  • Nazca Lines Peru Nama Sivaya in Tamil Brahmi Script?

    I have written on the Nazca Lines of Peru.

    These are Geoglpyhs,lines etched in Rocks.

    The Nazca Lines, a series of fantastical geoglyphs etched into the desert in Peru, may have been used by two separate groups of people to make pilgrimage to an ancient temple, new research suggests.

    But the purpose of the desert etchings may have changed over time……

    The earliest Nazca Lines were created so pilgrims could view the markings along a ritual processional route, the researchers said. But later people may have smashed ceramic pots on the ground where the lines intersected as part of an ancient religious rite, according to a study presented here on April 16 at the 80th annual meeting of the Society for American Archeology.’

    These lines in Peru are in groups and each group seems to represent something.

    Mysterious carvings

    ……. locked between the Andes Mountains and the coast, more than a thousand geoglyphs dot the landscape. People from an ancient civilization created the shapes between 200 B.C. and A.D. 600, by removing the reddish rocks on the surface of the desert, revealing the white-hued earth beneath.

    The Strange Shapes include animals such as camelids, dogs and monkeys, as well as fanciful supernatural beings, scenes of decapitation and trophy heads, and geometric designs such as trapezoids, lines and triangles. Though the mysterious shapes gained widespread attention in the 1920s, when plane passengers saw them from above, people who lived there likely saw them even earlier while walking the hilltops in the Nazca plateau.

    Archaeologists have long puzzled over the purpose of the Nazca Lines. Some researchers have argued the Nazca Lines form a labyrinth.Others have said the lines and figures matched up with the constellations in the sky or with subterranean water routes. And still others have said the Nazca Lines were part of an ancient pilgrimage route.

    Two cultures?

    In recent years, researchers at Yamagata University in Japan have uncovered 100 geoglpyhs, as well as shards of broken ceramics at the intersection points of some of the lines.

    To understand exactly how all of these images fit together, Masato Sakai of Yamagata University and his colleagues analyzed the location, style and method of construction for some of these newfound geoglpyhs. Sakai found that about four different styles of geoglyphs tended to be clustered together along different routes leading to a vast Pre -Incan complex in Peru known as Cahuachi. Archaeological evidence, such as several temples and pyramids, as well as a trove of severed heads, suggests that Cahuachi was once a religious center where pilgrims brought offerings. ‘

    There are also interpretations that this could be Alien Message or an Alien Mark.

    However,let us look at some more information as found by referring to Ancient texts in Sanskrit and Tamil.( I am unable to check other languages as I am not familiar with them. Scholars in the other languages may contribute with source)

    In the Sundara Kanda of Ramayana by Valmiki,Sugriva instructs his army to search for the kidnapped Sita in the area ‘Where Shiva’s Trishul Mark is Found’

    The hero of this Epic is Lord Rama and his date according to Puranas and Ramayana is more than a Million years ago. But Rama’s date is assigned at 5114 BC,based on Astronomical details found in the Ramayana. This seeming contradiction, I have explained in Rama’s death precedes Krisha’s by 200 years.

    During the Great Flood mentioned in Sanskrit and Tamil Sangam Classics,the forefather and the First Man Satyavrata Manu’s descendent migrated from the south of Vindhyas to North of India and founded the Ikshvahu Dynasty.

    At the same time, Shiva and his eldest son Ganesha moved westwards towards Middle east Africa,America before reaching Arctic where the Rig Veda was composed.

    Subrahmanya,called Murugan in Tamil, moved eastward towards Australia and the evidence of Murugan is found in the Polynesian territories.

    And Sage Agastya is found in New Zealand.

    Shiva and Ganesha presence is found in the western regions away from India,in almost all countries.

    Shiva worship in the south of India seems to have preceded His worship in the Vedas.

    For all the refernces in this article,please check my articles on each of them.

    The Akkadian culture which was the forerunner of Sumerians had their links to the Tamils.

    Rama,His father Dasaratha,his brother Bharatha are found in the Sumerian Kings List.

    Rama entered into a Treaty with Horus.

