Ancient India ,Egypt, South America and Yugas

 

  The duration of the Satya Yuga millennium equals 4,800 years of the demigods; the duration of the Dvāpara millennium equals 2,400 years; and that of the Kali millennium is 1,200 years of the demigods […] As aforementioned, one year of the demigods is equal to 360 years of the human beings. The duration of the Satya-yuga is therefore 4,800 x 360, or 1,728,000 years. The duration of the Tretā-yuga is 3,600 x 360, or 1,296,000 years. The duration of the Dvāpara-yuga is 2,400 x 360, or 864,000 years. And the last, the Kali-yuga, is 1,200 x 360, or 432,000 years in total.’

The Dvapara Yuga is the third out of four yugas, or ages, described in the scriptures of Hinduism. This yuga comes between Treta Yuga and Kali Yuga.

According to thePuranas, this yuga ended at the moment when Krishnareturned to his eternal abode of Vaikuntha. According to theBhagavata Purana, the Dvapara Yuga lasts 864,000 years.

Submarine megalithic structures off the coasts of Malta, Egypt, Lebanon, India, China, andJapan in waters up to 70 meters deep, were evidently submerged when the Ice Age ended and sea-level rose about 100 meters because of runoff from the melting of the Ice Age ice-packs.

Many of these megaliths were astronomical measuring devices, which indicates that their Ice Age constructors had map-making capabilities and sailed the seas, as demonstrated by a commonality of the architectural motifs of the megaliths worldwide, and as demonstrated by Turkish navigational maps which were sourced from ancient Phoenician maps and show coastlines of the Ice Age world with accuracies of latitude and longitude to not be matched until modern times.

Mainstream earth-chronologists insist that the Ice Age ended around 10000 B.C., at which point the sea-level rose to submerge these megaliths. However, the submerged megaliths are of designs and uses characteristic of around 2000 B.C. Are we therefore to believe that advanced civilizations actually began before 10000 B.C., and not around 3000 B.C. (as is commonly published)?

Mainstream archaeologists have said that the advanced civilizations of the Old and New Worlds appeared suddenly around 3000 B.C. without evidence of cultural and technological evolution to that pyramid-building level of mathematical and engineering sophistication. Therefore, how can it be that the megaliths were submerged 12,000 years ago?
In the Rig Veda of ancient Hinduism, the text says that the N.W. Indian city of Dwarka was submerged by the encroaching ocean when the ancient patriarch Krishna died.

Are we to believe that Krishna died around 10,000 B.C, and therefore that Hinduism is over 12,000 years old?

The megaliths of ancientDwarka are in fact found submerged just offshore from modern Dwarka, and the huge stone walls built of megalithic blocks which had been interlocked with chiseled L-shaped dovetails are characteristic of the Indus Civilization that popularly is advertised to have had flourished near 2,000 B.C., not 10,000 B.C.

he Gulfs of Cambay and Kutch, just south of Dwarka, also hold submerged megalithic Indus Civilization structures that were covered by the ocean at the melting of the Ice Age. Computer-generated maps of the world as it was during the Ice Age reveal thatancient Dwarka was about 100 km inland during the Ice Age.
Also inland were the now submerged Indus Civilization megaliths on the floor of the Gulfs of Kutch and Cambay, as were the megaliths of Tamil pyramidal construction off the coast of southern India at Cape Cormorin and Madurai.

Ancient Hindu legends reveal that two Sangams (schools) were submerged by encroaching seas, and local divers say that thesubmerged pyramids look like the current Sangam pyramid at Madurai.

According to the computer-generated Ice Age maps, about 25 million square miles of land were submerged by the rising sea-level because of the melting of the Ice Age ice-pack, and much of that land is now the floor of the shallow seas of southern Asia.

To the east of India, Ice Age megaliths of the Jomon Civilization are found on the sea-floor between Japan and Taiwan (at Yonaguni, Kerama, Chatan, and more). These stone circles, tiered plazas, and step-pyramids of astronomical measuring significance are found on the sea-floor, as they are on land, thus proving that these buildings were of the same time period.

Are we to believe that these astronomically significant megaliths were built some 12,000 years ago at a time when mainstream earth-chronologists insist that the Ice Age ended and sea level as a result rose about 100 meters to engulf these megaliths which are evidently and contradictorily of 2,000 B.C. vintage?

Are we to believe that the Hindu and Tamil recounts of history have been going on for 12,000 years, and that humanity developed no further and built no more for 7,000 years (from 10,000 B.C. to 3,000 B.C.) until advanced cultures reemerged in Egypt and Sumeria (Babylon)?

Such a torturous manipulation of the evidences from the archaeology and the ancient legends is unnecessary with the realization that the Ice Age did in fact end much later than is popularly advertised.

Egypt and Sumeria were building their megaliths when the Indus,Tamil, and Jomon people were building theirs during the Ice Age.

The ancient history book Popol Vuh of the Olmec-descendedMayans recalls the time when their seafaring ancient ancestors arrived from the east because of their sophisticated navigational skills as they “studied and measured the round face of the earth and the arch of the sky” in a time of “constant twilight” and “black rain.”

