  • Ramayana.Ravana Real, Existed Study

    I have been posting on the historicity of Lord Rama and am planning to write on the Birth date od Lord Krishna.

    While I was ‘Story telling’ my grand son, 4, he asked me whether Ravana was real or a story.

    That struck me.

    Ramayana, scenes from the Hindu Epic.,
    Scenes from The Ramayana

    I have been going after facts on Lord Rama, the route taken by Him, His Birth Date and never for a moment it struck me to go after Ravana.

    If Lord Rama is real, so should Ravana Be, as the whole Ramayana minus Ravana is Zero!

    I did some checks  and this Post.

    A Study by Tharaka Devinda Gunasekera, a Sri Lankan( what better source could there be!) attempts to prove Ravana was real.

    The author has sifted Facts from Myths and has done a good interpretation.

    His proof consists of Three  facts.

    1.The Runways built by Ravana are still intact.

    2. Ravana’s Pushpaka Vimana,Fore runner of modern Airplane.

    .3.The Sunken city of Ravana.

    4.The place where Sita was incarcerated.

    The Airstrips ,Runways of Ravana.

    “The first clue that comes to us is from three places still intact. Those are Maha-eliya
    (Known today as Horton’s plains named after the person who shot down all the deer in the
    park, to the last one), Ussangoda in Hambanthota and “Wariyapola”.

    . What do these places 7
    have in common? For starters, all these places are flat lands with wide open areas, ideal for
    landing an airborne craft.
    The place name “Wariyapola” breaks down in to “Air-Ship-Port” (Waa=air). Couple
    together this, with the fact that almost all the place names in this country has a history that
    made them, we have our first clue, the runway lines of the king’s airplane, or was it fleet?

    The palce where Rvana had his Airstrips. Ussanagoda
    Ussangoda, Sri Lanka

    Ussangoda also seems a good spot for landing an aircraft. But the land is somewhat tilted
    in some areas. The best craft to land there would be a helicopter. But we also know that it is
    possible to land airplanes in a short distance, which is done in a fighter carrier. There are
    certain models that can land vertically too. Thus, the uneven ground may not be a problem. It
    might have been completely flat by the time of Ravana, so the problems might not have been
    there at all. The fact that, the Ussangoda rock has no high rising trees is intriguing. The soil
    there does not support high growing trees, not even coconuts that grow normally in that area
    are there on the rock formation.

    2.The Plane,Pushpaka Vimana.

    Findings from a pyramid in Egypt revealed four airplane structures shown in terracotta
    slabs. Among them are the two crafts that show resemblance to the current day helicopter and
    the passenger airplane. A third is said to show a structure similar to a faster craft may be used
    in battle. There is however references that the queen “Devayani”, mother of Tharaka, 8
    Surapadma and Sinha-mukha, showed her sons how the bombing is done. Where it is said that
    rock turned into marble. Only at very high temperatures will this happen and either a nuclear or
    a plasma grade weapon is necessary to do such damage.
    (Suriya Gunasekera, 2006)
    There are findings of airplane like structures all round the world. The first is from Egypt,
    which resembles a bird. Although archaeologists categorised it as a bird at first, people now
    have their doubts about it. The wings that are flat as well as a tail which is vertical rather than
    horizontal are the facts that tell us it’s actually a sculpture of an airplane.

    Different types of Airplanes in used in ancient India
    Vimanaas-Planes In ancient India

    The writings on the sculpture said it was the “Gift of Amon”. “Amon” is the god of wind in
    Egyptian mythology. As I suspect, this is not a gift from Amon, but a gift to Amon. From whom, I
    do not know, but it might as well be from Ravana.
    A similar finding was done in Central America and coastlines of South America. This time
    it was made out of gold rather than wood. The sculpture shows patterns of wind upon it very
    clearly.

    The sunken City of Ravana.

