Namaste all! Dhanyavad Mukesh Ji for organizing another insightful Chintan session- really a lot to think about!
I always wanted to know more about the Hindu astrology aspect, past planetary science, and this session nicely balanced both. I came across a lot of new Sanskrit vocabulary (for me)- I was aware of some things and some names were familiar but I was unaware of their meaning and origin, so this was a very nice introduction and for me the most valuable part to learn!
There was obviously a lot to be covered in such a short time, so I personally felt it was rushed in some parts, but it definitely provided direction for self-study. A big dhanyavad to Nilesh ji 🙏🏻

Namaste, it was a great introduction to the exciting topic of astronomy. Yes, it was difficult to absorb everything but it covered all fundamentals for anyone who wishes to dive deep into astrology. 🙏
--
Namaste,
It was a totally engaging topic and brilliantly presented. Aaditya was totally hooked up and actually forgot to eat. 😀.(His spoon near his mouth waiting). I can now relate better to Nakshatra and our Hindu months and it makes me feel proud to know that our Rishis were super knowledgeable.
Since I was off and on listening, I would request to share recording if possible for the same. 🙏🏼

Thanks a lot to Nilesh Ji for an excellent session on touching the basics of astronomy and it's relations to the Hindu calendar with evidence. Very glad that we could attend yesterday's session.🙏🏻
The talk really helped understand some basic concepts of Indian astronomy. Always wanted to understand panchang as a kid. Have been following you for some time and find your work very fascinating. Have got both the books and started reading. Would love to meet/attend your session if you are in London. Please keep up the good work!
Thank you. Follow Intro to Indian calendar series I am building on this very channel.
So Nakshatras is the coordinate system of sky invented by Indian rushis. Your book 'Historic Rama' mentions all these things but just reading that was not enough for me to understand these things. This video helps a lot and now I understand the concept clearly.
My grandfather was an astrologer and he made us grandchildren learn the Nakshatras list by heart as it was very important according to him to know them in order, now I understand what was the importance of those Nakshatras for him.
Thank you.
Remembering/memorizing things, a lot of things plays a significant role in the development of one's intellect, the creativity of an individual. The fact is lost on the majority of modern Indians.
Namaste Nilesh ji 🙏💐
Mind blowing stuff.. Astronomy, ancient Indian narrative, geography, geology, maths, etc etc related to Ram Krishna's time and before, is completely mind boggling. If all the proofs and theories we had until now were like the brightest lights on planet Earth, then the proofs which you have provided are like our Sun.
Thank you. 🙏🙏
This is so mind bogling...I hated astronomy but now I am loving it. Nilesh ji apko bahut bahut Dhanywaad!
Fantastic presentation. I was having lots of doubts whenever I say Sankalp during performing my Pitru Tarpan every month. Several of my doubts clarified. I have heard some talks of Shri Nilesh Ji about Surya Siddhanth and AIT, but I really admire this enlightening presentation. My Thousand Pranams to Shri Nilesh Ji. Thanks..
Want to point out one more thing. Really surprised my Shri. Mukesh Ji's Son's doubt about no. of days in Solar month. Great and highly intelligent Child. My wishes for him.
Altogether, it's a great enlightening session about our Calendar System. Thanks..
You are great, brother. A true Brahmin. God bless you.
Namaste Nilesh Ji. As you take back Bharatiya wisdom to thousands of years ago...I jus want to go back those thousands of years, where my mind understands much of Bharatiya wisdom, including Veda, Shastra, Agama so on...and start seeing a bigger universe in my mind itself... what a pleasure it would be...
Thanks for your flow of Gyan Ganga like Bhagirath of Indian Bharatiya sanatana science 🙏🙏
Nilesh ji ... please accept my 'padabhivandanam'
🙏🙏
Nilesh, Your knowledge is incredible. You are too good. Regards, Yours sincerly, Dr. Vishnu Krishna Joshi
🙏🙏🙏
धन्यवाद निलेशजी।🙏🇳🇵
Dear Nilesh ji, Super interesting information, loved it. I watched some part twice to understand it. I still have to understand the last part when you showed the pole star from Southern Hemisphere. Amazing, my knowledge of Indian astronomy improved today. My mother always calculates days in in Indian calendar months. She’s so comfortable in that, now I can understand how intelligent she is.
