MythofRamayan

LordRamamythortruth
ByDr.VivekArya
RamaTheRoleModelRecentlyissueofRamsetuisinvogue.Government filed an affadavit before supreme
court stating that Rama has never existed on this earth. However, on strong opposition by other political parties
and Hindu activist they withdrew the affadavit. Hindu organization like Vishwa Hindu Parishad etc claim that
questionrelatingtoexistenceofRamacannotbesimplyresolvedbyscientificorhistoricalfindings.

Existence of Rama is basically a question of faith for millions of people. Therefore no Government can deny
existence of Rama. But these greatest advocate of Hindusim did not show guts to take on
Government/KarunanidhiandprovedthatRamaisashistoricalfactandnotamyth.

Neverthless , they got support from unexpected quarter i.e Hurriyat conference from Kashmir. Hurriayat also
claimedthatscientificorhistoricalevidencearenotyardsticktojudgevariousissuesrelatedtoreligion.

Hence,whetherRamaexistedornotcannotbedecidedonbaseofscientificorhistoricalfindings.Thisisbasically
associatedwithreligioussentimentsofmillionsofpeoplethereforegovernmentinterferenceisunwanted.
In the mean time some of the scientists, based on astronomical data, have propounded that Rama existed
around 5044 BC. In such a perplexing situation it becomes very difficult for common masses to arrive at any
conclusiveviewregardingtheexistenceofRama.Hence,beforederivinganyconlusionswehavetofirstanalyse
variousfactsregardingRamaandhisepicRamayana.
This article will put forth various facts which will help in resolving the issue of Ramas existence and will strongly
concludethatRamawasanhistoricalMahanayakaandnotanymythologicalcharacter.

WHOWASRAMA?
MaharishiValmikiwantedtowriteanhistoricalepicwhichcanactasguidingprincipleforfuturegeneration.Hewas
indilemmaoverthisissue.WhenheconsultedNaradaMuni.NaradaMunithensuggestedValmikitowriteabout
Rama, son of Dasratha who was born in the clan of Raghu. Here one should remember that Valmiki wrote
Ramayana long after the period of Rama . This facts goes contrary to the prevalent legend that Valmiki wrote
RamayanabeforeRamawasborn.ThisfacthasbeenverywellstatedinValmikisRamayana.
Similarly Mahakavi Kalidas wrote Raghuvansham. This books throws light on lineage of Raghu and also states
various kings who ruled after Rama. So, now the point of argument is that if Rama was a mythological character
thanhowValmikicouldprovidehistoryofforefathersofRama?
Whereas in Raghuvansham how Kalidasa has provided details of forefathers of Rama and his various
Santatis(successor)whoruledafterhim.InpresenttimesvariousbooksdealingwithstoriesofRamaareprevalent
inIndiaandaroundtheworld.Wewillthrowlightonthisissueinthelatterpartofthisarticle.

WHENWASRAMABORN:(basedonValmikisRamayana)?
Theburningtopicinpresenttimesis,whenwasRamaborn?
Before dwelling on this point, first of all we have to understand that our great Maharishies has systematically
divided period of shristi in Manvantars. Each Manvantar is furthur divided into chaturyugis. Each chaturyugis
consist of Krita(satyuga), traita, dwapar and kaliyuga. Present Manvantar is Vaivast Manvantar. Already 27
chaturyugiesofthisManvantarhavepassed.Thisisthe28 th chaturyugiandfirstcharan(period)ofthischaturyugi
isincontinuation.
ItiswellknownfactthatRamawasbornduringthelatterpartoftraita.Hence,ifweassumethatRamawasbornin
thepresentchaturyugithenitmeanshewasbornatleast10,00,000yearsago.Theperiodofhisbirthmaybe
morethenthis.
However, Vayu purana provide us the correct chronological period of Ramayana. If we take Vayu purana period
into consideration then period of Rama goes to atleast 1,80,00,000 years back. Hence we can easily conclude
that period of Rama is atleast 10,00,000 years to 1,80,00,000 years(this issue will be resolved in another topic
BlundersofIndianHistory).
This view is also supported by the fact that when Hanuman went to Lanka in search of Sita, there he saw
elephantshavingfourteeth . Hence this is now for archeiologist/biologist to ascertain when did such elephants
existedonearth?(ThecalculationsofchaturyugieswillbedealtinanothertopicAgeofpresentshristi.
Whereas difficulties encountered in establishing chronological correctness of historical events for period before
Christwillbedealtinblundersofhistory).AnotherinterestingfactthathasbeenmentionedinValmikiRamayana
is that the paternal home of Bharat and Shatrughan was in a country where mode of transportation was vehicle
beingcarriedbydogsordeer.WhenboththebrothersreturnedtoAyodhyafromtheirmaternalhometheycrossed
manyplacescoveredbysnowandwerewearingwollenclothes.Whichplacedoesthisepisodepointstohastobe
ascertained.
By our logic it is Russia, as phonetically Russia sounds like misnomer of Rishi (this has been established in our
articleblunderofIndian/Worldhistory)Abovementionedfactsclearlygiveusaninsightintotheperiodwhenwas
Rama born. So those who claim that Rama is only a mythological character we are providing them some more
proofswhichwillestablishthatbeforetheadventofChristinityandIslamRamawasreveredthroughtouttheworld

