But some part of this city is still available and Devotee people go their and pray for lord Krishna.

When underwater settlements are concerned within Indian marine archaeology, the most talked about would be the ancient city of Dwarka. As the legend goes, Krishna, the most powerful personality in Mahabharat, is said to have founded the city, in a place with the same name at the Devbhoomi Dwarka district in Gujarat's west coast. Dwarka is one of the best-studied underwater sites in India.

My quest for Dwarka had started when I became a student of archaeology. I was blessed with the opportunity to have come across a book on underwater archaeology in India. This book caught my interest and helped build and develop my thirst for marine archaeology in the country.

When one concerns themselves with marine archaeology, the first thing we should understand should be that of what defines it. Though, most commonly because of the word "Marine" the definition sometimes misleads the common minds.

According to ancient Hindu texts, Dwarka was a skirmish ground for Krishna and the evil King Salva. As the Mahabharat says, King Salva attacked Dwarka with a flying machine. It is the description of the battle that draws the attention of the ancient alien theorists, as it seems to suggest it was fought with sophisticated technology and advanced weapons, potentially with a craft attacking from the orbit. The space craft commenced an attack on the city with the use of energy weapons, which to on-lookers resembled lightning.

The attack was so devastating that most of the city lay in ruins.

Lord Krishna counterattacked and fired his weapons on the ship. Mythology describes them as arrows roaring like thunder and shining like the rays of the sun when released. The Indian mythology is replete with accounts of how the original Dwarka looked like.

Mahabharat says that Dwarka had 900,000 royal palaces, all constructed with crystal and silver and decorated with emeralds. The city was connected by an elaborate system of boulevards, roads, market places, assembly houses and temples. These legends have been etched into the Indian minds for so long that their authenticity is not questioned. Luckily, due to the grace of the marine archaeological department of India, the childhood stories have come to be a reality to a great extent.

Marine archaeological explorations have thrown light on a number of structures of different shapes, stone anchors and other artefacts. The exploration has found sandstone walls, a grid of streets and remains of a sea port, some 70 feet beneath the sea. The evidence points to the fact of the existence of a city some 9,000 years ago. Also according to them this was one of the most important and busy ports during historical and medieval periods.

The detailed exploration and excavation of this sunken city was started in 1988 with certain goals and results in mind:
1. The explorations were extended up to the Temple of Samudranarayan (Sea God), in order to trace the extent of the port city and the purpose behind the massive stone walls built on the banks of the ancient Gomati River.
2. Whether the architectural features were in conformity to the ones described in the Mahabharat.
3. To obtain a more corroborative evidence for reclamation referred to in the epic.
4. The nick point where the Gomati River joined the sea had to be determined.
5. The cause of the submergence

Dwarka was supposed to have been built on six blocks, two on the right bank and four on the left. All the six sectors have protective walls built of dressed stones of sandstones. Whatever has been traced so far conforms to the description of Dwarka in the Mahabharat to a large extent. For example, the enclosures may correspond to the Antahpurs (harems) of the texts.

Similarly, the large number of stone anchors is indicative of overseas trade. The large ships were anchored to the sea, whereas the small ones were near to the warehouses on the Gomati, part of which has been submerged.

Marine archaeology has proved that the existence of the Dwarka and its submergence in the IInd millennium B.C referred to in the Mahabharat, Harivamsa, Matsya and Vayu Purans (Sanskrit texts) is a fact and not fiction.

Another crucial evidence is provided by Mudra (seal) in use of which there is a reference in the Harivamsa.

Dwarka excavations by the archaeological department have demonstrated that the rich underwater cultural heritage of India can be successfully explored, excavated, retrieved and preserved.

We are belong form Gujarat India;Especially in my country one myths about gujarati people and it is, We are big fan of food especially "Khaman & Dhokla". and other myths about Gujarati is we all Gujarati are businessmen.

Connection:
According to us we can say that the patternicity  is connect with this myths because as per people's believe the Gujarati community become one pattern like they are big fan of food, they are also thing about business. so I think it is one myths in other's mind.If we go in real then we found that it wrong for all people no doubt it right for all most people but for all.

You'll hear people talk about them, bitch about them and curse them. But the fact remains that you can't ignore them. Yes, it is indeed true. We are everywhere. Being a Gujarati comes with its own set of pros and cons. Here are some things you have definitely faced if you're a Gujju.

