Indian scriptures depict a personality as composed of three elements - nobility, wisdom and might, representing attributes of three Dev brothers Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwar.

Three Distinctive Personality Aspects from Scriptures

Desired Features of a Title

2011-12-31T01:28:00.000+05:30

Now-a-days, I am doing studies of an Indian scripture Mahaabhaarat for writing on my blog with the same title. Just about an hour back, I came across a sloka in the scripture specifying qualities of a title of a work of historical importance. The sloka, I am referring to is like this –

bfrgkliqjk.kkukeqUes’ka fufeZra p ;r~A Hkwra HkO;a Hkfo’;a p f=fo/ka dkylafKre~AA 63AA v/;k; 1

Indian readers of this article shall translate this sloka in a different way for their linguistic misguidance on scriptures. So, I shall go in detail about the translation and the intention of this stanza. Although, this is said for works of history but it is relevant to titles of other books, articles and essays also

In essence, it says that title of a work of history must have in its pronunciation and structure three apparent beauties – bhootam, bhavyam and bhavishyam, which I am explaining in some detail here.

Bhootam (Enlightening) : Bhootam stands for word ‘photos’ of Greek language that means light. Thus, the first attribute of a title is that it must tell the readers what they would get in the detailed contents under the title.
Bhavyam (Soft) : Bhavyam word is equivalent of Latin word ‘favus’ that means honeycomb which is made of soft wax. Therefore, the second recommended attribute of a title is softness in pronunciation and understanding
Bhavishyam (Fruitful) : Bhavishyam word is equivalent to Latin word ‘fabaceous’ that means a plant with pods as its fruits. This attribute is indicative of the fruitfulness of the title. This not only means that the title must be informative but that the title must contain key-words of the contents in it, like pods of a plant.

With these attribute in mind, the authors of the scripture chose ‘Mahaabhaarat’ as title of the scripture containing history of India of those days. This title has all the three attributes listed above. It tells the readers that the scriptures contain information about greater India spread from present Vietnam to Afghanistan. Second ways of its greatness is that it is compilation of all the annual issues of a journal called ‘Bhaarat’ of those days.

The pronunciation of the title ‘Mahaabhaarat’ is pleasing to the tongue of the speaker and ears of the listener. Even the composed word ‘Mahaabhaarat’ is easy to understand. Bharat was a key personality of those times, on whose name the land was named as Bhaarat. Thus, the title has the keyword ‘Bhaarat’ in it.

I know a lot of persons would differ with this translation of the sloka for their biased minds in favor of existing translations. For such persons, I request to translate the sloka by themselves without ignoring the word 'naam' in the sloka.

Number System of Mahaabhaarat Period

2011-12-28T02:45:00.003+05:30

The nastiest foolish propositions in Hindi translations of Mahaabhaarat scripture appear about number of sons/daughters and number of years of certain actions of persons of that period. These are found to be in hundreds and thousands in majority of instances. This makes the history narrated in the scripture a laughing stock. I have thoroughly researched over the matter, and found some revealing facts of those times in the very chapters of the scripture.

With some background information in previous stanzas, the most relevant sloka of the scripture’s first chapter about number system is as follows –

=;fL=a”kRlglzkf.k =;fL=a”kPNrkfu pA =;fL=a”kPp nsokuka l`f’V% la{ksiy{k.kkAA41AA

The essence of this sloka along with the background slokas comes to like this –

At that time, people knew counting up to 3 only and the three digits were

Eva = one, Kaa = two, Triya = three

Apart from these digits, singular words have a degree of ‘e’, words indicating two things have a degree of ‘aa’, and those representing three things have the degree of ‘i’. To count more than three, the scripture suggests counting again and again up to 4 times. For this, word meanings are –

dash = less than sufficient 3, in most of the cases 2
shat = sufficient or 3 the greatest number known then,
sahasra = more than enough, or 4 being more than 3.

Meaning of 'srashti' is the natural count available to humans, and that was 5 as number of fingers in human hand, the most convenient tool for counting, even today. Word 'devanam' stands for double or twice.

Accordingly, translation of the above-cited sloka is – ‘more than three = 4, plus equal to three = 3, and count 3 to create double of natural count (five as fingers of hand) making one laksha of Devas.

Thus, 1 laksha = 4+3+3 = 2x5 = 10

Thus, meanings of words dash, shat and sahasra are two, three and four, respectively, and not ten, hundred and thousand as assumed in Hindi translations of the scripture. This is further proved by the fact the Oum symbol has a number 3 in it and is considered to be the complete thing. Word 'shat' is derived from Latin word 'satis' meaning the whole or saturated. Thus, 'shat' means three. Since 'dash' and 'sahasra' appear before and after 'shat' everywhere in the scriptures, these, respectively, mean two and four.

