In Shrimad Bhagwat 5th Skand 16th Chapter भुवन कोश का वर्णन (description of Earth chest) Shri Shukdev ji describes Jambudweep, where we live as round and clearly mentions it round as lotus leaf. What is so interesting here is that Earths magnetic field does look like a lotus leaf. It is so unfortunate that we are not allowed to explore Antarctica freely.

    The Vedic cosmological model demonstrated in the video is in accordance with the Vedic scripture called Srimad Bhagavatam. Srimad Bhagavatam is the main one of a set of Hindu scriptures called “Puranas”. The only God for the devotees of Vishnu (called Vaishnavas) is God Krishna, but there are many powerful expansions of the original God Krishna, Vishnu being one of these expansions. And for Krishna, the main one of all the existing scriptures is Srimad Bhagavatam, which is said to be the Sound Incarnation of Himself. In this scripture it is very clear that the Earth is flat, that it is in the vertical center of the universe, that there is above and below, that there is no gravity, etc. The confusion that is caused is that there is another Vedic scripture very popular in India called Surya-siddhanta. This scripture describes the periodic movements of the Sun, Moon and Planets with great precision, and also presents formulas for calculating the times of solar and lunar eclipses. Thus, Surya-siddhanta is a more practical scripture, materially speaking. But the confusion that arises is that in this scripture the Earth is supposedly spherical, and its cosmology is more or less in line with modern Western cosmology. The crucial point is that in the scripture itself it is stated that it was given by a servant of the Sun-Demigod (Surya) to the demon named Maya more than 2 million years ago. At this point of divergence, the intellectuals and devotees have the necessary information to choose their authoritative scripture. Because it is practical in terms of astronomical calculations, the intellectuals opt for Surya-siddhanta. And because it is the authoritative word of Krishna, and for many other reasons, the devotees opt for Srimad-Bhagavatam. It is interesting to note that there are unexplained problems in the cosmology of Surya-siddhanta, as well as in the cosmology of Srimad-Bhagavatam. However, it is said in the Bhagavatam that the material universe is unfathomable even to its creator, Lord Brahma, just as a father does not fully understand his son. Personally, I have complete confidence in the cosmology of Srimad-Bhagavatam because it is in agreement with other essential scriptures such as Vishnu-Purana and Mahabharata, and is considered the essence of wisdom by the most prominent sages, as stated by Krishna.

      Radha Mohan Prabhu.... i was reading Surya Siddhanta... Chapter 12 verse 73.... The starry sphere, bound at its two poles, being struck with the Pravaha winds, revolves constantly; as do the orbits of the planets confined within it in regular order.' It is very nicely depicted the bhagola.. the starry sphere.. the fixed stars which rotate every day.... to produce the phenomenon we see clearly ... what is interesting is the fixed at two poles.. not one pole... a ball is spinning... not lights from a chandelier above us.. which makes me ponder your diagram of the causal ocean below the bhumandala.. and I wonder.. because i liked your diagram... but wondered about the stars... are they shinking through the waters .. or maybe that ocean belongs to a different depth of dimension... i seek your opinion..

    The thought should come to us that we see from our earth stars everywhere.
    That means logically we are on a globe. this star system has been mapped.
    Below the southern stars we cannot see what is there. That is where the second larger earth composed of 7 oceans and 7 islands lies....that is where Meru is
    There is a Bharatavarsha there where people live 10,000 years. this is stated in 5th canto
    Those that live on the 7 oceans and islands are fallen demigod desiring to take their next birth on earth planet...their prayers for such birth are recorded in 5th canto

      It is a globe as we see it. This is how our sensors interpret our Earth and other planets.
      The example of the difference in sensoric interpretation of different species is the way a human can see the surroundings and an insect. We see different shapes, colours, distances, etc.
      Therefore for us the Earth and other planets are globes.

    Here is His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada confirms in one His Lecture that the Universe is known as Jagad Anda aka Brahma Anda as per reference given below ;
    751101SB.NAI Lectures ;
    That is described in the sastra. Yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anda-koti. Krsna’s body is bluish or blackish; therefore you see the sky bluish because the rays in the spiritual world is effulgence, bluish effulgence, and that is being reflected through the sky. Yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anda-koti. His bodily light is being reflected in millions and trillions of universes. Yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anda-koti. Jagad-anda. Jagad-anda means… ANDA, IT IS ROUND. ANDA MEANS EGG SHAPE. WE DON’T SAY IT IS FLAT. SASTRA NEVER SAYS, “FLAT.” THEN YOU CORRECT, “NO, NO, IT IS NOT FLAT. IT IS ROUND.” THIS IS SASTRA. LONG, LONG YEARS, IN THE BEGINNING, IT WAS CALLED ROUND, ANDA. GOLOKA, GO, GOLOKA, BHURLOKA. GOLOKA MEANS ROUND. GOLOKA VRNDAVANA. EVERYTHING IS ROUND. SO JAGAD-ANDA. ANDA, ANDA MEANS EGG SHAPE. JAGAD-ANDA-KOTI. THE EACH AND EVERY UNIVERSE IS EGG SHAPE; IT IS COVERED. SO YASYA PRABHA PRABHAVATO JAGAD-ANDA-KOTI KOTISU. AND EACH AND EVERY UNIVERSE, KOTISU… IN EACH, NOT THAT IN ONE UNIVERSE. WE SEE SO MANY UNIVERSES, ONE UNIVERSE, BUT THERE ARE MANY MILLIONS OF UNIVERSES. YASYA PRABHA PRABHAVATO JAGAD-ANDA-KOTI KOTISU ASESA-VASUDHADI BHINNAM. AND IN EACH AND EVERY UNIVERSE THERE ARE SO MANY PLANETS, ASESA, YOU CANNOT COUNT-UNLIMITED-IN ONE UNIVERSE, AND THERE ARE MILLIONS OF UNIVERSES. What is your material knowledge? What do you know? You are trying to go to the moon planet. That is also you committing mistake. And what about the millions of universes?

