HIDDEN AGES OF MAN
I am writing this article as many people are asking me about
origin of human race. The evolution theory, vedic theory and Ancient Astronaut
theory are the major theory existing now. I am introducing my view on this
subject , after all this blog is SWAMI’s VIEW, I don’t force anyone to believe
it.
Lets take something about Manu:
The Mahabharata says:
"And Manu was endowed with great wisdom and devoted to
virtue. And he became the progenitor of a line. And in Manu's race have been
born all human beings, who have, therefore, been called Manavas. And it is of
Manu that all men including Brahmanas, Kshattriyas, and others have been
descended, and are therefore all called Manavas. Subsequently, O monarch, the
Brahmanas became united with the Kshattriyas. And those sons Manu that of were
Brahmanas devoted themselves to the study of the Vedas. And Manu begat ten
other children named Vena, Dhrishnu, Narishyan, Nabhaga, Ikshakus, Karusha,
Saryati, the eighth, a daughter named Ila,Prishadhru the ninth, and
Nabhagarishta, the tenth. They all betook themselves to the practices of
Kshattriyas. Besides these, Manu had fifty other sons on Earth. But we heard
that they all perished, quarrelling with one another."
Take the link to have an over view on Manu and the creation :
FLOOD AFTER SATYA YUGA
"Early accounts of the
Deluge equate Matsya with the Vedic deity Prajapati. TheShatapatha Brahmana is
the earliest extant text to mention Matsya and the flood myth in Hinduism. It
identifies the fish with Prajapati-Brahma. The central characters are the fish
(Matsya) and Vaivasvata Manu or Satyavrata who becomes the progenitor of
mankind. In this version, Vaivasvata Manuor Satyavrata accidentally catches a
small fish in his hands, while bathing. The fish is Matsya, who asks Vaivasvata
Manu for life and protection; in return he promises to save Vaivasvata Manu
from an impending flood; and Matsya knows exactly when this is to happen.
Vaivasvata Manu agrees to help; so Matsya tells him to place him in a jar of
water, and keep him safe. When Matsya has outgrown the jar, Vaivasvata Manu
must dig a pit, fill it with water and place him in it. When Matsya outgrows
the pit, Vaivasvata Manu should transfer him to the ocean. By then, he will be
big enough to survive; he will be indestructible, and will help Vaivasvata Manu
survive the flood. Meanwhile, Vaivasvata Manu should build himself a boat.
Vaivasvata Manu does exactly as the fish has instructed and eventually releases
Matsya, now fully grown, into the ocean. At the appointed time, the deluge
comes; Vaivasvata Manu boards his boat and the waters rise to cover the earth.
Vaivasvata Manu calls on Matsya for help. Matsya swims to the ship and
Vaivasvata Manu ropes his vessel to the horn that has grown on Matsya's head.
Then Matsya tows the ship to the safety of the highest and driest ground, at
the northern mountains (interpreted as the Himalayas). Vaivasvata Manu ties the
ship to a tree, disembarks, and then slowly descends the mountain along with
the now subsiding water. Vaivasvata Manu finds himself the sole survivor on
earth; all others have been washed away by the floods. Vaivasvata Manu then
takes on the task of creating the Human race.
Last paragraph shows the rise of a Modern Human race, the race of Treta Yuga…
" After each Yuga , there will be a flood, which will act as a filter which separates undesirable beings from the selected humans to walk the new age "
" After each Yuga , there will be a flood, which will act as a filter which separates undesirable beings from the selected humans to walk the new age "
There are different theories other than this particular
theory, from this we understand that we, the humans were formed from different
ancestors. Some have been formed by experimentations, some by natural evolving
process and some can also be called Hybrids. When the daughters of humans were
married to heavenly or extra –terrestrial beings, they produced half humans who
were appointed to rule (Kshatriyas). The Kshatriya of different origin like for
example, Suryavamshi, Chandravamshi (Solar Dynasty and Lunar Dynasty). The
descendants of the Lord of Sun, Surya was called Solar Dynasty. Not only in
Hindu Mythology but also in Egypt, the same phenomenon is seen. The descendants
of God RA, the Lord of Sun was made to rule Egypt with godly power (Pharaohs).
