Fake Posts
Numerous fake posts, without the proper knowledge of Sanskrit, are circulated around the Web. “Massachusetts University on Kaņâda”, “Kanad spoke of computer” and so on will give an opportunity for critics to insult you more.
We should go to the original text, study, understand, compare, and then make statements.
The Truth
Did Kaņâda Maharshi really speak about numerous scientific laws and theroms and truths which we know today? Yes. He did.
