Thanks, Vaj. Still, we can't really discuss this with words. We need to start sketching maps on napkins or something. Because countries aren't square, I'm wondering how one accommodates those irregularities. How would I break India into a 9 x 9 square? --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com,

Take the longest width from east to west, and the longest height from north to south, divide each by nine. You'll end up with a rectangle. Bottom line is: the centre 3 x 3 square, the Brahmasthan, will cover a huge area--it's not a single point.On Jan 21, 2006, at 7:43 AM, Patrick Gillam

Apparently the tallest building project is at 'Village Karaundi, Tahsil Sihora, District Katni, Madhya Pradesh'. So that should make it easier - does anyone know how to get the longitude and latitude of this village? --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Premanand Paul Mason [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No interpretation of my post necessary, I said what I meant to say. One way or the other, whether MMY was born there or not, people will remember MMY when thinking of this project of the tallest building. However, I wouldn't be at all surprised if someone other than MMY came up with the notion

I wonder how one determines the location of a brahmastan. Do you balance the square meters of the surrounding countryside? Measure the linear feet? It mean nothing, really. I'm just feeling mathematical these days, I guess. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor

It should be within the rather broad definition of the vastu-purusha mandala's centremost square--a 3 X 3 magic square at the center of the 9 x 9 square. The Brahmasthan is the 3 X 3 sqaure at the center--and consequently covers a broad area. What are the limits of this square would depend on