Fantastic talk by Nilesh ji! I learnt so much and cant wait to share it with my son soon 😊
Incredible..👍🙂🌺😇🕉️👍
As always - show of knowledgeable 👍🙏
i was great fan of pn oak sir its glad you have taken forward his legacy
Thank you sir! I want to learn indian astronomy. Please keep uploading lectures related to the same.
Will do.
Excellent presentation 👏
Great Gyan, Pranam Guru Ji!
excellent will keep watching your other videos
this is the best comprehensive explanation i have found so far in my entire life so far... Thank you Nilesh Ji
🙏🙏 प्रणाम गुरू जी
Thank you Sir 🙏
Fascinating discussion amd inteoduction to Indian calendar Nileshji.
I have been following your videos for some time and it’s a pleasure to listening to you.
🙏
Thank you for conducting this session for novices like us. Reading your book on Ramayan and Mahabharat will be bit (?) easy now.
Really big fan of yours
🙏
Nilesh ji - this talk really helped me understand basics of Indian astronomy.
I have 2 of your books although I admit I have not read them (yet). But I have watched your other videos, and find them fascinating.
I hope to learn more (and secretly harbor the ambition to perhaps assist you in your research, in whatever limited capacity I can some day)
🙏
Thank you. Start reading books. Multiple readings required. New insight guaranteed with each reading and re-reading.
Great Analysis and scientific presentation. I am a fan of Nilesh Ji. Looking forward to see many such lectures where we get to learn a lot of new things linked to Indian history and scientific observations
🙏
Wonderful. Many take aways for me. I'm referring to a book called Sugam Jyotish Praveshika by Pandit Gopesh Kumar Ojha. After completing this 61 years old book I'll attempt reading Surya Siddhant. Nilesh sir, thank you so much for your guidance. 🙏
I learned a lot from this video.thank u neelesh jee.
बहुत अच्छा समझाया
Dear Nilesh ji, this is no less a revelation to me, thank heavens I found your video in which you explain/present it so beautifully, the importance and deep scientific knowledge of our ancestors which I almost lost! to understand and put it in practice. It is so important for all of us to realise and start reading the Shruthi's, and not just stick to Puranas.
🙏🙏
thanks a million for such a detailed session. i had read Dr.P.V.Vartak s' वैदिक विज्ञान आणि कालनिर्णय . but that time i had no knowledge of Indian calendar . so i had started basics.....and now after going thru' this session....i have given myself some homework ....like नक्षत्र पाठांतर . सूर्य मास नाम पाठांतर. ऋतु corelation . zodiac corelation.... so that when i read Dr. Vartak s' book again ....i understand it better...
you are taking Dr. Vartak s' work to the next level...not only that but you also carry the same attitude of explaining basics in such a wonderful way.....kudos to your effort..
this attitude of yours reminded me of Dr. Vartak s' approach of explaining with same कळकळ in youtube videos of Patanjal YogaSutras (uploaded by his son after his demise)
Thank you.
Those who have been inspired by Dr. Vartak,must share his videos, periodically, is social media
Many mediocre folks and even jackasses are touted as subject matter experts and gullible listen to them, otherwise.
Nilesh ji,
what is not mentioned in my blog is about the ह sound that is part of पुष्य नक्षत्र s' few पाद s.apparantly indicating the sound/vibration of नक्षत्र . in sanskrit ह is called महाप्राण. प्राणशक्ती is a vital force.... hence it seems that महाप्राण could be an amplifying force.....which wld be applied on the activities done on the गुरुपुष्यामृत day.....what say?
I studied these in schools in gujarati medium but forgot... Just because I studied it in gujarati I had to watch the video twice... First round was to understand the terminology and then to better understand that is when I remembered all...
Amazing Stuff .. Nileshji 🙏🙏🙏🙏
🙏🙏🙏
This sharing is so precious. Thank you very much. 01:25:20 what is the name for 'year' in Hindi/Indian language? Warash.
Even in Tamil we say Warasam.
Thankyou very very much Nileshji.Since the 9 days programme of Chinmay mission I attended...I'm so so fascinated to know more n more regarding this subject. I've seem many many videos of yours on utube. In this video you mentioned regarding your workshop of 10 days.Pls I would like to do all the workshops from basic if it's there anytime. Once agai THANKYOU VERY MUCH.
