Guest guest Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 " What does the sun orbit around? " , they ask. This is a simple question, and can only be answered by someone with an upper-moderate knowledge of astronomy. The moon orbits the Earth. The Earth orbits the Sun. Shockingly, today's astronomers know that our Sun (on the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy) is orbiting the center of the Galaxy. Our galaxy is spiral (it kind of has dozens of " arms " spiraling outward), and our solar systems is on the edge of one of those arms. Why we don't notice the Sun moving is because once every hundred million (much longer, actually) years, it makes a complete revolution throughout the entire galaxy ( ! ). Perhaps on the Day of Judgement(Swarga Loka where our karmas ordain our births), we will be in a different part of the galaxy, where scientists believe the laws of physics may not apply. Most of the universe is dark matter (we can't even see this), as we are a freckle on the face of an otherwise very smooth universe. Even that freckle is mostly anti-matter, so we are a freckle within a freckle. Our solar system has only one star, it is speculated most other systems have binary star system (two stars orbiting each other). We are virtually one of a kind, except consider how gargantuan our freckle is. Regardless, even if a million other worlds like Earth with life exist in the universe, that's still a very rare gift (considering Lord Vishnu made the whole universe, not just our freckle). In closing the Sun does orbit something: the Galaxy. Who knows, maybe our Galaxy orbits a huge galaxy with the other galaxies. And that huge galaxy just thinks of our galaxy as another on of its satellites. And who knows how many huge galaxies there are, with their cluster of satellites, orbiting a super-galaxy. And super-galaxies orbiting ultra-galaxies. This is getting confusing......Sarvam Vishnu Mayam. jk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Dear jk ji, Amazingly the Vedic sages know about - what the sun orbits! Actually not only the sun but all the stars in our enter galaxy know as " Akasha Ganga " (Milky way) are orbits around the center of our galaxy which is a black hole (The door of hell guarded by two dogs as per Rig Veda) which is near the Moola (meaning, Root) star! The Veda terms the star as " Moola Barhis " meaning " One that spreads out from the root like spirals " ! Isn't that amazing?! Possibly they had a better and cleaner consciousness than as even though this much scientific advancements were not present in that ancient past. But currently we have whole lot of info collected, but there are not many consciousness that are pure enough to distill such great realizations from them. Point to Note: Look at the data we have in hand, and they will reveal what is hidden from as. (To have this talent in par with the sages makes one divine - but some how we miss it today) Love, Sreenadh , " jkhomefood " <jkhomefood wrote: > > " What does the sun orbit around? " , they ask.