The obviously heavy volcanic ash content of this rain and the dense cloud-cover from which this rain came that blocked the sun to cause “constant twilight”, shows that the Mayan ancestors arrived during the Ice Age.

POPOL VUH- South America 's scripture similar to Ancient Indian Scripture

        
        Popol Vuh - narrative about the origins, traditions and history of the

        Quiché (K'iche') Maya nation told by an anonymous Guatemalan Indian who produced

           the document between 1554 and l558.

In Chichicastenango around l7OO, a priest, Francisco Ximenez copied the manuscript, adding a Spanish translation.

 

Now there are several (perhaps many) translations of the Popol Vuh, popol vuh  including Goetz and

Morley's English translation of Recinos' Spanish version, Munro Edmonson's scholarly

translation which reproduces typescript of the original Quiché (K'iche'), Dennis Tedlock's

translation done with the help of a Quiche shaman (which is nicely annotated and footnoted,

but which lacks any reproduction of the Quiché. A Native speaker of K'iche' ( Chavez ) has

also provided a translation into Spanish, and Allen Christenson has perhaps the most recent

translation (2000).

 

Part I Part I of Popol Vuh consists of two stories.

• l. A narration of the failure of the gods to create earthly beings

who will adore, obey, and sustain them (three chapters).

• 2. tells how two mysterious twins, Hunahpu and Xbalanque

destroy an arrogant celestial being, Vucub-Caquix, and his two sons,

Zipacna and Cabracan, who refused to adore, obey, and sustain their creators.

The first story of Part I opens with a description of what it was like before the first creation began.

"All was empty..., all was in silence..., all was motionless...there was only the sky and the sea".

In the sea, surrounded with light, hidden under green feathers, was

Gucumatz. In the sky was "the Heart of Heaven, or God- as he is called."

All was in suspense

Then came the word, like a lightning bolt it ripped through the sky,

penetrated the waters, and fertilized the minds of the Earth-Water

Deities, Tepeu and Gucumatz

Then the creator couple said "let it be done", and it was done: The

earth emerged from the sea; plants put forth shoots; wild animals came to be.

And then the Gods made three frustrated attempts to create humankind; first out of animals,

then out of mud, and finally out of wood. The Wood men were killed off too,

however, and their descendants are today's monkeys.

The second story opens with a vain Lucifer figure named Vucub-Caquix, who had two sons;

Zipacna and Cabracan, both of whom made the earth shake as they burrowed under mountains.

The Hero Twins (Hunahpu and Xbalanque), out hunting, shoot Vucub Caquix in the jaw

with a blowgun, while he is in a tree eating fruit. Angered, Vucub Caquix tears off Hunahpu's arm.

To recover the arm, the twins pose as dentists, go to Vucub Caquix' house, and dupe him into

letting them pull his teeth and replace them with white corn kernels (while they retrieve the arm).

With his new corn dentures, Vucub Caquix no longer looked like a lord, so he died in poverty.

Then the Hero Twins set out to kill Zipacna. (( Zipacna had himself just finished killing "the 4OO

young men". He had feigned death when the four hundred young men tried to do him in by having

him dig a hole in the ground so that they could plant a pole on him, but he escaped, and while they

were celebrating his death, they were then crushed by Zipacna, becoming stars in the

sky.)) The Hero Twins made a crab to lure Zipacna, who found the crab and was killed in its

embrace of death.

Next, the Hero Twins poisoned a bird with white earth, and when Cabracan ate the bird, he died.

Part II PART II comprises the next l4 chapters.

The first two of these 14 chapters introduce two brothers, Hun Hunahpu and Vucub Hunahpu,

sons of Xpiyacoc and Xmucane (the diviners), one of whom (Hun Hunahpu) is the father of the hero

twins.

Hun Hunahpu and his wife Xbaquiyalo have two sons; Hun Batz' and Hun Chouen

(we find out later that Hun Hunahpu and another woman, Xquic ["Ms. Blood"]

are the parents of the Hero Twins)

Hun Hunahpu teams up every day with his bachelor brother to play the

ballgame with his sons, the "Monkey Twins" (Hun Batz' and Hun Chouen).

One day the noise of their ballgame annoyed the Lords of Hell (Xibalba), who

summoned the Hunahpu brothers to come and play ball.

The Hunahpu brothers came down to Hell, and after a series of tortures

they were sacrificed and buried.

On the spot where the brothers were buried, a tree sprang up,

loaded with skulls for fruit, and among the fruit was the head of Hunahpu, in skull form.

Along came Xquic, daughter of one of the Lords of Hell. She reached up

to pick one of the fruits, and the skull of Hun Hunahpu spat in her hand.

This made her pregnant with the Hero Twins.

When her pregnancy was noticed, her father ordered four messengers to

take her out into the woods and sacrifice her and bring back her heart for burning.

Xquic talked the messengers into letting her live, so they brought back a false heart in a gourd.

