Please comment about the calculation in ’The Holy Science’ . I find the calculation in Sri Yukteswarji’s book to be much more convincing. He also tells us why the length of Kaliyuga is not 432,000 years and is actually 1200 years. He says the miscalculation was caused by a scholar in Kaliyuga. In that case, maybe the age of universe is 15 billion years according to Vedas.

Dear Sriram,

Thank you very much for your appreciation. Yes I am very proud of my roots and for those rationalists who talk about scientific outlook my answer is that, just look back a bit at the history of modern science and you would see that once in every century or so what was thought to be scientific earlier was proved to be unscientific later. Start with aristotle’s universe and till we arrive at bigbang universe and quantum mechanics and string theory today, a lot of old science is unscientific today. Today Quantum mechanics says telepathy is possible and controlling of events remotely is also possible, general relativity says time travel is possible and tunneling through space is possible, and these rational people call the same instances unscientific when quoted from ancient texts.

Modern science has evolved just over the past few centuries and if in such a short span of time if modern science could achieve so much, then a civilization which existed for a few thousand years definitely would have achieved much more. That is what is more rational to me and I feel that to a large extent modern science is a reinvention of the wheel.

And it doesnt just stop there. All great modern scientists ranging from Einstein, Schrodinger, Heisenberg, Carl Sagan, Oppenheimer etc have read the vedic texts and appreciated them. This is not to say that we need a certificate from the west but to point out that our local rationalists cant even think like these scientists, have no updates on the recent developments in modern science and yet claim to be scientific

Gurudev

This is excellent. What Gurudev said is correct. When compared to vedas, the present science has developed only 20% of the vedas. In Vedas the birth and death of universe exists but scientists or people don’t know the exact information about the birth and death of universe. Vedas really exists and it is true

Dear Gurudev,
Your post is excellent. Regardless of whether it is “verifiable” or “retrofitting” as others may consider, it shows the tinge of unabashed pride in one’s identity, which is thoroughly lacking in today’s Indians. I don’t think your credibility will go down because of those persons whose forefathers converted to non-Vedic religions just for pecuniary benefits or for a more colorful idendity. To me, one who is unable to digest his identity but speaks as if he knows the most and as if he is the most broad-minded person in the world, is the worst kind of hippocrite and suffers from serious lack of self-esteem. Ask them to check out http://www.stephen-knapp.com/death_of_the_aryan_invasion_theory.htm.
Regardless of all these QA engineers who are bent on finding faults in your theory, you are one of a kind. You are that rare person who takes pride in his identity and sets out working on his roots no matter what “rationalists” may say.
Once again, kudos to your effect. Some of our prideless Indian brethren may let the Vedic religion go down the drain and adopt the religions that borrowed from us, but the Vedic religion will live forever. That is the true identity of India, the land that was home to great civilizations much before the so-called early civilizations.

Cheers and kudos, once again.

Best Regards,
Sriram

That’s quite interesting. Isn’t Ravana’s lanka the same place to which the bridge from Rameshwaram connects to?
