The two great ancient epics of India, Ramayana and Mahabharata (c. 1000-500 BC) are centered on conflicts and refer to military formations, theories of warfare and esoteric weaponry.
Among the principal works and stories that are a part of the Mahabharata are the Bhagavad Gita, the story of Damayanti, an abbreviated version of the Ramayana, and the Rishyasringa, often considered as works in their own right. Traditionally, the authorship of the Mahabharata is attributed to Vyasa. With about one hundred thousand verses, long prose passages, or about 1.8 million words in total, the Mahabharata is roughly ten times the length of the Iliad and Odyssey combined, or about four times the length of the Ramayana. W. J. Johnson has compared the importance of the Mahabharata to world civilization to that of the Bible, the works of Shakespeare, the works of Homer, Greek drama, and the Qur'an. - Source: Wikipedia

Flying Aircraft & Nuclear War and Other Strange Occurrences of The Past
Edited By James Hartman
The Indian Epics, especially the MAHABHARATA, pick up the thread of the tale of devastation and destruction. Atlantis, rather displeased at its humiliating defeat, deceived that they were no longer interested in subjugating the Rama Empire (An Indian Empire), and decided instead to annihilate the major cities using weapons of mass destruction. Sanskrit scholars could not comprehend what was being described in the Epics until the dropping of the first atomic bombs on Japan. There are AUTHENTIC VERSES from the Indian Epics:

"Gurkha, flying a swift and powerful vimana (fast aircraft)
hurled a single projectile (rocket) charged with the power
of the Universe (nuclear device). An incandescent column of
smoke and flame, as bright as ten thousand suns, rose with
all its splendor.
It was an unknown weapon, an iron thunderbolt, a gigantic
messenger of death, which reduced to ashes the entire race
of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas.
The corpses were so burned as to be unrecognizable.
Hair and nails fell out; Pottery broke without apparent cause,
and the birds turned white.
...After a few hours all foodstuffs were infected...
...to escape from this fire the soldiers threw
themselves in streams to wash themselves and their
equipment." - The Mahabharata

Indeed, this story is said to originate nearly 24,000 years ago!
If this is true than we are not the most advanced.
As the Bible says "There is nothing new under the sun." Evidence for Atlantis is well documented.

If the above was not enough to convince your let me take you in deeper into this nuclear war:

"It was a weapon) so powerful that it could destroy the earth
in an instant A great soaring sound in smoke and flames
And on its sits death..." - The Ramayana
"Dense arrows of flame, like a great shower, issued
forth upon creation, encompassing the enemy...
A thick gloom swiftly settled upon the Pandava hosts.
All points of the compass were lost in darkness.
Fierce wind began to blow upward, showering dust and gravel.
Birds croaked madly... the very elements seemed disturbed.
The earth shook, scorched by the terrible violent heat of this weapon.
Elephants burst into flame and ran to and fro in a frenzy...
over a vast area, other animals crumpled to the ground and died.
From all points of the compass the arrows of flame rained
continuously and fiercely. - The Mahabharata

The Ramayana and the Mahabharata seem like science fiction. Not only did aircraft exist such as Vimanas and Vailxi (as the Atlantian craft are called), they had nuclear weapons. There seems to be a fear of educating the worlds people about the distant past. Even empires and leaders of China's past to Christians to Arab peoples would destroy history in such a way that records of there amazing cultures and events are nearly all wiped out. Indian Epics however are still with us intact. Records of South American history all but gone. Fear, and other factors have removed most of history before 5,000 years. Some only 1,000 years ago. In the America's just 300 -500 years all most all lost! Today, perhaps some UFO records are going the way of fears gate! However, again a few stories live on.

In another amazing Indian text the Agastrya Samhita gives the precise directions for constructing electrical batteries:
"When then next day came, Samva actually brought forth an iron bolt through which all the
individuals in the race of the vrishnis and the andhakas became consumed into ashes."The streets swarmed with rats and mice. Earthen pots showed cracks or broke from no

I was told that I am the ninth person to learn about this secret through Lord Krishna. When I queried who the eighth person was he just smiled and declined to answer. According to Lord Krishna the first and the eighth persons received the same knowledge; unfortunately I don't not know who they were.

