Pathani Samanta: A Luminary

Dr. Tejaswini Pradhan,

Assistant Professor, Department of Mathematics,

Kalinga University, Raipur.

 

 

Pathani Samanta, a luminary of his time,

In the annals of history, his brilliance does shine.

Born in Odisha’s soil, where nature’s beauty thrives,

His spirit soared beyond, where mathematical wisdom thrives.

 

In the heart of the 18th century, amidst colonial reign,

Pathani Samanta’s mind did reign,

With numbers and calculations, his passion did ignite,

A mathematical journey, to illuminate the night.

 

In the tranquil forests of Odisha’s verdant land,

Samanta’s mind wandered, as if guided by a hand.

Observing the celestial ballet, with stars as his guide,

He charted their movements, with mathematical pride.

 

With astrolabes and sextants, he measured the sky,

Calculating eclipses, with a keen and watchful eye.

His almanacs, a testament to his mathematical might,

Guiding sailors and scholars, through the darkest night.

 

 

But beyond the heavens, Samanta’s mind did roam,

Into the depths of geometry, he made his home.

With the treatises of Euclid, and his own intellect aflame,

He unraveled geometric mysteries, in his own name.

 

In the realm of arithmetic, his prowess did show,

Solving equations with ease, making numbers flow.

From algebraic riddles to geometric shapes,

Pathani Samanta’s legacy, the world still gapes.

 

Though time may pass, and empires may rise and fall,

The legacy of Pathani Samanta stands tall.

A mathematician, an astronomer, a beacon in the night,

His story echoes through the ages, a testament to light.