    In the South-East of Sri Lanka there are two lighthouses erected on two small islands,
    known even today as “Maha Ravana Kotte” (Great Basses) and “Kuda Ravana Kotte”. The word
    “Kotte” may well be fort. There is evidence in the nearby vicinity that depicts the ruins of a fort
    or a citadel. However the rocks that are visible only in the low tide can only be examined with
    great care as the sea is very rough in the area.
    The “Lankapura” that is in the Ramayana cannot be located anywhere in the island.
    Therefore the only clues that come from are from the sea. The findings from a Babylonian
    terracotta slab revealed that the city Babylon was constructed according to the instructions
    given by the “Lion People” that came from the sky. This is acceptable, since we know that the
    king Sinha-Mukha (Lion Mouth?) built the city, and he may have led a team of engineers to help

    build Babylon according to his city. Comparing the records of Plato (4th Cent. BC) and the
    description that comes from Ramayana’s Hanuman, Plato’s Atlantis and Hanuman’s Lankapura
    seem to be the same.
    Then where is this city of gold? To find the city now, we would have to dive deep in the
    eastern seas of Sri Lanka. Legend has it after the death of Ravana; the city sank into the sea.
    Clues can be found in the areas given above, where the lighthouses were and the areas of
    Trincomalee. The lover’s leap is a ridge of rock that is no natural formation, a good indicator
    that the land that was once connected to it, sank in to the sea.
    People still have no correct answer to whether the city was actually there or how it sank,
    but recent history tells us how it sank. The tidal wave that hit the eastern shore tore apart most
    of the buildings and took many lives. We could place our doubt in a larger scale tidal wave,
    bringing the city down. Since there are no ground structures even islands left in the eastern
    shoreline, we can assume that most of the city was artificially built ground

    Other Facts.

    There are several other scattered facts that support the existence of Ravana. One of them
    is a holding cell that is said to have held “Seetha” while Ravana was carrying her to his kingdom.
    This is found in the Devinuwara area. This conflict with the stories that tell Seetha was held in
    the hill country where “Seetha-eliya” is. But as we know, the kingdom that we know as
    “Lankapura”, was in the Eastern shores of the island. The holding cell that we talk about,
    support that fact. It was supposed to have made for Seetha to rest on the journey to the
    capital.

    Cell where Sita was imprisoned,Sri Lanka
    Side view of the Place where Sita was imprisoned,Lankapura.

    We took into account various facts and sources that prove or disprove the existence of
    Ravana. From all these facts that have been laid out, my opinion is that Ravana did exist. The
    ambiguities that arise saying otherwise are there because of the lack of solid facts. But, like all
    other great findings, they will come some day, slowly though, to prove that there was actually a
    great kingdom, here in our country.
    History is the very foundation of a civilization. Our history is golden compared to other
    countries’ past records. But some have ignored it or covered it with a veil of dust and mud. It is
    time for us to clean that dust and rediscover the gold that lies within our legends, the golden
    part that lies within us ourselves. It is time to rewrite our history from scratch, to rewrite the
    true version; not something that was planted there purposely.
    Finally, I tell you, Ravana is solid fact. There is too mush evidence to believe he was only a
    myth. A real king that walked in our country, leading it to be the world’s number one.

  • Lord Rama’s Dynasty Ancestors, Descendants List

    I furnish the details of Lord  Rama‘s’ Dynasty, Ancestors and Descendants.

     Sri Rama Parrabhishekam.
    Lord Rama’s Pattabhishekam.

    Manu had many sons of whom 50 perished quarelling with one another. Ten sons survived, one of whom was Ikshvaku. The Brahma Purana (Chapters 7 and 8) provides details on Manu’s 10 sons and their descendents as follows [4]

    • Ikshvaku
    • Nriga
    • Dhrishta – also called Rishta. He ruled over Dharstika. His son was first a Kshatriya and then became a Vaishya. Subsequently he became a Brahmin.
    • Saryati – he had twins, Anarta and Sukanya. Anarta’s country was Anarta with Kushasthali as its capital. Anarta’s son was Raiva and grandson was Raivata. Raivata’s son was Kakudmin. Kakudmin returned after a few Yugas to Kushasthali and found it changed to Dvaravati, ruled by Yadavas. He gave his daughter Revati (aka Samudra) in marriage to Baladeva and retired to asceticm.
    • Narishyanta – Narishyanta had a son named Yama and grandson named Dhandhara. Narishyanta’s sons were the Sakas.
    • Pransu – Pramsu son was Prajapati.
    • Nabhaga – had a son named Ambirasa who was first a Kshatriya and then became a Vaishya. Subsequently he became a Brahmin.
    • Nideshta
    • Karusha – his sons Karushas became Kshatriyas.
    • Prishadhra – he hurt his teacher’s cow and hence was cursed to become a Shudra.

