The Siddhāntasundara of Jñānarāja
Author: Jñānarāja
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421414422
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
The first English translation of this major work of classical Indian astronomy and mathematics. A treasure for anyone interested in early modern India and the history of mathematics, this first English translation of the Siddhāntasundara reveals the fascinating work of the scholar-astronomer Jñānarāja (circa 1500 C.E.). Toke Lindegaard Knudsen begins with an introduction to the traditions of ancient Hindu astronomy and describes what is known of Jñānarāja’s life and family. He translates the Sanskrit verses into English and offers expert commentary on the style and substance of Jñānarāja's treatise. The Siddhāntasundara contains a comprehensive exposition of the system of Indian astronomy, including how to compute planetary positions and eclipses. It also explores deep, probing questions about the workings of the universe and sacred Hindu traditions. In a philosophical discussion, the treatise seeks a synthesis between the cosmological model used by the Indian astronomical tradition and the cosmology of a class of texts sacred in Hinduism. In his discourse, which includes a discussion of the direction of down and adhesive antipodeans, Jñānarāja rejects certain principles from the astronomical tradition and reinterprets principles from the sacred texts. He also constructs a complex poem on the seasons, many verses of which have two layers of meaning, one describing a season, the other a god's activities in that season. The Siddhāntasundara is the last major treatise of Indian astronomy and cosmology to receive serious scholarly attention, Knudsen’s careful effort unveils the 500-year-old Sanskrit verses and shows the clever quirkiness of Jñānarāja's writing style, his keen use of mathematics, and his subtle philosophical arguments.

Paradise Found

Book Description
The Cradle of the Human Race at the North Pole is a book by William Fairfield Warren, first published in 1885. In this book, Warren puts forth his belief that Atlantis, the Garden of Eden, Avalon, and a couple of other mythical lands were all once situated at the North Pole, noting that Homer, Vigil, and Hesiod all placed Atlas at the 'ends of the earth'. If the science of all this has now been corrected (with the discovery of plate tectonics, and the filling in of the polar maps), the books also contains reviews of the folklore of the subjects like the tree of life, the world mountain, and of course, Eden.

Ornament of Abhidharma
Author: Chim Jampalyang
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 0861714628
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 1368
Book Description
The single greatest Tibetan commentary—never previously translated—on one of the most well-known and cited works of classical Indian Buddhism. This work by a scholar of the Kadam school is the most authoritative Tibetan commentary on Vasubandhu’s Treasury of Abhidharma (Abhidharmakosa). In terms of stature and authority, Vasubandhu’s Treasury rivals Buddhaghosa’s contemporaneous Path of Purification and deals with such central themes as the dynamics of emotions and karma, of mental and meditative states; it treats both the cosmos and the life within. Chim Jampalyang’s exposition of it is the greatest flowering of Abhidharma studies in Tibet. Usually referred to as the Chimzö, it is to this day a key textbook in the great monastic universities. A veritable encyclopedia, it spans all areas of classical Indian Buddhist knowledge and is an indispensable reference for scholars of Buddhism. The Library of Tibetan Classics is a special series being developed by the Institute of Tibetan Classics to make key classical Tibetan texts part of the global literary and intellectual heritage. Eventually comprising thirty-two large volumes, the collection will contain over two hundred distinct texts by more than a hundred of the best-known Tibetan authors. These texts have been selected in consultation with the preeminent lineage holders of all the schools and other senior Tibetan scholars to represent the Tibetan literary tradition as a whole.

The Rakshin Roulette
Author: N. N. Rakshin
Publisher: XinXii
ISBN: 3987620234
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 454
Book Description
Joe Biden is not a democrat. A democrat is a person who buys roulette wheels in Las Vegas or Monaco. For what? For sortition, for real democracy. No Sortition means No Democracy. This book might be of interest to anyone who seeks The Etymology Dictionary of the Aryan Language. For example Moscow or "Moskva" is an Aryan word - "Mskv". "M" is many, "sk" is a bend, a crook, "v" is a river. Moscow is a serpentine river. "Ar" means a shooting arc or the one who shoots with an arc. The Aryans invented the bow. The word "Aryans" means "archers". London (Lndn) means a river (dn) that flows (l) backwards (n). Africa means people who carry (br) spears (k). The name Emmerich (Mrk) means a mighty (m) king (rk). So America (Mrk) means a Mighty Kingdom. I'm sorry to say America has never had an experiment in democracy. The United States is not a democratic country, and for this reason there is no Democratic Party in this country. The word "steppe" is of Aryan origin. The steppe is the site (st) for grazing animals (p). The word "star" (str) is the site (st) of puncture (r). Democracy is equal opportunities for all residents of the country to become a ruler. Election does not give equal opportunities. Whoever has more money advertises himself more. Whoever advertises himself the most is known to all voters. Whom the voters know, they vote for. Voters vote for the rich or the puppets of the rich. What gives equal opportunities for all residents of the country to become a ruler? Only tossing a coin, only sortition. There was no ‘union treaty’. There was a criminal offence of the Bolsheviks against Russia. There was no USSR. There was Russia under the rule of the Bolsheviks. The USSR was a fake by Satan. Yeltsin was the enemy of democracy and the executioner of Russia. The West is the Gang of the richest antidemocratic (plutocratic) countries. If Mr. Trump in the coming 3 years does not make the United States a democratic country, then in 5 years Nuclear Winter will reign on Earth.
