Science in Hinduism





1. Astronomical evidence in Vedas shows that Rig Veda is 
    composed around 23720 years B.C.
 
2. All the Nakshatras are named in our Vedas.
 
3. Amavasya (new moon day in English) is the day when the Sun 
    and Moon reside together. The word Amavasya is more scientific 
    name  where 'ama' means together and  'vasya' is to reside.
 
4. Vedas have arranged Lunar as well as Solar, seasonal  months.
 
5. The Solstices and Equinoxes were known and the Sun's position 
    on these is recorded.
 
6. The record of season described in Rig Veda about rainy seasons 
    and the beginning of the new Year in Yajur  Veda shows the 
    development of astronomical knowledge in Hinduism  dated 25 
    000 years ago.
 
7. Nasadeeya Sukta tells how the Universe came into being, a 
    concept same as the recent  Big Bang Theory.
