I say 7000 years ago.
Sure, we are all guessing as evidence doesn't come easy after so long.
Look at the ayurvedic science just to mention one.
It is so old that nobody really knows how old it is.
Some say 5000 years old, other say 7000 and Shiva is the inventor.
And what about the 7 notes.
Also the music is a science and again according to the legend it was Shiva that gave them to humanity.
Ayurveda is a form of traditional (read: alternative) medicine, Rik. It is not science. When scientists got ahold of traditional medicinal practices, they tested them, and the stuff that worked became medicine, while everything else became horse shit. If Ayurveda is your evidence, nice try. Take another run at it.
Quote:Pinky, you haven't got the slightest clue about the meaning of philosophy so please refrain from using this word
until you make some progress in this field.
Nice claim. Care to support it? When I called you out on not understanding the definition of science, I pretty well explained how you were wrong. Once again, my definition is:
Philosophy: the study (or one particular field of study) of ideas about knowledge, truth, and the nature and meaning of life
Explain how that definition is wrong or GTFO.

Ok, now which word are you referring to specifically? I see various words that are sometimes translated as "science," but in general it looks like those are also words for things like "wisdom," "arcane study," etc. This is reflective of the fact that old thought systems tended to conflate religion, philosophy, and science as being more or less the same thing. While some of those words might get translated as "science," a more representative and accurate translation would probably be "magic" in many of those cases.
Quote:Once again you haven't got the slightest clue about yoga and Hinduism
so please refrain from making guessing after guessing.
Yoga is pure spirituality while Hinduism is a religion.
Yoga came first and Hinduism follow but after so long pure spirituality changed
and gave way to ritualism which in practice is worth next to nothing.
Nice claim. Care to support it? Again, my (and also Google's) definition of yoga:
Yoga: a Hindu spiritual and ascetic discipline, a part of which, including breath control, simple meditation, and the adoption of specific bodily postures, is widely practiced for health and relaxation.
If my definition is so very and obviously wrong, you should have no trouble explaining how. Support your statements or fuck off.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
