History of Indian Mathematics

[stranger]

Indian:

I wnat you to make some comment on Aravindhan's remarks before you go on BS anymore.

Do you agree with his conclusions or not:

1) Yes

2) No

3) I dont know.

Pick one answer and give it to me NOW! Thanks!

I want an answer HERE, INdian!

Where the HELL ARE YOU

[SRS]

Haha, Indian, don't answer the clown. He is trying to divert attention from his badly shattered arguments.

[stranger]

Seems like "Indian" is hiding somewhere as he could not pick 1) or 2) or 3).

Who knows he might pick all the three too!

[stranger]

Haha, Indian, don't answer the clown. He is trying to divert attention from his badly shattered arguments.

Here is the best part of your argument!!!!

now read this sentence very, very carefully: if the ancient Chinese were able to approximate the value of pi, there is a very strong probability that the Indians also were.

Why do you think everybody is STUPID like you to buy your BULLSHIT?????

Chinese discovered gun-powder and so there is a great probability that Indians must have discovered that too!!!

If chinese could, why cant Indians????

What an Idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Surya]

Dr. Subhash Kak has a Ph.D, it does not matter what clowns like you think.

SO WHAT?????????????

Any idiot can get a Ph.D!

u obviously don't have one....

Yes, the Indians knew of gunpowder. This is no surprise if one accepts they were experts in chemistry. Read the following:

Military science - Gunpowder

In regard to military science, the Ramayana and the Puranas make frequent mention of Shataghnis, or canons, being placed on forts and used in times of emergency. A canon was called "Shataghni" because it meant the fire weapon that kills one hundred men at once. They ascribe these agniyastras, or weapons of fire, to Visvakarma, the architect of the Vedic epics. Rockets were also Indian inventions and were used in native armies when Europeans first came into contact with them. As per Dante's Inferno, Alexander mentioned in a letter to Aristotle, that terrific flashes of flame showered on his army in India. The Shukra Neeti is an ancient text that deals with the manufacture of arms such as rifles and guns. In The Celtic Druids (pp-115-116), Godfrey Higgins provides evidence that Hindus knew of gun powder from the remotest antiquity.

(source: Proof of Vedic Culture's Global Existence - By Stephen Knapp p. 27-28).

According to Sir A. M. Eliot and Heinrich Brunnhofer (a German Indologist) and Gustav Oppert, all of whom have stated that ancient Hindus knew the use of gunpowder. Eliot tells us that the Arabs learnt the manufacture of gunpowder from India, and that before their Indian connection they had used arrows of naptha. It is also argued that though Persia possessed saltpetre in abundance, the original home of gunpowder was India. In the light of the above remarks we can trace the evolution of fire-arms in the ancient India.

(source: German Indologists: Biographies of Scholars in Indian Studies writing in German - By Valentine Stache-Rosen. p.92). (For more information on Military science please refer to chapter on War in Ancient India).

So these are all argued, but not proved. That's fine!!

u obviously don't have one....

I have two. Can I perhaps mortgage one of them?

You for sure get one for being the SRS deputy.

[stranger]

u obviously don't have one....

Is that SO?!

How would do you know that?!

Is that because I am not an idiot for sure?!
