That is great news then. ISRO has a great scientific reputation and should not be consulting these guys. Even inviting him was a big mistake. He has no credentials for the topic. The latest fad is to invite Jaggi to every University and scientific department.
Here are good comments:
I've had it with the pseudoscientific claims about ancient India.

No, this is utter ********.
There is nothing in Vedic mathematics to be of any use to a modern mathematician or engineer. It is a modern-day fabrication of mental tricks with no connections to the Vedas. What happened in all probability is that the Shankaracharya was invited to ISRO for a courtesy visit, perhaps by one of his devotees. And he used the Chandrayaan launch to gain some publicity by exaggerating that visit. I hope that ISRO learns its lesson and stops inviting such people who are of no use to the organization and misuse the invitation to mislead others.

Worse, look at the ratio of the circumference and the diameter. It is exactly three here, which is the crudest approximation for pi. Good luck getting a rocket to the moon by taking pi=3 in your calculations!
-------------------------------------------
At least ISRO is not directly to blame here. This is just some random spiritualist guy trying to gain some followers by exaggerating a courtesy invitation. And some journalists who did not pass high school apparently or forgot everything they learnt there decided to publish it as news.
But then, ISRO gives enough fodder for such folks. The ISRO chairman and other scientists apparently visit Tirupati Temple with a rocket replica before every launch.[7] I don't care what his personal beliefs and private religious rituals are, but he should not be doing something like that publicly and in official capacity while heading a secular nation's major scientific organization.[8] They also invite people like serial pseudoscience peddler Sadhguru[9] to events.

Is it true that Vedic mathematics helped the perfect Chandrayaan 2 launch?

Omg I hate these corporate gurus - jaggi, Sri Sri etc. They charge a bloody hell of money, plunder the environment to build their so called five star ashrams and hoodwink people. Real ashrams are so rare these days.

You don't understand the reasoning behind these discussions - food weight measurements and belly diameter measurements are indeed extremely serious matters for reshians.

@Sudacafan , @Raul_SJ, @sureshs @Sentinel and anyone I may have missed. You have all made interesting points worth considering.
Now so far as the language is concerned, Herr Sentinel has brought up a great point. I would like to agree with him but I'm not sure. Are spirituality and the use of profanity mutually exclusive? Please advise.

This is why I say time and again. The biggest enemies of Hindus are not the ones that bribe people to convert them to a cross-wearing cult but Hindus themselves. Do you have any idea about the contributions of Sadguru or Sri Sri Ravishankar? Sorry, but your comment reeks of ignorance!
Here you are criticizing these people but I haven't seen you make a single remark about the many folks that want their congregations to pay for a personal jet to 'propagate the Lord's message'

Don't care for the ones who blabber nonsense. I am worried about the ones seemingly talking intelligent but are actually duping people. Corporate gurus destroying the environment are a big no no. Finding the right guru is a lifetime's search. We found Resh by means of great good karma.This is why I say time and again.

my entire life's identity was built around that - my worth was determined by the fictitious likes on my posts despite the constant disappointment that Shresh never gave me one even once although he seems to quote me these days which fills me with immense joy.

A friend took me to dinner at Sadh(not Sad)Guru's restaurant in Chennai - Mahamudra. So so food.
Sad and SS are extremely good psychologists. That is the basis for their popularity. On top of that, they have a superficial knowledge of ancient Hinduism (not at the depth of real priests, but more than the average guy) and a superficial knowledge of Science, especially Sad. So they mix and match according to their convenience and people are impressed. And further on top of that, they have positioned themselves as champions of Sanatana Dharma, which their followers think is needed to counteract the propaganda of wealthy nations or cruel nations imposing their narrow ideas on others. Even Hindus who can easily see through their ignorance of real Hinduism or real Science grudgingly accept that such people are needed as an antidote to powerful vested interests which want to destabilize any culture not fitting their agenda. Many people miss the last part and think that Sad and SS and others like them are to be judged by their literal statements. Hindus have no friends anywhere so people like these are the only ones sticking their necks out. It is interesting that someone said that lack of visibility in the world is a sure trigger for the extermination of peoples (analogous to the benefits of labeling endangered species). These imperfect guys serve as some kind of global ambassadors to remind people that there is a whole world out there beyond the confines of the two major religions and their petty wars.