12)RAMAYANAINIRAN:
In Hyderabad city, capital of Andhra Pradesh, there is museum name Salarjung. There one portrait which is

about a peculiar belief among Muslims, spread from Afganistan to Morocco and Algeria. These Muslims believed
that members of imperial house of Trebizond were endowed with short tails while mediavel continentals had like

belief of Greeks, viz., 'the sense of many gods are there near at hand' to various gods, to their names, to the

yet it is said 'In the seventh century BC India was divided into sixteen Mahajanapadas...' as per "An Historical
Atlas of Indian Peninsula", Oxford. Peculiarly those sixteen Janapadas did not contain the names of Yavana,
Shakaprovincesinatlases.

'The Greeks, evidently descended from tribes who had come westwards from the

where another approach can be seen, which just does not revolve around one or
two names of places. It is said there 'Therefore, Ramayana 'must have' occurred
9600 years ago, which is 7600 B.C approximately...' which again is disputable
because this is goining against the Yuga and Kalpa Theory of Puraanas, as

there is no bother from them. Ramayana's gods are purely Vedic, unlike the later
time, rather modern or artificial literary period's poetry of Kalidasa et al, and their
puranic deities like Kali, Uma, and Kumara etc. The literary style of Ramayana is
mostlyunPaninian.IthastheepisodeslikeRamaJaabaalisamvaada,whereSage

MythofRamayan

ThisarticleoriginallyappearedintheUKValmikicommunitysmonthlynewsletternamedTheService[EditorMohan
Lal alias Gardash Bharti] in the early 1980s under the title Bhagwan Valmik Ji Our Pathfinder. The original
articlewassubsequentlypublishedonhttp://www.bhagwanvalmiki.combutunfortunatelythepublicationcontained
a number of spelling and other errors. It has also been felt that this article needed to be updated in the light of
latest discoveries in India history. The late Julia Leslie in her magnum opus Authority and Meaning in Indian
Religions the Case of Valmik1 based entirely on Hindu theological texts, surprisingly come to very similar
conclusions as this article, which was written a couple of decades before her work. We are grateful to Mr Mohan
Lalforpermissiontoeditandpublishthisarticle.[Editor]

The life and times of Guru Valmik Ji are shrouded in history. Ancient Indian history, lacking authentic recorded
material and frequently archaeological artefacts, present us with a particular problem when analysing the period
of Aryan expansion into India. History, if one can call it history, was 'recorded' by the victorious Aryans who
naturallydepreciatedtheindigenousnonAryans.'Recorded'isnotperhapstherightphrase,asmostoftheHindu
texts were first orally transmitted and later after hundreds of years, written down with many layers, distortion,
mythical symbolism and sometimes with inverted truth. There is much chaff and little wheat in the classical Hindu
texts but nevertheless it is still possible to piece together the life and mission of Guru Valmik JI from fragmentary
evidenceoftheancienttextsaswellasmodernarchaeologicalandhistoricaldiscipline

theirpresentformsbearonlyalittleresemblancetotheiroriginalform.WeknewforafactthatpartsofRamayana
were later deleted, distorted and added to by the inventive Brahmin priests and writers. As an example in all
Brahminical texts, Brahmins are naturally asked to be honoured even though they should be without merit. This
toowastheopinionofthemedievalHinduholymanTulsiDaswhodidnotwanttheSudratobehonouredeven
though the Sudra had merit. Nevertheless Guru Ravidas took the opposite viewpoint to that of Tulsi Das. Guru
RavidassutterancewasinlinewithwhathadbeensaidintheYogaVsisthamanycenturiespreviously,whichwas
thatachildwithtruthwastobebelievedandevenBrahmawasnottobebelievedifuntruthful.Accordingtothe
MoksopayaProjectinGermanywhohaveexaminedanumberofYogaVsishtamanuscripts,anumberofBuddhist
ideas had been removed from the subject texts. If this is correct, then a philosophical link between Guru Valmik,
Buddha and Guru Ravidas is clearly established, notwithstanding the fact that Guru Ravidas can certainly be
linkedtotheBuddhistsviatheNathaSidhatradition.