Descendants of Banasura
Bana is a gotra (clan) of Jats found in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Bundelkhand in India. Banas are descendants of King Banasura. Their capital was at Bayana in Bharatpur,Bagwar of Banpur, Kundeshwar in M.P.. Usha temple, at Bayana, was built during the reign of Raja Laxman Sen, by his wife in memory of Usha. There is mention of BanaChieftains along with Pallavas and as feudatories of Cholas in Tamil Nadu. Bana Kingdom.
The Vanaras
Vanaras are created by the gods to help Rama in battle
against Ravana. They are powerful and have many godly traits. Taking Brahma's
orders, the gods began to parent sons in the semblance of monkeys (Ramayana
1.17.8). The Vanaras took birth in bears and monkeys attaining the shape and
valor of the gods and goddesses who created them (Ramayana 1.17.17-18). After
Vanaras were created they began to organize into armies and spread across the
forests, although some, including Vali, Sugriva, and Hanuman, stayed near mount
Riskshavat.
According to the Ramayana, the Vanaras lived primarily in
the region of Kishkindha in present-day Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh &
Maharashtra, in the midst of Dandaka Forest, where Lord Rama met them during
his search for Sita. An army of millions of Vanaras helped Rama in his search
for Sita, and also in battle against Ravana, Sita's abductor. It is Nala and
Neela a descendant of Lord Vishwakarma Brahma with the blessings of Lord
Viswakarma built a bridge over the ocean so that Rama and the army could cross to
Lanka so it is also referred to as Nala Neela Sethu. As described in the epic,
the characteristics of the Vanara include being amusing, childish, mildly
irritating, badgering, hyperactive, adventurous, bluntly honest, loyal,
courageous, and kind.
Vanaras are a race which was formed out of advanced
biological technology of the Devas. They made half God half monkey beings to
help Sri Ramchandra Suryavamshi ( King of Solar Dynasty) to kill the King of
Lanka Ravana ( Demon ).
The half animal beings are seen throughout
mythologies around the world.
A centau is a mythological
creature with the head, arms, and torso of a human and the body and legs of a
horse.
In Greek mythology, a satyr is one of a troop of male companions of Pan
and Dionysus with goat-like features, including a goat-tail, goat-like ears,
and sometimes a goat-like phallus. In Roman Mythology there is a similar
concept with goat-like features, the faun being half-man, half-goat.
If we consider Vanaras as part
of Human evolution, then what are Satyr and centaur…did human evolve out of
goats and horses. Other crocodile headed, bull headed beings can also been seen
in different Mythology. It’s not that our ancestors wrote these myths just to
pass time; they really feared something… they prayed to some and they wrote all
these down as a historical record.
ORIGIN OF A SET OF PEOPLE CALLED MLECCHAS IN KALI YUGA.
First of all understand what a Yuga is :
Satya Yuga:- Virtue reigns supreme. Average lifespan of
humanoid beings was 100,000 years. The non-human beings were really huge (Giants).
Creation started to crawl into the field. No pure humans is reported but there
is fading reports of humans but not supported with hard evidence.
Treta Yuga: – There was 3 quarter virtue & 1 quarter
sin. First Generation of normal Humans and hybrids started to exist. Time when
Mahavishnu took incarnation as Lord Ram, King of Ayodhya ( Solar Dynasty).
Dwapar Yuga: – There was 1 half virtue & 1 half sin.
Normal human stature was 7 cubits. Average human lifespan was 1000 years. The
time of Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Lord Mahavishnu, who came to aid the
Pandavas, sons of Devas. Normal humans and Hybrids existed. No use of much
magic but atomic weapons from higher beings have been used destroying
civilizations. The last time when Gods ( Devas ) walked with man.
Kali Yuga: – There is 1 quarter virtue & 3 quarter sin.
Normal human stature is 3.5 cubits. Average human lifespan will be 100 years.
Towards the end of the Yuga this will come down to 20 years. Only descendants
of Hybrids, Pure humans of different origins under the same title “ MANKIND”.
