Keep whining. Our astrology astronomy was more advanced than present science. Why can't you just explain how Indians Hindus had fluck with this detailed records ?
Pluto or Teekshana/Teevra
Pluto was discovered to the modern world in 1930.
Krittikaam Peedayan Teekshnaihi Nakshatram…[30-Bheeshma.3]
Here Vyas states that some immobile liminary troubling Krittika (Pleides) with its sharp rays.
This was mentioned as Nakshatra because it was stationary at one place for long period, so it must be a planet in outer orbit.
It gets mentioned again as
Krittikasu Grahasteevro Nakshatre Prathame Jvalan…… [26- Bhishma.3]
Mathematical calculations make it clear that Krittika and Pluto were conjunct during mahabharata period.
Vyas has mentioned ‘seven Great planets‘, three times in Mahabharat.
Deepyamanascha Sampetuhu Divi Sapta Mahagrahah…[2-Bhishma.17]
It means that the seven great planets were brilliant and shining. In traditional indian astrology, Rahu and Ketu are nodes/shadows and do not shine like stars or planets.
Nissaranto Vyadrushanta Suryaat Sapta Mahagrahah…[4-Karna 37]
This line states that these seven great planets were ‘seen‘ moving away from the Sun.
Since Rahu & Ketu cannot be ‘seen’, they can be ruled out.
This statement is made on sixteenth day of Kurukshetra War, so the Moon has moved away from Sun.
Hence we can assume Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are the seven great planets mentioned by Vyas.
Pluto was neglected due to its lesser impact on earth.
Moon was excluded because,
Praja Samharane Rajan Somam Sapta grahah Iva….[22-Drona 37]
Here again seven planets are mentioned by Vyas, excluding the Moon.
Though they were described 5100 years back, we forgot about Uranus, Neptune and Pluto because in traditional indian astrology because they were not used to predict future.
LOL
-Astrology isnt even a science... There is not relation between star constellations and our personal lives.
- Several civilizations had knowledge about the movement of planets
- That doesnt make them "more advanced" than us with our current knowledge and scientific methods