    1:07 "This is only possible if the earth is circular." I respect the author's opinion, but that's not true. Many "flat earth" models I know can explain how we experiment day/night in different countries.
    "Diametrically" means "a straight line segment passing through the center of a figure or body". There is a diameter in both spheres ("globe" model) and circles ("flat" model). There is a center in both spheres and circles, and there is an opposite side (to the center) in both spheres and circles.
    1:33 "Unfortunately the Sanskrit verse in which the word parimaṇḍala is used is not included in the video's dialogue. One needs to see the specific verse reference and context in which the word parimaṇḍala is used to describe Bhārata-kanda. The word parimaṇḍala can just as often mean round or circular, and it is not a definitive evidence for the Earth being spherical. Something can be circular on a flat surface such as a round-about on a motorway. The devotees of Krishna speak of Vraja-maṇḍala parikrama, for example, meaning to walk in a rotating or circumambulating fashion around the maṇḍala (circle) of Vraja." (Māyeśvara dāsa, The Flat Earth According to Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam)
    1:35 "In the Fifth Canto the earth is directly described as the vast disc of Bhū-maṇḍala. The word bhū-golam, or 'earth-globe', generally refers to the sphere of the universe, and the Bhāgavatam seems to make no direct reference to the earth as a small globe." (Vedic Cosmography and Astronomy VCA 3.C Planets as Globes in Space).
    1:42 "As is the case with many subjects that Śrīla Prabhupāda taught, we have to consider that Śrīla Prabhupāda sometimes answered questions with seemingly contrary replies. In this conversation, he was asked directly is the Earth round like a ball, or round like a plate?" (Māyeśvara dāsa, The Flat Earth According to Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam)
    ---
    "Satsvarūpa: Śrīla Prabhupāda, are the planets shaped liked balls or more like plates? Because it's, it's hard to understand, 'cause they're called dvīpas, 'islands'. Their roundness is the roundness of a plate or like a ball?
    Prabhupāda: Which one?
    Satsvarūpa: The earth planet?
    Prabhupāda: If it is like a tree, then these things can be as dvīpa, island."
    (Morning Walk, March 18, 1976, Mayapur)
    A dvīpa is not like a ball, it's more like a plate.
    "Bhakti-prema: Earth is round and flat both, together.
    Prabhupāda: Yes."
    (Discussions about Bhū-maṇḍala, July 5 1977, Vṛndāvana )
    A plate is also round and flate (like an island).
    1:52 "When it was pointed out, for example by Bhakti-prema Dāsa in the conversation of June 28, 1977 (Vṛndāvana) that Varāhadeva lifted the entire Bhū-maṇḍala and not simply what we think of as the Earth globe, Śrīla Prabhupāda accepted his version because it was backed up by the śāstra." (Māyeśvara dāsa, The Flat Earth According to Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam)
    "O Lord, as the peaks of great mountains become beautiful when decorated with clouds, Your transcendental body has become beautiful because of Your lifting the earth (Bhū-maṇḍala) on the edge of Your tusks." (SB 3.13.41)
    1:59 "... just like islands". Islands are not spheres (balls).
    2:14 About the "mainstream science" and its perception of the universe:
    "Yaśodā-nandana: Prabhupāda, what is the shape of this tiny portion of earth or whatever place we are on? What is the shape of this, whatever you call...
    Prabhupāda: Ask them. Why don't you ask them? Sometimes they say flat, sometimes they say it is round. Why don't you ask them, the scientists?
    Yaśodā-nandana: We don't accept what they say.
    Prabhupāda: No, no. Formerly they were under the impression the world is flat. And now they are saying round. So what they'll say after few years?"

    • @GuruPremaDasa
      @GuruPremaDasa 4 года назад +2

      We need to understand the context of each quote.
      1. When Prabhupada said "globe", was the word used to directly describe the shape of this "planet" (Bharata Khanda)?
      2. Was Prabhupada speaking about Bharata Khanda, Bhu-mandala, or Bhu-gola?
      3. Please provide references.
      My answer:
      When Prabhupada was directly questioned about this subject, Prabhupada said our "planet" is like an island (dvīpa) or "round and flat". Please see the references above (my first comment).
      Srimad Bhagavatam also says our "planet" is like an island (dvīpa). Srimad Bhagavatam says our Universe is like an egg, but it doesn't say our "planet" is like an egg. Why Srimad Bhagavatam doesn't say Bharata Khanda is like an orange or Bharata Khanda is like a lemon, or like a ball?
      Of course, some people can imagine there is a spherical island somewhere, but Prabhupada also says:

      And one more thing if you read the lines carefully it states Bhu mandela as a planetary system and not as a Universal system.
