Purana Saptha Dweepa Five Landmass of Tamil Gondwana Geology

The earlier findings called this land mass as Lemuria.

But the areas of Lemuria could have been in existence only as apart of a greater continent, Gondwana, if one were to take into account the descriptions found in Puranas,Ramayana, Mahabharata and Tamil Classics and the great flood references in Indian Literature.

interestingly the Puranas mention seven islands,Saptha Dweepas and seven Oceans.

They are,

Jambuu Dweepa; Plaksha Dweepa; Saalmalii Dweepa; Kusa Dweepa; Krouncha Dweepa; Saaka Dweepa and Pushkara Dweepa.

Look at the map of the Gondwana.

Earth Is Hollow Science Hinduism ?

But all the Puaranas are uniform in asserting that the Earth, called Jambudweepa is elliptical, egg shaped.

While explaining the evolution of the Universe the Puranas describe the Universe as being a shell within a shell.

They also describe the Seven Lokas, places of existence.

Our Earth is in the middle and we have tree above and two below us.

Those that are below are the dwelling places of Rakshasas and others.

The place called Patala and two more are reported to be extremely hot.