These meanings get further authenticated by the fact that discovery of zero and numbers with two or more digits was done in 7^th century AD, now known as Arabic numeric system. So, there was no question about people of Mahaabhaarat period having knowledge of numbers in tens, hundreds and thousands.

Scripture Mahaabhaarat and its Language

2011-12-27T08:23:00.000+05:30

Theos (Dev) had a tradition of keeping written records of important incidents and developments and publicize those among people through a journal called ‘Jai’ during their development efforts of the region extending from the present Vietnam to Afghanistan. At that time, there were no designs or plan for making it an Empire or a Kingdom. When many wild races like Yahoodis, Yavans, Asurs, etc. came here with their evil designs of ruling the people and the land, Dev also organized the land into an Empire with Atreypad (now Hyderabad) as its capital. At this time, the journal and the land were named Bhaarat.

Scripture Mahaabhaarat is a huge compilation of matters appearing in the journal Jai and Bhaarat regarding life and works of great Bharat. All these writings are in Devnagari language and script as it was known then. Now that language is termed as Vedic Sanskrut to differentiate that from the modern Sanskrut language. This is well known to scholars that the two languages are quite different from each other. Even then, the miscreants in Indian society with evil intentions of misguiding people present Hindi translations of the scriptures assuming their language to be the modern Sanskrut. As a result, all sorts of nonsense stories and incidents are found in Hindi translations of the scripture which have no relevance to the history of the land.

Vedic Sanskrut has no dictionary available now, but based on the researches of Shri Arvind expressed in his book ‘Ved Rahasya’, and my researches on the language, it is established that the terms used in Vedic Sanskrut scriptures have their roots in Greek and Latin languages and their meanings are also likewise. For most of the terms, these meanings are just reverse of their meanings in modern Sanskrut. Therefore, translations of scriptures done on the basis of modern Sanskrut are just the reverse of their real intentions and in most of the cases are just wild with intentions of misguiding the people of the land. The dirtiest of these evil intentions is to project Krishna as the hero of the scripture through elimination of real heroes – Ram, Lakshman and Bharat, also referred to as Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwar.

Due to difficulty of finding real senses of the original text of the scripture and spending of a huge money on spreading the mistranslations of the scripture, it has become an uphill task for me to come up with realities of those times and make people to believe them. Even then, I am trying my best to present the reality of those times through translations here and there and logical constructions about major incidents of that period.

Ram and Krishna Contemporariness

2011-12-24T15:41:00.000+05:30

Indeed, Indian epic hero Ram was the eldest of the three Theo brothers who were developing the land now called India and who was confronted by Krishna as villain of the Mahaabhaarat conflict on the land. Their real names were Brahma (for Ram), Vishnu (for Lakshman) and Maheshwar (for Bharat). Of course, Ram was killed before the actual armed conflict took place between the two warring factions - Aryans as Kauravas, and Krishna leading the Pandavas along with Yavans, Assyrians, etc. At that time, calling a person with different names depending on his/her role in a particular context was practiced. Even Krishna had so many names.

Presence of Ram during Mahaabhaarat period is evidenced by the scripture Mahaabhaarat itself with mention of Ram's name at many places. To hide this fact from public view, wherever the word Ram appears in Sanskrut text, it has been substituted by Parashuram, Balram, etc in the Hindi translations read by common people. The purpose of eliminating Ram in Mahaabhaarat period was his popularity and strength of character in the people's minds. If he is shown present in that period, nobody would have revered Krishna as an incarnation of God for his lies and misconduct during the conflict.

Another mischief played by the so-called scholars of India having monopoly on religion and education in the country was to call Vishnu Gupta Chanakya as a Brahmin to dissociate him from his reality of being the youngest of the three Theo brothers, originally named Vishnu. To keep himself in hiding, he added 'Gupta' to his name, and added Chanakya to his name as his title. Of course, for hiding himself from his enemies, he robed himself as a Brahmin at that time. After Mahaabhaarat war, he was the only survivor of the three Theo brothers. Later, to take revenge of the defeat in the conflict, he organized revolt against the then Emperor of India - Mahapadmanand - appointed by Krishna and Alexander after winning the war, got him killed to make his son Chandra Gupta Maurya as the Emperor of India. From then began the rule of Gupta dynasty over India, when the country was called as golden bird of the world.

