Ancient Meteorology: Weather Forecast in Vedic Times

Did you know that in ancient times Vedic seers have become masters of meteorological phenomena without any modern equipment?

Vedic Indians observed the impact of stars, planets and physical bodies on weather on Earth with great care. They were very cautious of their responsibility to keep the life flourishing for all living being without damaging or polluting Mother Earth.

They maintained 'yad pinde tad brahmande' which means 'whatever is contained in the individual physical body is also contained in the universe' and therefore the physical world is composed of five elements akasha, vayu, agni, apah and prithvi. Vedic seers meticulously studied each of these elements and analyzed how they were interconnected.

Vedic Indians excelled in both short-range and long-range weather forecasting. But how did they do it?

Ancient Indians developed various detailed methods to explore the meteorological conditions around them. With the advancement of technology we can built upon, strengthen and refine the knowledge of our glorious ancestors while keeping in mind the needs of the modern world!
