First to fly a plane

Many years before the Englishmen started writing about airplane and aeronautics,There existed many Sanskrit books which discussed these topic. One among such book is Vaimanika shastra written by Baradwaj Maharshi

Acoording to this book , In Krita Yuga there were no airplanes discovered .

In Thetra Yuga Manthrik airplanes were discovered. Eg: Pushpakam, Ajamukham, Jyothir Mukham

In Dwapara Yuga Tantrik airplanes existed. Eg: Bairavam, Ambareeksham,Kakubam

In Kali Yuga, Kritrima(Artificial) airplanes existed. Eg: Shakunam,Mandalam,Vakra,Somakam. Metals used to built kritrima airplanes are alloys of Somakam,Soundalikam,Mourtwigyam

According to this book Solar energy is used for this purpose.Its a great book on aeronautical science, But it is entirely different from today's aeronautics.Ravana's plane pushpaka vimana is a famous one, If all these are true then How can Wright brothers be the first to fly a plane

LANKA OR SRILANKA??

Myths can be believed or not, According to hindu Mythology Lanka is the country of Ravana, a great demon(Rakshasa). If we are considering the present condition, Lanka is expected to be Sri Lanka

Proof Supporting Lanka is Srilanka

1. The similarity in name itself is a good proof that Lanka is Sri Lanka

2. Lanka is an Island and Srilanka Also,

3. During the period of Rama, Rama and his crew biult Rama Sethu (Adam's Bridge) from Rameshwar to Lanka which is still expected to be there. Photos from NASA reveals the existence of Rama Sethu Still there

4. According to the mythology Vishvakarma biult Lanka for Kubera,Kubera was the richest man with money and gems. An interesting fact reveals that Srilanka is one of the major producer of gems. But still there is a muslim mythology for the existence of Gems in Sri Lanka. Certain Sufi Orders of Sunni Islam (Arabic Tariqa) believe that the gems of Sri Lanka are a blessing that occurred due to the Prophet Adam's feet touching the ground of the land

Which one we should believe...

Its sure that Ancient Lanka is today's Sri Lanka , If Hndu mythology is to be belived then How can a man have 10 headds like Ravana???????
