இராமர் 11,000 வருடங்கள் ஆண்டாரா? 🧵

இராமர் பதினோராயிரம் ஆண்டுகள் வாழ்ந்தாரா, ஆண்டாரா என்பது இருக்கட்டும். அவர் வாழ்ந்த காலம் வரையிலும், அவரது தம்பிமார்களான லக்ஷ்மணன், பரதன், சத்ருக்னன் ஆகியோரும் வாழ்ந்தார்களே, அவர்களும் 11,000 ஆண்டுகள் வாழ்ந்தார்களா?

The Alumni Association of the Department of Vaishnavism of Madras University invites you all for my lecture on Exploring the Time-line of Ramayana. The talk is arranged at 6 PM on 27th April (Saturday) to enable overseas viewers to take part. The log-in details are given in the+ Image invitation. I have planned to begin the talk with two reasons on why we need to find out the date of Ramayana. One was the much mis-understood Yuga concept that Rama was born in Treta Yuga, 8 lakh years ago and the other was the tithi-star mismatch of Rama-s birth day. +

Tamil New Year starts when the sun enters the star Ashvini in Mesha rasi. Looking back, it was on a similar day 5,125 years ago, Krishna left his mortal coils. Yes, the New Year day followed by the Tamil people marks the time of Krishna, the Supreme God leaving his physical form+ That moment was marked by sages as the beginning of a new era called Kali Maha Yuga. Such a moment was not a celebration time but a solemn occasion to offer tarpan and do charitable acts. This is reiterated from the records of The Madras Journal of Literature and Science (Vol I)+ Image

"Was Ravana's Lanka present inside Bharat?"
The location of Lanka was not in doubt at all until recently. It was common knowledge that Ravana's Lanka was in Sri Lanka on the other side of the sea which can be reached by the Setu bund that starts from Dhanushkodi. Even Al Biruni + the Persian scholar recorded 1000 years ago that the Setu bund linking Sri Lanka was built by the Vanaras of Rama’s army to reach Lanka. This view changed after the arrival of the British who refused to believe that the Ramayana depicts the true events in the life of Rama and +

The 16th part addresses the question "Did Rama live in Treta Yuga lakhs of years ago?"
At present we are in 5125th year of Kali Maha Yuga. Before Kali Yuga started in 3101 BCE, Dwapara yuga went on for 8,64,000 years. Treta Yuga was running before that. According to many people+ Rama lived in Treta Maha Yuga which occurred 8,69,125 years ago. They must understand that if this is true, we cannot find traces of Rama’s life nor claim a place as his Janmasthan as the entire geography would have changed over time. Insistence on such an old time for Rama will+

How many people know that today is Srirama Navami day? Exalted Sun in Mesha+ waxing Navami. This is birth time combination of Sri Rama celebrated in Srirangam. Only Punarvasu, Rama's birth star is missing. These 3 never occur together making people think Rama's birth is mythical+ Image Since waxing Navami + Punarvasu occur together in Meena rashi, Srirama Navami is observed in Phalguna month. But the important determinant of Time, namely the Sun will be in Meena, not in Mesha as was the case when Rama was born. Why Rama's birth combination can't reappear now?+

on
* Rama as a contemporary of Valmiki
* contemporariness makes Ramayana a reliable and true source of Rama's life

* avataras in human bodies and in other forms.

Sanskrit is part of Tamil. How?There are 4 types of words in Tamil as per Tolkaappiyam.

4. Northern words ( Vada sol / Sanskrit)

Some sections of Srivaishnavas are celebrating Krishna Jayanti today (21st). The rationale has an important revelation on how the moon's exact location cannot be simulated for even 150 years.
Their rationale depends on presence of Rohini at sunrise for Krishna Jayanti which + means the moon has not yet left Rohini till this morning. In reality ( Drik / Thirukkanitham) moon has left Rohini well before sunrise local time in India as a whole. But the Vaakhya tables followed by some show the moon continuing to traverse Rohini till around 8 am +

2 locations & dates for Krishna’s Dwaraka that don’t match with primary evidence of Harivamsha & Mahabharata.
1. Dr. S.R. Rao’s marine expedition at Bet Dwaraka (Kutch) dated c.1500 BCE
2. Mr. Badrinaryan’s NIOT expedition at Cambay of inundations between 7500 BP and 2800 BP + Why don’t they match?
1. Both Kutch and Cambay excavations show continuous occupation, but Krishna’s Dwaraka didn’t exist for even 100 years.
2. There was no harbour in Krishna’s Dwaraka which was only a rectangular walled city offering physical protection to the inmates. +

3 major migrations happened within India after Mahabharata war, explained in my 2 books.
1. After the sinking of Krishna's Dwaraka in 3101 BCE, the Satyaki clan spread to Saraswati region (Mb book)

(Thread) Not only Valmiki & Vyasa, even common man until our edu was replaced, had known that months don't shift with stars beyond 3.6ky. This limited the shift to less than a month with no noticeable change in seasons. There are records for this, not for 24k precession circle+ 24k precession is hypothetical, not supported by any evidence but framed on an assumption that the earth’s axis precesses in a circle of 24ky. But evidence is mounting against this assumption. (1) The calculation of rate of precession is found not applicable to longer time frame+ Image

Vinayaka worship can be traced to the time of Muruga when people admired the way his royal elephant "PiNi Mukham" was an inseparable companion, helping him in everything including winning the love of Valli.

+ The elephant connection to Muruga is found in Sangam texts of women visiting Muruga’s temple doing ‘puja’ to the elephant of the temple treating it as the elephant of Muruga. Only women did this puja by smearing kumkum on the head, face and trunk of the elephant