Mahaabhaarat and Bhagwadgeeta, the Scriptures

2009-07-16T08:10:00.008+05:30

An essential and important part of the Mahaabhaarat scripture is another scripture titled 'Bhagwadgeeta' or briefly known as 'Geeta' although it is separately bound and is also a free-standing scripture in its own right. The question is then why it is separately made out.

Misconception about Geeta

Geeta is commonly known to contain preaching of Krishna to Arjuna to push the latter to war in-spite of his reluctance to do so. The preaching is said to be based on a concept 'Nishkaam Karma' or 'Deeds without a desire for results'. This is a totally baseless concept because nobody moves an inch without a desire for a result of his/her actions, or in other words 'without an objective for the action'. Even the so-called preacher of this concept Krishna did nothing without an objective in mind or a desire for results. None has ever does so, nor will ever do so. So this being impracticable, is no knowledge at all. What can not be practised, should not be preached. But India is full of such hypocritic concepts leading to superstitions.

The Speciality of Geeta

Geeta is indeed special as an independent scripture as well as a component of Mahaabhaarat scripture. Its whole text has two meanings - one about the historical struggle, and the other about the foods and their poisoning by the enemies of India who incidently became victors in the struggle.

The enemies had two clear objectives - to grab ruling power over the country and to keep it for ever. For the second objective, they wanted to feed the people with foods having poisonous content to damage their brains and thus eliminate any possibility of a revolt by the people against the rule of the tyrants. Apart from slow poisoning of minds, their other tools were the concepts of religion and God. With minds poisoned, people will never think of relevance of God and religions in human society and will keep on following these without any trace of thinking on these matters.

Since the theos and Aryans got defeated in the war at the hands of Yavans, Assyrians and Dorians, they were not free to write about the food-poisoning plans of the enemies. So, they embedded this knowledge in a chapter of Mahaabhaarat and made it a separate volume and named it 'Bhagwadgeeta'.

This strategy of the enemies had been very effective and successful in two ways - people never came to know that they are slow-poisoned through conventional foods, and they still flollow religions to fight with each other.

The Timeframe

2009-07-01T07:56:00.000+05:30

There has been a lot of controversy regarding timeframe of Mahabharat and various so-called Vedic scholars and historians of India put Mahaabhaarat as old as 5,000 years to 3,000 year old. Such a controversy has led many Western scholars that Mahaabhaarat is totally imaginary because no unanimous solid proofs have been extended by Indian scholars. Reasons for this controversy are -

1. Every one agrees that Krishna gang won the Mahaabhaarat war through deceits and trickeries. Naturally, this gang ruled over India after the war and managed to rewrite history in its own favor. During this misrule, they did not write anything new but mis-translated the original historical records like the Mahaabhaarat. Their first and foremost target was to eliminate Ram from the Krishna era in Indian history.

2. Indian scholars admit that Mahaabhaarat is written in Vedic Sanskrut which is different from the modern Sanskrut. Inspite of this fact, they translate the scripture using modern Sanskrut terminology and word meanings. The fact, as indicated by Sri Aurobindo Ghosh in his book 'Ved Rahasya' and further researched by me, is that the Vidic Sanskrut has terminology of Latin and Greek languages. A large number of words have reverse or different meanings in Vidic and modern Sanskrut languages which has led to misunderstanding of the scriptures.

3. Most of Indians agree that Vamans of India had been misleading the people for a long-long time to serve their vested interests - psychological rule and luxurious lifestyles on other's hard earnings. Inspite of this, they go by preachings of these Vamans.

4. Most of the People including the so-called scholars go by Hindi translations of Mahaabhaarat without authenticating its source. Accordingly, they belive that Ram has no presence in Mahaabhaarat, while the word 'Ram' appears in the original text repeatedly and it has been translated in Hindi as 'Balram, Parasuram, etc. at different places just to eliminate his name from the scripture. No so-called Indian scholar has ever cared for this fraud of the translators of the scripture.

5. To declare Krishna as the hero of Mahaabhaarat, the translators have translated many words as different names of Krishna while they had different meanings. A stark example of this is the word 'Shyam' which was the name of the place now known as Thailand. The so-called Indian scholars baselessly claim that 'Shyam' is a name of Krishna.

6. A dirty trick has been deeply ingrained in Indian psyche that when something is unexplanable, it is considered a divine design This has led to many mistranslations and their acceptance by the people.

