separations, mass, region, volume and so on. Any book on Vedic Mathematics will have the option to give an away from of the above subjects. Understudies with scientific information are mentioned to experience them and improve their insight dependent on Vedas.

5. MODERNISATION:

There might be such a significant number of AGES before, however today is the PC age. Everything is recorded in PCs and computerisation has changed the whole viewpoint of life. Be that as it may, there is a particular inconvenience in mechanical information. We can see that even phone numbers are to be recorded in the machine and alluded to from time to time. Present day understudies have lost their memory power. Be that as it may, understudies of Vedic period had the option to ascertain up to the most noteworthy degrees of computation just by memory. The present pieces, bytes, megabytes, and gigabytes are proportional to Nimeshas and kashtas of the Vedic time frame.

Vedic Mathematics has been remembered for the educational program in a couple of schools. Understudies are encouraged to consider and practice this part of study with the goal that they can ace the subject of science by mental force. By joining it with current supplies they can arrive at new statures in accomplishing their objectives.

DR B.Sathyanarayanan,M.Sc (Physics), CAIIB, Ph.D in mental directing was a ranking director of a significant nationalized bank and got Voluntary Retirement from Service in the year 1997 at 50 years old with an expectation to serve in the scholastic, strict and social fields. He is matured 70 now and his administrations are as per the following:

He began SPOKEN ENGLISH course and several understudies were profited by it. A few understudies are getting the instructing requiring little to no effort due to the help stretched out by him. An intriguing viewpoint is that, understudies are originating from far away places and there is no segregation of standing or religion and the preparation incorporates Muslim and Christian understudies moreover. Presently he intends to offer instructing to fizzled and average understudies at an exceptionally ease. A book is likewise composed by him requiring little to no effort to help the educators who need to instruct English.Because his primary subject is Physics, he is showing Physics as a meeting Professor at Sri Sankara Arts and Science College, Enathur Kanchipuram. His preferred subjects incorporate Nuclear Physics, Theory of relativity, Quantum Mechanics,He is an inventive essayist and is distributing the magazines ULAGA TAMIL ARANGAM In Tamil and PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE in English. Both contain fantastic articles on Philosophy,Science, religion, sonnets, short stories and plays in Tamil and English separately..

He got a preparation in HIV/AIDS intercession with the Christian Medical College, Vellore. He began the N.G.O "SAGODHAR" (Society for Advocacy and Global Organization Dedicated for HIV/AIDS Research). He is related with a few different N.G.Os working in this field and he is helping HIV/AIDS influenced men, ladies and kids. He is without giving mental advising on these issues.
