Hello Readers,
Being
in Delhi, anyone fascinated by India's ancient scientific brilliance
cannot afford to miss the Jantar Mantar. This historic observatory is
located on Sansad Marg near Connaught Place. If you are in the mood for a
walk, you can do so from the Rajiv Chowk Metro Station. Otherwise, it's
a 5 minute ride in an auto-rickshaw.
The
"Jantar Mantar" is a common name used to denote the set of 5
astronomical observatories built by Maharaja Jai Singh II. Apart from
the Delhi, these observatories are located in Jaipur, Mathura, Ujjain
and Varanasi. Except the one in Ujjain, all the others have stood the
test of time.
The term Jantar Mantar seems to
be a corruption of the term "Yantra Mantra", where Yantra means
Instrument and Mantra means Formula. It can also be a corruption of the
term "Yantra Mandir", which translates into Temple of Instruments.
The Jantar Mantar in Delhi had a total of 4 major instruments, listed below:
1) Samrat Yantra
2) Ram Yantra
3) Jai Prakash Yantra
4) Mishra Yantra
The
images of these instruments are shown below. It is understood that the
Samrat Yantra is unparalleled in its size, and is clearly the largest
sundial in the world.
Please find all scientific information about the instruments in this enlightening document:
It is wonderful to note that Indians used scientific instruments of such huge proportionality so many years back !
Till next time,

I discovered a lot of useful information in your article. Visa Free Countries For Sweden Citizens. Swedish citizens are privileged to hold one of the world's most respected passports, affording them access to a vast array of visa-free countries. This remarkable benefit enables Swedes to embark on global adventures with remarkable ease and convenience.
ReplyDeleteIn your article, I learned a lot of important information. Canada Faces Suspension of Egyptian E-Visa and Visa On Arrival Services, marking a significant development in their bilateral relationship. This suspension is expected to impact travel between the two countries, creating challenges for Egyptian citizens seeking to visit Canada and vice versa. Visa services often serve as a diplomatic tool, and their suspension can strain diplomatic ties.
ReplyDeleteThis post deeply resonates with me, echoing the intricacies of human consciousness. It's like delving into the depths of our minds, navigating through a labyrinth of emotions and ideas. Your words serve as a guiding light, illuminating the path for others on this introspective journey. It's reassuring to know that we're not alone in our quest for comprehension. Thank you for articulating what so many of us feel but often find difficult to express.
