Guest guest Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Dear Friends,This is a bit long but I felt I just HAD to say what I want to say on the subject.I went through the various links on the dating of the Mahabharat War as submitted by list members. Dr. P.V. Vartak firmly believes it was in the year 5561 BC. Dr. S.Balakrishna writes, "It would appear that 3129 BCJ is a first candidate for Mahabharata war followed by 2559 BCJ. Four other dates viz., 2056 BCJ, 1853 BCJ, 1708 BCJ and 1397 BCJ are other candidates." Dr. Mohan Gupta categorically states, "Therefore the date 3067 B.C. suffers from major inconsistencies and does not confirm to even the major events of the Mahabharata epic whereas the date 1915 B.C. does not suffer from any major inconsistency and confirms to all the major events of the great epic." Sri Yukteswar had written: "At that time (700 BC) Maharaja Yudhisthira, noticing the appearance of the dark Kali Yuga, made over his throne to his grandson, the said Raja Parikshit. Maharaja Yudhisthira, together with all the wise men of his court, retired to the Himalaya Mountains, the paradise of the world.". So it would appear the Mahabharat War would have taken place sometime between 700 to 800 BC. If you type "Mahabharat War" in any search engine you will get a few hundreds of website addresses that will give yet other dates. Many of those who submitted a date are likely to have spent a significant portion of their LIVES in a passionate study of this subject. There are even some who believe there was no such event at all. To them the Mahabharat War was just a myth. Yet, there was only ONE Mahabharat War (if at all) and there can only be one CORRECT date. Which one of the many hundreds of dates is the correct one? This is the $64,000 question. Is there absolutely no way of knowing for certain? Is the past completely hidden from those living in the present? Fortunately, the answer is a NO. The Tibetan lamas refer to an "Akashic Record" where every single event that occured in the past can be found indelibly recorded for those who are qualified to see it. Spiritual Masters who have attained the stage of nivikalpa samadhi can access the "Akashic Record". There is nothing that is hidden to them, all of nature's secrets are revealed, just for the asking. There is absolutely NOTHING in this whole universe that a Master cannot know. These Masters have direct and immediate access to ANY piece of knowledge. All human beings have the power of intuition within themselves. In most of us, the power of intuition is dormant and hidden while in the case of Masters their intuitive powers are fully developed and awake. In every age and time there are always a few Masters present. Where are such Masters found? The bible says, "Seek and ye shall find," Those who seek such Masters will definitely find them. Such a Master can correctly pinpoint the exact year of the Mahabharat War. It will not be correct to classify what these Masters say on any subject as merely their "theory". This is MY understanding of the subject. I am certainly not a master and I may be wrong, but I intuitively feel I've got it right. Thanks for your time. With best regards.
