Dear all

What is the author referring to by the word स्थूलगणितम्? Koshas have not helped. 

Here the entire paragraph.

"ननु शरत्सम्पातस्य संवत्सरारम्भकत्वं मार्गशीर्षमासस्थार्द्राया: संवत्सरारम्भकत्वविरोधीति चेत्।  न । पञ्चसंवत्सरात्मकयुगारम्भे प्राचीनस्थूलगणितप्रकारेण द्वयो: सामरस्यात्। अन्यदा शरत्सम्पात: सौरसंवत्सराम्भक: आर्द्रा चान्द्रसंवत्सरारम्भिकेति सङ्गति:। अस्मिन् पक्षे ब्राह्मणकालमारभ्य वसन्त: संवत्सराम्भकोऽभूदिति समानम्।"


Thanks.

I believe one of my personal prophecies are coming true. Technorot, an age of technology where digital technology rots from within. There are no bugs, only features. There are no problems, only solutions. Every tech is ground-breaking and revolutionary and if you disagree with any of the above, you are a backward, medieval, conservative, traditionalist Luddite caveman.

नमो विद्वद्भ्यः

This is something related to सिद्धान्तस्कन्ध , useful in computing the पञ्चाङ्गम्  । We follow प्राचीनपद्धतिपञ्चाङ्गम्  ।

Thee are twelve युगाः in the sixty year cycle starting with प्रभव and ending with क्षय --

युगं भवेत् वत्सरपञ्चकेन युगानि तु द्वादश वर्षषष्ट्याम् -- श्रीपतिः

चान्द्रं सौरं च नाक्षत्रं बार्हस्पत्यं च सावनम् -- इति पञ्चमानविभागः

Bonus Info --

ज्योतिषं नेत्रमुच्यते -- शिक्षा
ज्योतिषामयनं चक्षुः -- पाणिनीयशिक्षा
उभयत्र वेदपुरुषस्य इति शेषः ।

If we take the commentaries in different शास्ताणि / दर्शनानि we hardly find any reference to ज्योतिषम् ।

I have seen ten commentaries each in वेदान्त - पूर्वमीमांसा - न्यायवैशेषिके - व्याकरणम्  -- nowhere did I find any serious reference to ज्योतिषम् ।

It is only श्रीहर्ष , in खण्डनखण्डखाद्यम् who refered to ज्योतिषम् and आयुर्वेद
 
पाणिनि  earmarked fifty सूत्रs for ज्योतिषम् and one सूत्रम् for सामुद्रिकम् / हस्तसामुद्रिकम्  ( I learnt सामुद्रिकम् , both, in 1972) .

He clearly said that people are running to the houses of सिद्धान्तिs /ज्यौतिषिकs  with horoscopes .

I studied (roughly) two thousand जातकचक्रs between 1977 and 1993 . Study involves offering predictions .

My mother's father (सिद्धान्ती - पञ्चाङ्गप्रणेता)  and brother , both had noted the time of death .

(वराह-) मिहिराचार्य  declares  that the वैयाकरणाः - मीमांसकाः - नैयायिकाः - वैशेषिकाः - वेदान्तिनः had miserably failed in their efforts to cross the ocean of  होरातन्त्र/ होरास्कन्ध  (अ - होरा - त्र) / जातकस्कन्ध and claims that he was compiling the book ब्रुहज्जातकम् for them --

भूयोभिः पटुबुद्धिभिः पटुधियां होराफलज्ञप्तये 
शब्दन्यायसमन्वितेषु बहुशः शास्त्रेषु  दृष्टेश्वपि ।
होरातन्त्रमहार्णवप्रतरणे भग्नोद्यमानामहं
स्वल्पं वृत्तविचित्रमर्थबहुलं शास्त्रप्लवं प्रारभे ॥ 2, बृहज्जातकम् 

ज्ञप्तिः ज्ञानम्  इति प्रौढमनोरमा । उडुपं तु प्लवः कोलः - इत्यमरः ।

धन्यो’स्मि
