Existence of Interstellar Travel and other space and aviation technologies during Vedic times

8/31/2020

0 Comments

 
There were various types of Vimanas during Vedic times.

Some of the most common types of Vimanas were:
  • Aerial Chariots intended for individuals or smaller groups, mainly for pleasure travel
  • Flying Palaces and Flying cities, which were obviously much larger in scale and operation
  • Vimanas intended for interstellar travel
Aerial Chariots in Vedic Times

Aerial chariots were referred to as ‘Ratha’ in the time of the Rig Veda and later the terminology changed to ‘Vimana’. As per texts in the Rig Veda and Yajur Veda, these ‘rathas’ had a triangular top with a broader, squarish base.

​Also there is mention that the inside area was 9ftx9ft =81 sq.ft, which can comfortably accommodate 7-8 people.  

The Pushpaka Vimana is one of the most important examples of this kind of Vimana technology.

Flying Palaces and Cities in Vedic Times

The Samarangana Sutradhara, an important Vedic text containing details of vimana technology states clearly that the planes were designed so as to imitate palaces on ground.

The temple design seal of a 1st century BCE temple at Bodh Gaya discovered recently reveals that its shape had a rectangular base with a tapering top reminiscent of a modern day helicopter shape. But more importantly, it adds weight to the Samarangana reference that perhaps it may have served as an inspiration for building an aerial palace in the days gone by.

An ancient Vedic epic – Arthashaastra-by Sage Kautilya refers to a flying city called Saubha, which belonged to King Harishchandra. In fact there is reference to “Saubhikas’ amongst the various tradespeople of the time, pointing towards people who were trained to operate the Saubha.


Vimanas for Interstellar Travel

Such Vimanas were called ‘Nakshatramandalas’ (nakshatra meaning star) and possibly there existed aircrafts capable of flying across galaxies. The strongest evidence for this comes from the discovery of some Sanskrit documents in Tibet by China. On analyzing the material, it was found to contain detailed instructions for building interstellar spaceships.

​Apparently, these interstellar aircrafts were powered by “laghima’, the power of the ego, which is responsible for the levitation exhibited by Hindu yogis.

It does appear that a wide range of Vimana technology was present in Vedic times. It is also interesting to note in recent times and in the past, eye witness descriptions of UFO sightings are chillingly similar to the ancient Vimana designs.

A brief explanation of Vedic Missile Technologies

Did Nuclear Warfare exist during Vedic Times?
​Vedic texts describe in great detail the effects produced by certain weapons like the Brahmastra and Indra’s thunderbolt, which included intense heat, columns of smoke hampering visibility, blinding brightness and the ill health effects on victims. These details bear a chilling similarity to the eyewitness accounts of the nuclear bombings.

The Vedic period was an age characterized by high levels of individual intellectual capabilities in areas of mathematics, astronomy etc. So perhaps, the people then had already unlocked the mysteries of the atom.
There are many Vedic Texts which give references indicating Nuclear Weapons

The Mahabharata describes the effects of a particular weapon used in warfare thus:
  • "When the shell hit the ground, the darkness covered the sky, twisters and storms leveled the towns. A horrible blast burnt thousands of animals and people to ashes.”
  • “Whole armies collapsed like trees in a forest burnt where they stood as in a raging fire”.

Another Ancient text the Drona Bhisheka refers to a war fought between good and evil forces where “All cities were consumed in an all encompassing inferno”.

These references point out the fact that these effects may have been caused by the intense heat released in a nuclear explosion.

The Mausala Parva, a Vedic text describing the aftermath of the Mahabharata war says “36 Years after the great Mahabharata war – strong and dry winds carrying gravels (rock fragments) still blew from every side. The horizon was always covered with some kind of fog in all directions. Blazing pieces of coal fell from sky to earth. The disc of the Sun was always covered with dust”.

Such a massive and long term impact on nature is usually the result of nuclear warfare.

