PREFACE
Juggle Numbers also called Mental Addition and Subtraction has, now, been
completely re-written from scratch in an endless pursuit of continuous improvement
and upgradation.
This now becomes DossFAST
DossFAST - Doss Fast Addition and Subtraction Technique

which makes mental addition and subtraction of any two numbers possible and easy.
DossFAST assumes the ability to instantly add / subtract two single digit numbers.

Those who DO NOT possess this ability, but is determined to acquire it, can use one
of the two alternative methods in Appendix I or Appendix II, to learn and hone their
basic skills and abilities.
One has to have a firm will, set time, work daily until you master the skill.

MAGIC MATHS PROJECT

The Magic Maths project started in late 2001.

WRITE A MATHS BOOK - IT WILL COME TO YOU

Sometime in November, 2001 Sri Mathurakali# told me, You write a maths book.
For me, maths book meant school text-book and I was 62 then. I did not take it
seriously. After about three weeks Why have you not started?, She asked and
continued, Leave all other work; write the maths book. It is my order.
What shall I write? Write anything; just start. You will get [cdf;Fj; NjhZk;].
Always keep a paper and pencil handy. Note everything you get; because, you will
not remember after half-an-hour.
So the Magic Maths project is a gift from the Divine for Universal use. M. A.
Thiruthuvadoss is not the author but just an instrument, link or channel, like the
computer on which all this is being typed.
QUICK MATHS

I started compiling a few short-cut calculation techniques, which I thought, might

help students. In March 2002, a 24 pages book, Quick Maths - a collection of 1-step
calculation techniques - with about 15 techniques was printed. Today (July, 2010)
Quick Maths runs into about 230 pages with innumerable techniques/methods*.
#

Sri Mathurakali is one of the numerous forms of Parvathi - the Universl Shakthi that drives the
entire Universe - is the presiding deity of the temple in Siruvachur (Trichy District), 48km from Trichy
(Tamilnadu, India) on the GST Rd, to Chennai. This is an unusual temple which opens only on two
days (Monddays and Fridays) of the week and a few other special days in the year.

JUGGLE NUMBERS

I conducted numerous free workshops all over and taught these techniques to children,
teachers and parents. During these workshops I realised that most children do not
have the required mastery over the basic arithmetic operations (+, , x, ) of even
single-digit numbers and and so Quick Maths was really of no use to them. So I
wrote Juggle Numbers - mental addition and subtraction, in 2003. After a few avatars,
Juggle Numbers is now DossFAST - a compact, easy and effective program.
MAGIC MATHS

When two girl students came to me for help with their CAT entrance preparation
(even though they had enrolled with two popular coaching institutions) I got a glimpse
of the dull formal high-school material dished out to them. It had nothing to do with
skill developement or aptitude. This prompted me to write the Magic Maths book,
solving aptitude problems in under 10 seconds by lateral methods. A part-I of the
book was printed in January, 2004 followed by a complete book later. Now a final
version of Magic Maths is getting ready and will be out in a couple of months.
GANITHA

In around 2005 a book was litterally thrust on me in a shop by its owner in Mylapore.
The book was, Classics of Indian Mathematics - Algebra, with Arithmetic and Mensuration,
from the Sanskrit of Brahmagupta and Bhaskara, by Henry Thomas Colebrooke, first
published in 1817 A.D. The shop was the Indological Book Shop on Appar Swami
Koil St. (Opp to Sanskrit College, Mylapore, Chennai). The result, I wrote the Lilavati
of Shri Bhascaracharya (1150 A.D.) in todays English as Ganitha.
BRAHMAS OWN NUMBERS

Working for Ganitha lead me to look into the numbers and number systems etc. and
as a result, the next book in the line is Brahmas Own Numbers.
ALL BOOKS ON THE WEB

I had been writing, modifying and updating the books on a continuous basis for the
past 8+ years, as and when I was getting new material and ideas. Now I am in the
process of redoing all the books into their final shapes. As and when the books get
ready, they will be put on the net - http://www.magicmaths.org/ - for the free use of
everyone. Hope these reach more and more people, for whom they are meant.

MATHS-PHOBIA AND MATHS TEACHING

MATHS-PHOBIA
Mathematics is natural to humans. Everyone in the world, even the vegetable vendor
who, perhaps, never went to school, counts, calculates, compares, handles money
and materials and so on. No one is troubled by or scared of maths. So mathsphobia
is not a natural fear. It is a Frankenstein monster; it is our own creation
BASIC NUMERACY SKILLS

Addition of two numbers is the basis of all mathematics, science and life itself.
Subtraction is the reverse of addition; multiplication is extended addition and division
is the inverse of multiplication. A thorough fluency in these basic arithmetic operations
alone can save our children from this fear of maths. Answers must be instant as if
the question was, What is your name?
THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO TEACH ADDITION .....

