His philosophy was regular of word of mouth but he wanted to reach to a big crowd. He does not want people to immediately reject his ideas, he wants people look into it and think for themselves, if the universe is really geocentric. He finds people to believe in the motions of the other planets are correlated with orbiting the earth, and are computed for revolution of each planet, the order and size of all planets and sphere, and heaven would be linked together, in that nothing can be changed without disrupting the remaining parts of the universe as a whole.
