The methodology used for Buddha Nirvana:
Samuttanikaya verses:
First fixing that Lunar eclipse comes first and then a solar eclipse (verses 9/10 Samuttanikaya)
Thread
We know he comes to Shravasthi and stays for 90 days.
We also know that the Deva putras come in a particular sequence!
First verse points out Kashyapa-Dhata-
Aruna Prashna clarifies that it is Winter solstice that is being referred to here.
Therefore the sequence becomes WS-Lunar eclipse -Solar Eclipse -Vaishakha Purnima (Nirvana)
Then we need to know where the lunar eclipse occured at?
There is a list of celestials who are given in the text: Aryaman is the one.
The original Vedic texts give Bhaga and Aryaman as opposite rulers of the two Phalguni stars to what we know today.
Hence it is Aryaman for the lunar eclipse (not Bhaga)
Running the idea through from 2200BCE to 400BCE we get :
13 dates:
1807/1694/1659/1510/1250/1192/1138/1119/1062/1007/765/690/560 all BCE years!
Then we need to choose the way we see the lunar eclipse and that must be near Aryaman... initially I thought it must be 1510BCE but when we look at original text we realise that Bhaga is the ruler here and not Aryaman !!
Thus only two dates : 1510/1807BCE with 1807BCE surviving three relentless scrutiny of our dating ... that is the Vaishakha Purnima where the Moon at Aryaman is eclipsed and preceded it!!
Then we can also take WS to Vernal Equinox and check how it happens: I show that from 13 minutes in this presentation:
👇🏻
If we run that strict criteria here then we realise that the Vaishakha Purnima must arrive before VE and that cannot happen after 1200BCE !!!
This imposes a maximum limit for Buddha Nirvana!
Thus 2200-1200BCE is the limit for Gautam Buddha!

So 5561BCE was actually thought of by Vartak because of Halley’s Comet periodicity (calculated wrong at 77 years) and verse 3:12 of chapter 3 of Bhisma Parva.
Let’s check of what I say is true:
5661 + 1986 (last seen Halley’s) = 7547 years
Divide by 77: answer is 98.01
Check it.
Of course, Vartak went wrong because the date of 5561BCE wasn’t the 98th return of Halley’s Comet.
The period of Halley’s Comet is actually 75.32 years.
So in actual fact, Halley’s Comet return was 5546BCE.
Let’s check if what I say is true:
5546 + 1986 = 7532 divide by 75.32
Now, let’s go further:
Suppose hypothetically we accept Saturn and Jupiter near Vishakha.
Then Saturn and Jupiter should be near Vishakha in 5561BCE
But they are not. They are 5 and 3 Nakshatras away. Is this reproducible research?
I can show you how this looks eg 3819BCE

If one enlarges the central portion of this Yantra, which appears to be made of copper, then one finds an interesting emblematic inscription in the centre which many such Jain Yantras carry:
Slow Thread for those who wish to know few basics.
The Jain Yantras of old typically carry three basic parts to the Yantra.
The inner portion of central portion of the Yantra carries a design which is something which has an esoteric meaning in that script usually Devanagari although it may be in a derivative bhasha.
If you check the inner portion then that will have a few petals. Usually one central one will have the “xyz person who is to be benefitted or harmed “... although if the yantra is for Jana Kalyana, then it will simply have that motif (you can see the latter idea 💡 n this one)

After a few years, Purohits will effectively become very scarce as there are very few sources of income for them and very few women ready to marry them.
Why is it happening? What will be the consequences?
Slow thread.
Often one does not realise how important certain groups of people are until they disappear.
The open (and undeclared) war against Hinduism takes many facets.
Some of those are above ground and out in the open.
Others more subtle. “I learnt two Vedas in few hours”

@irudragaur
I learnt exactly how hard it is to just learn one Sukta (Pavamana) which is 500+ Riks when I was at the prime of my memory faculties... it took me 2+ years to get reasonably good.
Vedic Purohits take rigorous training for 12 years.
12 years!!

Most perpetrators of sexual assault are known to the victim & family and often use this familiarity to silence the victim.
All parents should make absolutely certain that children know that they can always come and tell you if something like this happens.
Secondly judges should stop this nonsense of “will you marry her” to the perpetrators.
This is just not on.
In this case, the potential threat of an acid attack is very real and put the victim under severe pressure to acquiesce to the perpetrator’s demands.
Milord should really introspect. And Bollywood should introspect even MORE for showing this in films.

One of the reasons I spent a lot of money making Krishna: History or Myth in 2008 is because I understood the viewpoint of all the daters.
Would hv been easy for me to take Vartak’s date, but it’s totally wrong and Docu filmmakers have a duty to ensure correct date (3067BCE)
Having established that date in 2008/9 and having now defended the date on Twitter/FB/YT and various other channels with a modified 3067BCE theory which BTW is the only reproducible theory of Mahabharata, it appears like I hv to again spend time/effort/money on reinventing wheel.
BTW, the 1.8K BCE date for Mahabharata is totally wrong.
Buddha Nirvana date can NEVER be later than 1200BCE and we can confidently fix it to 1807BCE (astronomy and epigraphic)..

One small insight into spirituality and differences of opinion which people may find useful.
Small thread:
1. What you see and what you believe in and what you “experience “ are products of your :
Purva Punya x Intellectual power X Devotion X Guidance
2. Let’s go into each of these separately:
Purva Punya First:
How to judge? Jyotish wise look at the 5th house and 5th Lord from all three lagnas (Moon/Sun/Asc)

If 5th Lord in excellent position from all three, person may achieve with little or no effort....
3. Same thing, the 5th Lord is afflicted. Let’s say it’s Mercury for example and it’s placed with the Moon and conjunct. What will happen?
What’s the nature of the obstacles in sadhana?
A: Related to Moon (mind/women/emotion and greed/lust/envy etc)...
