An Innovative Model to Predict Earthquakes in Indian Peninsula Y
British Journal of Earth Sciences Research Vol.3, No.1, pp.42-62, September 2015 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) AN INNOVATIVE MODEL TO PREDICT EARTHQUAKES IN INDIAN PENINSULA Y. V. Subba Rao Visiting Professor, Department of Jyotish Rashtriya Sanskrit University, Tirupati, A.P., India ABSTRACT: Can earthquakes be predicted? So far, the answer is no. Scientists are unlikely to be ever able to predict earthquakes with any amount of certainty, according to the United States Geological Survey Apr 25, 2013. An Innovative Model for Earthquake Prediction (IMEP) proposed in this paper is a combination of Vedic Astrology (Vedānga), Varāha Mihira’s Brihat Samhita and scientific data of magnetic variations, structural geology such as fault zones, tectonic plates’ directions, loose soil areas of all the earthquakes occurred in Indian Peninsula shield over a period of 200 years. In the course of preparation of this paper, it is observed that the earthquakes occured at regular intervals of about 11 years and mostly during bright fortnight due to extraordinary astronomical phenomena occurring in the planets and special movements of the heavenly bodies. Vedānga and Brihat Samhita state that earthquakes are caused by eclipses of the luminaries. It is, therefore, plausible to predict earthquakes in a specific locality within a specific time limit utilising this model. However, as an initial step, the present model has been designed for application for India. The next earthquake in Indian peninsula is predicted to occur on Wednesday, the 16th March, 2016 on the basis of the proposed hypothesis model. -
The Zero-Point of the Zodiac of the Hindu Astronomers in Ancient India

All rights reserved. http://dx.doi.org/10.5303/PKAS.2015.30.2.709 THE ZERO-POINT OF THE ZODIAC OF THE HINDU ASTRONOMERS IN ANCIENT INDIA Amalendu Bandyopadhyay M. P. Birla Institute of Fundamental Research, M. P. Birla Planetarium, Kolkata, India E-mail: [email protected] (Received November 30, 2014; Reviced May 31, 2015; Aaccepted June 30, 2015) ABSTRACT In modern Astronomy the vernal equinoctial (VE) point is taken as the starting point for measuring celestial longitudes. Due to the precession of equinoxes, the above point is receding back along the ecliptic. As a result, the longitudes of fixed stars are increasing every year. In ancient India, the Hindu astronomers did not favour the idea of fixed stars changing their longitudes. In order to stabilize the zodiac, they had taken as the origin a point which is fixed on the ecliptic and as such is quite different from the VE point. This initial point being a fixed one, the longitude of stars measured from this origin remain invariable for all time. There was an epoch in the past when this initial point coincided with the VE point and thus the epoch may be called the zero-year. There is controversy over the determination of the zero-year. The reasons for the choice for the fixed zodiacal system by the Hindu astronomers as well as the epoch of zero-year have been found out on the basis of information available in various astronomical treatises of ancient India written in Sanskrit. -

Vaikuntha Ekadasi
Hindu Temple and Cultural Society of USA Inc. Sri Venkateswara Temple (Balaji Mandir) and Community Center 780 Old Farm Road, Bridgewater, New Jersey 08807 (908)725-4477 http://www.venkateswara.org/ Vaikuntha Ekadasi: Ekadasi in Sanskrit means eleven. Ekadasi is the eleventh day of the fifteen-days of the bright half (Sukla Paksha) and is also the eleventh day of the dark half (Krishna Paksha) of the lunar month. In the Sukla Paksha the moon grows from new moon to full moon and in the following half it diminishes from full moon to new moon. Ekadasi day is auspicious to Lord Vishnu. The Ekadasi day that falls during the Sukla Paksha of Dhanurmasa/Margahi (December middle to January middle) is very special. On this day, it is believed, that the gates of Vaikuntha are ceremoniously open for devotees to enter. This day is celebrated as Vaikuntha (Abode of The Lord Sriman Narayana) Ekadasai in all the Vaishnava Temples. Stories from Puranas say that Lord Krishna discussed the special significance of Vaikuntha Ekadasi in one of His conversations with Yudhishthira. The Lord says that there is no better fasting day than the Ekadasai of the light fortnight of the Margazhi (Dhanurmasa) month. Who so ever is able to strictly observe this sacred Ekadasai, with worship, meditation, and fasting achieves complete liberation from the cycle of life and death. In some Vaishnava Temples, they have Vaikuntha Dwaram (special doors that are symbolic of the doors to Vaikuntha) and are kept open on Vaikuntha Ekadasai day. Pilgrims pass through this gate on this auspicious day. -