Two decades after the Mahabharata, a war was fought that led to the destruction of the Yadava Clan. The Mausla Parva describing the effects of this war says “Asses were born of kine, and elephants of mules. Cats were born of bitches and mouse of the mongoose”

This may be a reference to widespread genetic mutation that radiation exposure causes in the course of nuclear warfare.

In this way, we find several references in many different ancient  Vedic texts about the existence of nuclear technologies during the Vedic times!!

Ancient Indian Vimanas – Was there a Comprehensive Range?

8/25/2020

It is now well established that flying machines or vimanas existed in ancient India. Vedic texts like the Rig Veda and epics like the Mahabharata and Ramayana have numerous references to ‘flying machines’, which cannot be overlooked.

​Further the book ‘Vaimanika Shaastra’ written by Sage Bharadwaj contains amazingly accurate and precise details of construction, operation and maintenance of Vimanas.
Types of Vimanas

Some of the most commonly referred to Vimanas in the Vedic texts include-

• Aerial Chariots intended for individuals or smaller groups, mainly for pleasure travel
• Flying Palaces and Flying cities, which were obviously much larger in scale and operation
• Vimanas equipped with features that made them particularly useful in war and
• Vimanas intended for interstellar travel

In this manner, as we research into ancient texts and check out various evidence, we find that there were many different types of vimanas-flying objects that were present during Vedic times.

Proof that Airplane (Aeroplane) and Aviation technology existed during Vedic times

8/23/2020

It was a major breakthrough for mankind when the Wright brothers made their first successful flight in 1903. Or so we thought. There is now evidence that technology was utilized to build flying machines in Vedic times. 

​Several ancient Sanskrit documents credit sages Agastya and Bharadwaja with establishing the principles for aircraft construction. In fact, there are references to ancient ‘flying machines’ that are very similar to modern day hot air balloons (called a “Chchatra”) and parachutes (called a “Vimandvigunam”). 
​The ‘Vaimanika Shastra’ written by sage Bharadwaja not only elaborates technology for aircraft building, but also includes technology for steering the aircraft, protection from storm and lightning and incorporates elaborate diagrams. The book was discovered in an Indian temple and has since been translated into English from the original Sanskrit.

The Vaimanika Shastra further reveals that the aeroplanes took off vertically, indicating that some form of anti-gravity technology was utilized in their construction. There is also reference to a liquid propulsion agent, most likely gasoline that propelled the aeroplane through air.

The book also mentions the use of a technology that made the aeroplanes invisible to enemy during aerial warfare. On reconstructing the particular alloy referred to in the text, scientists found that it absorbs as much as 78% light, making it ‘invisible’  for all practical purposes.

In this manner, as we research ancient texts, there are several  authentic mentions and clear proof of existence of airplane (aeroplane) and aviation technology  during the Vedic times.

    Vedic Culture, which   is the culture of the original Himalayan Masters,    is one of the most advanced ancient civilizations.  It is a tradition which has given mankind several treasures such Yoga, Meditation, Conscious-Living and Vedic Sciences such as Ayurveda, Vedic Physics & Vedic Mathematics.

    It was always a scientific culture that understood the very mechanics and workings of this Universe. Their deities, their gods and goddesses were all a way of expressing and explaining these energies and their inter-working. Modern Quantum Mechanics is just starting to understand string theory, dark matter etc. which have all been fundamental to the Vedic understanding. Because of this, they developed ways and methods which allowed one to best tap into life-energy itself.

    Vedic Culture, as it was practiced by the Himalayan Masters, was always a "way of life" and not a religion.

    Their basic view was that, there is only ONE Supreme God-head (God as our creator) and each one of us can find our path to it- experience union with that divinity (Yoga) in their own way.

    Because of this, anyone with any religious affiliations and beliefs can still benefit from their knowledgeable ways of Vedic Wisdom.

    Our attempt here is to present this ancient wisdom in a modern light, so our readers can interpret the true, essential meaning more easily and then extrapolate it to their own specific scenarios and enhance the quality of their life and being-ness.
