Egyptian civilisation was rich. Persians were richer. Today both don't exist, replaced by Islam.

Brahmagupta was an ancient Indian mathematician and astronomer who lived in the 7th century CE. He made many important contributions to mathematics, especially in the fields of number theory, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry.

He introduced the concept and computation methods of zero as a number, and defined its properties and operations. He also recognized that any number divided by zero is infinity, and that zero has no reciprocal.

He developed a method of multiplication called “gomutrika”, which is similar to the modern lattice method. He also devised algorithms for finding square roots, cube roots, and solving linear and quadratic equations. He studied various types of indeterminate equations, such as the Pell’s equation, which is of the form x² - ny² = 1, where n is a given positive integer. He gave a general solution for this equation using a recursive method. He also found integer solutions for other equations of the form ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are given integers.

He discovered many formulas and theorems related to geometry and trigonometry, such as the Brahmagupta’s formula for the area of a cyclic quadrilateral, the Brahmagupta’s identity for the product of two sums of two squares, and the Brahmagupta’s theorem for the orthocenter of a cyclic quadrilateral. He also gave approximate values for pi and the sine function.
He wrote two influential works on mathematics and astronomy: the Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta (The Opening of the Universe) and the Khandakhadyaka (The Edible Bite). These works contain many original ideas and insights that influenced later mathematicians and astronomers in India and beyond.
Brahmagupta was one of the greatest mathematicians of ancient India, and his legacy is still evident in modern mathematics.

I doubt many of us have heard the #GayatriMantra sung this way before. This is from an Indonesian film. It is not chanted like a mantra, which we normally are accustomed to, but sung beautifully. Exquisite.

I’m Hindu girl
I’m considered more pure and powerful during 7 days of the month and don’t enter the temple on my own will because I understand the Shastra and the scientific reason behind not entering the temple

There is a Kamakhya shakthi Peeth which is a natural formation in the shape of a Yoni (vagina)

What is pure, we don’t touch. And what we don’t touch, we call it a Taboo. She (a menstruating woman) was so pure, that she was worshipped as a Goddess. The reason for not having a woman go into a temple is precisely this. She is a living Goddess at that time.

The energy of the God or Goddess which is there in the murthi (idol) will move over to her, and that (the idol) becomes lifeless, while this (the menstruating woman) is life. So that’s why they were prevented from entering the temple. So it is exactly the opposite of what we think”

The energy during menstruation goes downwards into the earth, and in temple the energy is going upwards. This can bring discomfort in the body”.

And that is why we avoid going to temple
