Bhaskaracharya 1

Introduction to Sage Bhaskaracharya Sage Bhaskaracharya is a renowned Mathematician and astronomer. He has written several books and proposed various ideas on several fields of maths and astronomy, which are even older than many other discoveries and inventions by those scientists of the western world. He has given proof for several theorems like Pythagoras. He gave new names to numbers, which can be counted quadrillion and even more. He has rendered several treatises for quadratic equations. His works on calculus are considered highly intellectual. He proposed that the earth is not flat, and even supported his ideas with several postulates. He even gave the distance between each planet and proposed orbital distance. He was the head of the “Astronomical Observatory in Ujjain” which was the learning center of India. He has used several instruments to calculate and to perform his experiments. He emphasized that “Mind” is the great master, and could perform several research and experiments by the power of the mind. Birth of Sage Bhaskaracharya: The birthname of Sage Bhaskaracharya is Ganesh Daivadnya. He was also called “Ganakchakrachudamani’, as he was highly intelligent. It has been found through his texts that his father Maheshwar taught him mathematics and astronomy. Bhaskaracharya resided in a hamlet of Vijjadveed. Unfortunately, the hamlet of Vijjadveed is currently unavailable. While he was young, he was exposed to several great sciences, Vedas, and other texts. He per...

Bhaskararaya Makhin If any one deserves special mention in the field of Srividya after Sri Adi Shankaracharya, it is undoubtedly Sri Bhaskaracharya. He descended to earth in the first half of the eighteenth century. He is known to have been such a great philosopher, scholar, commentator and an Upasaka that the only phrase suitable to describe him would be: `na bhUto na bhaviShyati’. Though he advocated Tantra, he was a devoted follower of the Shrauta path (the path ordained by the Vedas) and also was as much a Shaiva as a Shakta. Though a householder, his Vairagya and Jnana were greater than any accomplished Sanyasin. His works `Saubhagya Bhaskara’ and `Setubandha’ serve as encyclopedias in the field of mantra Shastra to this day. Though some of his views are not quiet agreable to the ShAnkara Vedanta, his immense respect for Acharya Bhagavatpada displays his final faith in Kevaladvaita. Sri Bhaskararaya, who needs no introduction, introduces himself (in his work `Saubhagyabhaskara’) in the following way: shriigambhiiravipashchitaH piturabhuudyaH konamaambodare vidyaaShTaadashakasya marmabhidyaH shriinR^isimhaadguroH | yashcha shriishivadattashuklacharaNaiH puurNaabhiShikto.abhavat sa tretaa tripuraa trayiiti manute taameva naathatrayiim || To establish Shakta Vidya in its pristine purity, Bhaskaracharya traveled through the length and breadth of the subcontinent and wrote many fine books.

Bhaskara 1 was an Indian Mathematician and Astronomer who was born in c. 600 BC at Valabhi, near modern Bhavnagar, Saurashtra, Gujarat, India. and died in the c. 680 BC. He was one of the most famous mathematicians from the 7th-century. His father taught him Mathematics when he was young. He worked as a scholar of Aryabhata’s astronomical school. The first mathematician who has written numbers in the Hindu decimal system was him. He Explored the work of Aryabhatta and worked on the Sine Function and gave a more approximate value of Sine.
