There
is an ideology belief in Hinduism, i.e., the one who has forgotten his past
will not succeed and he will lose everything in time. That sad thing about our
Hinduism had happened already. We have forgotten our Virtue, Karma and Dharma.
We have forgotten our Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas and the morality they taught
us.
As
I believe strongly that Hinduism is the superior of all religions and Hindu mythology
is the oldest one among those. The religion’s such as Christianity and Islam
has its original ancestors from Hinduism. The ‘silence years ‘ or
‘Unknown years ’ of Jesus Christ as stated in the ‘New testament’ doesn’t
have any information about his 18 years of life. (I.e. From his age of 12 – 30
).
As
per the theories by Louis Jacolliot -1869, Nicolas Notovich – 1887 , Levi
H. Dowling – 1908, they stated that Jesus were in India before the
‘crucifixion’ and was inspired by the Hindu ideology. The Islam differs not
more than Hinduism, the following days and moral clearly explains how it was inspired
by the great old Hinduism.
The
debate never ends whether the above stated religions are inspired or originated
from Hinduism. The fact is that people don’t want to lose their faith on their
religion and they won’t support this idea of analyzing which is origin of their
religion. Anyway, let’s stop analysing this here and we are here only to
witness the great in Hinduism and its values.
The
Hindu mythology is driven by the Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas and the morality
they taught. The Ramayana and Mahabharata along with Srimad Bhagavad-Gita are
the famous among them. I believe that our ancestors had all the technology
we have now and the one that we didn’t even think beyond. I am trying to list
down the technology that our ancestors had, this is purely my idea and
perception as I came through many of our archaeological studies and articles.
Cloning:
I
believe that our people were aware of this technology before yugas. For example,
we will take the sayings of our Lord Krishna. He told that, ‘Whenever and wherever
there is a problem and if something is threatening the mankind and its morality,
I will be there’ ( Note Whenever ). Also he told that “I will be born here at
so and so place “. The same person born in different places with same
abilities and ideas. From this I conclude that this is none other than cloning.
The
Srimad-Bhagavatam (4.14.43) relates, “After making a decision, the saintly
persons and sages churned the thighs of dead body of King Vena with great force
and according to a specific method. As a result of this churning, a dwarf-like
person was born from King Vena’s body”. Here a viable human being was produced
from a dead body that had been preserved from decay by a special process. Here
again the soul entered its next body without the aid of seminal fertilization.
The process seems similar to cloning or the production of a complete individual
from a single somatic cell of the parent organism.
Test
Tube Babies: We will consider the first case as the history of
Gandhari, who gave birth to one hundred sons. Srila Prabhupada, describing how
these sons were born, comments on a verse in the Bhagavatam’s First Canto
(1.13.4): “[At first] she [Gandhari] gave birth to a lump of flesh only, but
since she was a devotee of Vyasadeva, by the instruction of Vyasadeva the lump
was divided into a hundred parts, and each part gradually developed to become a
male child”. This is like growing many trees by planting branches taken from
one tree. It goes without saying that the souls of the one hundred sons have to
enter the one hundred pieces of flesh at some point. You should also note that
since the one hundred embryos developed outside the womb, the Mahabharata (from
which Srila Prabhupada draws the information about Gandhari) deserves priority
for giving the earliest known report of test-tube babies.
Life
Saving Medicine: This is one of my favourites.
Everyone who knows Ramayana also knows the Herbal medicine that saved Laxman’s
life. That herbal medicine not only saved his life, it is said that it brought
back the life of Laxman. When Indrajit shot Laxman and kills with the
Bhramastra , Rama and his forces hit with emotions. Hanuman, after
informed by Jambavan about the Sanjeevani Buti, went to Himalayas in search of
the same. As he couldn’t narrow down the exact herb, he lifted the ‘Gandhamaadana
Or DRONAGIRI PARVAT’,where the Herb is one among others. It saved Laxman as
well as other wounded monkeys is a history. What I can conclude from the above
is that we had known such powerful medicines / cure.
Time
Travel: Here goes my another favourite ‘The Time
travelling’. There are so many concepts about time travelling. There are lot of
stories and movies on ‘Time machine’.’Time Machine’ is a device that can be
used for time travel. Where everything is just being a story, our mythology
holds strong stand that our ancestors did the time travel. It also
explains that the time traveller can face a change in time line where he lived or
change in the time itself where he couldn’t recover. ‘In ancient Hindu
mythology, the Mahabharatha, written around 700 B.C. mentions the story of the
King Revaita, who travels to a different world to meet the creator Brahma. The
King is shocked to learn that many ages have passed when he returns to Earth’. Though
there are many time travelling paradox exist, this one is pretty clear about
time travel without any such paradox.
Planets
and Stars identification : No wonders who have identified the
planets and the stars first. In Indian mythology, planets and Sun ( star ) has
been noted as in the form of gods.(Ex. Sun – Suryan , Saturn – Sani(kali) ,
Mercury – Bhuthan etc ). Also there were several stars and their locations were
noted ( Ex. Revathi,Poosam,Rohini etc ) .Indian astrology is based on this. They
predict the future based on the birth time and the planet , star locaton. They
also give the brief description about the influence of the planet and stars on
humans. I believe the wavelength of such elements really influence us. In short
– Yes, our ancestors knows that all the stars and planets are beyond, they even
predicted the future.
Weapons
: The weapons stated in idhikasha (Puranas ) describes
the power that almost simulates the current missile system powers. Each and
every description of the unique weapons used by the Mythological Heroes are
of powerful and specific in nature. This is just my idea that they would
have had this technology earlier.
Air
Bourne vehicles: The idea of flying vehicles ( Vimana
– In Tamil / Airplane – English ) came in the late 18th Century. But as per the
Puranas, our ancestors have used this in their life time. The predecessors of
the flying Vimanas of Sanskrit epics are the flying chariots which were employed
by various gods in the Vedas. For e.g., the Sun (see Sun chariot) and Indra and
several other Vedic deities are transported by flying wheeled chariots.
The
Rigveda does not mention Vimanas, but verses RV 1.164.47-48 have been taken as evidence
for the idea of "mechanical birds"
In
Swami Dayananda Saraswati's "translation", :
"jumping
into space speedily with a craft using fire and water ... containing twelve
stamghas (pillars), one wheel, three machines, 300 pivots, and 60
instruments."
In
Ramayana it’s said that Ravana kidnaped sita using a flying vehicle. My
Conclusion , Flying machine / Vimana is not new to us.
Science:
As
we know, above all are just samples. We have extracted only a few through our
Puranas. We have strong evidences even after that. The ‘Tholkapiyam’
which is written in the early 8000 B.C.E, states that the sand color of
the moon is black, where we have taken a lot of pain and put rovers in it to
prove the same. Isn’t it something for us? How much we have missed? I don’t
know how to put this strongly. As I know we had everything even if someone took
our things away from us or we lost those ourselves. And we are just no more
than dumb.
And
I am planning to write on the below in brief … May be a New post.
