Guest guest Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 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 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Sir , but I had read that each yug was spread across few lakh years Kalyug: 4,32,000 Dwaparyug 8,64,000 Treta yug 12,96,000 Sat-yug 17,28,000 but here entire history of 4 yugas has been accounted only in few thousand years. If some one beleives in scriptures then they would tend to beleive everything ( including the years ) and not believe partly and distrust the rest. I am just a young student and am no where near your experience and education , I have only stated what I knew ( or appropriately what I read ) till date.
