Re: Parallel History of India

And imagine Muslims speaking in Persian and Tamilians replying in Tamil:D, if Rajnikanth was born in that age, no invader would have reached even HinduKush:D

1st cousins gettin married!!

there use to be one more chola dynasty before this modern one during sangam period…
this people stretched to sri lanka,maldivies,bali that’s why you see lot of hindu influence in this countries
even thailand follows ramayan even though they are a buddhist countries…

coming to temples not just madurai,sri rangam biggest/tallest gopuram (dunno whats it’s called in hindi) for a hindu temple,even early structure of tirupati had chola influence later it was remodel by krishnadevaraya
another one is nataraja temple in chimdabaram birthplace of bharathanatyam, tiruvannamalai(annamalai lord shiva ) another big one next only to madurai and sri rangam…
most of the time cholas were passionate shivates during later period they started building vishnu temples…

personally visited madurai,sri rangam,tiruvannamalai this places were simply awesome,tamil people had real talented engineers in those days . dunno how they lifted those huge stones during BC without lifts.
heard most of the temple took hundred years to complete…
small note on madurai all the four gopurams facing north/south/east/west have same length/width in measurements not even one inch lesser all four sides are exactly equal,also inside the temple there is a craving done on one big stone

Sangam literature came in 3rd BC and was just before this dynasty was formed, at the height of their power they fought for tripartite struggle with Pals and Pratihars for capturing Kannauj:k:

Re: Parallel History of India

Where is this Kannauj situated. I think Ghaznavi also attacked that.

Re: Parallel History of India

it's not mantras it called suprabhatam(suprabhat in hindi/sanskrit) it is used as prayer for god to wake up

famous one being

kausalya supraja rama purva sandhya pravartate**

Re: Parallel History of India

lol it’s opposite

some of the Sinhalese believe they were descendants of medieval aryan kindom who migrated to sri lanka…
another theory is jaffna tamils were the original inhabitants of lankan island

Re: Parallel History of India

Kannauj is 350 km south-east of Delhi, 250 Kms east of Agra, it centre of UP, famous for Itr, Miyanji ne Rs400 me zara si sheeshi dii thi:(

Bhagwan Ram was the first one:), He destroyed Pandit Rawan’s kingdom:k:

muqawwee123 · May 25, 2012, 12:35pm

Re: Parallel History of India

So Rawan was the Pundit for whose death Bhagwan Rama has to suffer?

the_kaur · May 25, 2012, 12:44pm

Re: Parallel History of India

Rawan was born to Maharishi vishrwa and Rakshasi Mata Keksi, he grew up like Brahmin, prayed like Brahmin, got Vardan, blessing like Rakshas, devout devotee of Bhagwan Shiv, Lived like RakshasRaj, died like Rakshas, but while dying he claimed he is Pandit and gave Laksman, Shiksha, education and made him to sit on his feets and Bhagwan kept his head on his thigh:)

Re: Parallel History of India

Okay.. So Ravana was a grey character instead of total villain. :) So on his death Rama got shraap and has to develope 101 Shivlingam you mentioned in other thread?

babloos · May 25, 2012, 12:51pm

Re: Parallel History of India

ravana had full knowledge of vedas and sastras

unlike other evil charecters ravana was not a Asura but was born to a great sage...........

if it wasn't for his interest in sita,he would be been one of the greatest in mythology,all the wars were do to women in indian epics............

small note:

ravana is actually one of the gate keeper(jaya-vijaya) of vishnu,another one been kumbakarana who got cursed

Re: Parallel History of India

What is the importance of being gate keeper of Vishnu? I mean is Vishnu one the gods?

Re: Parallel History of India

prayers for god to wake up, meaning prayers to god after one wakes up?

muqawwee123 · May 25, 2012, 4:59pm

Re: Parallel History of India

I think the concept is to attribute melodies to the gods at start of the day.

I don't know whether in Hinduism there is a concept of ever woken up god as we Muslims have.

Re: Parallel History of India

This is suprabhatam

muqawwee123 · May 25, 2012, 5:11pm

Re: Parallel History of India

ok ninja, you told that there are no mughal buildings in your area (Nagpur). That means the area remained under the rule of local dynasties? Which rulers are famous in your area and form part of folklore of Nagpur?

ninja_hattori · May 25, 2012, 5:16pm

Re: Parallel History of India

Nagpur was ruled by Bhosle family....descendants of Shivaji...I think.........:D

chandrapur region 150 km away had Gond Rajas...they have names similar to muslims...

And few km away from it started Nizam state....first nizam was actually a mughal general...let the kaur clarify it..:D