Indeed, for the destruction of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas, Samva brougt forth, through

"Place a well-cleaned copper plate in an earthenware vessel.

chain of one hundred jars is said to give a very active

By the way, MITRA-VARUNA is now called cathode-anode, and Pranavayu and Udanavayu are to us oxygen and hydrogen. This document again demonstrates the presence of electricity in the East, long, long ago. In the not so distant past strange events are recorded in Europe's past.

At Mount Cassino in Italy there is a large and heavy stone which was traditionally lifted by Saint Benedict (A.D. 448-548) by the neutralization of gravity. This stone was intended for the wall of the monastery being built at that time. The stonemasons could not budge it. However, Saint Benedict made the sign of the cross on the block, and while the seven men who could not lift it looked in amazement, he raised it alone without any effort. If this is true, than its evidence of God's hand at work!

Even stranger is this: King Ferdinand I was a host to Saint Francis of Paula (1416-1505) in Naples. Through a half-opened door he witnessed the monk in meditation, floating high above the floor of his room.

Again in the fairly long ago past in China Emperor Cheng Tang (1766 B.C.), ordered Ki-Kung-shi to construct a flying chariot. The primeval aviation constructor completed the job and tested the aircraft. In flight, reaching the province of Honan. Subsequently, (from fear) the vessel was destroyed by imperial edict as Cheng Tang feared the secret of its mechanism might fall into the wrong hands.
If one looks at the past he can foresee and even change the future. Will we be faithful to God as the saints and lift objects or ourselves by Gods power? Will we ever come to full out Nuclear War as the people of Atlantis and Rama 24,000 years ago?

Will we build Flying Chariots (Flying Saucers) and destroy them because we fear into what hands they will fall? What will man do to destroy his past, present or future? I leave that question up to you!!!

"It was an unknown weapon, an iron thunderbolt, a gigantic messenger of death, which reduced
to ashes the entire race of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas." is actually found in Section 1 of
Mausala Parva.( http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m16/m16001.htm).

The term "10000 suns" and "Super-abundant" perfectly fit into today's description of Nuclear Energy. In fact what is depicted as an Iron bolt could actually have referred to Radioactive Iron (Iron-59 is known to be radioactive). Perhaps the usage of Iron-59 as a nuclear weapon was known to man in ancient times. The last sentence " to cast the powder into sea", is in good terms with the fact that water is a very effective shield for nuclear radiations. Perhaps that was the intention in casting the iron powder into the sea.

The section 2 of the Mausala parva also has,

and

The above passage too reminds us of the effects of a nuclear explosion, as foodstuffs get infected in the aftermath of a nuclear explosion. In section 3, there is also a mention of the vaishnis taking shelter close to the sea coast. This might have as well meant that the vaisnis took shelter in the sea. As mentioned earlier, water is a natural shield to Nuclear radiations.

These above facts make us really wonder if the Mahabharata was indeed a nuclear war. In aid to the above mentioned facts, India, from times immemorial knew the existence of atoms and the atomic energy. The following shloka is evidence to the statement.

Krishna, Ancient Weapons of Mass Destruction and The Mahabharata

This article was written for the reason of unearthing the secret of ancient nuclear power. The facts stated here were not meant to put the blame on who is wrong or right. Ancient writings (religious texts) already mentioned the existence of such weapons that had very similar capacity as the modern day nuclear war-heads. How the human race faced such terribly destructive weapons in the olden days shall be the focal point of this article.

The nuclear weapons existed in the ancient times and the evidence of their amazing power can be still found in modern days. These weapons were reportedly used during the war of Kurukshetra as documented in the Mahabharata. It is my hope that with this article we could reveal the truth about this ancient nuclear weapons. Prior to the invention of the atom bomb and nuclear war-head of present day, did we, as human ever faced such dangerous and destructive events? Certain factual text described in this article is being compared to that of the Mahabharata.

