The Portion Rudram praises Rudra and in Chamakam the devotee asks Rudra for everything a Human being could wish for.
There are many ways of chanting the Rudra, depending on intonation(Gana) and the results vary for each.
And there are different types of conduction of Sri Rudram, in terms of how many people, and how much each one chants at the same time.
This also determines the result of the Rudra Upasna.
Vedic mathematics and science are ancient Indian systems of knowledge that have been passed down through generations. These systems originated in the Vedas, which are a collection of ancient Indian scriptures. Vedic mathematics is a system of mathematical calculations based on 16 sutras, or word-formulas, and 13 sub-sutras, or corollaries. This system is known for its simplicity and efficiency, as it allows for faster calculations and mental math techniques. It is for the specialists to delve deep into the Texts and reveal what they contain. Unfortunately those who know Sanskrit are not generally aware of advanced modern Scientific Theories and those familiar with modern concepts do not know Sanskrit. My request is that both the groups must get familiar with what they do not know or get together to highlight the highly advanced scientific nature of Hindu Thought.
The ratio 1:1.618 is a golden ratio which is found all over the cosmos. Stick out your forefinger. The ratio from the first two bones is 1:1.618. Now the ratio between the 2nd middle bone and the third bone terminating at the knuckle is also 1:1.618
Ancient Indians used Mathematics extensively and relied on it so heavily that Indian Logic, Philosophy,Hindu Rituals and the Sanskrit Language have strong Mathematical base.
Meters, called Chandas are used in Prayers, literary works have a strict Mathematical base.
Pingala, younger brother of Panini, the Sanskrit grammarian, has devised Chanda Shastra that deals with these Meters.
He is dated to 2 BC, may be earlier.
Another Legend has it that he is the younger brother of Patanjali, who wrote the Yoga Sutra.
This assigns Pinagala to 4 BC.
