His arithmetic is related to Aryabhatiya-Tantra, it is the oldest of the available astrological texts. It has four legs named Dasgeetika, Mathematics, Kalkriya, and Gol. It describes the day and night as the sun and stars being fixed and the earth moving. There is no consensus among scholars regarding their place of residence, some people call 'Kusumpur' of South country as their place and some people say 'Ashmakpur'. His time is stated to be 397 words. Aryabhata's principles regarding mathematics astrology are very valid. He has explained the scientific reasons for Sun and lunar eclipse and has given the important discussion of mathematical methods like square, square root, cube, cube root, etc.
(2) Varahamihira - Varahamihira, the benevolent of Lord Surya, was the first Acharya who clearly explained astrology as Siddhanta, Samhita, and Hora. He composed different texts related to the three wings to represent the three wings.

They are said to exist in verse 427. He was a resident of Ujjain, hence he is also called Avantikacharya. His father was Adityadas, from whom he received complete astrology. Just as the planets have the position of the sun, so is the place of Varahamihira in the divinities. He is Suryaswaroop.

The specialty of his treatise called Panchasiddhantika, associated with the principle wing of astrology, is that by not giving any theory in it, he compiled the principles (opinions) - of the five earlier Acharyas (Pitamah, Vashistha, Romash, Paulish and Surya).
