The ancient Indian Vedas describe the mysterious phenomena of the cold forces

The ancient Vedas belong to the oldest preserved written relics of mankind. Their origin is dated back to the dawn of human history.

In the czech translation of the book Vimanika Shastra, which is just a part of the whole literary treasure of Vedas, is mentioned a very interesting passage about the birth of so-called cold forces. The name itself is curious, as today's physics does not use any such term.

By the way, judging by the manner the book is written in (pure technical language), it is quite obvious it was a manual for engineers - contructors and for pilots of so-called vimans - flying machines of ancient times.

The chapter mentioned above contains an utterly specific description of when and how are these cold forces activated. Thanks to this data we can easily check stated principles despite the eons lapsed.

The cold forces are produced whenever any planet (Sun and Moon being called planets too) comes closer to a specific star. An interference of their magnetic and electric fields follows, and eight cold forces are created - Shaktyudgama, Jwalamukhe, Mahojjwala, Shytyadamshastra, Shytyahyma, Sphorane, Mahormila and Mannokine.

These eight forces interfere according to the year's season.

When evaluating the results it is necessary to take into consideration that the cold force interferes with the other described forces which means it doesn't have to be evident at all.

Vimanika Shastra on the page 200 also mentiones that in the case when two planets get too close to each other, the interaction of their planetary forces takes  place and the spires of glowing energy arise.

These conjunctions have obviously neutralizing character to above described cold forces with which they may more or less interfere, depending on the location. Thanks to considerable inertia of thermal processes (the interval of up to circa one day), the effect of the forces does not have to appear exactly at the computed time.

The values of the maximum temperature drop in the days when the conjunction  of Mars with the star Krittika (Alcyon) (the cause of the creation of the cold force Shatiudgama) occured were evaluated in details using the program Johannes. This program calculates the position of the stars with the accuracy of one arc second and meantime considerates the proper movements of the stars. The starting position accuracy is taken from Atlas Coeli Novus 2000 (authors O. Hlad and F. Hovorka, ETC Publishing Praha s.r.o., 1999). 

The records of measured temperatures (the period 1945-1999) were obtained from the meteorological observatory Praha - Karlov. New data are provided by the measuring station of the company Condata s.r.o. 

We found out that the cold force did not develop according to the theory in only four cases from thirty-four which took place during the period of fifty-five years. 
The influence of the interference of those forces probably intervened in a stronger way which is only slightly implied in the book.
In the rest of the thirty-four cases it either appeared or was compensated in our terrestrial position by the neutralizing force of the given conjunction.

Thirty cases from thirty-four, however, is an incredibly high percentage of fruitfulness of the ancient theory which, thus, puts the contemporary physics in the face of an interesting mystery and calls for the explanation of the mechanism of the creation of the cold forces.

The most appealing manifestation of the cold force Sphorane, which arises from the rapprochement of the star Shravana (Altair) with Moon, was the New Year's Eve in 1978 that many readers may still remember. On December 31, the temperature stayed the whole day relatively high above zero (up to 8°C) and then in the night it had fallen to 18°C below zero. According to the calculations the conjunction of the space orbs listed above was set in on 31/12/1978 at 10:13 (CET).

In the year 2000, there was a configuration of seven planets (Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn) in the sign of Taurus, so in the section of thirty longitudinal degrees. Such constellation bred during the year multiplex mutual conjunctions of the diverse planets which, after Vimanika Shastra, caused the rise of the spires of glowing energy and that is why that year was warmer than the others. Sun enters the sign of Bull on about April 20 and in 2000 the warm weather came in very soon and lasted extraordinarily long.

At the same time in Moscow, however, it was freezing and snowing at the beginning of May 2000. On May 3, Mars approached the star Krittika (Alcyone) and according to Vedas the cold force Shaktyudgama, which supposedly culminated in the european part of Russia, originated. In our country, the temperature fell for about four degrees down.

I believe that those present results are at least interesting and worth further attention. They show the possibility how the ancient works of the past, the sacred writings and the myths may be examined differently than as a literary legacy noted for nothing but its artistic value.
