Brief description: From the flat earth to the sun's chariot, traditional

spiritual texts often seem wedded to outmoded cosmologies that show, at

best, the scientific limitations of their authors. The Bhagavata Purana, one

of the classical scriptures of Hinduism, seems, at first glance, to be no

exception. However, a closer examination of this text reveals unexpected

depths of knowledge in ancient cosmology. Mysteries of the Sacred Universe

shows that the cosmology of the Bhagavata Purana is a sophisticated system,

with multiple levels of meaning that encode at least four different

astronomical, geographical, and spiritual world models.

 

By viewing the text in the light of modern astronomy, Richard Thompson

shows how ancient scientists expressed exact knowledge in apparently

mythological terms. Comparison with the ancient traditions of Egypt and the

Near East shows early cultural connections between India and these

regions-including a surprisingly advanced science. However, quantitative

science is only part of the picture. Mysteries of the Sacred Universe also

offers a clear understanding of how the spiritual dimension was integrated

into ancient Indian cosmology.