👍🙏
Thank-you Nilesh Ji. It is a pleasure to watch your videos.
Awesome
Superb presentation sir. Can we have videos of your presentation in oxford or Harward . It seems all scintific knowledge were drained from Bharat to west , if you have written a book to read panchang i would love to do it. We as an Bhartiya( you and genius people like ) you can make a Museum or a Vedic resrarch center or simillar to it. Rejuvenation of Nalanda or Takshila like University , So peple from west will come here to learn science and Holiastic approch towards it. Hats off too you and your team once again.
जरूरी उदाहरण तथा चित्र देकर बहुत सरल भाषा में समझने का प्रयास किया गया है, भूगोल या आकाशीय गतिविधियों को नहीं समझने वाले आम नागरिक समुदाय के लिए भी बहुत उपयोगी जानकारी साझा किया गया ऊ.
धन्यवाद और शुभकामनाएं.

Amazing lecture :) Clears up a few doubts about Indian calendar.
Thanks a ton
🙏🙏
very well explained! great teaching skills and appreciate your efforts in creating this material
Thank u sir it was a great teaching
It cleared many doubts . You are a great teacher . Thank you sir
Thank you.
This is just fanstatic.. Thank you Nileshji.. very very lucid... Time to go and know the 27 + 1 nakhsatras !!
Thank you Nilesh oak for this wonderful video.
Very informative and detailed enough to know about luni solar calender.
Precession of equinox
Nakshatras
Sidereal and synodic year.
थँक्यू very much
Wonderful presentation Nilesh ji !
Simply amazing...!
Excellent..Nileshji. It is an eye opener for me regarding our planetary system based calendar. Need to hear about something on Sun's movement around another point which talks about Yugas. As a reference there is a book named Holy Science by Swami Sri Yukreshwar Giri of 1894. According to that we are in 321 Dwapar year (1700 is the start of Dwapar) and now we are in ascending phase of Yugas that means we are in a phase when intelligence will be at enhancing phase till 10500 years from now and then it will start its downward phase as the Sun is moving closer to it Brahma and the Sun's path is like the petals of lotus. As this is an 108 pages book need more elaborate explanation on this from you. Thanks a lot to you again.
Superb thanks sir
Thank you for sharing your kowledge and inculcating interest in people.. When you say certain solar months are 29 and 32 days - what is the "day" in that context? how many hours are there in it - and what are end points - also in lunar thithi.. how do we know chaturdhi ends and panchami starts - in terms of time looking form earth's perspective?
ty for clearing the sidereal definition for me.
Thank you so much. Clears up a lot of things that were a bit puzzling earlier.
Amazing... thank you Nileshji for such a wonderful exposition. I am amidst the many who have always wanted to understand more about the science behind nakshatras, relation to astrology, etc. in a scientific manner. You have me fired up to grasp more on this subject. Kudos on getting into such depth and detail. Thank you Mukeshji for organizing.
Just bought your book "When did the Mahabharata War happen" from amazon as paper back. Looking forward to reading it.
Centuries will feel great full to you , sir,
Nilesh ji there is no go to source online for Hinduism and Indic studies.
We need one online encyclopedia on Hinduism written by True Hindus and not some westerner. Not like devdutt patnaik , romail thapar or wendy doniger.
Please please PLEASE. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
It helped to understand. Thankyou
It was very intresting and exciting vedio session and I got clarity of so many things.
If possible please upload some more astronomy related videos. It would be a great help.
Eagerly waiting an actual calendar.
So great Nilesh Ji...I always felt a need for such introductory session on Indian calendar to get most out of your books.
❤
Wonderful session. Can you suggest a book to study nakshatras instead of Wikipedia?
Hello, I want to ask a question to Nilesh Oak sir. So Earth's orbital place is not really round as much as it is a spiral. plus if we consider the rotation of the Milky Way - everything revolves with in the Milky way. As our solar system relvolves in the MW, thus the constallations. I tried to find videos on how these rotations affect the Vedic dating calls, but couldn't find any. Will you make a video of the same too.
Sharadasham is in our daily madhyanika sandhiya vandhanam sloka. Could you please explain why tamil nadu’s calendar ..
