Since the living entities cannot realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead by material names, activities or qualities, He remains everlastingly unknown to the conditioned soul. TEXT 4 TRANSLATION When the living entity wants to enjoy the modes of material nature in their totality, he prefers, out of many bodily forms, to accept that body which has nine gates, two hands and two legs. Thus he prefers to become a human being or a demigod.

The mouth, genital and rectum are also different gates. Being placed into a body having these nine gates, the living entity acts externally in the material world and enjoys sense objects like form and taste. TEXT 9 gudam s'is'nam ihocyate TRANSLATION Two eyes, two nostrils and a mouthall together fiveare situated in the front. The right ear is accepted as the southern gate, and the left ear is the northern gate. The two holes, or gates, situated in the west are known as the rectum and genital.

During this period the Ksatrapas ruled Gujarat (or Madhya Pradesh) and these "Lord of the Greeks" officials acted for the Greek merchants living in the area. The particular "Lord of the Greeks" official Yavanesvara who we are interested in here worked under Rudradaman. Rudradaman became ruler of the Ksatrapas in around 130 AD and it was during the period of his rule that Yavanesvara worked as an official and made his translation. We know of Rudradaman because information is recorded in a lengthy Sanskrit inscription at Junagadh written around 150 AD. The Greek astrology text in question was written in Alexandria some time round about 120 BC. Yavanesvara did far more than just translate the Greek text for such a translation would have had little relevance to the Indians. He therefore not only translated the language but he translated the context too. Instead of the Greek gods who appear in the original, Yavanesvara used Hindu images.

Extractions: In Hellenistic Alexandria, the transmutation of metals had been practiced as a secret craft, and Greek and Gnostic writings described mysterious processes which were supposed to turn base metals into gold. The recipes of this alchemy were closely intertwined with colour codes, describing changes to the superficial appearances of metals and dyes as they were worked. By the early Christian period, they were translated by scribes of the Nestorian church, who transmitted their knowledge to the Caliphs of Baghdad. Nestorian missionaries also found a welcome in China from the 7th century AD, where they encountered an equivalent tradition of alchemy. Chinese alchemy can trace its origins back to the 4th century BC, where it flourished along with Taoism. Legend states that the alchemist Bogar travelled to India and established the practice there; reciprocating myth describes him as a Tamil siddhar who flew to China in a machine of his own invention and reincarnated as Lao Tzu, the founder of Tao. It seems clear Indian alchemy grew out of Tantric practices of the 4th century AD, reaching a zenith in the 12th century. Additional cultural input came from Greek sources, with Alexander's conquests and, as late as 120 AD, the mathematician Yavanesvara popularised his translation of a Greek astrology text, resetting the whole work using Hindu images adapted to the Indian caste system.