Angels and Gods from the Mahabharata

Lord Krishna in the Mahabharata was known as the Almighty. His very existence was quite difficult to pinpoint. However, what was clearly evident was that the word "Krish" which means "place" and "Na" means "high" or "highest" in the celestial world. It was also mentioned that Lord Krishna dwelled on the 20th planet called Krishnaloka. Lord Krishna was the ultimate ruler in the highest order amongst the Gods known then.
From the sacred rays that were being transmitted from his back shoulder He created Lord Wishnu who was responsible for the fine behavior and manner of the human kind in this world. Wishnu leaves in the sky that was then known as "blue ocean" or Indraloka. Lord Brahma, on the other hand (who breathes instincts and needs) also was created though the same manner from Lord Krishna's sacred rays. He dwelled on the 19th planet.
Lord Shiva, sacred spirit from Lord Wishnu, came to being from the lotus flower. Lord Shiva was the Lord of destruction and foolishness. Lord Shiva demonstrates his destructive ways when the human world faces war, over-population and famine. The destruction from typhoons, tornadoes, tsunamis, wars and the like were all the work of Lord Shiva. It was said to be the punishment of the planet.

Mahabharata

Mahabharata is an epic describing the war called "Kurukshetra" between Pandavas(Pendawa 5) and Hastina(Astino). It also describes the role of "Ibu Pendawa 5", Dewi Kunti who possesses untold powers. In this war, there was a warrior that was lead by Lord Krishna; named Arjuna. The parties at war were relatives of Arjuna. Within this war, there was this sacred meditation that was formed as guidance to the people when their spirits were lacking. Krishna taught Arjuna about the art of self- defense as well as the finer inner spirit as a human being. It was also believed that Yoga and Yogi were introduced during this period and was upgraded to the ranks of "Roh", "Rah" and "Brahmana".
Apart from the relationship between Gods and humans during this war period, one other important aspect worth our attention is the invention of WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction). It was given to Arjuna by the Lord Krishna to serve as a protective shield for the truth to be successful. It is not clearly said how these WMD were made available to Arjuna, but to the warring families, it was no longer a secret.
This WMD during the Kurukshetra war was known as "Cakra". "Cakra" was the most destructive of all weapons that was given personally by Lord Krishna and Lord Wisnu; called it by the other name of "Sudal Sana" which was more powerful than "Barma Satara" the other WMD. It was said that if released, it would generate a great hot ray, reddish sky and fire-ball.

"Cakra" Launched (Ancient Nuclear)

During the chaos of the said war, one of Arjuna's cousins launched the 5th weapon called "Barma Satara" which had the impact of a mighty nuclear power. According to the legend it was not clear how the relatives of Arjuna got to know the secret to launch such weapons. Arjuna himself had to obtain the consent from Lord Krishna who needed to explain the ways or consequences of such weapons.
It was believed that as a result of this launch; it has created layers upon layers of hot rays that penetrated the sky and slowly settled on to the earth (as multiple layers). Upon realizing that the never before used weapon has been accidentally released by his own cousin; and upon seeing the massive destruction that this weapon brought, Arjuna pleaded with Lord Krishna to gather all resources to protect what was left on the earth from the massive heat. With the kind guidance from Lord Krishna, Arjuna managed to protect the earth from the nuclear heat-wave by deflecting it skyward. This prevented the earth from complete destruction by such nuclear disaster. It was also told that the nuclear cloud and heat-wave were noticeable in the area tens of kilometers wide and approximately 10 nautical miles in thickness.
During the "Kuruthesa", Arjuna, who was coached directly by Krishna on the righteous way of a true noble being and the right path to eternity, was also introduced to Yoga. Arjuna was to practice it whenever he faced adversity. "Bhakti Yoga" practiced for 20 minutes would allow the mere mortal to overcome adversity and reach for Lord's guidance.