Thank you sir ! It was very much helpful 🙏 I would do my best to spread the awareness about the facts you presented.
🙏
👌👌👌👍👍👍
Is this a lecture at some University or is a online course
HI, Thank, amazing,
Can you please let me know why Tithi begins and ends in between day time and some time is completely waved (or khaya) and some time no tithi (Padatar) day.
Wanted to know about Tamil and Malayalam calendars??? (April 13 or 14 or 15 , new year for Tamil Puththaandu, Kerala vishu, Assam Bihu, Bangala Pehala Boishak) .
I am really thankful to you, Nilesh ji. You are a rockstar for us, the younger generation.
I had a doubt about the dating of Ramayan.
You have dated Ramayan to 12,000 years ago because of Brahmarashi. But, since it goes in cycles, can Ramayan not be older than it, in multiples of 12,000 years?
Is it because of other analysis like oceanographic evidence and all (I think I watched a video of yours on Sangam Talks about other evidence, and couldn't grasp much cause of my lack of knowledge)
Can you please suggest a video of yours comparing your dating and the dating according to the Yug system?
Here you go.

Hi Nilesh ji.. you should release at least one video every week.. small bites about your research and progress..
Thank you. I plan to do it as I am able.
@@NileshOak Sir please share your thoughts on geeta jayanti/mokshda ekadasi. As per your research Mahabharata war started on amavasya but geeta jayanti isbon ekadashi.🙏🙏
@@akashgaur131 Please watch this. Do let me know your thoughts post watching...
czcams.com/video/PwbLEsfqL1M/video.html
@@NileshOak thank you so much sir. It is a wonderful lecture indeed. Moving from myth to truth.one thing is sure we lost discussing our ancient knowledge in30-40 generations but renaissance will take only 2-3 generations just because of the acumen and insight of people like you. आपको बहुत बहुत धन्यवाद और शुभकामनाएं। Sattology channel was new for me.but it is very very interesting and deserve praise and appraisal from masses. I will ask more questions as I learn more.thankyou
@@akashgaur131 Thank you.
Sir! I would like to ask somethning,
As You mentioned season of a month changes changes by one month in 2000 years. But how can this be the case as the concept of adhimasa was used to eliminate the same error/ difference? Even if their remain some minute error/difference after accounting them by the mean of adhimas, some adjustment would have been made to align them with the season. Any insight please!
Very good question. It requires a bit longer detailed explanation. May cover in future videos or in my course on Introduction to Indian Calendar.
@@NileshOak
Thank you sir! 🙏
Namasthe Nileshji. The Tamil Panchangam has 365 days of year as the year begins on April 14 th or 15th every year. The calculation of month is also different. Is this an advanced system? Why have you not mentioned about them.
Please explain the Tamil Panchngam of 365 days and also how it is different from say Gregorian calendar. Thank you.
nice one.
- How can I participate in live session like this?
- Better would be all other participants remaining mute and video off. They are too distractive.
Sir thank you for ur such deep study. Loved and induced curiosity in us.
Please can u share light on the instruments, methodology, process used in such primitive ages by our sages for calculating precise angles, distance, identifying planets & stars and way to see distant & non visible stars.... 👍🙏
👍🙏
They were not primitive times at all.
Do check Surya Siddhanta, Aryabhatiya, and other Indian astronomy texts.
Dear Sir
Do each Day Have Name Or Standard Weekly Planet Name
Nilesh ji , may be you can create an online course covering this subject .may be different courses for beginners, intermediate and advanced students.
Yes, they are in the works. About 20+ of them. Slowly but surely.
Nilesh ji 🙏
What is causing Moon Phases ? Is it our earth’s shadow ?
Dear sir you are so knowledgeable in astronomy mahabharat or surya siddantha etc.How did you get it.zis it on self study basis or studied in university.Is age is a bar to study these
It was all through self-study and working together with like-minded individuals. 25-30+ Years of Tapasya (hard work).
I m interested in astronomy
Can someone please answer this ?
What is the (I believe there is) angular difference between 1. Plane of the Earth's rotation around the sun and 2. Plane of the Moon's rotation around the Earth ? Is it the same ~23 degrees that is the angle of the tilt of the Earth's axis ?
