The Cosmology of the Bhagavata Purana, Richard L.Thompson
Mysteries of the Sacred Universe
Presentation of a sophisticated system, with multiple levels of meaning that encode at least four different astronomical, geographical, and spiritual world models.
Thompson shows how ancient scientists expressed exact knowledge in mythological terms. He also compares the ancient traditions of Egypt and the Near East to reveal early cultural connections between India and these regions. The Cosmology of the Bhagavata Purana is informative and thought-provoking reading, which offers an insightful understanding of how the spiritual dimension was integrated into ancient Indian cosmology.