We inherited excellent, easy and effective methods to teach basic mental arithmetic
computations. But the world, including us, the anglicised lot, destroyed all that and
now no one seems to know how to teach even addition of two single digits.
INDIANS EXCELLLED IN IT

Ancient Indians, down to our grandfathers, excelled in numbers, logic and aptitude.
After all it was India that gave todays numbers, number system, calculation techniques
and the arithmetic. They were taught the tables - Addition, Subtraction and
Multiplication (including table of fractions like: ,,,,,,etc.)
How can any other method become as effective? Perhaps, future generations will
plant a tables-chip in the brain.
TEACH THE TABLES

If you are genuinely interested in the child, teach Mathematical Tables, mainly addition
and multiplication tables. Any other method like Counting Fingers or Five in the
mind ....., is meant for weaker children and not for us.

ABOUT THIS BOOK

THE BOOK (ONLY 2 CHAPTERS)

The book is only the first TWO chapters (pages 12 to 25). This introduces a simple
technique called DossFAST which makes the job easier by avoiding the carryovers
and borrowings that are very essential part of our school learning.
THE REST (3 Appendices)

Obviously, I assume mastery over the basic ability to add and subtract two single
digit numbers, mentally and instantly, as if the question was, What is your name?
You can not run a race without legs!
But I do know the reality is very different and pathetic. So you get the 3 Appendices
which are for the ones who do not have this ability.
FOR WHOM IS THIS BOOK?

How many of us, children or adults (including people who teach maths to children),
can add three hundred and eighty seven and two hundred and forty five mentally,
without any writing, in under 10 seconds? Congrats if you can do it; else this book
could be for you.
DossFAST

could be very useful for children and even for adults.

WHAT CAN THE BOOK DO?

This simple and short course (13 pages only) will show you how even a 8 year old
will add 387 and 245 in just three mental steps;
The child will rattle:
three
eight seven
five
eight seven
six
two seven
answer is:
six
three
two
i.e. 632
SELF-TEACHING BOOK

Gurus personal guidance and teaching is like Coke - the real thing. Anything else,
either the audio, video, DVD, electronic interfaces including interactive white boards
with chat are nothing but inferior compromises. This fact has well-established itself,
with the advent of each and every gadget, right from radio, TV, ... What I am giving
is (just) a self-teaching book.

JUGGLE NUMBERS

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK?

1)

Follow any and every insruction, note or suggestion, method, writing or step,
etc. diligently and litterally. DO NOT CHANGE OR DROP ANYTHING; EVEN A SMALL
THING. Obviously students will grow out of this books language and
concepts as they grow. For now, to start with, make the material and
methods your own. Do not deviate.

2)

Start from the beginning.

3)

Master every idea on a page.

4)

Answer all the problems of the Exercise.

5)

Confirm your ability, accuracy and speed of response every time.

6)

The speed of response is instant; as fast as if you were asked your name.

7)

Have a reasonable limit for the work you learn in a day. You have to assimilate
everything you learn; this takes time. Simply doing a lot at one time is of no
real use.

8)

Everyday when you start, make sure that you are thorough with all the
previous methods and techniques.

9)

Our goal is mental work.

10) If necessary, write and do the work in the beginning. Once you master the
concept, in the following days try to do them mentally.
11) Do not rush through. This skill is so basic and so fundamental for maths
and aptitude developement, mastering is important and not the time spent.
Take your time. Remember the foundation, including every brick and every
layer of bricks, needs to be strong.

Doss Fast Addition and Subtraction Technique

1 ADDITION USING DossFAST

ADD ANY NUMBER (without Carryover)
This is extremely simple and fast (assumes mastery of single digit addition).
Read 1st number, digit by digit; from left to right.
Add any digit from the 2nd number if in the corresponding place.

EXAMPLES
01) Take 624 + 35
As you read six two four, you will notice
6 has no digit to be added;
2 has 3 to be added;
4 has 5 to be added.
So you will read 6 2+3 4+5 [and not six two four]
which is six five nine.
624 + 35 = 659

1 ADDITION USING DossFAST

ADD A DOUBLE DIGIT NUMBER (with Carryover)
We avoid carry-overs and borrowing as they interfere with speed and flow.
The technique is better explained by examples.
We shall learn to go slow to GO FAST!.
Let us take the example on the earlier page
624 + 35 = ?
We take 624, the left side (L.S.) number;
Modify it by adding digits from right side (R.S.) number one by one.
We shall do only one addition (of one digit) in one step.
We read:
Step 1: 6 2 4
Step 2: 6 5 4
Step 3: 6 5 9
So 624 + 35 = 659

[the L.S. number as it is]

[ 2+3 ]
[ 4+5 ]

Consider 684 + 35 = ?
Now step 2 will be a problem as 8+3 gives a carryover.
Step 1: 6 8 4
8+3 is a problem; take 68+3
68 4
Step 2: 71 4
Step 3: 7 1 9
So 684 + 35 = 719
ACTUAL WORKING
684+35=?
step 1: 6 8 4
step 2: 68 4
71 4
step 3: 7 1 9
So

ACTUAL MENTAL ADDITION
THE BEST APPROACH
The enthusiastic and energetic parent / teacher may get the idea of the
DossFAST method from the past few pages; and then teach the student
only this page.

