Correct mean lon^^itude, end of 



4 1 4 1 Caliyug, in Eur. sphere 4' 2<> 13' 5" 1 6,9'" 



Now, in order to reduce this to the Hindu sphere, 

 we must find what the Sun's mean longitude was 

 at that time, as follows: 



Sun's mean longitude at the end of the year 4900 



Call yug : — 

 By De la Landl's tables, £m7\ 



sphere, (§11) - = 0^- 20° 52' 28" 30'" 



Deduct motion for 759 Hindu 



years - - = 12 22 11 9,7 



Sun's mean longitude at the end 



of theyear 4141 - = 8 30 i7 20,2 



Add inequality per formula for 



710 years _ = 54 38,8 



Correct mean longitude, ILuro- 



pecw sphere - = 8 31 11 59,0 



But the Sun's mean longitude in 



x\\^ Hindu sphere at that in- 

 stant was - =00000 

 Consequently the difference of 



the spheres - = 8 3 1 1 1 59,0 



Now, from the Moon's correct 



mean longitude - = 4 2 i3 5 16,9 



Subtract diff. of the spheres =0 8 3111 59,0 

 Kemain Moon's mean longitude 



Hi?idn sphere ~ = 3 23 4 1 53 i7,9 



the same as before. 



66. From Jupiter's position and motions, we 

 obtain 875 years, for the age of the Surya Siddhdnta : 

 4900—875 = 4025 of the Cali yug. 



Jupiter's meap longitude at the end of the year 4025
