The forgotten Ancient Scientist/ Physicist of India who explained Laws of Motion and Atomic Theory
MahaRishi Kanad lived in era of 2nd BC and is depicted as a scientist and philosophical scholar who wrote the 'The Vaiseshikha Sutra' .
His major work was in 'Rasavadam'- modern day elemental physics and Chemistry.
In the book 'Vaiseshika Sutra', Rishi Kanad has stated three laws of motions in 2nd BC.
In the book 'Vaiseshika Sutra', Rishi Kanad has stated three laws of motions in 2nd BC.
Till this date of modern physics, Newton is falsely believed to have given these laws as well as the concept of gravity. He is known for laying the foundations of an atomic naturalism Indian philosophy in the Sanskrit text.
Vaisheshika Sutra - one of six principle philosophies of ancient Bharat. He suggested that everything can be subdivided, but this process of subdivision cannot go on eternally, and there must be the smallest entities (Parmanu) that cannot be further divided, that are eternal,
that aggregate in different ways to yield complex substances and bodies with a unique identity, a process that involves heat, and this is the basis for all material existence. He used the above ideas with the concept of Atman (soul, Self) to develop a non-theistic means to moksha
Again as usual the Western 'scientists' like John Dalton have taken credit for the discoveries made by our Rishis who explained them thousands of centuries before the British and other Europeans invaded Bharat.
These foreign invaders only took Bharat back into the dark ages whilst looting us of our great contributions to the world.
Rishi Kanad's work mentions clear laws of motion of an object what we studied in modern day physics.
For example-
वेगः निमित्तविशेषात कर्मणो जायते
Rishi Kanad's work mentions clear laws of motion of an object what we studied in modern day physics.
For example-
वेगः निमित्तविशेषात कर्मणो जायते
|Meaning : Change of motion is due to impressed force.
वेगः निमित्तापेक्षात कर्मणो जायते नियतदिक क्रियाप्रबन्धहेतु
| Meaning : Change of motion is proportional to the impressed force and is in the direction of the force.
वेगः निमित्तापेक्षात कर्मणो जायते नियतदिक क्रियाप्रबन्धहेतु
| Meaning : Change of motion is proportional to the impressed force and is in the direction of the force.
वेगः संयोगविशेषविरोधी |
Meaning : Action and reaction are equal and opposite.
Rishi Kanad mentions :
''Every object of creation is made of atoms which in turn connect with each other to form molecules.''