"Cakra"- Weapon of Mass Destruction during "Kurukshetra"

According to Lord Krishna, the WMD was further divided into three levels:

Highest "Cakra" (weapon) but never before used: "Sudal Sana";
this was the most secretive and complicated weapons owned by Lord Krishna himself.
The energy from this weapon would be able to destroy dozens of planets

Second "Cakra": "Barma Satara" was a gift from "Dewa Api" to Lord Krishna and has 7 levels:

Level "Barma Satara" First

Level "Barma Satara" Second

Level "Barma Satara" Third

Level "Barma Satara" Fourth

Level "Barma Satara" Fifth (used by Arjuna's cousin during "Kuruthesa")

Level "Barma Satara" Sixth (equivalent to the destruction of Hiroshima)

Level "Barma Satara" Seventh ( widely used for self protection and medicines around the world)

Third "Cakra" - has eleven sub-species (1-11)

"Cakra Barma Satara" was a gift presented to Lord Krishna by "Dewa Api" also known "Angeni Dewa" during one of the anniversary celebrating the re-birth of Lord Krishna in the year of "Kaliyuga". Those who attended were Wishnu, Brahma, Shiva, Surian, Govindran (King of Heaven) and Maharaja Kartu. From the ancient Sanskrit scripture, it was widely mentioned that the Gods were using weapons of high destructive power similar to that of nuclear power. However, it must be noted that the ancient weapons did not utilize the same earthly materials as its contents. As mentioned above, "Cakra Sudal Sana" and "Barma Satara" were ancient nuclear weapons that had its own levels of complexity. Each levels had different rays of destruction. The advantages of these weapons were their ability to be controlled and to benefit other human activities or served as a source of massive energy for human kind to operate with. From the local knowledge and also from the researchers of ancient Hindu Jawa scriptures, it was proven that these weapons were well known and were in widely used at different level of skills that benefited human kind in many places on earth.

"Cakra" presently in used for various reasons

From the vicinity, "Barma Satara" the seventh was used widely as means to fight paranormal activities as well as a form of self-protection, medicine and war (not for massive destruction). Right up until now, its usage was limited to "Barma Satara" the seventh only as the operative secret was limited to this level. "Barma Satara" seventh has limited source of energy but it's beneficial to the human kind in this region.

Examples: energy from "Barma Satara" seventh used by present human kind;

1. "Keris Terbang" ( Keris/Ancient Malay Weapon and Terbang means fly )

a. "keris Sumiyang"

b. "keris Brojol"

c. "keris Majapahit"

2. "Tuju Tuju" ( Black magic weapon)

3. "Bola Api" (Fire Ball)

4. It is believed from the ancient Sanskrit scriptures that thunder and lightning were small fractions of "Barma Satara" energy sources that utilized small scale nuclear power to chase away devils who prevented the rains from falling to the ground

Most of the sacred and magical power within the weapon's structures and medicines used the energy similarly used in "Kurukthesa".
All these mantras and key-words were made known to me. It has never crossed my mind to use it except for the good of humankind.
It could be summarized that all these energies from those ancient weapons were the source of energy of all magical yet mysterious events during ancient times. As a general observation, I would conclude that the reason as to why there's such abundance of inherited petroleum was that humankind before us had the ability to utilize better sources of energy that were more powerful and environmentally friendly.

"Chakra" - Mantras

"Chakra" or weapons of such kind can only be manifested through mantras and key-words that could activate them. These weapons called "Chakra" were not formed by earthly means like fire, water, air nor earth; they could only be manifested through a few mantras. These concepts were commonly written in the old ancient scriptures, they existed in historical periods. What attracted me was that in physical form, these weapons could be launched and also could be stopped or prevented before they cause destruction to the earth.

The processes of the ancient nuclear power could be interpreted as follows:
During Launching:

i) Key words or mantras to be uttered

ii) The earth composition would be changed and heat wave and massive rays would be released into the air

iii) At a sudden, a cloud of rays and heat will concentrate and a form a thick layer on top of the earth atmosphere

iv) These layers of heat and rays would then cascade down to earth and resulting in massive destruction

v) The end result would be worse than a nuclear explosion as the process involved the huge compactness of the wind and the air combined during this process

During the prevention of the heat and rays layer from reaching the earth

I) Key words or mantras to be uttered

II) The layers would then stopped in mid-air and vanishes before touching the earth's surface

III) These whole layers would then disappears from the air

As to what happened in "kuruthesa" ( when Arjuna prevented the rays and heat-wave to penetrate to the earth), the heat-wave actually it vanished into thin air before it impacted the earth. The ability to know such structures and methods of these weapons would be beneficial for the present day humankind to compete with the mysteries of ancient beings and also would help to resolve the energy processes that would be simpler and could prolong the lifespan of this planet.

