Talks Of 7000-Year-Old Spaceships Jolt 102nd Indian Science Congress

With Prime Minister Narendra
Modi in attendance (as seen in the picture), and various other
prestigious scientists from all over the world, the Indian Science
Congress is probably the last place you would expect a presentation
regarding ancient flying machines that could traverse the Solar System.
For the first time in the history of the congress, a presentation was
given outlining the depiction of these ancient flying ‘space ships.’
These flying machines have been depicted
in multiple Sanskrit texts such as the Vedas, the Puranas and more.
What’s even more remarkable is the fact that this type of machinery, and
the concept of intelligent extraterrestrial life is not limited to
ancient Sanskrit (Hinduism and Buddhism), but is found in several
different ancient civilizations that span across the globe, according to
many scholars and academicians. This doesn’t mean it’s true, but it
does mean that the subject should be able to be examined with an open
mind, without ridicule and condemnation.
The idea of mixing in a serious talk on
ancient Indian flying machines when presentations on more rigid research
and science policy issues are being discussed, at a major science
conference, in my opinion, is great. It probably opened the minds of
many who otherwise would have not even thought about something like this
in the first place.
The lecture was given by Captain Anand
Bodas, a retired pilot and head of a pilot training facility. The
presentation was titled “Ancient Indian Sciences Through Sanskrit.”
The lecture sent a jolt through the congress, and didn’t come without
any backlash. A NASA scientist, Ram Prasad Gandhiraman was so upset
that he started an online petition demanding that the Indian Science
Congress cancel the lecture, because (in his opinion) it mixed science
with mythology. (source)
According to RT news, here is one quote from the lecture:
“There is a reference to ancient aviation in the Rigveda (Vedic Sanskrit Hymns).
The basic structure was of 60 by 60 feet, and in some cases, over 200
feet. They were jumbo planes, the ancient planes had 40 small engines.
Today’s aviation does not know even of a flexible exhaust system.” (source)
These types of concepts and ideas have
been gaining more popularity, which in turn has lead to mainstream
television shows like “Ancient Aliens,’ one that is commonly aired on
the discovery channel.
More Information Regarding Ancient Flying Machines In Sanskrit Texts
If you are interested in these concepts,
you will probably find the “Vimanas” of the Ramayana, Mahabharata and
the Samarangana Sutradhara very interesting.
The Ramayana is a Veda epic that dates
back to the fourth/fifth century, B.C. These flying machines are also
described in the Mahabharata, another ancient text. One of the vimana’s
is described as having “twelve cubits in circumference, with four strong
wheels and 20 to 25 feet in circumference and approximately seven feet
in diameter.” This is one description of many, from various texts like
the description Anand Bodas gave above. (1)
In one passage, a vimana is described as a “chariot
that resembles the sun, that aerial and excellent chariot going
everywhere at will, resembling a bright cloud in the sky, and the king
got in and the excellent chariot rose up into the higher atmosphere.” (1)(2)(3)
“They roar off into the sky until they appear like comets.” The Mahabharata and several other Sanskrit texts describe at length these chariots, “powered by winged lighting, it was a ship that soared into the air, flying to both the solar and stellar regions.” (4)
The Samarangana Sutradhara is a
classical Indian architecture text written in 1000-1055 AD. In it, whole
chapters are devoted to describing ancient airships.
“It also describes types of
machines as automotive, one stroke engine, remote-control machine and
driver-run machine. Keep in mind, this is 1000 years ago. It devotes one
full chapter on the building of flying machines. The book does not
explain the process of building airplanes completely and says that it
has been done purposely, for the sake of secrecy.” – Prabhakar Apte, MA and PhD in Sanskrit. (3)(5)
The Tibetan books of Tantyua and Kantyua
mention prehistoric flying machines, which they refer to as “pearls in
the sky.” In both books, they emphasize that this knowledge is secret,
and should be kept from the masses. The list literally goes on and on
and is quite interesting.

Again, various texts around the globe,
according to many, seem to describe ancient extraterrestrials and UFOs.
There is also an abundance of ancient art depicting these types of
concepts.
“The Samarangana Sutradhara is a
classical Indian architecture written in 1000-1055 AD. In it, whole
chapters are devoted to describing airships whose tails spout fire and
quicksilver. “The world ‘fire’ in ancient texts cannot mean burning
fire, for altogether some forty different kinds of “fire,” mainly
connected with esoteric and magnetic phenomena, are enumerated.” – Erich Von Daniken (6)

Real Or Mythical?
There is more evidence available today
suggesting that these stories are real, as opposed to the evidence which
suggests they are simply mythological stories that were made up and
written about from imagination. I’m referring to the UFO phenomenon, one
that continues to gain more attention around the world, and one that
has been verified by dozens of governments. This phenomenon seems to
corroborate in some form to stories that we find in various ancient
texts throughout the world. I won’t go into too much detail here but you
can check out this articles for more information on that, and visit the Exopolitics section of our website here.
At the same time, many scientists have
concluded that very few of the craft it describes would likely be able
to fly at all. There is no shortage of differing opinions on this
matter.I have a hard time believing that the ancients spent so much time
and detail describing these crafts out of pure imagination. What are
your thoughts? Feel free to share them in the comment section below.
“We are not going to get any
further with the old approach which scholars unfortunately still cling
to: That doesn’t exist…those are mistakes in translation…those are
fanciful exaggerations by the author or copyists.” – Erich Von Daniken (6)
