India is not just a nation of Gods and Goddesses but also of ghosts and evil spirits. We believe in them very strongly. These real life paranormal and ghost stories from India are not intended to scare anyone but to narrate a set of events that have occurred in real life and ponder upon why certain things happen without any logical explanation. They are supposed to be a collection of events that have occurred in real life therefore please expect some stories to end on a bad note and without any reasoning or logical explanation.

These paranormal and ghost stories are my own personal stories and some of them have been told to me by others which I believe to be true.

The stories of the book: Introduction (This is an introduction to the types of ghosts in India)
My Great Grandfather And The Churail
My Out Of Body Experience
The Haunting In The Mirror
Death Pact With God
Ghost Near The Bedside
Possession By A Dead Man's Spirit

Aryabhata (sometimes spelled as Aryabhatta) was one of the greatest mathematician and astronomer of the classical world. He not only had enormous influence in India but across the world. He was only 23 years old when he wrote the Aryabhatiya. It consisted of this findings including astronomical constants and the sine table, mathematics, the reckoning of time (movement of heavenly bodies) and about the cosmos. He was the one to calculate the value of Pi, observed solar and lunar eclipses, calculated the summation of series of squares and cubes, determined the area of a triangle, defined cosine, versine and inverse sine. He is credited for finding how long it took the earth to spin on its axis, the length of the year and coming up with the heliocentric model and much more.

Unfortunately, many of us do not even know who Aryabhata is. Sadly, not much is even known about his life, where he came from, about his parentage or even his name for that matter. This book discovers and evaluates the life and works of the world's most important and forgotten mathematician and astronomer. Find out who Aryabhata was and what he did?
