Solar and earthly years

Philosophy · asked by user [] · 2010-08-01 · 4 answers
Thank You

I want to know if there is any calculationon on how much a solar year could represent in years on this planet earth and on what grownd basis, for example it is said that the Lord Brahma age is of 4.300.000.000 solar years, do you have the calculation on how many of his 100 years of life that is said he lives are here represented in on the earthly years that we live in? To how many years here does a Solar year represents?

Thanks again.
It is for my studies, Hari bolo!

So, Thanks VEDA.

Then to which place is this time being currently given present and for which reasons I am reckoning more exactly to be situated on the right time scale at this precise moment and that is important I believe. If Brahma'b4s age is being given in the Bhagavad-gita, as it is, for example then my question is as it is given in the solar scale then, that pertaining to the Solar Planet, the Sun Planet and not this star we call Sun here. I am is trying to figure out how it is really the way to be conceived in the right way if you can help me. Then Ok, question also goes as for where is that Sun planet where The Lord Vivasvam is ruling and i beleive we also use this time frame relating to the Solar Galaxy maybe we are related then becouse it is in relation to when does the song started to vibrate also, the right time concept as a message originaly from Sri Krsna Bhagavan'b4s mouth about the song if that is so then pertaining to; time, place and circumstance.

However, those values I am sure we have to get clear before fingers are put in to mouths to where exactly are we situated on the universe and the cosmic situation.

Hari Bol,

In the Puranic scheme our Sun is the only one in the universe. See BG 15.12 p., SB 3.15.2, 4.29.42-44, 5.21.11.

Will like to show this peace of information here that about the vedic knowledge presentation and in specialty the terms on how Srila Prabhupada told his disciples on it, that comes to the term of relativity and how does the cience of today materialy and the one explained in within the Bhagavatam, they match and not do.