Reports of God in the early years of the Era … slowly belief in GOD and the
Vedas is fading.
Suta Goswami said: Once upon a
time in Hastinapura, Pradyota the son ofKshemaka was leading an assembly and
meanwhile the great sage Narada arrivedthere. King Pradyota happily honored
him. Having him seated on the seat the sagetold king Pradyota, "Your
father was killed by the mlecchas, therefore he attained Yamaloka or the
hellish planet. If you perform a ‘mleccha-yajna’, then by the effect of this
sacrifice your father will attain the heavenly planets."Hearing this king
Pradyota immediately called the best of the learned Brahmanas and started
‘mleccha-yajna’ in Kuruksetra. They built a yajna-kunda which was 16 yojanas in
square (128 miles). They meditated on the demigods and offered oblations of
mlecchas. There are haras, hunas, barvaras, gurundas, sakas, khasas, yavanas,
pallavas, romajas and those who are situated in different dvipas and in kamaru,
china and the middle of the ocean; all of them were called with the mantra and
burnt to ashes. Then he (the king) gave dakshina (donation) to the brahmanas and
performed abhiseka. As a result his father Kshemaka went to the heavenly planets.
After that he became famous everywhere as a mleccha-hanta or destroyer of
mlecchas. He ruled the earth for ten thousand years and went to heaven. He had a
son named Vedavan who ruled for two thousand years.
ADAM AND EVE
At that time the Kali purusha
prayed to Lord Narayana along with his wife. Aftersometime the Lord apperared
to him and said, "This age will be a good time for you. I will fulfil your
desire having various kinds of forms. There is a couple named Adama and his
wife Havyavati. They are born from Vishnu-kardama and will increase the
generations of mlecchas. Saying this, the Lord disappeared. Having great joy
the Kali purusha went to Nilacha.
Vyasa said: "Now you hear the future story narrated by
Suta Goswami. This is thefull story of of Kali-yuga, hearing this you will
become satisfied."
In the eastern side of Pradan
city where there is a a big God-given forest, which is16 square yojanas in
size. The man named Adama was staying there under a Papa-Vriksha or a sinful
tree and was eager to see his wife Havyavati. The Kali purusha quickly came
there assuming the form of a serpent. He cheated them and they disobeyed Lord
Vishnu. The husband ate the forbidden fruit of the sinful tree. They lived by
eating air with the leaves called udumbara. After they had sons and all of them
became mlecchas. Adama's duration of life was nine-hundred and thirty years. He
offered oblations with fruits and went to heaven with his wife. His son was named
Sveta-nama, and he lived nine-hundred and twelve years. Sveta-nama's son was
Anuta, who rulled one-hundred years less than his father. His son Kinasa rulledas
much as his grandfather. His son Malahalla ruled eight-hundred ninety five
years. His son Virada rulled 160 years. His son Hamuka was devoted to Lord
Vishnu, and offering oblations of fruits he achieved salvation. He ruled 365
years and went toheaven with the same body being engaged in mleccha-dharma.
Having good behavior, wisdom,
qualities like a brahmana and worship of God, these things are called
mleccha-dharma. The great souls have declared that the dharma of the mleccha is
devotion to God, worship of fire, nonviolence, austerity and control of the
senses. The son of Hamuka was Matocchila. He ruled for 970 years. His son Lomaka
ruled 777 years and went to heaven. His son Nyuha (Noah) ruled for 500 years.
He had three sons named Sima, Sama and Bhava. Nyuha was a devotee of Lord
Vishnu.
Once the Lord appeared in his dream and said: “My dear Nyuha,
please listen, there will be devastation on the seventh day. Therefore, you
have to be very quick that you make a big boat and ride in it. O chief of the
devotees, you will be celebrated as a great king”.
Then he made a strong boat which
was 300 feet long, 50 feet wide and 30 feet high. (In the Bible the Ark is
described as, "Its length was 300 cubits, its width was 50 cubits, it had
three stories and its height was 30 cubits.") It was beautiful and all the
living entities could take shelter in it. He then himself rode in it, engaged
in meditating on Lord Vishnu.
