Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the perspective of Vedic scripture( commonly referred to as the Hindu scripture), the earth is flat. We are on an island called JAMBŪDVĪPA and there are more islands which are undiscovered due to our collective sinful karma. Jambudvipa itself hasn't been fully discovered yet, and we only know about a discovered part of what is called Bhārata-varṣa (which is within it). As per ISKCON founder Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada, our discovery of greater regions as that of a bull tied to a stake, which keeps going round and round, and so we mistakenly imagine the earth as a round globe. Come and lets journey together to know exactly how large the flat earth plane really is, and all the beings that live on it!

We are on an island called JAMBŪDVĪPA and there are more islands which are undiscovered due to our collective sinful karma. Jambudvipa itself hasn't been fully discovered yet, and we only know about a discovered part of what is called Bhārata-varṣa (which is within it). As per ISKCON founder Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada, our discovery of greater regions is as that of a bull tied to a stake, which keeps going round and round, and so we mistakenly imagine the earth as a round globe. This is primarily due to consequences of greed in us, that we feel that we are floating in space with noone else in a Godless universe. However, that isn't so. Our greed pushed us to make a magnetic compass(for example) and follow it's needle which supposedly changes with earth's magnetic field. However, the bhu-mandala ie earth plane, does not have any magnetic waves at all! Those are emitted by Rahu planet(greed/attachment/magnetism(since it attracts)) which is a shadow planet(and is the north node of the moon). The opposite of Rahu is Ketu planet(detachment/south node of the moon) forming the positive and negative axis of magnetism. So, the compass needle is actually pointing to this Rahu ketu axis of magnetism! And not the earth plane. For this reason, we keep going round and round like a bull tied to a stake, and are unable to discover the greater regions and are limited like a toad in a well, who cannot fathom the grandeur of the ocean! Come and lets journey together to know exactly how large the flat earth plane really is, and all the fantastic beings that live on it!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mysteries of the fifth Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam have long puzzled students of Vedic cosmography and astronomy. Confronted with a description of the universe that seems much at variance with the information provided by our senses and standard astronomical calculations, foreign observers and even Indian commentators from the middle ages up to the present have concluded that the Bhagavatam`s account elaborated in other Puranas must be mythological. On the other hand the same persons have been much impressed with vedic astronomical treatises the jyotisasastras which provide remarkably accurate measurements of the solar system.

Book excerpt: From the flat earth to the sun's chariot - traditional spiritual texts 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.

This book was released on 1998-06-30 with total page 787 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any divide between revelation and rationality, religion and logic has to be irrational. If religion and rationality cannot proceed hand in hand, there has to be something deeply wrong with either of the two. Does revelation play any vital role in human affairs? Is not rationality sufficient to guide man in all the problems which confront him? Numerous questions such as these are examined with minute attention. All major issues which intrigue the modern mind are attempted to be incorporated in this fascinatingly comprehensive statute. Whatever the intellectual or educational background of the reader, this book is bound to offer him something of his interest. It examines a very diverse and wide range of subjects including the concept of revelation in different religions, history of philosophy, cosmology, extraterrestrial life, the future of life on earth, natural selection and its role in evolution. It also elaborately discusses the advent of the Messiah, or other universal reformers, awaited by different religions. Likewise, many other topical issues which have been agitating the human mind since time immemorial are also incorporated. The main emphasis is on the ability of the Quran to correctly discuss all important events of the past, present and future from the beginning of the universe to its ultimate end. Aided by strong incontrovertible logic and scientific evidence, the Quran does not shy away from presenting itself to the merciless scrutiny of rationality. It will be hard to find a reader whose queries are not satisfactorily answered. We hope that most readers will testify that this will always stand out as a book among books – perhaps the greatest literary achievement of this century.

Book excerpt: Contrary to popular belief fostered in countless school classrooms the world over, Christopher Columbus did not discover that the earth was round. The idea of a spherical world had been widely accepted in educated circles from as early as the fourth century B.C. Yet, bizarrely, it was not until the supposedly more rational nineteenth century that the notion of a flat earth really took hold. Even more bizarrely, it persists to this day, despite Apollo missions and widely publicized pictures of the decidedly spherical Earth from space. Based on a range of original sources, Garwood's history of flat-Earth beliefs---from the Babylonians to the present day---raises issues central to the history and philosophy of science, its relationship to religion and the making of human knowledge about the natural world. Flat Earth is the first definitive study of one of history's most notorious and persistent ideas, and it evokes all the intellectual, philosophical, and spiritual turmoil of the modern age. Ranging from ancient Greece, through Victorian England, to modern-day America, this is a story that encompasses religion, science, and pseudoscience, as well as a spectacular array of people and places. Where else could eccentric aristocrats, fundamentalist preachers, and conspiracy theorists appear alongside Copernicus, Newton, and NASA, except in an account of such a legendary misconception? Thoroughly enjoyable and illuminating, Flat Earth is social and intellectual history at its best.
