Scientific refferences in Mahabharata part - 4
*A very beautiful philosophy using the metaphor of moon and earth* is told by Vyasa in Mahabharata. Now let's know more about this.
Vedavyas wrote in Mahabharata that the spots on the surface of the moon are the map of the entire earth.
🚩 यथा हि पुरुषः पश्येदादर्शे मुखमात्मानः |
एवं सुदर्शनद्वीपो दृश्यते चन्द्रमण्डले ||१६ || 🚩
Just as a man looks at his face in a mirror, i.e. sees a reflection, *Sudarshan Dwipa (The Earth ) is seen on the moon* (its reflection is seen on the moon) i.e. a *reflection* of the land on earth is seen.
Let's see the next verse about it
🚩द्विरंशे पिप्पलस्तत्र द्विरंशे च शशो महान् |
सर्वौषधिसमावायः सर्वतः परिवारितः ||१७ ||🚩
Pimpal (pimpal leaves) is seen in *two degrees and rabbit* in two degrees. There are herbs on all sides of it.
Let's see the interpretation of this. We know that the spot that appears on the surface of the moon looks like the shape of a rabbit. As if imagining that there is a rabbit on the moon's lap, the moon is called *Shashanka* (anka means lap) Now the picture of this rabbit is the map of the whole earth. If you look at the unified map of the entire earth on Google, it looks like a rabbit and a lotus leaf. I have sent pictures along with this article.
*Bhishma Parva Jambukhandvinirmanparva chapter no. 5*
🚩 (स वै सुदर्शनद्वीपो दृश्यते शशवद् द्विधा )
यां तु पृच्छसि मां राजन् दिव्यामेतां शशाकृतिम्
पार्श्वे शशस्य द्वे वर्षे उक्ते ये दक्षिणोत्तरे
कर्णौ तु नागद्वीपश्च काश्यपद्वीप एव च 🚩
This is how I described Sudarshan Dwipa (The Earth ). That island is the image of the earth divided into two parts and we see it in the form of spots (rabbit shape) on the moon. *The two islands named (Bharat and Airavat) located in the south and north direction are both the flanks of that rabbit. Nagadvipa and Kasyapadvipa are the two ears of that rabbit.*
🚩आपस्ततोSन्या विज्ञेयाः शेषः संक्षेप उच्यते ||१८ ||🚩
Apart from this land, the rest of the land should be considered as water. There is also a clear description. Maharishi Vyasa had the exact knowledge of all the continents of the earth, their extent and the rest of the water. *Describing all the continents like North America, South America, Europe, Africa, and their sizes, how would Ved Vyas have described them?*
In order to describe the shape of all these continents, they have to be seen from above i.e. from the sky or space. Nowadays, with the help of satellites in space, we can create accurate maps. 2 In order to know the entire geographical situation of the earth, it is necessary to *circulate the earth*. That means Vedavyas must have circumnavigated the earth. *To get an idea of the size of the continents, you have to go up and see them.* This means *Vedavyas must have gone to the sky or space by sitting in a plane-like machine* because during the Mahabharata period (5000 years B. C. ) Airplanes EXISTED. If this is not acceptable, then we have to accept how much Indian yoga science was advanced that *Ved Vyas having obtained all the information through yoga force in microscopic form.* If asked such a question, *Ved Vyas should proudly say that he has given detailed information about this map in his book Mahabharata*.
*In the discourses of the Mahabharata only the story of Kaurava's and Pandav's is told. It is our tragedy that the scientific references in Mahabharata do not come to light*