FromthelateLekhRajManjdadriasprcisaboutYogaVshistha 2 :

Firstly there is the introduction of frame stories that emphasises the "orthodox" brahmanical ideology, this
particular feature is absent in the MU (Moksopaya) and as such considered not to be the works of the orthodox
tradition. Secondly there is the insertion of chapters emphasising Rama

againstSruti,theVedasandrituals,bychangingtheoriginalwording.Fourthly,thereistheobviousandcomplete

The original author endorses his authoritativeness on the contents of his works that claim a human authorship
(pauruseyam idam sastram) and dismisses any authoritative scripture that lacked reasoning (vicara) and rational
arguments (yukti). Here the text makes clear reference that the reasoned statements of even a child or women

of even a child must be accepted, if it is based on reasonable arguments. Any other should be dismissed like

Another example of Brahminical distortion is that Valmik himself praised Ravana on several occasions 'Ravana

ValmikHistoricalSetting

Aroundabout1500BCthenomadicbarbarianAryansenteredN.W.Indiaandoverrantheremnantsofanalready
ancient, and decayed civilisation later known in the 20th century as the Indus Valley Civilization. This civilization
was renowned for many features it gave to the Indian society e.g. international trade, architecture, drainage
system, waterlocks, trade, system of standard weights and measures, granaries, written script, astronomy
(thenakshatryasystem) medicine, Lokayata philosophy etc. The first 10 mandalas (chapters) of the Rigveda are
filled with descriptions of battle between the Aryans and the non Aryans people. Historians remain divided on

possibilitythatthereweremanyValmiksinthefashionofSikh Gurus with each succeeding Guru signed himself

successful fight against the Aryans, but were eventually overpowered. Just as the line of Sikh Gurus ended with

RiddlesofRamayana

According to Valmik, Rama is not a reincarnation of the God Vishnu. This idea was later introduced in the
Ramayana.Ramaisanordinarymortalwholies,cheats,hasnoscruples,doublecrossesandusespeoplewhere

Ambedkar in his controversial Riddles in Hinduism9 questions the many contradictions surrounding both Rama
and Krishna. Valmik in the true fashion of an epic poet was accurately describing the changes that were taking

WherewasRavana'sLanka?

ButquestionmaybeaskedwhatconnectiontribesmenofWesternOrissa have with Ramayana? It can be safely

concludedthatLankaofRamayanaisnottheSriLanka,Ceylonofthepresentday.Ceylonusedtobeknownas

Ravana's country was referred to as Tamraparni or Singhla. In Bal Ramayana itself on the occasion of Sita's

has the following characteristics which could be relevant to any site which may be considered a candidate for
prototypeLanka.

The site is very ancient, with the continuation of culture from very old times. Asurgahr was also known as Udit
Sagar and had unique water management system. Water was used for multiple purposes e.g. agriculture and
defense. Control of water made it possible for considerable progress in social, economic and political power.
Related to this was the religious life based on worship of the female principal. Female fertility figurines had been
foundatsiteandthesitewasprobablyacenterforSaktacult.Asurgarhalsocontrolledtraderoutes.Ariverflowed

ItisalsopossiblethattherewasnotasingleLankabutanyhydraulicallydefendedstrongholdcouldbedescribed

So it appears that Ravana far from being a demon was probably a prototype ruler of the autochthones. Valmik
himselfextolsthevirtuesofRavana.AccordingtotheRamayana,Ravanawasabravefighter,chivalrous,sincere
andwelllearned.WeknowhowtheAryanseerslabelledtheindigenouspeopleasmonstersanddemons.Ifwe

not any land but cleared and fertile land which could be put under the plough. Therefore the characters in the

Yajna. Later Brahmin writers would try to hide the facts that Rama himself may have been defeated by Valmik.
Valmiks protgs Lav and Kush were not defeated by the imperial army. According to Julia Leslie, Valmik was
accusedofbeingatleastaBrahminkiller.MostprominentscholarsagreethatlastKhandofRamayanaappearsto
be a forgery which has neither the literary merit nor the style of the bulk of the rest of Ramayana. The Brahmins
tried to vilify Valmik by calling him a petty bandit who achieved salvation by inadvertently reciting the name of
Rama!ThischeekisinlinewiththeBrahminicalprocessofinvertingthetruth.

People who have no sense of the history cannot create their own future. Adopting an unhistorical outlook can
lead one astray as detailed on the following website

13http://www.badarchaeology.net/political/ram.php in which

the natural coral between Sri Lanka was seized upon as the mythological Ram Setu bridge, something that
even NASA was forced to deny. But at least one piousDalitwebsite fell into the high caste trap and ended up
linkingthisbadhistorywiththenameofValmik.
