Ram setu discovered by NASA

NASA has taken images from space which reveal a mysterious ancient bridge in the Palk Strait between India and Sri Lanka. The bridge currently named as Adam´s Bridge is made of chain of shoals, c.18 mi (30 km) long.

NASA has stated on its website that the bridge´s unique curvature and composition by age suggests that it may be man made. The legends as well as Archeological studies reveal that the first signs of human inhabitants in Sri Lanka date back to the primitive age, about 1,750,000 years ago.

This information is a crucial aspect for an insight into the mysterious legend called Ramayana, which was supposed to have taken place in Treta Yuga (more than 1,700,000 years ago).

In this epic, there is a mentioning about a bridge, which was built between Rameshwaram (India) and Srilankan coast under the supervision of a dynamic and invincible figure called Rama who is supposed to be the incarnation of the supreme. The bridge known as 'Ram Setu' was used to transport the monkey army of Rama to Lanka.

This information may not be of much importance to the archeologists who are interested in exploring the origins of man, but it is sure to open the spiritual gates of the people of the world to have come to know an ancient history linked to the Indian mythology. It may also reveal the secret as to how such a long bridge over the Ocean was created in what is supposed to be Primitive times compared to the present.

Atomic explosions

A translation from the Mahabharat :

"...(the weapon was) a single projectile charged with all the power of the Universe.

An incandescent column of smoke and flame As bright as the thousand suns rose in all its splendor...

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.

The 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..."


It would seem that the Mahabharata is describing an atomic war! The description is almost similar to a nuclear explosion and its after-effects. References like this one are not isolated; but battles, using a fantastic array of weapons and aerial vehicles are common in many of the epic Indian books.
