What's wrong is that when it comes to science, Hinduism fails at every turn. According to your conception of the Hindu religion, you have yet to show us one single bit of Vedic "Science" which isn't patently false. Your arguments amount to pithy statements like "prove me wrong," and "waiting on your reply," which take the place of genuine scientific reasoning. The only person you've managed to convince is yourself.
There are (accredited) institutions of higher learning where science and faith go hand in hand. This does not mean that the faithful interpret their religions in ways that directly contradict science, and then seek to impose said views on science. You want to mix science and religion? Go to a Catholic university: they'll teach evolution, the big bang, and not a single iota of Vedic pseudoscience.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who notices. The bulk of Srev's posts are not his own work, but come from external (usually dubious) sources. I've also commented on the dishonesty of this practice.
Yes, that was me. Apparently even Srev's own presentation of Vedic science isn't consistent. The photon has mass, and it can be detected by the ludicrous "glass box" experiment by simply using a balance...but even a mole of photons wouldn't be detectable by a balance.
One wonders how any person in the right mind could not find Vedic "Science" to be utterly laughable.
Do you think they shoot one photon? Light carries septillionth of photons. I'd also appreciate it if you would stop with the personal attacks and bigotry. Why would a catholic university teach vedic science.....
Do you agree with the concept of energy conservation? Do you agree that the universe has no beginning and no end? Do you agree matter cannot be created out of thin air? These are all vedic concepts. Vedas believe universe is immersed in an eight fold shell and it will expand and collapse on itself. And this cycle is repeated.
Yeah Arunma, I'm sure you invented Newtonian and Einstein physics...... I don't use my own work.... Right?
Contributions of Vedic Science:
Bose wireless technology.
The concept of manufacturing crystals (sugar from sugar canes)
The making of camphor
The making of tin
Making of dyes like Anline and Indigo
Navigation in the seas. The word Navigation comes from the Sanskrit word Navigath.
Geometry and trigonometry come from Sanskrit words geometri and trigonometri. Do you deny the existence of Aryabhatta I & II?
Value of PI = 22/7
The universe is referred to as an Anda-Kadaagam (meaning Egg-shaped). The cross-section on an egg is an ellipse, as are the gravitational orbits.
Rig Veda says, “Neither the south nor left (north) do I distinguish, neither the east nor yet the west, Adityas. Simple and guided by your wisdom, Vasus! may I attain the light that brings no danger.”(6) This passage from the Rig Veda clearly establishes a central position of the sun where there is no east or west, north or south.
The discovery of magnets.
Kalaripayattu and Thang-ta Medicines and Martial arts
Ayurvedic medicines are even sold in the USA now.
Homeopathy for people who are allergic to antibiotics.
Astronomy – Rig Veda (2000 BC) refers to astronomy.
Physics – Concepts of atom and theory of relativity were explicitely stated by an Indian Philosopher around 600 BC.
Chemistry – Principles of chemistry did not remained abstract but also found expression in distillation of perfumes, aromatic liquids, manufacturing of dyes and pigments, and extraction of sugar.
Medical science & surgery – Around 800 BC, first compendium on medicine and surgery was complied in ancient India.
Fine Arts – Vedas were recited and recitation has to be correct, which gave rise to a finer study of sound and phonetics. The natural corollary were emergence of music and other forms of performing arts.
Mechanical & production technology – Greek historians have testified to smelting of certain metals in India in the 4th century BC.
Civil engineering & architecture – The discovery of urban settlements of Mohenjodaro and Harappa indicate existence of civil engineering & architecture, which blossomed to a highly precise science of civil engineering and architecture and found expression in innumerable monuments of ancient India.
Shipbuilding & navigation – Sanskrit and Pali texts have several references to maritime activity by ancient Indians.
Sports & games – Ancient India is the birth place of chess, ludo, snakes and ladders and playing cards.
The calculation of occurrences of eclipses
Determination of Earth’s circumference
Theorizing about the theory of gravitation
And last but not least Plasma and Super String theories in Ancient Vedic documents.
Determining that sun was a star and determination of number of plants under our solar system
Some proofs of advance knowledge that can be seen today.
In India itself, certain objects testify to the higher level of metallurgy achieved by the ancient Indians. By the side of Qutub Minar, a World heritage site, in Delhi, stands an Iron Pillar. The pillar is believed to be cast in the Gupta period around circa 500 AD. The pillar is 7.32 meters tall, tapering from a diameter of 40 cms at the base to 30 cms at the top and is estimated to weigh 6 tonnes. It has been standing in the open for last 1500 years, withstanding the wind, heat and weather, but still has not rusted, except very minor natural erosion. This kind of rust proof iron was not possible till iron and steel was discovered few decades before.
Takshashila University (in Pakistan now) was a great centre of learning where students from Iran and further west came to study.
Baudhayana, Apastamba, and other authors--- which describe geometry, or in Pingala's Chhandahsutra which shows how to count in a binary manner.