Future hopes that are strange and mystifying

It is my hope that with the revelation of the secrets to the mantras of the ancient nuclear power, we could further change the nuclear weapons into ultimate energy source.

Lord Krishna advised me that all these sources of energy should be used by mankind for sole purpose of good. According to Lord Krishna, he would come to anyone and explain the secret text to anyone he fancies regardless of his/her race or religion. Lord Krishna exists in his own form and no mantras or religion can make Him to reveal Himself, unless He wishes to do so.

Neanderthal man and hominid species in Ramayana

One of the most important characters in ramayana are Vanaras. Ramayana Never mentioned Vanaras as monkeys. As per the description laid out in Ramayana, Vanaras are special species of humans that looked like monkeys. Lord Hanuman, king Sugreev, Nal & neel(Sons of Celestial architect Vishwakarma) were some of the Vanaras mentioned in Ramayan. Valmiki also indicated that this species was dominant in southern part of India and ruled more or less whole of south India including Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and other south east countries. In this article, we will see the various evidences that shows Neanderthal or Homo sapiens were a different species that co-existed with man. Later due to survival of the fittest and various ecological disturbances, this species became extinct Vanaras is formed by combining two sanskrit words - What the indologist says about Neanderthal man and Ramayana?Not only monkeys like animal is mentioned in Ramayana, but also bear like living beings. Jambavantha(Bear like man) mentioned in Ramayana is similar to Yetis in other parts of the world. Yetis are also known as snow man, said to be found in icy regions of world. There are many stories based on such characters though no fossils fuels have been found to conclude their presence. Bear is called as bhalluka in Sanskrit and hence, Jambavantha was definitely not bear but resembled very closely Bears, just like vanaras resembled monkeys. According to Ramayana, Vanaras existed all around in the world but were dominant in south India, especially in Kishkinda kingdom, a small place near Hampi in modern Karnataka. In Mahabharata, when lord Krishna Encounters Jambavan (the bearman from Ramayana), Ancient historical records in Sanskrit clearly states Ramayana and Mahabharata as Itihaasas(history), not stories. In my articles, I have detailed at least fifty evidences of both Ramayana and mahabharata. Even 18 Puranas(Meaning "Story of ancient times") confirms the details mentioned in Mahabharata and Ramayana. Valmiki or sage Vyasa never said they were writing stories. Some of the western authors declared Ramayana as having contradiction. Problem with science is that they cannot approve the historicity of Ramayana since it says about talking conscious vultures, monkeys etc, all of which shows a reverse evolutionHistorian wrongly claims that Vedic culture existed only in India. Evidences of Vedic culture are found in places as far as Russia, Europe and America. Recently, 1500 year old Lord Vishnu idol was excavated in Russia. <Evolution theory is a total crap theory. Evolution theories say chimpanzees, gorillas and monkeys as our ancestors, all of which exists today Actually, there is nothing like evolution, only there is adaptation. Today, most of the Indians have become so westernized that they have become pseudo-scientific and hence, doubts our ancient historical records. But at the same time, western world is moving toward Indian scriptures to dig out some clues about our ancient past and supreme universal truth. Now I end up by asking a question to you

Meaning of Vanaras
Van (meaning Forest) and nara(meaning human). So vanaras literally means- humans who dwelled in forests. However, some of the Sanskrit scholar's states that Vanaras also mean "Humans who looked like monkeys", noting the fact that monkeys also dwell in forests. Vanaras were definitely not Monkeys since monkey is called as vanakapi or kapi or markata in Sanskrit.