Extractions: LA VISIONE DI NARADA - Prima parte Capitolo VI 28. La storia di re Malayadhvaja e della sua devota moglie N el capitolo XXVIII del Quarto Canto del Bhagavata-Purana Narada continua il suo racconto al re Pracinabhari « Il re Malayadhvaja ebbe una figlia e sette figli che divennero i signori della terra dei Dravida . I suoi figli ebbero migliaia di discendenti e tutti loro proteggono il mondo per la durata dellintero Manvantara e anche dopo. Il grande saggio Agastya sposò la prima figlia di Malayadhvaja ed ebbe da lei un figlio, Drdhacyuta , che a sua volta ebbe come figlio Idmavaha A questo punto il grande re divise il suo regno tra i figli e si ritirò in solitudine a Kulacala a venerare Krishna . E come lalone segue fedelmente la luna, così la sua devota moglie lo seguì, abbandonando la famiglia e la felicità domestica. Nella regione cerano diversi fiumi presso i quali il re era solito andare per purificarsi: faceva il bagno, mangiava bulbi, semi, radici, frutti ed erba, vivendo in modo molto austero ma diventando anche molto magro. Grazie alle austerità Malayadhvaja gradualmente divenne equanime di fronte alle dualità di caldo e freddo, felicità e dolore, vento e pioggia, fame e sete, piacere e dispiacere, conquistando in tal modo tutte le relatività, mise sotto controllo i suoi sensi, la sua vita, la sua consapevolezza e fissò ogni cosa nel punto centrale del Supremo Brahma. Restò così immobile per cento anni, quindi sviluppò una pura attrazione devozionale per
Extractions: Samjna, the wife of Vivasvan, the sun-god, gave birth to the Manu named Sraddhadeva, and the same fortunate wife also gave birth to the twins Yamaraja and the River Yamuna. Yamaraja is one of the mahajanas, the twelve persons authorized to properly maintain the human civilization, including Brahma, Narada, Lord Siva and Kumara, Manu and Lord Kapila, Bhisma and Prahlada, Janaka, Bali, and Sukadeva Gosvami (Vaiyasaki). Yamaraja is also dharma-vit. His name is Dharmarajam because he knows how to punish a person on religious principles. He is also called Antaka and Mrtyu. Yamaraja, or Dharmaraja, as the superintendent of death, has to judge the criminal living entities who have committed sinful activities throughout their lives. Consequently Yamaraja is expected to be most expert in judicial matters. Although Yamaraja is a controller, he is only a departmental controller of a few living entities. There are other demigods who control many other departments, but above them all is one supreme controller, Krsna. The omnipotent Yamaraja is as good as Lord Brahma, for while situated in his own abode or in everyone's heart like the Paramatma, he mentally observes the past activities of a living entity and thus understands how the living entity will act in future lives. He has the complete cooperation of the Supreme Lord, who is situated in everyone's heart, and therefore, by the grace of the Supersoul, he can see the past, present and future of a living being from within.

Extractions: Demetrius started the invasion of northern India from 180 BC, following the destruction of the Mauryan dynasty by the general Pusyamitra Sunga, who then founded the new Indian Sunga dynasty (185-78 BC). Demetrius went as far as the capital Pataliputra in eastern India (today Patna): "Those who came after Alexander went to the Ganges and Pataliputra" (Strabo, 15.698). The Indian records also describes Greek attacks on Saketa, Panchala, Mathura and Pataliputra (Gargi-Samhita, Yuga Purana chapter). To the south, the Greeks occupied the areas of the Sindh and Gujarat down to the strategic harbour of Barigaza (Bharuch), as attested by several writers (Strabo 11; Periplus of the Erythraean Sea, ch.41) and by coinage of the Indo-Greek ruler Apollodotus I.

Extractions: Before the end of the period of the Sulbasutras, around the middle of the third century BC, the Brahmi numerals had begun to appear. Here is one style of the Brahmi numerals.. These are the earliest numerals which, after a multitude of changes, eventually developed into the numerals 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 used today. The development of numerals and place-valued number systems are studied in the article Indian numerals. The Vedic religion with its sacrificial rites began to wane and other religions began to replace it. One of these was Jainism, a religion and philosophy which was founded in India around the 6th century BC. Although the period after the decline of the Vedic religion up to the time of Aryabhata I around 500 AD used to be considered as a dark period in Indian mathematics, recently it has been recognised as a time when many mathematical ideas were considered. In fact Aryabhata is now thought of as summarising the mathematical developments of the Jaina as well as beginning the next phase.

Extractions: by Manikant Shah Through this essay, I propose to give a brief history of Indian astronomy. There are a number of books and papers on this subject, which an average visitor to our website may not have easy access to, or time to consult. Through this portal of the Mandala we try to briefly highlight the History of Indian Science and Technology on various themes, as also review relevant books. This account of the history of Indian astronomy brings out three things clearly: 1) In contrast to the Western Christian-Judaic culture where the man and universe originated just about 6000 yrs ago, the Indians had the concept of deep time; 3) they were aware of Greek science too and translated Greek works in Sanskrit. Rajesh Kochhar takes a look at the Pre-Telescopic Astronomy in India. Pre-Telescopic would mean the period that preceded the invention and the use of Telescope by Galileo in 1609. While introducing the subject he tells us that the ancient man's perception of the Universe was based on 'Seeing is believing'. Since the planetary bodies seemed to go round the earth, the earth was assumed to be the centre of the Universe. This approach is understood as the geocentric approach as opposed to the heliocentric approach which, on the contrary believes that the planetary bodies are going around the