    The presence of Sanatana Dharma is also found in Americas.

    Chihuahua district in Mexico derives its name from the root Shivava, named after a native American;Tamaulipas-Tamralipta;Nayarit-Nairitti..

    There is naturallly formed Vishnu Temple in Colorado US.

    There is also a Quadrilateral Shiva Temple.

    California was called Kapila Aranya,the forest of Sage Kapila who founded the Sankhya System of philosophy

    Nearby is the Ash Island,where Kapila turned the sons od Sagara into ashes.

    Then we have Hanuman’s temple in Honduras.

    And His son Makratdwaja’s in Mexico.

    There is still more.

    Such being the case,I thought,why can’t the mark called as Nazca Lines be of Indian origin?

    Can it be interpreted by the ancient languages/scripts of India?

    Here I was struck with four issues.

    1. The images of Nazca Lines is Group.

    2.The meaning will change if the angle in which it is seen.

    3.Multiple lines have to be segregated so that they form out to provide meaning.

    4.I have to find a suitable script and key to decipher the Nazca Lines.

    I have tried out with  Sanskrit Brahmi and Tamil Brahmi.

    I have reproduced the Nazca Lines and the Tamil Brahmi script as Images.

  • Shiva Linga In Machu Picchu Nazca Lines Peru

    Machu Pichu, Nazca Lines, Peru are interesting archaeological sites.

    They reveal more about ancient civilizations and lost continents like Lemuria and Atlantis.

    Lets us consider some facts.

    Ancestors of the Incas were Tamils.

    The Incas followed Sanatana Dharma and celebrated The Makara Sankaranthi, the Tamil New Year in the Tamil Style.

    The Machu Picchu remains indicate Sun worship as it was in ancient India.

    Please read my articles on these subjects.

    The remains of the Machu Picchu reveals the Tamil connection further.

    The name Pachchu Cutec who is believed to have built the Machu Pichu sounds like a Tamil word,

    “Machu Picchu was built around 1450, at the height of the Inca Empire. Its construction appears to date to the period of the two great Incas, Pachacutec Inca Yupanqui (1438–71) and Tupac Inca Yupanqui (1472–93). It was abandoned just over 100 years later, in 1572,”

    (wiki)

    The word means ‘Son of Green’, Tamil Pachai(green), Cutti( term of endearment for son)

    And there is Inti Watana Ritual Stone , which points at the Sun during Winter Solstice(Dakshinayana)

    Look at Inti Watana Image below.

    One may recall the Shiva shrines/Shiva Lingas aligned to Winter Solstice in India

     

    Inti Watana is believed to have been designed as an astronomic clock or calendar by the Incas(wiki)

    The Margabandhu, Temple Tamil Nadu has a stone that is is used as an Astronomic clock.

    Now watch this video clip.

    “This Giant rock is called the “Face of life and death” by the locals. From this angle, you can see a normal human like profile of a face. Notice the deliberate construction of a crown on top of the head which shows us that this is a carved face. Even today, the local Quechua people who are the descendants of Incas do not walk on this figure’s head, because they don’t want to disrespect this symbol. Tourists are completely unaware of this, and stand on top of this figure. Also, the eyes have been carved on this figure to confirm that it was created on purpose. This side is called the “Face of Life” because of a dimple carved on the cheek to show a happy face.

    If we walk over to the other side of Machu Picchu and take a look at the same rock, you can see a sad, dying face. All over Machu Picchu, you can see the concept of duality and this fantastic example of how you can see both life and death in the same rock. Again, this is not a natural formation, but whoever created this face, carved it carefully to imply a deep philosophy of life and death.

    Historians and archaeologists think that the Incas built Machu Picchu and they must have created these carvings as well. But the problem is that according to historians, the Incas did not even have wheels and did not even know how to write. Ancient alien theorists fiercely oppose this, because it seems impossible to construct such a marvelous site without advanced technology.

    The second structure that resembles a crude face is the giant mountain range of Machu Picchu itself. Unlike the previous one this seems like a completely natural formation. In the last few years you can see a lot of people claiming that it does look like a sleeping human face. You can see a rough face of a man with facial features of the nose, mouth and the forehead.