Why finding evidences of Neanderthal man is difficult in India?According to archeological and scientific evolutionary studies, Neanderthal was a species that inhabited Europe, Africa and western Asia, starting some 2, 30,000 years ago. Neanderthal man had a hyoid bone which enabled them to speak and look like humans very closely. Though some evidences of Neanderthal man were found in Indus valley civilization, finding any solid evidences of ancient primates in India is not so easy as Indians follows a very long cultural tradition of burning bodies after death, no matter if they were animals. Furthermore, bones in Indian peninsula decay in few thousands of years. This makes it even more difficult to find traces of Neanderthals man in India.

Neanderthal man(Left), Lord Hanuman (Vanara) hugging lord Ram*(Right)

Some of the indologist thinks Ramayana to be a historical story of very ancient times when Neanderthals and home sapiens existed on earth, while some of the Indian and European scientists claims of Neanderthals existence some 7000-10000 yrs ago having a tail, resembling very closely with Vanaras like lord Hanuman and king Sugreev. Some of the historians suggest Vanaras to be Neanderthals that lived in South India at least 5, 00,000 years ago but some of the indologist believes Vanaras as a separate species like hominids or apes found only in south East Asia. Description mentioned in Ramayana matches with the anthropological modern day descriptions of Neanderthals except th features of tail. Both Vanaras and Neanderthal had sloping foreheads, hairy bodies, protruding jawbones/mouths etc. The reason why modern day anthropologist didn't find a tail was because the tail of Vanaras was boneless and hence decomposed within few years. If you read the description of Vanara kingdom (Kishkindha) then you will find that it clearly resembles a network of connected underground mountain caves.

Caves of Kishkindha kingdom in hampi, Karnataka

This is what the modern day anthropologists say about Neanderthals man who lived in caves. Obviously, Vanaras were physically different than Manavas(Humans), but definitely they were not monkeys. Actually the problem with most anthropologists and historians is that since vanaras don't exist today, they are trying to imagine Vanaras in terms of something or somebody they know or have seen and hence, compare them with Homo erectus and Neanderthals man. May be they were a different species altogether.

Ramayana also says about bear like man(Yetis)?

Jambavan(Left) and yetis(Right)

Evidences from Ramayana that Vanaras were Neanderthals man
When Rama decided to attack Lanka, King sugreeva(Head of Vanaras) summons Vanaras from all over the world to join the Lord Rama army in south India. Vanaras from across the world were very excited to help lord rama and came from regions like Himalayas, Vindhyas (modern Madhya pradesh), Meru (in modern tibet) etc. Further, there are mention of some places not found anywhere in India like Dhumragiri, Ajjanparvat etc. Valmiki also explicitly stated that Vanaras came from far off places where the sun always shines or is always set. Any wise person will immediately understand that Valmiki is talking about Polar Regions. Since no evidence of Vanaras are found anywhere in the world, it can be inferred that Ramayana is a very ancient story, at least few millions of years old. Those days, south India was full of dense forests, a fact clearly evident from the present sahyadri range. Valmiki clearly stated that Vanaras looked like monkeys and had traits of monkeys. For Ex: Valmiki referred to members of Vanaras army as kapi kunjaraaH, which in Sanskrit means elephant sized monkeys. Valmiki inferred that Vanaras were not like normal small monkeys but a different species of monkey, having a strong physique and traits of monkeys like Neanderthal man. Valmiki also used terms like nityam asthira-chitta, meaning one whose mind fickle endlessly(traits of monkey) and kapitam anavastitam which means one who cannot stay in one place for a moment (traits of monkey).

Evidences from Mahabharata that Vanaras were Neanderthals man
lord Krishna says that Jambavan is one of the last surviving creatures of its kind. Lord Krishna also says that since his species have vanished, he is not welcomed in society anymore. Jamabavan(blessed with long life by lord Rama) lives in caves. Lord Krishna says the same thing to Lord Hanuman (Blessed with immortality) thus implying that lord Hanuman was the last among the Vanaras.

