The entire universe lies exposed there with about 2000 odd stars visible to the naked eye.

In my previous post I had promised to start writing lessons on vedic mathematics and here is the first lesson. Vedic mathematics contains sutras (formulas) which are simple and straightforward, even though they are based on algebra, these sutras work like magic and unlike modern algebraic formula, they are easy to remember.