    If this is a face of a sleeping man and if Machu Picchu shows duality, there must be a sleeping woman as well, right? Take a look at this rock, roughly carved to look like a sleeping woman. You can see her face and her breast that clearly shows the side profile of a woman. My tour guide told me that samples collected on this rock showed traces of gold etched on it. It is possible that centuries ago, this stone was completely covered in gold, which was a sacred metal for the Incas and a precious metal for everyone else. If it was totally covered with Gold, it would glitter in the sun light which would be an aerial signal to the quote one quote “Gods” above.

    Now, let’s move on to decoding some of the more intricate figures that can be found in Machu Picchu. The locals believe that Machu Picchu was constructed as a collection of symbols. And we are not talking about a few dozen symbols; we are talking about hundreds, or even thousands of symbols to be understood by higher intelligence. According to the locals, each stone was placed carefully to mean something, and to be understood by the Gods.

    In one of the walls, you can see that the rocks are arranged in the shape of a Llama. You can see its head, the neck, and the whole body. Traces of colors were found on these walls, which indicate that these figures could have been painted with bright colors centuries ago. Is this just a coincidence or was it carefully constructed to look like a Llama? Many small statues of Llamas covered in animal fat were unearthed in Machu Picchu. This is intriguing because the Nazca people of Peru, also created a Llama, which is only visible from the air. According to historians, the Inca people and the Nazca people had no connection or communication whatsoever. Are these just coincidences or do they mean something really important?
    Here is another popular figure carved in the Nazca desert called the “Andean Condor”. The specialty of this bird is its wings, with a huge wingspan of more than 10 feet. In Machu Picchu, we find an Andean Condor sculpted on the floor. You can see its head and the body but where are the wings? Why would a bird with a remarkable wingspan of over 10 feet, be carved without the wings? If you take a few steps back and look at the bigger picture, you can find the gigantic wings of the Andean condor in the background. These two giant rocks have been carved to be shaped like wings. Notice that the rock on the left is not even touching the ground, which symbolizes the bird while flying in the air!”

    The Man , Woman combination, the head of the rock formation with what looks like water flowing out,

    Does it not remind you of Shiva ?

    And the Lama image in the above video.

    Watch this video of Sun Temple Konark, Odisha, India.

    Don’t you see these in the temple gates as guardians?

    Now to the Nazca Lines of Peru.

    ‘Maya is a generic name for the people of sakadweepa.or Atlantis.In other words ,Maya,the yavanasilpi or architect of olden times was also a Magha Brahmin and who knew solar and lunar calendars and vaasthuvidya.

    He was the one who built Indraprastha during Yudhishtira’s time and another of his race with the same generic name was the father of Mandodari .(Ravana’s wife).

    He was an original inhabitant of sakadweepa(Atlantis)and he had come to live in present Rajasthan during Ravana’s time.

    The word Asura and Azorus ,Atlantis and Atlantic ocean and Athalam of the scriptures are from the same root .

    According to Sounakahora ,Maya was a astronomer of excellence and he taught astronomy to the great Rajarshi Viswamithra.

    Ramani’s blog

    and

    ‘As explained in these articles, there seems to have been Four major civilizations then.

    Rama’s Empire,

    Atlantis Empire,

    Uighur Empire and

    Lemurian Empire.

    Of these Uighur was not very advanced and Lemuria which had been on the wane was trying to recoup……

     

    They were suppressed by the Atlantis people.

    In the Atlantis, Osiris’ son Horus entered into an alliance with Rama to defeat Seth who was trying to become independent in the Sumerian valley….

     

    The Atlantis army met with Rama’s Army in Rishi City, now in Pakistam.

    Now read this.

    Vallmiki ends the Ramayana with Rama’s Coronation, Pattabhisheka and therfore we have no information on Ram’s conquest of the world, after his victory over Ravana.’

    And Shiva and His son Ganesha moved westwards from India during an ancient tsunami.
