In mathematics, two quantities are in the golden ratio if their ratio is the same as the ratio of their sum to the larger of the two quantities.
If two numbers be designated by a and b (a>b>0), then they are aid to be in Golden ratio if a/b=(a+b)/a
This is nothing but THEFT and appropriation of Indian Heritage.
While this might look very trivial at the outset, this is a very major cultural appropriation.
This threads explains the Golden ratio, its history and its modern appropriation

This approximates to 1.618033.
Since in a Fibonacci series every number(except first & second) is sum of the previous two, golden ratio approximates ratio of larger/smaller
Golden nature is everywhere in the nature. Infact, Golden ratio is called Divine proportion.
According to latest research, universe is governed by Golden ratio.
Universe has a golden ratio that keeps everything in order.

The petals of a flower and seed heads follow a Fibonacci series where each consecutive cycle is in golden ratio with the previous one
It can be seen in hurricanes and reproductive organs
It could be seen everywhere in the universe and in fact all the galaxies follow Fibonnacci sequence and have a golden ratio which keeps the universe in order
Who discovered it first?
Fibonacci series was not discovered by ancient Greeks and Westerners. It does not appear in European before Leonardo Fibonacci (13th century)
Is this true? Let us examine the facts.

What they don't say: Fibonacci lived in a colony of INDIAN merchants in North Africa. There were hardly any African residents except probably a handful of slaves.
Let us see what Fibonacci himself says in his own book
"I was also introduced to Greek, Arabic & Egyptian Math" .
"But I found ALL of them,EVEN Pythagoras, to be erroneous compared to Indian Mathematics"
I demonstrated everything with proof"
" In my book, I have published the doctrine of Mathematics completely according to the Method of Indians.
I have COMPLETELY adopted the (Mathematical) Method of Indians because it is the MOST effective"
Rather, he simply calls it "Indian Series".
Unlike many other Europeans, Fibonacci was NOT a plagiarist. He clearly mentioned his source and acknowledged his credit to ancient Indians.
The real name of the so called "Fibonacci Series" is "Indian Series".
This comes from the horse's mouth !

This is THEFT!
Indians had Algebra BEFORE Mμslim prophet & religion was even born.
Here is Bakhshali Manuscript dating back to 3rd century CE. It is an Algebraic treatise. Have you anything like this from the Arabian desert? No, you simply plagiarized Algebra from Indians! https://t.co/cWXRNYMgDt
The Bakhshali manuscript, which has been carbon dated to 3rd century CE, is an ancient Hindu treatise on Arithmetic and Algebra.
The Algebraic problems deal with simultaneous equations, quadratic equations, arithmetic
geometric progressions & quadratic indeterminate equations.
Bakhshali isn't earliest Indian Algebraic treatise. Early Algebra is found in Shulba Sutras dating back to at least 800 BC. Traditional Algebra reached its pinnacle in the works of Aryabhata & Bhaskara.
What makes Bakhshali special is it offers mathematical proof to its theories
It is surprising to see that even after the ancient Indian algebraic treatise has been carbon dated to 3rd century CE by Oxford, they persist with "oh we invented Algebra. It is Halal".
A brief examination of the origins of "Halal Algebra" follows

The earliest work of "Arabic Algebra" is the "Al-Kitāb Al-Jabr wal-muqābala" by Al Khwarizmi. The term "Algebra" comes from this book ("Al Jabr").
Before writing his treatise, Al Khwarizmi visited India. His book is a plagiarism from Indian Mathematics and an obvious one at that

India and Israel. Hindus and Jews.
This thread is about the history of the mutual interaction and relation between two of the oldest extent civilizations of the world.
We will also look at how appeasement politics alienated our ally and affected our own international position
The earliest trade contact between Hebrews and Hindus could have dated back to the era of David and Solomon.
"The king had trading ships at sea along with ships of Hiram. Every three years it returned, carrying gold, silver and ivory, and apes and baboons"
Bible( Kings 10.22)
According to the Old Testament, Ophir was the name of the place famous for its wealth. Solomon traded gold, silver, sandalwood, pearls, ivory, apes, and peacocks
Modern scholars have identified Ophir with Abhira kingdom of western India

But the first large scale migration of Jewish refugees to India was after Roman destruction of Jerusalem.
Indian Jewish tradition says first wave of Jewish refugees landed on Kerala coast at Kodungallur in 70 CE.
Painting from Paradesi Synagogue(Mattanchery) depicts the scene
The Hindu Maharaja of Kodungallur cordially received the Jewish refugees.
He granted them land, freedom of life & freedom to practice religion.
Painting from Paradesi Synagogue depicts the king welcoming Jewish refugees.
