He writes regarding the age of the earth in his great book, The Age of Earth (1913) as follows: "Long before it became a scientific aspiration to estimate the age of the earth, many elaborate systems of the world chronology had been devised by the sages of antiquity. The most remarkable of these occult time-scales is that of the ancient Hindus, whose astonishing concept of the Earth's duration has been traced back to Manusmriti, a sacred book." When the Hindu calculation of the present age of the earth and the expanding universe could make Professor Holmes so astonished, the precision with which the Hindu calculation regarding the age of the entire Universe was made would make any man spellbound.

On one side, it can be said that it is the music within, the Sat-Chit-Ananda (Existence-Knowled ge- Bliss Absolute) that finds manifold expressions outside in man’s life. Viewed from the other side, it is the sublimation of actions, words and thoughts that lead one to hear the same music within. #Sound_as_the_Source_of_Cr eation In India, music is considered as a subtle divine thread capable of linking the Jeevatman (individual soul) with the Parmatman (Supreme Soul), a concept originating in the Tantric idea of Sabdabrahman, the primeval source of creation. This idea finds expression in the eloquent words of the renowned violinist Yehudi Menuhin, ‘Indian music reflects Indian life having no predetermined beginni

Devyani Khobragade incident- The United States should tender unconditional apology

Pic courtesy- The Financial Express The actions of the United States government in the arrest of Devyani Khobragade is nothing but  a national humiliation for India. The American government not only ignored the established international laws and norms of treatment of diplomats who enjoy immunity but out raging the modesty of a women who does not have previous criminal antecedents and treating her like a hardened criminal. This actions for any self respecting nation is unacceptable. The Govt of India took the right step in taking a tough line and making the American govt understand their wrong doings. Nothing but an unconditional apology from the American govt will be acceptable for us Indians. better America take corrective steps before the relations with India gets strained for ever. Let it be the last time that such a thing happens anywhere and act as a reminder to the erring officers that their will be consequences for their reckless actions Vante Mathram

Ancient Indian Sciences- The Vimana

Pic Courtesy- Ancient Indian UFO The Vimana in Ancient India had great significance. It signifies the flying object and also the temple tower or gopura. But the most common usage is that of the flying object much like the modern Airplane. There was the Vimana Shastra that was revealed that describes in detail about a flying object and the technology involved. Now the authenticity of a flying object in Indian Culture is a hotly contested subject in modern scientific fraternity. But one should not miss the fact that there lies a large similarity between the description of flying machines which carry "gods from stars" as described in many cultures from India to Egypt to the Maya, cultures that are separated by thousands of kilometers. How is that each civilization has their own description of a flying object. The most logical explanation is given by the Ancient Alien theorists who say that earth was visited by Aliens from another planets for millennium. The construc

2013 elections- The lessons that politicians must learn

"A democracy is for the people, by the people and of the people" Democracy is refered to as the best form of government in the world, a product of modern liberal thinking that has refined it from the days of ancient Greece (particularly Athens). It is s system wherein the people participate, electing their own government who return to them for re-election after a fixed time. But like any other system, democracy is also prone to decay and exploitation. The theoretical  meaning of democracy is soon eroded with crooked politicians who take the common / citizen for a ride with many promises and after that he seldom cares about those who helped him come to power. Those are the times when anarchy sett in and there is a virtual change of government by the masses by exercising their ballot. India is one of the largest and most functional democracy on the face of the earth. With power going all the way to the grass root level, each elections see active participation my

My favorite combat ships

INS Vikramaditya (Pic Courtesy Wikimedia)  I had been giving a compilation of my favorite weapons. Last  time I dealt with Combat Planes. This time I am choosing combat ships. Now there may be better ships currently in service, but I have chosen my favorite ones that is currently in service or which may enter services in the future. This is not a countdown but just my favorite. (Disclaimer: All details given under are available in public domain and repositories like Wikipedia. Sufficient care has been taken not reveal any classified data of any combatants in this article. Due care is taken for the same) So here is my countdown: NIMITZ CLASS AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS Nimitz (Pic courtesy Wikimedia) Nothing epitomizes the projection of power like an Aircraft Carrier. Aircraft Carriers allows rulers of a country to project their power in any part of the globe. Their are moving sovereign territory of a nation. Perhaps the most powerful class of the Aircraft Ca

Flankers- The new threat to Australia ( Info courtesy Indian Military Page)

Royal Australian Air force (Pic Courtesy Wikimedia) (This article had to be shared with my readers. This article was first published in the Indian Military Page in Facebook. The copy right is owned by the unknown author)  Distance and the lack of long-range aircraft in the Southeast Asian air forces have for decades offered a sense of security to the Australians. But today that security is being eroded by the arrival of super-maneuverable aircraft like the Sukhoi 27 Flanker and Sukhoi 30 Flanker C. These combat jets have been inducted in large numbers in the air forces of China, Indonesi a, Malaysia and Vietnam. The arrival of the Sukhois has evened the odds in the Asia Pacific theatre. Australian pilots, who considered themselves top guns flying their F-18 Hornet and F-111 Aardvark fighter bombers, now are having to faceoff with the Flankers that are superior in almost every aspect. According to Air Power Australia, “The acquisition of Russian designed Sukhoi Su-27SK and

Remembering Nelson Mandela, one of the greatest leaders of the the world may have ever seen

Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela In this life, when there is evil, a person comes along who rewrites history by becoming history himself, who fights all odds and changes systems that was long supposed to unchangeable. When Apartheid (the policy of racial segregation on the lines of a person's colour)  was rampant in South Africa, this great man came along fought a relentless battle, spend almost 27 years behind and in the end won the battle making racial discrimination illegal. His war was peaceful taking inspiration from the great Mahatma. He went on to become the first black President of South Africa. Today when he left this world for the heavens, we the humanity has lost a noble soul , a great leader and one that will never be replaced. I salute you sir for your life's work. May your soul rest peace.