1. The overseas myth - "You must have so many relatives abroad!"

Yes, agreed that we have turned some parts of USA into Gujju colonies (which I'm not proud of BTW) but some of us are not getting visas because of this. No, not all of us have relatives in the UK and USA (or Canada, Australia, NZ, and so on...). We've spread far and wide but some of us are still rooted in our motherlands. Cut us some slack. Not all of us like statements like, "Oh! You must be having so many relatives abroad!" or "USA must be like a next-door neighbor to you."

2. The Modi myth - "Narendra Modi must be your role model."

Most of us do behave like we own the Prime Minister just because he is Gujarati, but there are a few of us who don't just blindly believe in everything he does or says. Just like there are believers and non-believers in everything, so is the case here (mind you, I'm not saying that I don't like him). I know many people in the Gujarati community who don't hang on to his every word, and against popular belief, we too, disagree with some, few or many of his beliefs, so don't ask us if he is a God to us or if he is our role model.

3. Thepla, khakra, khaman, dhokla - "Is thepla and khakra your favorite food?"

Yes, we are a foodie community and proudly so. Being Gujaratis, all of us have been pestered endlessly about this. But there are some of us who are beyond khakra and thepla and in fact there are few of us who don't like these items at all. So, stop assuming that these are our favorite food items.

4. The accent - "How come your English is so good?"

This one irritates me the most and being an English trainer+writer, I have been asked this by almost every person I have ever come across. Yes, it's hard to believe that a Gujarati can be fluent in English, but don't ridicule them instead of respecting them. Not all of us mix our 'holes' and 'halls' so take a chill pill.

5. Businessman/woman - "Your father must be businessman."

Most Gujaratis are very successful businessmen and it's a matter of great pride for our community. But even this has its consequences. Almost every person we come across will say to us, "Your father must be a businessman." So, let's get it out there that some of us belong to the service and labor class. Not every Gujarati can be an Ambani, c'mon!

6. Limited friends - "Why do you have only Gujju friends?"

Well, because it's hard not to! As I said earlier, we're everywhere. But that does not mean we do not befriend people from other communities. I, myself, take great pride in saying I have friends from almost each community ranging from north to south, east to west, and minority to majority. And no, we do not consider people from other communities as being lower to us. Even that is a myth. We're sweet, fun loving and warm people. 😀

7. The travelling myth - "You must be carrying an entire bag of snacks while travelling."

Who doesn't like traveling? I mean, any person irrespective of his/her community loves doing this. And what's wrong with carrying some snacks and food while away from home? It's for our good, no? Comes in handy when there's nothing available. And the people who ask such questions are the first ones to come crawling to us for food when hungry (double standards I tell you). Yes, we prefer to carry our food, but even here, not all of us do this. So, stop assuming that just because your co traveler is a Gujju, he must be carrying khakra and thepla.

8. Navratri myth - "Navratri must be your favorite festival."

Umm...okay...we overdo this one. But who doesn't like to dance? You don't? Well let me tell you then that not all Gujratis love garba and Navratri (surprised?!). In fact, some of us crib about the loudspeakers and irrelevant expenses just as you do. So, next time you're around a Gujju, don't be so sure of the Navratri love.

All said and done, we don't mind it when people poke fun at us (only reflects on our popularity) but then it's wrong to assume a person's habits and preferences based on his community. You'd not like it either, would you? So, all I am saying is, next time you come across a Gujarati, see if you can refrain from doing the above. Now, I am going to go have some khakras and thepla s.

Aavjo!! 😉

The biggest diabetes myth is that people with diabetes can't eat sugar

There are a number of myths about diabetes that are all too commonly reported as facts. These misrepresentations of diabetes can sometimes be harmful and lead to an unfair stigma around the condition.

Diabetes information is widely available, both from healthcare professionals and the Internet, but not all of it is true.

It can be hard to know what is accurate, so this page aims to highlight the top ten of the most common diabetes myths.

As well as diabetes myths, you may be interested in these diabetes facts.

Myth 1: People with diabetes can't eat sugar

This is one of the most common diabetes myths; that people with the condition have to eat a sugar-free diet.

People with diabetes need to eat a diet that is balanced, which can include some sugar in moderation.

People with diabetes can eat sugar.

Myth 2: Type 2 diabetes is mild

This diabetes myth is widely repeated, but of course it isn't true.

No form of diabetes is mild.

If type 2 diabetes is poorly managed it can lead to serious (even life-threatening) complications.

Good control of diabetes can significantly decrease the risk of complications but this doesn't mean the condition itself is not serious.

Myth 3: Type 2 diabetes only affects fat people

Whilst type 2 diabetes is often associated with being overweight and obese by the media, it is patently untrue that type 2 diabetes only affects overweight people.

Around 20% of people with type 2 diabetes are of a normal weight, or underweight.