Lord Indra called the
devastating cloud named Sambartaka and poured heavy raincontinuously for 40
days. The whole earth, Bharat-varsa, had merged in the water and four oceans
came up together. Only Visala or Badarikasrama was not submerged. There were
80,000 great transcendentalists in Visala who joined with king Nyuha and his
family. All of them were saved and everything else was destroyed.
At that time all the sages
praised the eternal energy of GOD. Being pleased by the prayers of the sages,
GOD reduced the waters of devastation. After one year gradually the earth
became visible. Under the hill there is a place named Sisina and the king was
situated in that place with his other people. When the water completely dried
up, king Nyuha came back to his place.
Suta Goswami continued: The
mleccha, king Nyuha became attached to LordVishnu and as a result Lord Vishnu
increased his generation. Then he created a language fit for the mlecchas,
unfavourable to the Vedas. He named it as brahmibhasha, or brahmi language,
full of bad words, for increasing the degradation of Kali-yuga. The Lord who is
Himself the master of intelligence gave this language toNyuha. Nyuha named his
tree sons opposite. They were known as Sima, Hama, Yakuta and also Yakuta,
Sapta putra, Jumara and Majuya. The name of their countries were known as Madi,
Yunana, Stuvaloma, Tasa and Tirasa.
After telling this story Suta
Goswami influenced by Yoga-nidra entered mystic slumber. He woke up after two
thousand years and thereupon he said: “Now I’m going to say about the
generation of Sima. Because he was the first son of his father he became the
king. This mleccha king ruled over the country for 500 years. His son Arkansoda
ruled for 434 years. His son Sihla ruled for 460 years. His son Iratasya ruled
the same length as his father. His son Phataja ruled for 240 years. His son Rau
ruled for 237 years. His son Juja ruled the same length as his father. His son
Nahura ruled for 160 years, and he destroyed his many inimical kings. His son
Tahara ruled the same length as his father. He had three sons: Avirama, Nahura
and Harana. Thus I have explained the generation of mlecchas with the indication
of their names only. The mleccha language is considered the lowest language
because it bears the curse of goddess Sarasvati. Thus I have summarily narrated
the rise of the mlecchas in Kali-yuga.

ZEUS AND CREATION OF
MAN (Experimentation Evidence from Greek Mythology)
The Age of Gold,
where the gods of Olympus created a golden race of mortals that lived in a
state of bliss until the earth swallowed them. Their spirits still remain on
earth. (Hinduism teaches that soul never dies).
The Age of
Silver, where a race was created that was arrogant beyond ken and refused to
worship the gods. Zeus hid them below the earth where they still dwell.
The Age of
Bronze, where bronze warriors destroyed themselves.
The Age of
Heroes, the race of Men that fought in the Trojan and Theban wars. Mighty and
just warriors, some of whom were immortalised.
The Age of
Iron, the race of Men that lived during Hesiod's time, a mix of good and bad,
bound for eternal damnation.
Ovid
describes only four and omits the Age of Heroes.
The dominant tradition, however,
tells us that Prometheus, son of the titan Themis, created mankind from clay
and Athena breathed their divine spirit into them. Prometheus is even said to
have created all life there is, his first experiments may have been a little
simple, like worms and snakes, but they got more and more complex as time went
by. Some of them he forgot and traces of these can be found in the rocks.
Finally he created monkeys in all their shapes and sizes, and after monkeys he
created Man.
Other sources state, Prometheus
only created men and Zeus later created woman, Pandorra.
Prometheus clearly took the side
of humanity in their struggle with the gods of Olympus. In mankind he put bits
of all the other creatures he'd made before, so man would by brave like the
lion, but also mischievous like the monkey. He saw, however, than without fire,
Man would remain not much more than an animal, so he tried to convince Zeus,
that fire should be given to Man.
