King Jarasandha of Magadha was killed by Bhima the Pandava hero before Mahabharata war. His son Sahadeva was killed during the war. After the war while Yudhishtira was crowned emperor of Bharat, Sahadeva's son Marjari alias Somadhi was crowned King of Maghadha../1
& he was the first of Barhadradha dynasty of Magadha. All puranas unanimously declare tht 22 kings of this dynasty ruled over Magadha for a period of 1006 years. Thereafter 5 kings of Pradyota dynasty reigned for 138 years.Then 10 kings of Sisunaga dynasty reigned for 360 yrs../2
After that 9 kings of Nanda dynasty reigned for 100 years. In all (1006+138+360+100) = 1604 years passed since the end of Mahabharata war. The end of Nanda dynasty and the coronation of Chandragupta of Maurya dynasty took place in the year 1534 BC (3138-1604=1534)../3
So my dear Indians Alexander the Macedonians didn't come during the reign of Nandas but during the reign of Chandragupta Gupta. Acharya Chanakya was much before his arrival.
@MukulKMishra The four dynasties lasting 1604 years of Magadha emperors and their reigns specified in the PuranNas viz. Barhadradha dynasty of 22 kings lasting 1006 years, Pradyota of 5 kings for 138 years, sisunga of 10 kings for a period of 360 years & Nanda dynasty of 9 kings
..lasting 100 years are all accepted even by the European historians of our country but they ignore basic date of Mahabharata war & identifying Maurya Chandra Gupta of 1534 BC as the Chandra Gupta mentioned by the Greek historians who accompanied Aleander when he invaded..
India in 326 BC pretending to be unaware of the later Chandra Gupta of the Gupta dynasty who was in fact the contemporary of Alexander & assume the coronation of Maurya Chandragupta to be 322 BC and proceeding on the basis of this fictitious and false starting poiint
to determine the date of the various dynasties and kings of Magadha before and after it with reference to it. Thus arises the discrepancy of 1212 years (1534-322).
@TheArvindDhar When MB war ended & Yudhishtira was coronated Yudhishtira Era began. 36 yrs later Kaliyuga commenced & Kali Era started. 26 years later in 3076 BC a new era called Saptarshi Era or Loukikabda Era was inaugurated & has been popular & still current in Kashmir.
These are well known to Hindus. If the hist of our country had been constructed on basis of these eras a true history would have resulted. The inscriptions of Ashoka and the Yona kings mentioned therein has been conclusively proved to be the Yavana Kings of Bharathiya origin
on the frontiers of Bharat in the west in the 15th cent BC & not the Greek Princes of Western Asia of the 3rd century BC as alleged by the Euro orientalists. Incidentally it has been established that Yonas or Yavanas on the one hand & Greeks on the other were two distinct races
and they had migrated to Greece called Ionia earlier at different times (first the Ionians and then the Greeks in 800 BC), settled down there and the modern Greeks are the descendents of the mixed origin of the two races.
Anyway I am tired of writing this again and again.. All this was documented on twitter by @Janamejayan 7-8 years back
