Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new text is a detailed study of an important process in modern Indian history. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, India experienced an intellectual renaissance, which owed as much to the influx of new ideas from the West as to traditional religious and cultural insights. Gosling examines the effects of the introduction of Western science into India, and the relationship between Indian traditions of thought and secular Western scientific doctrine. He charts the early development of science in India, its role in the secularization of Indian society, and the subsequent reassertion, adaptation and rejection of traditional modes of thought. The beliefs of key Indian scientists, including Jagadish Chandra Bose, P.C. Roy and S.N. Bose are explored and the book goes on to reflect upon how individual scientists could still accept particular religious beliefs such as reincarnation, cosmology, miracles and prayer. Science and the Indian Tradition gives an in-depth assessment of results of the introduction of Western science into India, and will be of interest to scholars of Indian history and those interested in the interaction between Western and Indian traditions of intellectual thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from book: " From the lubras," rather consciously ; " I gave them beef in exchange." " A very fair one," but a light suddenly striking upon my mental vision. " Where do the lubras get them from ? They toil not, neither do they spin ! " " I don't know for certain, sir," she answered, looking down, " but they're digging the potato crop, I believe, at Campbell's farm." Here was foreshadowed the enormous Warrnambool export, that immense intercolonial potato trade, which has latterly assumed such proportions, and which invades even this far north-western corner of New South Wales. What glorious times I had, gun in hand, or with our three famous kangaroo dogs, slaying the swift marsupial. In those days he was tolerated and rather admired, no one imagining that he would be, a couple of generations later, a scourge and an oppressor, eating the sparse herbage of the overstocked squatter, and being classed as a " noxious animal," with a price actually put on his head by utilitarian legislators. THE DEATH OF VIOLET. Though kangaroo were plentiful, they were not so overwhelming in number as they have since become. Joe Burge and I had many a day's good sport together on foot. Like Mr. Sawyer and other sensible people we often saved our horses by using our own legs. For the dogs, Chase was a rough-haired Scotch deerhound, not quite pure, yet had she great speed and courage. Nothing daunted her. I saw her once jump off a dray, where she was in hospital with a broken leg (it had been smashed by the kick of an emu), and hobble off after a sudden- appearing kangaroo. She was said to have killed a dingo at ten months old—no trifling feat. Nero and Violet were brother and sister. They were smooth-haired greyhounds—the ordinary kangaroo dog of the colonist—very fast; and from a distant cross of " ...

Book excerpt: As it is said that the discovery of the airplane took place in the modern period, but it is clear in various culture texts that even in the Vedic period and after that, in theRamayana, Mahabharata period, there were airplanes which were accessible to sage scientists. Scientists from different countries of Europe, America and other countries have written various books after doing various researches on the aircrafts of ancienttimes. The evidence of the presence of airplanes in ancient times becomes clear from the various airstrips and aeroplane instruments found by the ArchaeologicalDepartment. The research done in the laboratories of India and in different countriesregarding the book Varhad Vimana Shastra of Maharishi Bhardwaj, the most authentic of ancient times on the aircraft, also proves that the events described in this book and various Sanskrit books are true. After reading various books, I have presented a review study, in which the Vedas, Ramayana texts, Mahabharata texts and other Sanskrit texts, where the description of aircraft is described in brief. Along with this, the review study of the books which have been written by the scientists of different countries after doing their research have also been published in it. Even in the modern period, Shivkar Bapuji Talpade was the first to make an airplane for life, it also describes it. Along with this, the list of various research papers and various texts etc. This book will prove to be a book with ocean in the throat, giving knowledge regarding ancient aircrafts. Along with this, research scholars and students studying on various aircraft will also enjoy reading and will get a lot of information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is one of the most ancient civilizations. India is a land of many creeds; the cradle of mankind; the motherland of language; the mother of history; the grandmother of epics and the great grandmother of traditions. Our cultural heritage is ancient; vast; rich and blissful and its sources are—four Vedas; 18 Puraanas; 108 Upanishads; the Ramayana; the Mahabharata consisting of about one lakh verses; the Agamas of the Jains; the Tripitikas of the Buddhists; the Guru Granth Sahib of the Sikh brothers and the holy words of the pious saints of different regions. As the time has passed; lack of knowledge about the same has failed to create self pride and esteem for these. Also; unfortunately; during the last few centuries; due to external attacks on the country; particularly those by the British; India has lost its capacity of guiding the world. The newly educated generation of this country today is totally unaware of the culture; traditions; philosophy and life values of this country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indians have a boasting habit that everything discovered in modern time has already been known to their ancestors. It can further be added that not only did scientific knowledge exist, but scientists of past civilization were much more advanced than the modern scientist. The truth gets unfolded when new modern discovery is explored such as embryonic Stem Cell discovery is scientifically scripted in the AADI PARV of MAHABHARAT. Growing babies outside the uterus and outside the human body. This is still to be discovered by modern science. Only patiently one must discover what is scripted in Vedik literature, understand and analyze it and co-relate with modern science. It is surprising to see the seeds of all sciences and technology in ancient Vedik literature. Modern science is searching for God Particle after confirming “particle physics”. In “Vaisheshik Darshan”, Maharishi Kanaad (7000 BC) has stated about particle Physics. Rishi Kanaad included Soul as having particles. Is it indicating as God particle? Read this book to find out!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islamic Radicalisation In India: Origin And Challenges Book in English by Arun Anand Two sets of developments have become quite visible over the last fewyears. While scores of activists belonging to Hindu organisations havebeen killed by radical Islamists; there Is also a growing clamour within a sectionof Indian Muslims to assert their religious identity aggressively and display itexplicitly. There are some crucial aspects of radicalisation of Muslims in India thatneed to be understood. First, unlike the western world, radicalisation in India ishappening not only in urban areas but also in far flung as well as remote ruralareas. The population in rural India needs to be watched and monitored moreclosely in this regard. Second, radicalisation in India has been ‘legitimised’ in thename of ‘protecting minority rights’ by many political parties for garneringMuslim votes. Their regressive stand on issues like hijab and silence on thekilling of Hindu activists by radical Islamists further perpetuates radicalisation.Third, as a society we are refusing to learn lessons from the past. Radicalisationof Muslims led to partition of India in 1947. It is time not to be like that pigeonwho closes eyes thinking the cat doesn't exist and ends getting eaten up.

Book excerpt: India has a rich history of scientific accomplishments. In the fifth century, nearly one millennium before Copernicus, the Indian astronomer and mathematician Aryabhata theorized that the earth spins on its axis. Likewise, in the twentieth century physicist Meghnad Saha’s ionization equation opened the door to stellar astrophysics. But India’s scientific achievements have occurred as flashes of brilliance rather than as a clear trajectory of progress. So how did India, with its historic university system and excellent observatories, lose its scientific edge? Cosmologist, founder director of the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics, and science fiction author Jayant V. Narlikar tracks the highs and lows of Indian science across the millennia, distinguishing fact from fiction. Through a lively narrative of breakthroughs and failures, he explores the glories of India’s scientific advances and questions the more fanciful so-called discoveries. His essays are invigorated by his excitement for new findings, and he argues passionately for preserving the true scientific temperament instead of granting legitimacy to such pseudosciences as astrology. Above all, Narlikar raises issues that both the layperson and the scientist need to consider as India seeks to lead the world in information technology and biotechnology.
