Why our Ancient Rishis were the Greatest Scientists :
What exactly is Science?
Science is something that tries to discover the different Laws of Nature.
The Ancient Rishis who were the custodians of our Culture were the greatest Scientists ever known.
There was nothing that they didn’t know about Nature ;
She did not hide any of her abstruse wisdom from them.
The Rishis had extraordinary Powers or Siddhis.
They could control the Elements,Travel with ease in the Astral Worlds, Cover vast distances rapidly through the sky
without any Aircraft, Catch Sound & Light Waves in their Minds and Discern what was happening miles away.
Their Look could penetrate Rocks and Drill holes in Metals, & they could have anything they wanted just by formulating a wish in their minds.
No other Civilization except the present one has reached such Heights of Knowledge as they had Achieved.
Their knowledge of Science in many fields, like Mathematics, Geometry, Astrology, Astronomy, & Physics, was immense.
Without the use of modern instrumentation, they were
able to discover more things about this universe than what was discovered up to the 19th century by Western Scientists.
They knew that ;
The Earth went around the Sun,
That we are living in an Expanding Universe, &
That Matter is only Energy in Motion.
They calculated the distance of Stars & Planets and could Foretell the coming of the different Comets.
They even wrote Predictions about the lives of people who would come after them.
They could Conjure up Cities & Palaces and Wondrous meals & Aerial Vehicles. They
were to whom the Mightiest of Emperors bowed down & Sought Counsel from.
All of these & so many more Powers at their Finger Tip and they did not choose those things for their own Lifestyle.
No other Civilisation nor Country can boast of such Ancestry.
We should be so much Proud!

Circa 1296(Feb month), Alaudding Khalji was the first Muslim ruler to unleash the terror southward & it opened the floodgates of Untold Devastation, Destruction & Desecration of Sanatana Dharma in South India by the muslim invaders.

The situation, however, deteriorated in the 17th-18th centuries, and the Dikshitars (temple priests),
Hanuman states very clearly that his greatness was due to his constant effort and not due to his inborn character, that of an ordinary monkey.
Brahmajñāna ~ ब्रह्मज्ञान is possible for all.
Mokṣā ~ मोक्ष, “liberation,” is everybody’s birthright.
In his case, Hanuman declares that his entire spiritual development was attained by single-pointed devotion to god.
He who constantly thinks of the Supreme becomes Supreme.
is to be summarily rejected like a blade of grass."
If this is the basic premise governing Sanātana Dhārma, is there a question or doubt as to whether it is rational, scientific, & logical?
In fact, there are 3 tests for any dharmic statement or revelation.
~ It should be enunciated in the ageless scriptures (श्रुति~Śrutī);
~ It must have the support of reason (युक्ति ~ Yukti); &
~ It should also be experienced by oneself (अनुभाव ~ Ānubhāva).
Only when these three together confirm a proposition can it be Accepted & Followed.

But Sadly now it looks like Tulsi Gabbard is being forced to quit political life.