7. All the linguistic scholars agree that 'Valmeeki Ramaayan' had been written much after the Mahaabhaarat scripture, while Ram is said to be in existence some thousands of years earlier than Krishna. These two things contradict each other, but still the so-called Indian scholars treat both to be true.

8. All so-called Indian scholars believe in existence of Satyug, Tretayug, Dwaparyug and Kaliyug as different periods of time while these are not the references of time but refer to material qualities which get used in different medicinal prescriptions 'Yoga'. Thus 'yug' means what goes into a 'yoga'. The misconception has been blinding the Indian scholars on realities of Indian history. As a result, world historians never trust Indian history to be true.

My Assertion

Historically, greatest ever wars have been fought by Alexander, also on Indian soil. Mahaabhaarat has references of Helucus (Selucus - king of Iran appointed by Alexander). Another reference to Alexander is available in the form of Gajendra >> Al+Gajenjender>>Alexander, since direct references were not possible to be given due to Theos defeat in the war and rule of the enemies. Further, Alexander was confronted by Porus (of Puru family of Ram, Lakshman and Bharat). Bharat being the mightiest, he confronted Alexander on India's western boarder. Bharat's other name being Mahesh, his offsprings 'Maheshwaries still exist in Rajasthan. There are hundreds of such instances which prove that the Mahaabhaarat period is from around 400 bc to 300 bc, provided Alexander's attack on India taking place in 323 bc is true. Let us start from here, and we will go on verifying this fact again and again in this treatise.

The Genesis

2009-06-20T05:40:00.000+05:30

The greatest ever scripture of India is the story of struggles of Theos, under leadership of Brahma (Ram), Vishnu (Lakshman) and Mahesh (Bharat) for the development of India against resistance from foreign invaders led by Plato and Aristo operating through their creation Krishna on Indian soil in a visiting Yadu family. Thus, it is the story of principally Ram and Krishna confrontations in which the former was defeated and killed. The Krishna group being in power, distorted the scriptures through false translations which the common people read. The original text of the scripture in Vedic Sanskrut is still intact. The story depicted here is based on the original text of the scripture.

As an evidence of falsehood of Hindi translation of Mahaabhaarat is that it does not contain the name of Ram in it but the original Vedic Sanskrut text is full of his references. Since, it is a very voluminous scripture having 220,000 lines of poetry, its full actual translation will take long time, a brief summary of the story is provided here, as the first step towards informing the intellectual world of the real happenings in Eurasia for over 100 years around 2400 years back from now.

The Theos, from the piece of land now known as Thailand (a derivation of Theoland), were very wise and scientific. For developing a larger area, they moved towards plains of India and made it their home and center of activities integrating the whole land spanning from the present Afghanistan to Vietnam into a single nation and named it Dhrutrashtra. Their principal leaders were three brothers - Brahma (Ram), Vishnu (Lakshman) and Mahesh (Bharat).
These Theos had many specializations – Agriculture, Health, Building-construction, Mining of jewels, and the exploitation of ocean wealth. Locally, they were supported by Vishwamitra who become their friend and close associate. They started getting rich through world trade of their produces and became famous world-wide.
Another important development of human civilization took place in Acropolis, a city state in Greece. Acropols were great scientists and the first democrats of the world. They were often attacked by wild races living in nearby places. Once an Acropol girl named Athena sacrificed her life to save her city-state. In her memory, Acropols build a huge campus on the nearby hills with her statue at the center. It became the place for all democratic assemblies, and where Acropol youths used to take oath before the Athena statue to sacrifice their lives for the sake of their state. So, Acropols became unconquerable for the wild races.
Some wild races active at that time in Eurasia were of Dorians (Dravidas), Ionians (Yavans) and Assyrians (Asuras). Dorians from Dorris in the north extended their settlements to south Greece also, while Ionians spread eastwards. Phillip was the king of Dorians at that time.
The forth important development in Eurasisa was in Aryanaam (now Iran-Iraq) where Aryans, originally from the banks of Kura river and also referred to as Kaurava, built their Empire with Babylon as capital. They also had armed confrontations with wild races of Dorians, Ionians and Assyrians and by experience became great warriors.

Thus, the Eurasia has two types of developments – civilized - Theos, Acropols and Aryans; and wild - Dorians, Assyrians and Ionians. Principal difference between the two was of acquiring new inhabitations on increment in their populations. The civilized would go to inhabited places to make new colonies for themselves, while the wild would attack the existing inhabitations to capture the places for themselves. For their livelihood also, the wild races used to attack the civilised races.

This contrast of the two types of races led to confrontations and associations of various races of Eurasia and is known as Mahaabhaarat.
