Michael Witzel on Indian Astronomy

Recommended Posts

This asura from Harvard uses his Tabloid Electronic Journal of Vedic

Studies to abuse native scholars. And even said that Indian

Astronomy is next to Nothing. And his secular christology from Brown

Univ Prof. Pingree joins with me to conlude that Indians borrowed

Astronomy of Greek. When Prof. BN Achar confronted with evidence

that nakshatra-s are VEDIC, they cant mince a word.

 

Recently he was saying in Indictraditions egroup that MBh is

fiction, and even if astronomical references in MBh were to be true,

those were recorded by his Germanic aryan ancestors..

 

 

Let me put in this way. He is anti-scientific, " I am better than

thou type--aka Abrahamic God is there for salvation of mankid, all

others are DEVIL worshippers " , and anti-hindu.