Jambavan requesting lord Krishna to accept her daughter

Mahabharata (History of 3rd millennium (3076 BC)) validates the fact that Vanaras and Yetis like species have become extinct. Thus, Mahabharata confirms the existence of lord Rama and all species mentioned in Ramayana. I don't see any reason why Sage vyasa should mention about Jambavan(Irrelevant to the story) if he intended to write a fictional story of war between Pandavas and kauravas. This implies that Ramayana is a very ancient history of India which made it ways to other civilization in America, Asia and Europe etc.

Ramayana and Mahabharata are Indian history, not mythology

Sage Valmiki, a pure soul will not say fictional story as history

There is no need to detail out geographical locations, astronomical data, and chronological orders etc in fictional stories. Ancient Indians never had the tradition of writing stories since they were never short of real life heroes.

There is no contradiction in Ramayana and Mahabharata
Just because Valmiki in one place as referred Vanaras as monkeys and other place as human-like monkeys, it doesn't contradicts anything. Mercury is both an element as well as planet. It has dual meaning and hence its symbolism depends upon the situation.
For EX: let us assume that cats are totally wiped out of earth and some sage has written exclusively on cats as pets. Few millenniums later, when people will start reading these books, they might think that People used tigers as pets since they don't have any fossil remains of cats but they have wild tigers that are not extinct. Some people will claim this story as false since tigers cannot become pets. While others will say tigers say Grrrrr and not meow. Tigers don't drink milk and are not small enough to be domesticated. What a crap!!! Hence proved, sages wrote a fictional story.

Why modern science doesn't believe in Ramayana and Mahabharata?
. i.e ancient humans were more advanced and conscious than present humans.
Lord rama treating talking Vulture 'Jatayu'

Also note the fact that Indian scriptures state the degrading level of yugas and hence, humans in kaliyuga(Present age) are spiritually and consciously less advanced. This is the fact scientists are finding hard to digest as they believe they are superior and more advanced than all preceding humans. Problem with most scientists is that they try to fit everything into the current set of theories and if they find anything which doesn't fit in current scenario, they discard it. In 1 st century AD, earth was regarded as the center of the static universe but today, universe having no center, is said to be ever-expanding. People usually say, we follow a blind faith or religion but there are many scientific theories that are totally crap and were believed as true few centuries ago. Believe in science but comprehend the fact that everything written in scientific books are not proven science.

Vedic culture existed everywhere

Idol excavated in Russia
Check below link
http://globalhinduism.com/2012/12/20/ancient-idol-of-lord-vishnu-found-during-excavation-in-an-old-village-in-russias-volga-region/>

Geography in Vedic texts covered entire earth and not just India. For EX: In Vedic text, arctic region is called as Ilavrta Varsha but today, nobody knows arctic region by that name. All the European languages have linguistic roots in Sanskrit. Max muller and other western authors tried their best to show their false dominance by misrepresenting facts and blunders theories like Aryan invasion theory but ultimately the truth came out and Vedic civilization has been proved indigneous to india. No other texts except Indian ancient texts talks about history beyond 10,000 BC.

Theory of evolution is totally crap
. Why only some of the chimpanzees, gorillas and monkeys evolved as man while others remained as it is. Just because Darwin saw some adaptation happening in some isolated island in one of the species, he derived a theory out of that and fooled everyone to believe in it. Just because he found adaptation changes in one or two species, he created a generic theory and applied it on all animals. There is no reason why I should buy such unproved shortsighted theories. Modern Day anthropologists have found skeletal remains of both Neanderthals (Tribal's cave man) and Homosapiens(Humans) at the same sites dating back to the same time period. This confirms the fact that different species of humans co-existed and evolution theory is a crap. All species that adapted to the environmental changes around them survived while all other species became extinct. For ex.: Cat, a carnivore have adapted to vegetarian food. Similarly, humans have adapted to both vegetarian and non vegetarian diet. Humans always co-existed with other species of its kind like Vanaras, Homo erectus and Neanderthals man.

