5. India is a pioneer in using ‘Mathematics’ in Science!
→
In the year 1658,
there was a French Mathematician named ‘Peare Di Farma’, once he gave a problem
to his friend ‘Barnard Frenikle Di Besi’ to solve. The problem was ‘if a and b
are two natural numbers, then find 61a2 + 1 = b2 ‘. Till
many decades this problem haunted the mathematicians but later in the year1732
a great mathematician named Leonard Yuler solved it. But after some years
people came to know that Bhaskaracharya, an Indian Mathematician of the 12th
century solved it long before and according to his calculations the value of a
and b were 22,61,53,980 and 1,76,63,99,049, respectively. He was the man who
used mathematics in khagolshastra. He wrote books like ‘Lilavati’,
‘Ganitadhyay’ and ‘Goladhyay’, people used to say that reading his books a
common man would be able to count the number of leaves in a tree!
6. The ‘Medical Science’ developed in
India!
→
The science of
Medicine was started approximately from 3000 A.D. in India. The Rushimunis of
that time studied the structure of not only the human body but also of other
animals. They created different antibiotics, medicines using herbs. The medical
science was called as ‘Ayurveda’ (The knowledge of Life). The benefit was this that the Ayurveda Medicines
didn’t have expiry dates! Still today, we
can gain knowledge of medicine by reading the 4 main books- ‘Charak- Sanhita’,
‘Sishrit- Sanhita’, ‘Ashtang- Hriday’ and ‘Ashtang- Sangraha’.
7. Ancient India
is a contributor of imagination of science which we today call ‘Science Fiction’!
→ Many a times we read the great texts of
Ramayana and Mahabharata, and often come across words like ‘Pushpak Viman’
which was a flying chariot, here comes the idea of an aero plane, not only this
but we also come across weapons of laser, missiles in the texts. Even though in
real life they didn’t appear, they still contributed to the imagination of
planes and missiles, etc. And that gives a great meaning because before an
invention the imagination of it is important.
