There seems to be some controversy amongst biographers about Jiva Goswami’s birth. Some opine that he lived from 1511 – 1596 CE, while others claim that he lived from 1533 to 1618 CE. Not much is known about Jiva Goswami’s childhood. He was born in Ramakeli in the district of Maldah, West Bengal as the son of Srivallabha Mallika (also known as Anupama), the younger brother of Rupa and Sanatana. His mothers name is unknown. He showed a strong affinity to the worship of Krishna even from his childhood and excelled in his education completing his studies in Sanskrit Vyakarana ...

The first appearance of evidence of the use of mathematics in the Indian subcontinent was in the Indus Valley Civilization, which dates back to around 3300 BC. Excavations at Harrapa, Mohenjo-daro and the surrounding area of the Indus River, have uncovered much evidence of the use of basic mathematics. The mathematics used by this early Harrapan civilisation was very much for practical means, and was primarily concerned with weights, measuring scales and a surprisingly advanced brick technology, which utilised ratios. The ratio for brick ...

Hearing that his father and uncles had made this decision, the young Jiva desired to join them. According to the biographical work Bhakti Ratnakara of Narahari Chakravarti, Jiva had a dream of Chaitanya at this time. This gave him the impetus to leave home in order to join Chaitanya. It is unclear whether or not Jiva actually ever met Chaitanya personally. Jiva travelled to Navadvipa in West Bengal and met with Nityananda, one of the foremost followers of Chaitanya. Nityananda took Jiva to all the holy places in Navadvipa and they cir ...

Jiva went on to Benares where he studied for some time under the tutalage of Madhusudana Vidyavachaspati, the brother of the famous logician and Vedantist, Vasudeva Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya. Under Vidyavachaspati, Jiva mastered the six systems of Indian philosophy (Sad Darsana). In 1535 Jiva arrived in Vrindavana where he remained under the tutalage of his uncles, Rupa and Sanatana (by this time his father Anupama had passed away). He accepted initiation from Rupa Goswami and was taught the esoteric principles of devotion to Krishna. ...

As a result of the mathematics required for the construction of religious altars, many rules and developments of geometry are found in Vedic works, along with many astronomical developments for religious purposes. These include the use of geometric shapes, including triangles, rectangles, squares, trapezia and circles, equivalence through numbers and area, squaring the circle and visa-versa, the Pythagorean theorem and Pythagorean triples, and computations of π. Vedic works also contain all four arithmetical operators (addition, subt ...

After the passing of Rupa and Sanatana, Jiva Goswami became the foremost authority in the Gaudiya Vaishnava line. In 1542 Jiva established one of the most important temples in Vrindavana, the Radha-Damodara temple, installing deities of Radha and Krishna that had been personally carved by Rupa Goswami. At that time he also established the Vishva Vaishnava Raja Sabha (World Vaishnava Association) and the Rupanuga Vidyapitha, an educational facility for Gaudiya Vaishnavas to study the works of Rupa and Sanatana. His erudition and spirituality were so famous that the Moghul emperor Akb ...

This period is often known as the golden age of Indian Mathematics. Although earlier Indian mathematics was also very significant, this period saw great mathematicians such as Aryabhatta, Brahmagupta, Mahavira Acharya and Bhaskara Acharya give a broad and clear shape to almost all the branches of mathematics. Their important contributions to mathematics would spread throughout Asia and the Middle East, and eventually Europe and other parts of the world ...

If this series converges for every x in the interval (a − r, a + r) and the sum is equal to f(x), then the function f(x) is called analytic. To check whether the series converges towards f(x), one normally uses estimates for the remainder term of Taylor's theorem. A function is analytic if and only if it can be represented as a power series; the coefficients in that power series are then necessarily the on ...

Several methods exist for the calculation of Taylor series of a large number of functions. One can attempt to use the Taylor series as-is and generalize the form of the coefficients, or one can use manipulations such as substitution, multiplication or division, addition or subtraction of standard Taylor series to construct the Taylor series of a function, by virtue of Taylor series being power series. In some cases, one can also derive the Taylor series by repeatedly applying integration by parts. For example, consider the function for which we want a Taylor ...

Pisharati is known to have scolded and provoked an errant Narayana to take up the Brahmin's duties of prayer and religious practices. He accepted Narayana as his Grammar student. Later when Pisharoti was struck with paralysis (or rheumatism by another account), Narayana, unable to bear the pain of his dear guru, by way of Gurudakshina took the disease upon himself. As a result Pisharoti is said to have been cured, but no medicine could cure Narayana. As a last resort, Narayana went to the Lord of Guruvayur and requested Thunjat Ramanujan Ezh ...

The origin of the maṭha is described in Sankara Vijaya, written by Madhava, brother of Sayana. He was different from Vidyaranya, an ancient seer of the maṭha, though Vidyaranya's purvashrama name was also Madhava. There are many inaccuracies in the Madhaviya Sankaravijaya. For example there is mention of an encounter of Adi sankaracharya with one great tantric called Abhinavagupta of Kamarupa. In fact there was one such famous tantric called Abhinavagupta in Kashmir, who wro ...

He revised planetary parameters based on his observations. Paramesvara most significant contributions is his mean value type formula for inverse interpolation of sine. He is the first ma ...

Greek mathematicians such as Eudoxus and Archimedes made informal use of the concepts of limits and convergence when they used the method of exhaustion to compute the area and volume of regions and solids. In the 12th century the Indian mathematician Bhaskara gave an example of what would now be called a "differential coefficient" and the basic idea behind what is now known as Rolle's theorem. The 14th century Indian mathematician Madhava of Sangamagrama expressed various trigonometric functions as infinite series, and estimated the magnitude of th ...