Xquic went up to earth to the home of her new "mother-in-law, Xmucane, where she gave

birth to the Hero Twins

The Monkey Brothers, half brothers of the Hero Twins (having the same

father, Hun Hunahpu) envied the Hero Twins, and tried to kill them with

ants and with thistles. But the Hero Twins survived being placed on an anthill,

and also being placed on thistles while still infants.

The Hero twins, once grown, tricked their Monkey half-brothers into

climbing a tree, where they turned into monkeys while the tree grew

taller and taller.

The next scene deals with the Hero Twins as cultivators of maize.

In spite of their efforts at clearing the fields during the day, their work was undone

at night by wild animals including rat, rabbit, and deer, telling the plants, "rise up trees,

rise up vines".

They catch the rat (and the other animals) in the act one night,

and the rat tells them where their father's ball playing gear is.

The Hero Twins find the ball game gear and start playing ball,

so the Lords of Hell summon the Hero Twins. The message is

relayed (from Xmucane) by means of a louse that on the way

is swallowed by a toad; the toad is then swallowed by a snake

and the snake by a hawk, which is then shot down by the Twins'

blowgun.

When the Twins cure the hawk it vomits the snake, which vomits the

toad, which ejects the louse, which tells the message.

The Hero Twins go to Xibalba (sending a mosquito ahead to sting the

lords of Hell, and that is how the Hero Twins learned their names,

thus gaining power over them. Upon entering Xibalba the twins

call the assembled lords of Xibalba by their real names).

The Trials - The Lords of Xibalba then put the twins to a series of

tests, putting them in various "houses": (between Houses, the twins play ball

with the Lords of Hell, always winning or tying with them)

House of Gloom - twins sent to hold lighted pitchpine sticks and

smoke a cigar. They succeed with the help of fireflies.

House of Knives - twins sent to gather flowers in the house of knives.

They escape being cut to pieces with the help of ants.

House of Cold

House of Jaguars

House of Fire - as with the previous ones, the Twins survived.

House of Bats - twins slept inside their blowguns and were not

bitten until along came Camazotz (Death Bat) from the sky, and when Hunahpu

poked his head out Camazotz cut off his head.

During the ball game the next day, Xbalanque, through trickery, got

Hunahpu's head head back onto his body.

Then in the final story of PART II, the Lords of Hell set up a contest where the

twins are supposed to jump four times over a bonfire without getting burned

The Twins deliberately jump into the fire and die.

Shortly afterwards they arise miraculously and re-appear as old men.

They present themselves disguised first as dancers, then as

magicians. They kill a dog and restore it to life, then they

kill themselves and are resurrected.

Seeing this, the envious Lords of Hell ask to be sacrificed and

brought back to life. The twins sacrifice them, but don't

restore them to life.

The Twins then give a farewell speech and are lifted into the sky

to become the sun and the moon..

PART III - It is time for humans to appear on the earth.

In part III is the beginning of when the first true humans appeared. The first

four men (called in the Popol Vuh the four fathers, who were also

the Quiche forefathers) were made this time from corn dough.

Heart of Heaven blew mist into their eyes so that they could only see

what was close, thus checking their desires to become gods.

Then the first four women were created as wives for the first 4 men.

Jaguar Quiche (Balam Kitze) got Red Sea Woman

Jaguar Night (Balam Aqab) got Beauty Woman

Naught (Mahuq'utah) got Hummingbird Woman

Wind Jaguar (Iq'i Balam) got Parrot Woman.

They all spoke the same language. And they went to Tulan-Zuiva

(city of the seven caves) where they received their god, Tohil.

They had no fire, and by this time they could no longer understand

one another. Tohil gave them fire, and in return he wanted more

than just their blood.

At first Tohil wanted only men's blood, that is, before the Quiche

came to Tulan. "Bleed your ears, prick your elbows;

this will be your thanks toGod."

Later, after he had given them fire, he demanded their hearts

("their waist and their armpits") also. Symbolic wounding was

not enough. Death was the perfect offering.

Tohil was the Quiche god, and he had to be hidden from the Quiche's

enemies, who were pressing in from all sides. The Quiche nation

held together, but Tohil had turned to stone, and the priests and

sacrificers had to use trickery so that the people would not know.

His image would appear to speak and to command.

PART IV Part Four describes the total victory of Tohil, who operated upon the Lords of the

Earth through the instrumentality of the priests and sacrificers. His dominion, however, was the

reason for the destruction of the Quiche.

The story begins with the priests and sacrificers who began the abduction of the men of the tribes,

and who went to sacrifice them before Tohil. The tribes became aware of this and tried to overcome

Tohil by various ruses and temptations, but failed.

The Quiche founded the city of Gumarcah, and here Gucumatz

(the feathered serpent), a most magnificent Lord, raised the Quiche

Mayans to their greatest peak of power.

Gucumatz could foresee things, and could change himself into different animals.

Among other things he instituted an elaborate ritual of fasting and

other abstinence rites.

Part Four of the Popol Vuh ends with the genealogies of the tribes of

the Quiche "who finally came to an end".