    Manu also had a child named Ila (aka Sudyumna) who gave birth to Pururavas out of wedlock after intercourse with Budha, the son of SomaPururavas was the first king of Aila dynasty or the Somavamsha.

    Rama was born in Ikshvaku’s line. The lineage from Ikshvaku to Rama is as follows:

    • Ikshwaku – Manu’s successor was the founder of the Ikshvaku dynasty. Ikshwaku fathered 101 children of whom most illustrious were Vikukshi, Nimi and Danda. Ikshvaku’s 50 children were protector of northern countries while 48 were prince of southern countries. Nimi was ruler of Mithila region and started the kingdom of Janaka. After death of Ikshwaku, his son Sasada succeeded him. According to Jain sources, Ikshvaku was Rishab Deva.[5]
    • Sasada – Named Vikuksi at birth, he was called Sasada after eating Hare-meat meant for a rite himself (Sasada means Hare-eater). Though abandoned by Ikshvaku, he became the successor due to Vasistha. Vikuksi had 500 sons who guarded northern regions led by Sakuni and 58 sons who guarded southern regions led by Visati. The Brahma Purana says Sasada’s son was Kakutstha and Kakutstha’s son was Anenas. However, the Vishnu Purana says Sasada’s son was Puranjaya (Paranjaya in Shrimad Bhagavatham) and Puranjaya’s son was Anenas. From Puranjaya / Kakutstha and Anenas the lineage is as follows:
    • Puranjaya (Vishnu Purana and Shrimad Bhagavatham / Kakutstha (Brahma Purana)
    • Anenas
    • Prithu
    • Viswagaswa, rendered Virasva and Vistarasva by Brahmapurana.
    • Ardra
    • Yuvanaswa
    • Srasvata – He founded the city of Srasvati.
    • Vrihadaswa (also spelled Brihad-Ashwa).
    • Kuvalayswa – He defeated demon Asura Dhundu. His sons (21000 in number) perished except three – Dridhaswa, Chadraswa and Kapliswa. Haryyaswa, the eldest son of these three succeeded to the throne.
    • Haryyaswa
    • Nikumbha
    • Sanhatswa – rendered Samhatasva in Brahma Purana. He had 2 sons, Akrasava and Krisasva, and a daughter Haimavati whose son was Prasenajit. The Brahma Purana proceeds with the genealogy tables from Prasenajit with the same names as in Vishnu Purana and Shrimad Bhagavatam below. However, since Prasenajit is the son of Haimavati in Brahma Purana, this would make the line to have descended from Haimavati (a female) as per Brahma Purana.
    • Krisaswa – The Vishnu Purana and Shrimad Bhagavatam says Prasenajit was Krisasva’s son.
    • Prasenajit married Gauri. As per Brahmapurana, he had 2 sons Yuvanaswa and Mandhatri. However, as per SB and Vishnu Purana, Mandhatri was Yuvanaswa’s son.
    • Yuvanaswa (he was second Yuvanaswa)- According to Vishnu Puarana, Yuvanaswa had no children, so the sages, took pity on Yuvanaswa and instituted a Yagya to help him procure progeny. One night, Yuvanaswa feeling thirsty and not wanting to disturb anybody, went in search of water. In darkness, he accidentally drank the consecrated water. In the morning the sages found the vessel containing the consecrated water to be empty and pronounced that a mighty son will be born to the queen who has drunk this water. Then Yuvanaswa told the sages about he having drunk the water. Accordingly, Yuvanaswa conceived a child in his belly. Upon birth of a male child, he was worried as to who would nurse the child. Lord Indra appeared and said – Mam Dhyasti i.e. I would be his nurse, and hence the boy was named Mandhatri.