Lord Ram and Lord Hanuman (Last of the extinct species 'Vanaras')

Our earth has possibly gone through massive global destructions like Volcanoes, asteroid impact, earthquakes, cyclones, tectonic movements, ice age etc all of which totally capable of wiping out some of the weak species.

Conclusion:

Given the fact that Ramayana occurred millions of years ago in Treta yuga, do you believe that some kind of hominid species like Bear-Humans and monkey-humans existed at that time?

One of the most important characters in ramayana is Vanaras. Ramayana Never mentioned Vanaras as monkeys. As per the description laid out in Ramayana, Vanaras are special species of humans who looked like monkeys. Lord Hanuman king Sugreev, Nal & neel(Sons of Celestial architect Vishwakarma) were some of the Vanaras mentioned in Ramayan.

Another theory identifies the Vanaras with the tribal people, who dwelled in the forests and used monkey totems. G. Ramdas, based on Ravana's reference to the Vanaras' tail as an ornament, infers that the "tail" was actually an appendage in the dress worn by the men of the Savara tribe.

SUMMARY: The Story of Ramayana, the Hindu Epic

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The ancient Indian epic poem Ramayana is one of the most important in Hindu literature. It follows the adventures of Prince Rama as he rescues his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana and espouses lessons in morality and faith for Hindus the world over.

Background and History

The Ramayana is one of the longest epic poems in Hinduism, with more than 24,000 verses. Although its precise origins are unclear, the poet Valmiki is generally credited with writing the Ramayana in the 5th century B.C.

The text is considered one of India's two major ancient epics, the other being the Mahabharata.

Synopsis of the Story of Ramayana

Rama, the prince of Ayodhya, is the eldest son of King Dasharatha and his wife Kaushalya. Although Rama is his father's choice to succeed him, the king's second wife, Kaikei, wants her own son on the throne. She schemes to send Rama and his wife Sita into exile, where they remain for 14 years.

While living in the forest, Sita is kidnapped by the demon king Ravana, the 10-headed ruler of Lanka. Rama pursues her, aided by his brother Lakshmana and the mighty monkey general Hanuman. They attack Ravana's army and succeed in killing the demon king, freeing Sita after a fierce battle and reuniting her with Rama.

Rama and Sita return to Ayodhya and are warmly welcomed back by the citizens of the kingdom, where they rule for many years and have two sons. Eventually, Sita is accused of being unfaithful, and she must undergo a trial by fire to prove her chastity.

She appeals to Mother Earth and is saved, but she vanishes into immortality.

Major Themes

Though their actions in the text, Rama and Sita come to embody the ideals of matrimony through their devotion and love for one another. Rama inspires loyalty among his people for his nobility, while Sita's self-sacrifice is seen as the ultimate demonstration of chastity.

Rama's brother Lakshmana, who chose to be exiled with his sibling, embodies familial loyalty, while Hanuman's performance on the battlefield exemplifies bravery and nobility.

Influence on Popular Culture

As with the Mahabharata, the Ramayana's influence spread as Hinduism expanded throughout the Indian subcontinent in the centuries after it was written. Rama's victory over evil is celebrated during the holiday of Vijayadashami or Dussehra, which takes place in September or October, depending on when it falls during the Hindu lunisolar month of Ashvin.

The folk drama Ramlila, which recounts the story of Rama and Sita, is frequently performed during the festival, and effigies of Ravana are burned to symbolize the destruction of evil. The Ramayana has also been a frequent subject of movies and TV miniseries in India, as well as an inspiration to artists from ancient to contemporary times.

Further Reading

With more than 24,000 verses and 50 chapters, reading the Ramayana is no simple task. But for the Hindu faith and non-Hindus alike, the epic poem is a classic worth reading. One of the best sources for Western readers is a translation by Steven Knapp, a practicing American Hindu with an interest in the faith's history and scholarship.

India, according to Dr.V. Raghavan, retired head of the Sanskrit department of India's prestigious University of Madras, was alone in playing host to extraterrestrials in prehistory. Dr. Raghavan contends that centuries-old documents in Sanskrit (the classical language of India and Hinduism) prove that aliens from outer space visited his nation.
