Needless to say, obviously he was well aware of the fact that the Sun
is the center of our solar system and the Earth is revolving around it,
2500 years before Copernicus "rediscovered" that fact.
It's a bit like Columbus discovering the Americas.

The distance from Spain to New York is 5.5 thousand
kilometers, and Columbus counted on the distance like that.
The distance
from New York to China is another 14 thousand kilometers.
The errors is too much to be the mistake in calculations, taking into account that it is possible to calculate the sphericity of Earth using very
simple tools.
Columbus knew where China or India were to the west of Spain, and
he searched for another land.
It is interesting where he heard of it.
The answer can probably explain why Columbus hid his source. ;-)
No verifiable reference, no science, no argument.
He was a Hindu Vedic sage. I'll take this as your admission that it is possible for a religious person to be a good scientist.
