TOVP Chandelier (Prem Gauranga & Panesvara) - YouTube

TOVP Chandelier (Prem Gauranga & Panesvara) - YouTubeThe video is a technical presentation on the TOVP Chandelier model, which integrates Puranic and Siddhantic cosmology into a visual and mathematical framework for understanding Vedic cosmology. The speaker explains that traditional cosmology sources like the Puranas and Siddhantic texts differ in their descriptions of the universe, yet are complementary rather than contradictory. The presentation explores historical shifts in the prominence of Puranic versus Siddhantic approaches, particularly around the 15th century, and uses mathematical analysis to reconcile their cosmological descriptions. The speakers delve into specific astronomical phenomena, including planetary motion, the Earth’s tilt, and the paths of celestial bodies like the sun, moon, and planets. Animations depict how the Vedic concepts map onto observable cosmological phenomena, such as day and night cycles, zodiac motions, and lunar phases. The model also incorporates the concept of "Kalachakra" (wheel of time) and explains how different planetary positions relate to this concept. The explanation includes an animated view of how the sun’s motion causes Uttaraayana and Dakshinaayana (northern and southern declinations), as well as solar and lunar eclipses involving Rahu and Ketu. To illustrate these concepts, the TOVP Chandelier uses mathematical calculations from texts like the *Bhagavata Purana*, involving coordinates and values for celestial dimensions and movements.