Myth 4: People with diabetes should only eat diabetic food

Diabetic food is one of the most common myths of the last ten years. The label 'diabetic' is often used on sweets foods. Often sugar alcohols, or other sweeteners, will be used instead of sugar. Diabetic food will often still affect blood glucose levels, is expensive, and may also cause adverse side effects.

Diabetes charity Diabetes UK recommends that people with diabetes avoid diabetic food.

Myth 5: People with diabetes go blind and lose their legs

Diabetes is a leading cause of blindness and also causes many amputations each year. However, those people with diabetes that control blood pressure, glucose, weight and quit smoking all increase their chances of remaining complication free.

Blindness and amputation are therefore preventable and the vast majority of people with diabetes will avoid blindness and amputation, particularly if annual diabetic health checks are attended each year.

Myth 6: People with diabetes are dangerous drivers

This myth is based around an inaccurate generalisation. The main danger of driving for people with diabetes is if hypoglycemia occurs.

However, hypoglycemia is a preventable state and the vast majority of people with diabetes at risk of hypos exercise care to avoid hypos taking place whilst driving.

Statistics show that diabetics are no less safe on the road than anyone else with significant accidents being attributed to hypoglycemia affecting less 0.2% of drivers treated with insulin.

However, the myth that people with diabetes are dangerous drivers is ongoing.

Myth 7: People with diabetes shouldn't play sport

High-prominence diabetic sportsmen and women have disproved this diabetes myth. People with diabetes should take part in exercise to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

There are some factors worth considering before partaking in sport, but there is no reason why people with diabetes can't participate in most cases.

Myth 8: People with diabetes can't do many jobs

Having diabetes won't stop you from having a job and with the improvements that have been made in treatment of diabetes, the number of jobs that people with diabetes are ineligible for is now very small.

The armed forces is one profession which may prevent people with diabetes from entering specific roles, such as front line service, but many other positions will be accessible.

It's worth noting that people with diabetes that cannot work, for individual sight or mobility reasons, may be entitled to specific benefits.

Myth 9: People with diabetes are more likely to be ill

People with diabetes are not more likely to have colds or other illnesses. The significance of illness for people with diabetes is that it can make the management of blood glucose levels more difficult which can increase the severity of an illness or infection. Prevention of illness is particularly important and therefore flu jabs are advisable and free.

Myth 10: Diabetes is contagious

Something of a classic playground myth, diabetes cannot be caught off someone else. Diabetes is categorised as being a non-communicable illness meaning it cannot be passed on by sneezing, through touch, nor via blood or any other person to person means.

The only way in which diabetes can be passed on is from parents to their own children but even this is only a genetic likelihood of diabetes and not the condition itself.

Description:
In our culture there are one myth it is if we hand chill and lemon at the door of home and office we can protect our prosperity, behind this myths there are one story about the Alskhmi(sister of Lakshmi).Because the lemon and chilli create some energy which work as security.

Connection:
We can connect patternicity to this myths because from the this myths come from very past and all other people are believe in that and now it is become one pattern for all so we think it is one of the connection for that.
Secondly, mystical energy is one more connection for this myths because in this world not a single fix thing which generate energy. if you see in the image there are lemon and chills fixed by cotton thread.
But the real fact is lemon and chill is big resource for vitamin C and if you fix them by cotton thread, thread absorb the sour and chills smell and make air fresh.

Description:
In Hindu religion many people and stories says about the, "creation of earth and in those stories all mention lord Brahma" .

Connection:
since: According to science here have been different approaches at separate instances of time. Perhaps the most popular of approach states that the highest of deities were oblivious to their own presence before the existence of time itself. Before the creation, there was no time, no heaven or earth or the space in between. There was the dark ocean that washed into the shores of nothingness.

And in Hindu religion same thing mention and also support today's science law but still it' conf-usable
to believe how  one man means lord Brahma developed.

Reflection :
1. In the starting we did not thought that we get a this many story from our culture and country. But we shocked while we found about the the city Dwarka.

2. For us this topics are very relevant because these all stuffs are playing around us from our childhood.

3. As we discussed above Dwarka is quite interesting for us because we believe in lord Krishna and we use to visit Dwarka so this city is very close to us.

4. from this research we must like to remember all the things but we must like about the city of lord Ganesha Mumabai, we posted video and  that's in a Hindi but it's very interested.

5. After doing all the activity now we are at that stage where we can say that Ghost is one of the harmful topic from all the topics and Astrology is one of the least harmful.

6.  In our families all members are believe in god so we like to share knowledge about god and like to say believe in god but with the critical thinking