धन्यवादाः 🙏🏻🙏🏻

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌏🌐
About time, now tell this to Modi and add to school text😚🇮🇳
Please ye program hindi me bhi karo 🙏🏽🙏🏽
is there any evidence from Indian astronomy that there was knowledge of the various 'Milankovitch' cycles?
1. the *26000-yr* precession of the equivinoxes
2. the *41,000-yr* time period where the Earth's axial tilt vares from 22.1 degrees to 24.5 degrees
3. Earth's orbit around the sun changes shape every *100,000* years. The orbit becomes either more round or more elliptical at these intervals
Yes and more.
Sir which ayanamsa should one use??
Where and when do you use Ayanamsha?
@@NileshOak sir ayanamsa use in sidereal zodiac system to align 0degree of ashwini nakshatra with 0 degree of aries then bharini in aries then kritika & so on...so it is basically to determine the 1st point in zodiac cycle...
Right now there are different choices ranges between 20-24degree..
So thats what i am asking that which one do u found correct in your experience?
@@subhadeepkumar15 I know what Ayanamsha is. Unless you are looking at a specific application or a problem for which you need the Ayanamsha number, the question is meaningless.
Accurate and precise determination of Ayanamsha becomes critical in the content of a specific problem.
Otherwise, it is a wasteful discussion.
@@NileshOak ok sir.
would love toh have a layman's session on our panchang. since even our parents are forgetting 😢. Western calender is useless our moon Callander syncs with our body and mind,the fast we do during 11 and 12th lunar day ekadashi and dwadashi. even like moon pulls and pushes back the water in the ocean something similar happens in our body but in todays age every institution is pushing you todards bhoutikwaad(materialism) instead of adhyatmik aur mansik Vikas.
Have you looked at DatePanchang (web and twitter) and DrikPanchang.com (web)?
@@NileshOak I am using drik panchang app regularly to figure out ekadashi date twice a month. I know the basics but it is learnt by navigating but not understanding. I want to understand the calender to the core so that we don't have to byheart it like we did in math tables 2x3=6 etc. In olden times and even today my parents use that thick booklet of ~365 pages size of our palm called Datta where you tear one page daily, it has photos and other details of the day on everypage.
there is not just astrological but also physical effects of the position of planets and stars on our body and our surroundings. aham bhramasami bole se sirf ek nahi ho jayege hum bhramand se balki uss ko samajne baad hoga. the thing about the time we are living in today is the world is teaching and religions are preaching about reproduction, materialism, etc. no one cares about mental evolvement only thing in focus is material evolution and the race towards upgradation of technology. everything around use is constantly changing but since the beginning of time we humans are the same even during ramayan people have same amount of body parts as we have today no change in physical structure. it seems chasing changing world and evolving technology is the sole purpose of our life no mental, moral or ethical evolution has taken place infact there is a devolution of morality with time.

27Nakshatras is perfect.. but why 30Degrees n 12 Josiacs?? 51:20 random??
Sir can edit out the portions that have noise from people in the background.
Oak is an Indian surname..??😳
It's very new to me that's why asking.
Thank you for asking.
Yes, It is a Chitpawan Kokanastha Brahmin surname, not unlike Madhuri Dixit, Ashwini Bhave, Lokamanya Tilak, Swatantryaveer Savarkar, Acharya Vinoba Bhave, Nathuram Godse, AdyaKrantikarak Vasudeo Balawant Phadke, Chaphekar, Senapati Phatak, Appa Patwardhan, and many more.
@@NileshOak Thank you sir for replying🙏😊.
Nathuram Godse ji is my favourite among all these names. But i feel bad because his ashes are yet to be immersed in Sindhu river. Today only i had seen a video of 3&a 1/2 hours of his justification given in court about why he killed Gandhiji. His dream of Akhand Bharat is yet to be fulfilled. Our history books were distorted completely & everything was a lie(only Mughals & Gandhi).
Dear sir,can you solve a big problem of mine..??
Which books to read for UPSC exam preparation specially for history ??
Really helpful talk and Q&A. Thank you Nileshji.
...
Sir the time when brahma came to earth for krishna he was and went back based on that can we the planet of brahma by knowing how much distance it might by sped of light and knowing which planet exists of million years ago can we
