Mahabharatha & Ramayana

Thursday, November 16, 2006 MAHABHARATHA & RAMAYANA - 2 SORRY MR.YAVESH RANA I HAD TO DO THIS..FOR SOME REASON I WAS NOT ABLE TO POST ANY COMMENTS ON YOUR BLOG EVEN AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS..HENCE THIS SHORT BLOG.. THE PRESENT DAY KANDHAHAR IN AFGHANISTAN WAS IN FACT GANDHARA MENTIONED IN MAHABHARATA..GANDHARI WAS A PRINCESS OF KANDHAHAR..ALSO LAHORE IN PAKISTAN WAS NAMED AFTER LAV & KUSHA ACCORDING TO A LEADING PAKISTANI HISTORIAN/ARCHEOLOGIST.. AS PER A DOCUMENTARY I HAD WATCHED ON THE DISCOVERY CHANNEL SOME TIME AGO IN THE U.S., THE VAST HINDU TEMPLE COMPLEX BUILT AT ANG KOR VAT IN KAMPUCHEA, THE SPHINX AT EGYPT AND A FAMOUS MAYAN PYRAMID IN MEXICO WERE BUILT ABOUT 13,000 YEARS BACK ACCORDING TO SOME ASTRONOMICAL CONFIGURATION . THIS CONFIGURATION ACCORDING SOME EXPERTS HAPPENS ONLY ONCE IN ABOUT 13000 YEARS AND SO THIS VERDICT... IF THAT IS TRUE COULD ANYONE IMAGINE THE REAL AGE OF HINDUISM AS WE KNOW IT ?..IF HINDUISM SPREAD AND ESTABLISHED IN ANCIENT CAMBODIA 13 THOUSAND YEARS AGO SO THEN HOW OLD IS IT IN THIS ANCIENT LAND OF OUR ??... 10:18:07 AM Posted By jagdish keshav Comments (9) Society Comments yaveshrana Thursday, November 16, 2006 10:37:19 AM Sir,I agree with your Observation On Afghanistan. To add to it, LAHORE was founded by LUV-Son of Lord RAMA.Near AMRITSAR in Punjab is a place called RAM TIRATH-this was the place where BALMIKI lived and wrote RAMAYANA and it was here SITA lived in exile with her sons.It was lord RAMA's army was defeated by LUV-KUSH. Kush went on to establish KASUR-now in Pakistan. yaveshrana Thursday, November 16, 2006 10:47:06 AM Sir, I agree VEDIC PHILOSOPHY and TEMPORAL FAITH has been in existence for thousands of years. KAMPUCHEA, SOUTH EAST n MIDDLE EAST have been its bastions. DID you hear of FOUR MAGHIS from INDIA going to JERUSALEM at the birth of CHRIST. I would like to further add that the word "HINDU" as a religious entity came about only in 530 AD. Prior to it from 518 BC onwards it had only geographical identity. This word is of PERSIAN origin--the ancient PERSIANS who spoke AVESTIC ZENDA were cousins of ARYAN fraternity who spoke Sanskrit. yaveshrana Thursday, November 16, 2006 12:02:26 PM Sir,MAYAN people of AMERICAN CONTINENTS, ANCIENT EGYPTIANS n ANCIENT PERSIANS, they all were cousins of OUR ARYANS. Even EUROPE had them. HOWEVER, Aryans were not a race but a lingual fraternity from CAUCASIAN mountains. MAYANS of AMERICA crossed the land bridge over BERING STRAIGHT some 13000 years ago ,durin the ICE AGE. This is American Indians History.Read "INDIAN CULTURES of the AMERICAN South West" bySteven L walker. yaveshrana Thursday, November 16, 2006 12:13:16 PM Sir, again MAHABHARTA talks of a great MAYAN king BRISHVAHU-who came to witness the great war--He declared he would join the losing side. Knowing his prowess and valour LORD KRISHNA tricked him into giving him a pledge--in so doing LORD Krishana asked Brishvahu for his head and hanged it on a pole to allow him, as a promise, to witness the 18 days war. In the end when evryone was self praising himself Lord Brought them to the HEAD of BRISHVAHU. yaveshrana Thursday, November 16, 2006 12:20:53 PM ---When asked by lord Krishna if he were impressed with the valour of the great victorious PANDAVAS, BRISHVAHU,retorted that he hardly saw a great warrior amongst the fighters. Occasionally, he saw some child like warrior called ARJUNA--who seemed ok but not as good as every one boasted of prior to the war. He lamented if only he were allowed to join the war. This is the story from MAHABHARTA. K.Venugopal Thursday, November 16, 2006 8:44:43 PM There is knowledge and there is imagination. Einstein opined that imagination is greater than knowledge. Mahabharatha is obviously a product of the greatest of imaginations. Thus not only does it survive even today, but it enthralls those who pursue it like nothing else quite does. K.Venugopal Thursday, November 16, 2006 8:53:13 PM Imagination, incidentally, need not necessarily mean false seeing. It could be our inner self expressing itself unbound. K.Venugopal Thursday, November 16, 2006 8:54:54 PM The more spiritual we are, the more we can get from Mahabharatha. K.Venugopal Thursday, November 16, 2006 8:55:25 PM Maharshi Aurobindo proved it by creating his epic poem Savitri from a story in Mahabharatha.
