Guest guest Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 Hello Everybody, NASA spends billions on a project,takes aerial pictures from state of the art cameras,hires scientists from round the globe to analyse what they have clicked,and our own busy Gynaecologist,from APNA MGIMS,Kishoreda,in less than 24hrs,brings out all the facts about such bridge formation,and pooh poohs,all that is said. Well done,Kishoreda,don't know how u managed to get all the data so soon,but all I can say is KISHORE-DA,Jawaab hain. Shyam(84). Hanuman's bridge There are two ways of looking at a problem. Either you make the facts fit a theory, or you make a theory which fits the facts. You can also tailor make the facts, so that only the relevant facts are high lighted and your theory is proved. Ashok's postulate that Hanuman made a bridge between India and Lanka can be viewed from this angle. It is a fact that in the Palk strait there is a line of small outcroppings in the ocean almost in a straight line joining Rameshwaram and Lanka. It is also a fact that the adjoining sea is shallow only at that point. An ariel view would make the almost straight line of outcroppings look as if man made. If only these facts are high lighted, anyone will obviously conclude that some man (or monkey) made this 'bridge' to Lanka. However, there is a fallacy in this argument. There are some facts which have been deliberately ignored. 1. The so called bridge is not an isolated formation, but is an extension of similar outcroppings extending up to and beyond Vallinokam and Vembar, which are far away from Lanka. 2. Anywhere in the world, adjoining islands and land masses have a shallow area in between and outcroppings are a common phenomenon. 3. India, Pakistan (and Lanka) broke away from the Australian sub continent billions of years ago and banged head on into the Asian land mass creating the Himalayas. The Lankan land mass is part of the Indian mass which broke off and lagged behind and left a remnant between in the form of a bridge. However, there are other parts of this remnant. (See point 1) 4. Extensive geological studies have already been conducted on the rock samples of this 'bridge'. The whole mass is that of fused volcanic rock. There is absolutely no evidence that any part of it is man made. Now it is up to you. You can either create a theory which can explain all these facts, or you can bend these facts to support your theory and live in a romantic cocoon of fantasy. Please note that this mail is not meant to prove or disprove the Ramayana. It only attempts to clarify the highlighted facts. It seeks to point out that just by looking out of an aircraft and seeing natural formations which 'seem' man made is not enough. In this age of evidence based medicine, we need evidence based theories too.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Dear Shyam, Thank you for your back-handed compliment. I'd like to say the following: NASA takes pictures of the earth and these are available on their web site easily. They have not commissioned any analyses of this Hanuman bridge. One person has taken some of these photographs and analysed them as per his own reasoning. He is not connected to NASA in any way. Immediately, as is the trend on the internet, 25 or more sites have spawned saying the same thing and are clones of this original site. I have just analysed the evidence and presented my view point. All the clone web sites are saying the same thing, i.e. seen from above the bridge seems to be in a straight line and hence is man made. I have just disputed this and shown you different other sites which have a similar appearance and yet are not man made. My dispute is not with the pictures which have been taken spending billions of dollars. I am not disputing the authenticity of these NASA photographs. What I am challenging is the interpretation. That's all. And you are wrong to say that it took me 24 hours to respond to the query. In actual fact it was less than an hour of internet surfing to locate other similar sites.
