Abstract: This paper describes ancient Bharat (India) ideas of space and objects concept. The conceptual rituals of the ancient Indians were based on the scientific knowledge. Ancient civilization was used to observe the movements of the sun, moon, and stars. They practised these observations to develop sophisticated methods for determining time and direction. They created detailed star maps and developed treatises like the Surya Siddhanta, which explains the calculations for solar eclipses and celestial positions. This was an essential tool for agricultural activities and future forecasting. Exploring the ancient ideas on solar system is a matter of our curiosity and helps us for better understanding of our ancient philosophy.
