This is a link to a remarkable document titled 'Forgotten science of Siddhanta Jyotisha' by Vinay Jha. He had published a book which is now out of print in Hindi.
In my view, this is a remarkable contribution to mathematics which should receive the attention of everyone interested in mathematics, astronomy and history of science and technology.
Let me recall Wordsworth's poem: Elegy written in a Country Churchyard

Let me recall Wordsworth's poem: Elegy written in a Country Churchyard
Full many a gem of purest ray serene | |
The dark unfathom'd caves of ocean bear: | |
Full many a flower is born to blush unseen, | 55 |
And waste its sweetness on the desert air. |
Unfathomable are the mysteries of the contributions made by our ancestors who have given us the imperative - INQUIRY. This is Veda.
Thanks to Vinay Jha for sharing his thoughts. I am sure that the Hindi version will be translated into English and will be reviewed by many scholars and students of sciences.
Thanks, Vinay Jha.