    • Mandhatri – He married Chaitarathi / Bindumati, daughter of Sasabindu. He is supposed to be a mighty monarch who conquered seven continent and bought them under his dominion. A verse in Vishnu Purna is translated as “From the rising to the going down of the sun, all that is irradiated by his light, is the laand of Mandhatri* As per Brahmapurana he had 2 sons, Purukutsa and Mucukunda; and Trasdasya was the son of Purukutsa. From Purukuta the line follows in the same manner as SB and Vishnu Purana. However, SB and Vishnu Purana provide additional names between Mandhatri and Purukutsa as below:
    • Ambrisha (son of Yuvanaswa)
    • Yuvanaswa (third)
    • Purukutsa and Harita
    • Trasadasya (Son of Purukutsa and Narmada). According to Brahmapurana Narmada was Trasadasyu’s wife. One Kurusravana is described as the son of Trasadasyu in Rigveda 10.33 and hence Keith supposes that the Kurus existed in the Rg-Veda.[6] It remains a controversy as to whether Vedic literature knows of an enmity between the Kurus and the Pancalas, which we know of in the Mahabharata. Trasadasyu’s son was Sambuta.
    • Sambhuta
    • Anaranya – He was supposedly slain by Ravana.
    • Prishadaswa
    • Haryyaswa
    • Sumanas
    • Tridhanwan. In Brahmapurana, Tridhanwan is posited as the son of Sambuta, and the names in between Sambhuta and Tridhanwan as provided by SB and Vishnupurana are absent.
    • Trayyaruna
    • Satyavarta (also known as Trishanku). He was banished by his father Trayaruna and went to live with Svapakas. He killed Vasistha‘s cow. Brahmpurana says Vishwamitra made him ascend to heaven with his physical body.
    • Harishchandra. Also called Traishankava as the son of Trisanku.
    • Rohitaswa, also called Rohita.
    • Harita (Second Harita)
    • Chunchu, also spelled Chanchu, Cancu, Chamchu, Campa. Manusmrithi mentions Chenchu who have been explored for their links with the tribe Andhras [7]
    • Vijaya
    • Ruruka
    • Vrika
    • Bahu (also known as Bathuka) – His kingdom was overrun by neighbouring tribe of Haihayas and Talajangha. He was expelled to the jungle with his queens where Sage Aurva gave them shelter. As per Brahmapurana, Bahu was not very righteous. One of his queens, Yadavi, gave birth to Sagara together with poison (gara).
    • Sagara – he had 6001 sons. Sagara recaptured his father’s kingdom and defeated the tribes of Haiheyas, Talajhanghas, SakasPahlavas and Paradas. He shaved off the hair of Sakas halfway, that of Yavanas and Kambhojas totally, the Paradas had to wear their hair loose, and the Pahlavas had to wear moustaches. All of the following had to give up recitation; and were deprieved of their Kshatriya-hood and their dharma: Sakas, Kambhojas, YavanasParadas, Konisarpas (Kalasarpas), MahishakasCholas and Keralas. Sagara performed Ashvamedha and the horse disappeared near the coast of the South-eastern ocean. There they found Sage Kapila resting. According to the Vishnu Purana, Sagara’s sons killed Kapila. According to the Brahma Purana, Kapila is an avatara of Vishnu and burnt up Sagara’s sons and spared 4 of them—Barhiketu, Suketu, Dharmaratha, Panchananda. Then Kapila blessed Sagara, who went on to perform 100 Asvamedhas and begot 60,000 sons. One of the sons, named Panchajana entered the brilliance of Narayana and became King. His son Amsumat succeeded him.
    • Ansumat – the grandson of Sagara and son of Asmanjas / Panchajana.
    • Dilīpa.
    • Bhagiratha – Bhagiratha bought the river Ganges to earth from Heaven.
    • Sruta
    • Nabhaga
    • Ambarisha
    • Sindhudwipa
    • Ayutaswa
    • Rituparna, a friend of Nala.
    • Sarvakama
    • Sudasa, supposedly a friend of Indra.
    • Saudasa (also known as Mitrasaha, Kalmshapada and Kamlasapada Saudasa).

