# 72 - HINDUISM


Unlike other religions, Hinduism has no one founder but is instead a fusion of various beliefs.

It is believed that Hinduism started between 2300 B.C. and 1500 B.C., but many Hindus argue that their faith is timeless and has always existed.

Hinduism accepts many different religious ideas, most of the people that follow Hinduism believe that there are many paths to reach their god; even though, they worship a single deity known as Brahman, and have many sects, they still respect other gods and goddesses.

The Hindus code of living emphasizes good conduct and morality. They believe in the continuous cycle of life, death, (reincarnation) and in the universal law of cause and effect (karma), and that all living creatures have a soul, and all these souls, are all part of the supreme soul. The goal is to end the cycle of rebirths to become part of the absolute soul.

Food is an important part of life for Hindus. they consider the cow to be a sacred animal, most of them do not eat beef or pork, many are vegetarians.

The Hindu ancient texts and Vedas are full of amazing stories about different gods, their extraordinary powers, and battles that took place a millennia ago.

It describes gods who fight against evil forces on flying crafts called VIMANAS.

These Vimanas are consistently described as weapons of war. They are flying machines, some Vimanas were made to travel locally from one place to the other, to different countries, some flying machines were used to travel to various planets. The text Describes that, there were four types of Vimanas some were saucer-shaped, others were cylinder-shaped and had the ability to maneuver both under water and in outer space.

These Vimanas were non-combustible, unbreakable, very effective on the offensive and were also invisible to the enemies. They were, able to render enemies, into a suspended animation state, and cause widespread destruction.

The Mahabharata, a Hindu epic, provides even more detail on Vimanas. It says, “The ancient Indian king Salva acquired the flying machine from Maya Danava, who was a resident of a planetary system named Taltala”. The Vimana flew in the sky, rested on the hill, and floated on the water.

There are drawing instructions and detail as to the metal construction of Vimanas, their use of mirrors, and lenses, and the defenses offered by several Vimanas types.

The existence of this text was revealed by G.R. Josyer the founder of the International Academy of Sanskrit Research who said that Pandit Subbaraya Shastry had dictated it to him from 1918 to 1923.

The epic Mahabharata and the Bhagavata Purana is written in Sanskrit, one of the oldest survived languages in the world. It also known to contain scientific information about embryology