In the previous few pages the DossFAST method was explained. If the idea is
grasped then the actual working by the student is given below.
Using underlining instead of grouping is much simpler and easier.
The previous page will look like this.
The student must be encouraged to WRITE these steps, as they are, without
any change. Once they understand the method thoroughly, they will hate to
write any steps and they will just write the answer only.

2 SUBTRACTION USING DOSSFAST

SIMPLE CASE
Go over all the subtraction problems that you may find from Exercise (1) onwards.
Go through the following also and pick up any method, if you like.
Few simple methods; see the notes around each sum.
01) 70 26 50 44
or Jump from 26 to 30; get 4 and 30 to 70 is 40. So 44

[First subtract 20 and then 6]

02) 300 62 = 238

From 300, keep 200 and 100 62 is 38
or 300 60 = 240; 240 2 = 238

03) 800 162 = 638

or 800 100 = 700; 700 62 = 638
i.e. 800 162 700 640 638
04)

54

[To subtract 62, 100 is enough]

[Take away 60 and then 2]

[Keep 600; 200162=38]

[First subtract 100, then 60, finally 2]

45

05) 754 48 = 706

06) 13 7 = ?
Subtracting 3 from 13 is easy; So split 7as 3 & 4
13 3 is 10; 10 4 = 6
So 13 7 = 6
i.e. 13 10 6

[Subtract 10 and then add 1]

[Subtract 50 and then add 2]

[Take away 3 and then 4]

07) 57 9 = ?
So 57 9 50 48

[Take away 7 and then 2]

08) 45 8 = ?
So 45 8 40 37

[Take away 5 and then 3]

09) 64 12 = 52
i.e. 64 60 52

[Take away 4 and then 8]

10) 76 15 = 61
i.e. 76 70 61

[Take away 6 and then 9]

2 SUBTRACTION USING DOSSFAST

JUST SUBTRACT
This is extremely simple and fast (assumes mastery of single digit subtraction).
Read 1st number, digit by digit; from left to right.
Subtract any digit from the 2nd number if in the corresponding place.

This is exactly the same as the corresponding work on DossFAST addition. So we

shall follow the underlining pattern on last page of Section 3.

The one and ten tables are easy; the results in bold in the tables (compiled
below) form nice patterns which children love and can be taught independently.
Tell (encourage) them everyday how much they have
learnt and how little is left to be learnt. This gives them
a sense of achievement and gives them a comfortable
feeling that they already know quite a bit of addition
and addition is not difficult after all.
Now take up the remaining tables taking half a block
of 5 lines (shaded) at a time, for a week or so for the
child to learn it thoroughly. If the children take time it
does not matter; just encourage them and be positive.

APPENDIX I: ADDITION USING TABLES

TEACH ADDITION TABLES
TEACH AS RHYMES

Children love rhymes even without knowing (understanding) who is Jack or what
is Jill. Tables also are to be taught just as rhymes. It is rote learning and blind and
unconcious recital that we need.
HOW?
NO DISTRACTIONS

Turn off the electronic gadgets that distract the child. Help the child to concentrate.
Recite

The child repeatedly recites the chosen (5) lines, say 5 to 10 times.
Write ...

In case of a doubt we write an English word to get the correct spelling. So there is
some sort of memory in writing apart from oral, aural and visual memories. The
child recites a line of the table loud and at the same time writes the line. This way
the learning process takes place through the mouth, ear, hand and eyes. (Children
have a tendency to fill the tables by vertical columns; do not allow it as it is a total
waste of time and energy.)
Repeat

This process, reciting and writing, may be repeated morning and evening for a few
days until fluency is achieved. Start with the first block. Only when the child is
thorough with this, move on to the next block.
KEEP UPDATING

Each time you start, check earlier blocks learnt. When you test the child for addition
of 2 single-digit numbers, the response must be instant (not starting from the 1st line
etc.) as if the question was, What is your name?.
TEACH VERY EARLY

To avoid confusing the child, teach tables before the (education) system starts
messing up with numbers and, more importantly, calculations.

You can always mail me for any consultations or clarifications.

ADD SINGLE DIGIT (to Single Digit) with Carryover
01) 8 + 5 = ?
The 8 needs a 2 to make 10; Take this 2 from 5; we are left with 3
8 10; 5 3;
So 8 + 5 = 10 & 3 = 13
02) 7 + 5 = ?
7 takes 3 from 5 leaving behind 2; so 7 + 5 = 12
03) 9 + 8 = ?
9 takes 1 from 8 leaving behind 7; so 9 + 8 = 17

Now that we understand the method, we shall cut the steps.

SUBTRACTION TABLES
One can learn these subtraction tables; but it is not a must.
If one knows addition (tables) well then subtraction (additions reverse process)
is pretty easy, like division is easy if you are thorough with multiplication tables.
All the dotted lines indicate easy results.

APPENDIX III: EXTRA TABLES

MULTIPLICATION TABLES
The 1-table and 10-table are easy.
The 5-table is an interesting pattern and easy to learn. Children love them.
The 10 results with bold letter also form a nice pattern and so these could be
taught as a separate set. Children love these too.
Now take up the remaining tables taking half a block of 5 lines at a time. If the
children take time it does not matter; just encourage them and be positive.
