Vedas are probably the manuals of the universe and the mankind but have been purposefully tagged as religious books
The recent Chandrayaan-3 mission has made the entire nation proud. The new information and novel scientific data provided by this mission are astonishing and forced the world to respect India’s scientific capabilities. However, as Dr. S. Somanath, the Chairman ofISRO, had said few months ago that the “Principles of science originated in Vedas, but repackaged as western discoveries”; we should not be only proud for Chandrayaan-3, but we should also be proud of our Vedas, and instead of looking them as religious texts, we must now tell the world keeping eye to eye that India is the mother of all modern Sciences and discoveries that started since the Vedic era. In my previous olumn “Science is our child but ancient knowledge, tradition & culture are roots of our family” I have also given several examples of our own researches that are based on various Vedic scriptures.
It is regrettable that, in our country, a specific community is designated as “Intellectuals”;but the people from ISRO, DRDO, CSIR etc. those who have dedicated their life and continuously working towards nation building are not. Most painful is that these so called or self declared “Intellectuals” with a mindset that their opinions and views are the supreme,unfortunately making more sense to our people. It is well known that to invade or destroy a civilization and turn people into slaves (colonization), there are six to seven principles to be executed. The most important is, erase the glorious history and make the people mentally accept that they are inferior population. It can be done by destroying their knowledge or scratching their wisdom and making them believing that those knowledge or wisdom does not belong to them but it is the knowledge of the invaders who are a superior race. This is the particular thing happened with the Hindusthanis (Indians) and unfortunately we are still in this “colonial hangover” and can’t believe the statements of Dr. S. Somanath but we believe those “Intellectuals” who neither have knowledge of our glorious history nor want to accept them due to some vested interests.
It is fed to us that Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543) discovered the Solar system. But the fact is that Aryabhata (476–550 BCE) from the Hindusthan was the first to propose the theory of Solar system. More importantly, our Vedas which are thousand years old scriptures have described the Solar system in details and gave the concept of “Nabagraha”. Vedas also provides powerful “Beej” mantras of these planets and surprisingly today what the various space agencies are documenting the sound of these planets are the same sound of those “Beej” mantras. For example, the sound of Sun recorded by NASA is similar to the “Beej” mantra of the Sun: “oṃ hrāṃ hrīṃ hrauṃ saḥ sūryāya namaḥ”. “Beej” mantra of Saturn is “oṃ prāṃ prīṃ prauṃ saḥ śanaiścarāya namaḥ”. NASA’s Cassini mission recorded a similar sound of Saturn. Jupiter “Beej” mantra is “oṃ grāṃ grīṃ grauṃ saḥ guruve namaḥ” and Moon’s is “oṃ śrāṃ śrīṃ śrauṃ saḥ candrāya namaḥ”. Recorded Moon’s sound is here. If you know the “Beej” mantras of other planets and recite them, you will find that they are matching with the recorded sounds of those planets. Now the question is how the people of Vedic era know or the Vedas describe the universe so accurately even their sounds in such a detail that we are not able to achieve using our today’s advanced technologies?
Nowadays every product comes with a user manual. Some people consider that the Universe is a creation. If so, then there must be some user manual to understand its principles and to run it properly. Is it like that the Vedas are the manuals of the universe and the mankind without limiting into any barrier? No barrier because when the Vedas were originated or written,there were only manhood and no religion exists except the humanity. The fact is that, the colonization mindset have realized and utilized our Vedic Scriptures. Later, as per their colonization principles and creation of some self-oblivious “Intellectuals” they have purposefully tagged the Vedas and other Vedic scriptures as religious books or superstations to hide the truth.
Unfortunately, the name itself of our nation India still carries the colonial imprint.
As per Oxford Dictionary, meaning of India is “a country in southern Asia which used to be part of the British Empire. It became independent and a member of the Commonwealth in 1947”. As a result, we the Indians (basically Hindusthani) are still in dilemma and not able to overcome this “colonial hangover” or do not recognize and believe on our own heroes. With this sick mindset we are delighted for Chandrayaan-3 but do not feel proud for our Vedas and other Vedic scriptures which are the Mother of all Sciences.
