Today we take the Decimal System for granted. But this Indian invention revolutionized the world. No modern math or science is possible without it. Imagine doing astrophysics with Roman Numerals! Western Science remained primitive till the Indian import.
That's not all ...1/
It took Europe over FOUR CENTURIES to understand and accept the decimal system. Now advanced calculations could be done "algorithmically", i.e. rather than by the abacus—an extension of counting fingers and toes. The resistance shows how alien and revolutionary that was. 2/
The "backwards Nordic people" of Europe learned this from the Moors and the Arabs (who also took centuries to understand it).
The Church was deathly opposed to these numbers, and forbade their use. The numbers were called ciphers (or code) as opposed to the plain Roman numbers.
What about the "advanced Greeks"? Most of their achievements were attributed based on extrapolated Arabic texts by the Church . As C K Raju has shown there is no evidence of "Euclid" ever existing. Pythagoras explicitly copied from India. This solves this White man's "puzzle."
Why did Algebra originate in India "at the same time"? Because the Decimal System it is a special case of Bijaganita.
No Abacus is not the Decimal System. The Decimal System is the PLACE-VALUE system. This is not possible without Zero. They can count in tens but had no way to represent it which could be used for calculation. They had to return to the Abacus to calculate.
India's "English Advantage", no? Yes, India invented most of modern mathematics. When it was a Sanskritic civilization. English liability kills talent, keeps India back.
Though wonder why facts upset them. Their loyalty to White supremacy is astounding.
The state of the English and their most advanced book on Arithmetic in the 14th c citing the "ten figures of India."
But their real success lay in how Macaulay convinced Indians of the superiority of the English. And how vociferously they peddle that today.
White Privilege has informed the History of Science. It follows a particular pattern I've named WAGE. Origins must be traced to White Abrahamic Greek or Egyptian Sources.

Synchronized statements by Western powers on the events in Washington—all within hours of each other.
And shouldn't India be expressing concern about peaceful transition of power in the US. 😏 Or whoever is coordinating this doesn't want uppity Brown people to weigh in.
Great. Still it looks like a very coordinated effort. Biden transition team has been calling world leaders to speak?
Violence at US #CapitolBuilding
International observers called for peace after violence racked the capital city. Recent elections drew charges of widespread rigging from the losing side. Results remain bitterly contested with the incumbent autocrat unwilling to relinquish power.
Yes, we should be clear. India did not become स्वतंत्र in 1947. The तंत्र is all British. It was a mere transfer of power from White Sahibs to subservient Brown Sahibs.
Big move. The govt APEDA manual required halal, which means the meat industry in india had to be certified by (paid) Islamic clerics. It made no sense for a secular state to mandate a religious rule. There was a big push by original #HinduCharter for this. @zeneraalstuff
This is the most important part. Halal meat mandates that the animal must be slaughtered and the meat processed and labelled only by Muslims. Thus it creates an enormous religion-based employment discrimination in the industry, rendering many Hindu butchers out of business.
Imagines if Hindus mandated that their food processing must not involve Muslims (e.g. jhatka must be non-Muslims). There'd be a big hue and cry about "fascism" and "discrimination."
But this kind of religious discrimination is built into #Islamofascism. But no one calls it out.
Now this will blow your mind. In the Sanskrit verse where Pi is calculate to 32 decimal places, the claim is the known universe could be calculated to 1 molecule level. If true, they clearly they did not get this value by measurement. How? @MeruPrastara
