His famous work Lilavati and Bijaganita remain unparallel works by substantiating his profound intelligence.
His astronomical findings on planetary positions, Occurrences of eclipses and Cosmography written in his treatise titled "Siddhani Shiromani" stun every one. In his book Surya Siddhant' he wrote on the gravitational force, that helps to keep the planets, the Sun and the moon in their respective orbits much before the world could even waken and realize to these findings.