    After Saudasa, the Brahmapurana gives the descent until Raghu as follows:

    • Saudasa
    • Sarvakarman
    • Anaranya
    • Nighna
    • Anamitra and Raghu
    • Dulidaha, the son of Anamitra
    • Dilipa
    • Raghu

    After Saudasa, the Vishnupurana gives the descent until Raghu as follows:

    • Saudasa
    • Asmaka
    • Mulaka – [8] (also derogatorily called Narikavacha (one who uses ladies for armour) since he was surrounded and concealed by women when his enemies came searching for him). [In present times Mulaka is (1) name of a jangam tribe in Andhra Pradesh that claims to be Kapus / Balijas; and (2) alternate name used by Mulakanadu Brahmins ]
    • Dasratha (he was not the father of Rama)
    • Viswasaha
    • Khatwanga or Dileepa
    • Dirghabahu
    • Raghu

    After Raghu, all the puranas give the descent as follows:

    Valmiki Ramayana.

    The Genealogy of Rama is provided in the Ayodhya Kanda of Valmiki Ramayana as follows:[9]

    After Trishanku the Valmiki Ramayan continues with Yuvanasva as below:

    • Yuvanasva
    • Mandhata
    • Susandhi. He had 2 sons Dhruvasandhi and Prasenajit.
    • Bharata, born to Dhruvasandhi
    • Asita – Haihayas, Talajanghas and Shashibindavas became his enemies and drove him away. Asita became a Sage and took asylum in the Ashrama of Rishi Chyavana (a Bhrigu descendent). Asita’s wife Kalindi gave birth to Sagara together with the poison that she was given to destroy her foetus.
    • Sagara – excavated the ocean
    • Asamanja – banished by his father Sagara for wrongdoings. Asamanja’s son Amshuman succeeded him.
    • Amshuman
    • Dilipa
    • Bhagiratha
    • Kakutstha – his sons were called Kakutsthas. In the line of Kakutsthas was born a son called Raghu, from whence sprang the Raghavas.
    • Raghu
    • Pravriddha – he is also known as Purushadaka, Kalmashapada and Soudasa.
    • Shankhana
    • Sudarshana
    • Agnivarna
    • Shighraga
    • Maru
    • Prashushruva
    • Ambarisha
    • Nahusha
    • Nabhaga – had 2 sons Aja and Suvrata.
    • Dasartha, son of Aja.
    • Rama

    Descendants of Lord Rama.

    The lineage of Rama starting from him is as under:

    • Rama had two sons, Kusha and Lava
    • Kusa. Kusha married a Naga princess and held sway over Dakshina Kosala that roughly corresponds to present day Chattisgarh.[10]
    • Atithi
    • Nishadha
    • Nala
    • Nabhas, also known as Nabha
    • Pundarika
    • Kshemadhanwan, also spelled Kshemadanvan
    • Devanika
    • Ahinagu or Ahinaga, which the Shrimad Bhagvatam renders as Ahina.[11] Alternate Pali sources mention that Ahinaga, the King of Ayodhya was one of the Naga Kings ruling with great power and majesty who was converted to Buddha‘s faith.[12] Ahinaga is also portrayed in Buddhist literature as an initial adversary of Buddha, and sometimes as Vritra or as a descendent of the Vedic Ahi-Vritra. However, this version does not coroborrate with the version given by Bhavishya Purana where Gautama Buddha is born in the line of Brihadbala as mentioned in the tables below. Bhandarkar mentions pre-Buddhist literature which tells that there were four families of the Ahi ( Naga ) kings around the regions of Kampilya, while making mention that in the Mahabharat, Bhishma and Krishna stayed with the Sarpa and Naga families for sometime.[13] Ahinaga’s son was Pariyatra.

    The Brahma Purana gives the descent from Ahinaga to Vajranabha as follows:

    • Ahinaga
    • Sala
    • Ukhya, also known as Uktha
    • Vajranabha – had a son named Nala.

    The Vishnu Purana gives the descent from Ahinaga to Vajranabha as follows:

    • Ahinaga
    • Paripatra, also rendered as Pariyatra.
    • Dala
    • Chhala, also rendered as Bala and Vacchala. The Shrimad-Bhagavatam calls him Balasthala [14]
    • Uktha, also known as Ukhya
    • Vajranabha. In The Shrimad-Bhagavatam Vajranabha is listed as the son of Balasthala.[15]

    From Vajranabha to Brihadbala the genealogy given by the Vishnu Purana differs from the one given in the Shrimad-Bhagavatam.

    Vishnu Purana provides the genealogy as follows:

    • Vajranabha
    • Sankhanabha
    • Abhyutthitaswa
    • Viswasaha
    • Hiranyanabha – He was pupil of Sage Jaimini and is considered to be a Sage King. He communicated the knowledge of spiritual exercises to Yajnavalkya.
    • Pushya, also known as Pushpa.
    • Dhruvasandhi
    • Maru
    • Prasusruta
    • Susandhi
    • Amarsha
    • Mahaswat
    • Visrutavat
    • Vrihadbala – Brihadbala was the last king in this dynasty. He was killed in battle by Abhimanyu, son of Arjuna.