Zeus refused and war broke out
between Man and Zeus who wanted to cleanse the Earth of them. Prometheus
intervened and made Man sacrifice to Zeus, however, he wrapped the meat in skin
and the bones in fat and greedy Zeus chose the fatty good looking parcel. He
was not amused when he found all that was wrapped in the fat were the bones.
Again he denied Man fire and Prometheus came and stole it in a hollowed stick
of fennel.
Next he started to teach man
cooking and firing pottery. He taught them about the stars and the Arts, but
took away their knowledge of the future and gave them blind hope in return.
Prometheus then went out and gathered all that was evil and bad and put it in
an urn he gave to his brother, Epimetheus, for safe keeping. He warned his
brother about Zeus and told him to be careful.
Zeus found out that Man had
gotten hold of Fire and, rightly, blamed Prometheus. Together with Hephaistos,
his son, they moulded a woman out of clay as beautiful as Aphrodite, as modest
as a maid. Athena dressed her, Aphrodite gave her grace and Hermes gave her a
lovely voice and a tricky mind. This woman they named Pandorra, All-Gifts, and
sent her to Epimetheus.
Now Epimetheus, whose name means
Afterthought, where Prometheus means Forethought, was not a clever man.
Pandorra beguiled him with her looks and her voice, and gave this mix of
sweetness and deceitfulness to all other woman. Pandorra opened the urn and all
that was bad escaped in to the world. When Prometheus found out he was very
sad, a last look in the jar showed him that all was left was hope, which he
shook out and sent out in to the world, to give solace to Man.
Zeus wrath wasn't finished for
he chained Prometheus to Mount Caucasos, and sent an eagle to pick out his
liver. The creature returned every day as the god's liver would grow back each
day.
A FLOOD AGAIN…
Meanwhile the world grows
miserable and Zeus decides it needs to be destroyed. He saves a Deukalion and
Pyrrha, children of Prometheus and his brother Epimetheus, by putting them in a
boat before he floods the world. They arrive on Mount Parnassus, where, with
the help of the titan Themis, Prometheus mother, they turn stones into people
and repopulate the world.
One of their children is named Hellen, who gives rise to
the Hellenes, or ancient Greeks.
SUMERIAN ( Another Experimentation )
Sumerians created an advanced
civilization with its own system of elaborate language and writing,
architecture and arts, astronomy and mathematics. Their religious system was a
complex one comprised of hundreds of gods, rites and cosmology. According to
the ancient texts, each Sumerian city was guarded by its own god; and while
humans and gods used to live together, the humans were servants to the gods.
The Sumerian creation myth can
be found on a tablet in Nippur, an ancient Mesopotamian city founded in
approximately 5000 BC.
The creation of Earth (Enuma
Elish) according to the Sumerian tablets begins like this:
“When in the height heaven was not
named,
And the earth beneath did not yet
bear a name,
And the primeval Apsu, who begat
them,
And chaos, Tiamut, the mother of
them both
Their waters were mingled together,
And no field was formed, no marsh
was to be seen;
When of the gods none had been
called into being,
And none bore a name, and no
destinies were ordained;
Then were created the gods in the
midst of heaven,
Lahmu and Lahamu were called into
being...
It is interesting here to note
that no one god is responsible for creation, as even gods are themselves part
of the creation.Sumerian mythology claims that, in the beginning, human-like
beings of extra-terrestrial origin ruled over Earth. Those beings, or gods,
could travel through the sky in either round or rocket shaped vehicles. These
beings toiled Earth’s soil, digging to make it habitable and mining its
minerals.
The texts mention that at some
point the gods mutinied against their labour.
“When the gods like men
Bore the work and suffered the toll
The toil of the gods was great,
The work was heavy, the distress was
much”
Anu, the god of gods, agreed
that their labour was too great. His son Enki, or Ea, proposed to create man to
bear the labour, and so, with the help of his half-sister Ninki, he did. A god
was put to death, and his body and blood was mixed with clay. From that
material the first human being was created, in likeness to the gods.
Thomas Gold, a professor of
astronomy, suggested a "garbage theory" for the origin of life,
proposing that life on Earth might have spread from a pile of waste products
accidentally dumped on Earth long ago by extra-terrestrials.
