S.O.S -> A Desperate Cry for Help Śrīla Prabhupāda’s Monument Demolished STOP PLEASE ! http://backtobhakti.com/2012/08/srila-prabhupadas-monument-in-bhubaneswar-demolished .
Such depth and detail can come only if there is a strong tradition to support it and a lifetime is devoted. This translation made by a Britisher, was published in the year 1816. It appears that the term "zero" was not in vogue even then and the translation uses "cipher" for zero. It also appears that Bhaskara did not treat infinity and zero as "numbers". The translation mentions "ananta" as equivalent for infinity. The other book posted by RBSI later mentions the word "Khahara" for infinity. Khahara must be "kha" (sky) "hara" (devour) - a number so large that devours the sky.
Thrilled to see this.Earlier I heard only about this