  • When Lord Rama Realized He Was ‘Brahman’

    One of the differences between the Avatars Rama and Lord Krishna(both being the Avatars of Vishnu) is that Lord Krishna  was aware all the time He was the Avatar of Vishnu, while Lord Rama was not aware of it.

    Lord Sri Rama
    Lord Sri Rama

    Excepting in one instance.

    Lord Rama was facing Ravana in the Final battle in the penultimate day before the death of Ravana in the Battle field.

    The battle was fierce and both Rama and Ravana were fighting each other fiercely.

    Ravana was matching Rama arrow for arrow(Astra) and Castra(Divine Weapons).

    Rama got weary and sent his Rama Bana, which can never return unconquered.

    There is famous saying about Lord Rama in Telugu,

    Oka Mata,Oka Bana, Oka Baarya’

    One word, One Arrow, One Wife -That’s Sri Rama.

    This Rama Bana went screaming at Ravana.

    Ravana saw this and realized he could do nothing about it.

    He remembered the Sathi Ayudha, given to him by his Grand Father, Lord Brahma, who told him thus,

    “In  battle field when everything fails for you, you us e this.

    Nothing can stop it. It will destroy everything’

    Ravana sends it across.

    It meets up with the Rama Bana and goes past it towards Lord Rama.

    Lord Rama was stunned.

    He was helpless.

    It was nearing his neck.

    Without being Conscious, He utters the Pranava ‘Om from His Navel (Nabhi)

    Pranava, coming from the Reality, shatters the Sakthi Ayudha.

    Rama realizes He is more than the son of Dasaratha, husbanf Sita or the Preceptor of Hanuman.

    Ravana recalls the second part of his Grand father‘s Boon,

    ‘ If and when this Sakthi Ayudha fails, understand thatwho is facing yoyu is Para Brahman

    Ravana gets down from his chariot and prostrates  before Lord Rama, saying,

    ‘ Now In Know You are The Brahman,

    I can not win you,

    Dying in Your hands will grant me Mukthi.

    I can not surrender for people have died, including my brothers and son,s for Me.

    I can not sully them’

    Ram replies,

    .’Ravana, you are with out Arms to-day,

    Go to-day and come forth prepared to morrow’

    Birth Date of Lord Rama.

    As for as The Ramayana goes, external evidence is provided in the Puranas(means ‘ very old’) , Eighteen in Number( in Sanskrit) and in regional Languages of India, be it Tamil,Telugu,Kannada, Malayalam,Hindi,Bengali,Oriya,other languages .

    In addition Dialects of India have this spread through word of mouth.

    Though the versions vary in embellishments, the basic fact that there was a King called Rama , he had been sent to forest with his wife called Sita by his father who wanted to appease his wife(not Rama’s mother),she was abducted by a Chieftain called Ravana of Sri Lanka and he was killed by Rama , never varies.(History of The Tamils by P.T.Srinivasa Iyengar)

    while the whole world is talking highly of the values found in the Ramayana, these people write to state that if Sita had stayed in

    Ravana‘s place for ten months, she should have lost her chastity( Annadurai in ‘Kambarasam’)
    people who formed a party because they could not hope to get a share of an elderly man’s property,

    are mostly people sans personal integrity, are corrupt-remember 2 G Scam,

    earn their livelihood by chanting the name of Tamil,

    admit their children in English Medium,

    pretend to hate Hindi, but falling at the feet of Delhi,

    murder for power and money,

    How does one react to them?

    If you believe in Tamil then it is equally Right in believing Ramayana.

    Do these people deny Nakkerar and his Thirumurukaatruppadai and Aatruppdai Noolkal?

    Do they deny Agathtiyam?

    Do they deny Bhakti Ilakkiyam?

    Do they deny the * Thinai Theivangal quoted by Tholkappiyam? Cheyon(Muruga),Mayon(Vishnu),Kotravai,Varuna?

    Do they at least know that there are Gods assigned by Tamil to each Geographical Entity?

    Do they know that the Mahabharata speaks highly of Tamil Culture and quote Tamil kings who participated in The Mahabharata war?

    Well, the Agenda is to make a fast buck by inciting passions.

    They have ruined the Tamils of Sri Lanka by talking non sense  and ran/are running away  when they face problems.

    These are the charlatans one should be beware.

    There is no necessity for any one else to destroy Tamil.

    These gentlemen will do nicely.

