Amazin math.. contd..

This is more of astronomy where the age of the universe till date is said,then the geographic locations where the ritual is being performed and then the physical conditions of the said location.
Ground level stats:
There are 4 yugas described in our scriptures.
Kali yuga having 432000 years
Dvapara yuga consisting of 864000(432000*2) years
Treata yuga of 1296000(432000*3) years
Sathya/kritha yuga with 1728000(432000*4) years
Adding all of ‘em together 1 chaturyuga or the combined duration of the above epochs are 4320000 years.

Now we know that Bramha is believed to be the creator. The lifetime of bramha is 100 years,each year with 360 days each.
1 day of Bramha is divided into 2 parts called Kalpa where 1 Kalpa is the duration of the Day and the other is the duration of Night of a full day of Bramha’s.
In turn 1 kalpa is divided into 14 manvantaras or manus who rule their respective period.
Each manvantara consists of 71 chatur yugas…
After each manu there is a resting period or sandhi kala of duration of 1728000 years
Summing all these up…
1 Chatur yuga = 4320000 years
1 manvantara=4320000*71= 306720000 years
14 manvataras = 14 * 306720000= 4294080000 years
1 kalpa(14 manvantara+15 sandhi kala)= 4294080000 + (15*1728000)= 4320000000 years
2 kalpas or 1 day of Bramha = 4320000000*2= 8640000000 Years
360 days / 1 year of Bramha’s lifetime = 8640000000 * 360 = 3110400000000 years
Lifetime of Bramha (100 years)= 3110400000000 * 100 = 311040000000000 years…!!!!!!!
so the meaning of the sankalpa is indeed this calculation which gives us the present day age of this universe...

amazin math... puts all ya calcs to shame.....!!!

This has been buggin me for a loooooon time now…. It’s been nearly 2 months since I started working on this lik mad… n still am only half way thru… there are lotsa unanswered queries that lie within me…. Answers for which I’ve been seeking… but looks lyk it’s gonna tak a epoch to get them answered…unless I’m able to find satisfying answers prior that...
In olden days it was believed people, hindus rather were forbidden from tarvelling abroad… by crossing the seas… why or how this came about..what are the logical reasons behind such ideas is what I’m looking for… I don’t believe things without a proper, sensible reason, and I don’t violate such customs/traditions whatever u may wanna call them.. until MY reason reasons me out…
In order to get to either following these beliefs or violate them asap… I’d prefer to go behind the cause…
So that’s how I get here.. now this post might b quite boring if u hate maths… and people who love maths…. Jus pick up a pen and a piece of paper.. or open up an excel sheet on your comp… calculators are of no use here.. belive me….
Now I got to asking a few learned people as to y people are forbidden from crossing the seas…
Answer 1 :
There is a ritual called a sankalpa(m) which is done by all hindus before performing any religious act.. and as per this sankalpa.. the karma bhoomi or land of karma is the land south of Mt.Meru… -- why is only this land d karma bhoomi is my next question for which I get no logical answer..
Answer 2:
In olden days people needed to travel by sea…(before the tym of flights).. sea voyages wer risky.. vegetarians had lotsa issues finding veg food in foreigh lands… change of climate affected people.. sea voyages for months sucked n blah blah… I might accept this half heartedly.. quarter heartedly rather.. but that aint enuf… am not satisfied…

I got into getting to the roots of what this sankalpa meant… this is eatin up wat too much of my head..

This sankalpa is more like a preamble or a plan as to what ritual is gonna be performed…
For those who wanna knw the actual words.. here it is…
Mamopatha samastha dirithakshayadvaara

Off late i've developed a liking for these promotional calls..from credit cards..to holiday packages..to party offers..mutual funds and whattt not...!!! where these ppl get to know my mobile No. from is a mystery in itself.. guess i need to get hold of a detective agency 2 figure that out...

but why i luvv these calls id a differenthingy all2gether..!!!

i've started having fun @ the expense of these telecallers and their companies.. that they don't dare to call me back again.... he he...

today.. one-off day in office wen i did't hav a heavy workload n was findin ways to kill tym..my mobile goes off.. an unknown no. calling...

S : Hello,Gud mrng...

Telecaller(TC) : Sir,do u have a credit card..(it's a female )

S : err..xcuse me.. may i know who's on d line...wer u calling from..

TC : i'm callin from "some goddamn bank".. do u hav a credit card..?

S : mam, u jus called me up at 10:30 in d mornin on a fine tuesday... u r not bothered to ask me if i'm busy or free.. or if i have the tym to listen to you now... doesn't your bank teach you etiquette....

TC : sory sir,, R u free now.. ? do u have a credit card...?

[by now a couple of my colleagues have come over and d call is on loudspeaker... we'r havin fun rn't we.... rofl....]

S : mam, do you mind letting me know from where you've got to my mobile no.?

TC : it's in our database sir...

S : In your database....??? okay.. but i don't remember having published my personal mobile no. on your database... could you please recollect it for me.....

TC: errr. sorry sir.. i can't tell you that.. but we published the DB and not you...

S : WTH..... it's my no. and you guys publish my no. on your DB without my permission and now.... mam, could you please connect me to your manager...

TC : sir, your no. was given to us by !@#$%^ ... (tat's a cellular operator)

S : okay cool... now.. i need to talk to your manager about the credit card...and your DB.. please.... coz am planning to sue you both for breach of privacy......

TC : (silent)

S : hello..... err hello...

S : guess your bank might not have taught you the etiquette on how to strike a formal conversation with a prospective customer... but they sure have taught you to listen silently and not talk back when a customer is mad at you and is blasting you away....

S : hello.....

TC hangs up.. rofl.....

guess she'll never call me back again.. nor will some1 else from tat bank....



Am really loving gettin under these people's skin... am so bad.. i knw... but guess this is a better way than shouting @ 'em and calling 'em names..... silent .. soft killer i guess....

Cheers..!!