    It is a wonder that Tamil still lives despite these people.

    Noe coming to the issue on hand ,

    There is evidence that Rama destroyed the Bridge in some versions of Ramayana,Adhyatma Ramayanam

    What remains now is the remains.

    For Lord Rama‘s Date of Birth,Route taken by Rama-please read my blogs.

    Lord Rama’s existence is proved as also Tamil’ as  ‘கல்தோன்றி மண்தோன்றாக் காலத்தே முன்தோன்றி மூத்த குடி’

    Evidence abounds for both.

    To conclude read my head line for this Blog.

    ‘சேதுசமுத்திரக் கால்வாய்த் திட் டம் –  நிறைவேற்றப்பட்டு, கப்பல் களின் போக்குவரத்து நடைபெற் று வருவாய் வந்து சேரவேண்டிய நேரத்தில், மக்கள் நலத் திட்டத் தின் குறுக்கே புராணக் கதாப் பாத்திரமான ராமனைக் காரணம் காட்டி, அதன் இறுதிப் பணிகளை தடுத்து நிறுத்திவிட்ட‍ னர்.

    ராமன் என்ற ஒருவன் இருந்தானா? பாலம் கட்டினானா? என்பது ஒரு பக்கம் இருக்கட்டும்.

    ராமன் கடவுள் அவதாரம் என்றால் அவன் எய்த அம்பு யார் யாரை யோ, எதை எதையோ, துளைத்து ச் சென்று, சீதை மீது இராவணன் கொண்ட ஆசையின் அணுக்களை எல்லாம் குத்திக் குதறி, மீண்டும் இராமனிடமே வந்து சேர்ந்தது என்று சொல்வதில் இந்துத்துவா வா திகளுக்கும், சுப்பிரமணிய சாமிக்கும், அதிமுக பொதுச் செ யலாளருக்கும், நம்பிக்கை இருக் குமேயானால், அந்த ராமன் பால த்தைக் காப்பாற்றிக் கொள்ள ராமனால் முடியாதா? ராமன் பாலத் தைக் காப்பாற்ற இந்த அற்பமானிடர்கள் யார் என்ற கேள்வி எழா தா?

    இன்னொரு கேள்வியும் இருக்கிறது. அவர்கள் நம்பும், ஆதாரம் காட்டும் அந்தப் புராண நம்பிக்கையின் அடிப்படையிலேயே கேட் கிறது அந்த இணையம்.

    ராமன் கட்டிய பாலத்தை அந்த ராமனே இடித்து விட்டான் என்று சேது புராணமே கூறுகிறதே. இத ற்கு என்ன பதில்?

    சேது புராணம் என்ன? கம்ப இராமா யணமே கூறுகிறதே. மீட்சிப் படல ம் 17 ஆவது பாடல் என்ன கூறுகி றது? என்பதை சுட்டிக்கா ட்டி,

    “மரக்கால் மியங்க வேண்டி
    வரிசிலைக் குதையாற்
    கூறித் தருக்கிய
    விடத்தினை”

    எனும் பாடலில் போர் முடிந்த பின்னர் ராமன் புஷ்பக விமா னத்தில் பறந்து செல்கையில் கடலில் அவ்விடத்து மரக்கல ங்கள் இனிது செல்லும் பொரு ட்டு தனது வில்லின் நுனியால், சேதுவை ராமனே உடைத்தார் என்று கம்பநாட்டாழ்வாரே சொன்ன பிறகு இந்த இந்துத் துவ வாதிகள் யார்?

    ஒன்றைப் பொதுமக்கள் புரிந்து கொள்ள வேண்டும். கடவுளும், மத மும், சாத்திரங்களும் மக்கள் நலனுக்கும், வளர்ச்சிக்கும் முட்டுக் கட்டையானது என்று தந்தை பெரியார் அவர்களின் கொள்கை களை திராவிடர் கழகம் பிரச்சாரம் செய்து கொண்டு வருகிறதே. அது எவ்வளவு பெரிய உண்மை என்பதற்கு ராமன் பாலத்தைக் கா ட்டி மக்கள் நலத் திட்டமான சேதுக் கால்வாய்த் திட்டத்தை முடக் குகிறார்களே இது ஒன்று போதாதா?

    என்று அந்த இணையத்தில் கட்டுரையை முடித்துள்ளார்.
