Time and works of Paraś urā ma-Arun Kumar Upadhyay

1. Incarnations in space-There are 5 eternal incarnations in space. Out of original source matter of
world, only ¼ is used for creating universe (puruṣa-sū kta, 3). Creation is transformation of
abstract into various forms. Source is up and created form is down, son it is called Aavatā ra
(descending) loosely translated as incarnation. Creative energy is Deva, dormant energy is Asura
which is 3 times Deva energy. Manusmṛti tells that Pitaras were created from Ṛ ṣis, then Deva-
Dā nava, but only from Devas; Jagat was created.

ruling in Puṣkara Dvīpa (opposite to Puṣkara, 120 west of Ujjain-Viṣṇ u purā ṇ a, 2/8/28). This was
Rasā tala in 8 part map system of globe (Brahmā ṇ ḍ a Purā ṇ a, 1/2/20/9-13). His period is Fourth
Yuga after Kaśyapa (16422-16062 BC). After being cheated by Boar form (mask), boar has
become taboo among Asuras as in Islam now.
(2) Narasimha-Fifth or sixth yuga (16062-15342 BC)-Hiraṇ yakaśipu was king of Libya-Egypt
(Talā tala loka). He was killed by Narasimha (incarnation of Viṣṇ u from west Orissa). He was in
different continent and much later, but being of same power block, was called younger brother
of Hiraṇ yā kṣa.
(3) King Bali was in seventh yuga (15342-14982 BC). When he captured 3 lokas of Indra, Vā mana
(dwarf of child) incarnation took back 3 lokas for Indra as grant. His proper name also was Viṣṇ u
and taught by Bharadvā ja. Many asuras thought that they could have defeated Devas in war and
wars continued. To pacify, Kū rma incarnation explained that unless there is joint mining, there
will be nothing to gain in war. So, there was joint mining. Asuras came from north Africa to
Jharkhanda where Mandā r hill was main region of mining. Vā suki-Nā ga of this region was
coordinator; his temple lies at north end of Mandā r. Later on, Yavanas from nearby region (west
Arab) were expelled to Greece. Thus, names of minerals in Greek are titles of Asuras who came
for mining-Aurum (Oram) = gold, Kerketta (compass)-mapping, Hansadā = refining ores, Minz
(mina = fish) = washing, Khalko (Chalcopyrite-copper ore) = copper, Hembram = mercury,
Toppo = Topaz, Ekka or Kacchhap = persons who built protective walls in mines, Sinku = Tin ore
(Stanic). Devas went for refining gold ores in Zimbabwe (Jā mbū nada svarṇ a) and silver in
Mexico (Mā kṣika = silver). Again, wars started over share of minerals. Finally, Kā rttikeya defeated
Bali based in Krauñcha dvīpa (north America in shape of flying bird). All this happened in period
of Bali who was very long lived. Kā rttikeya period is also indicated in Mahā bhā rata, Vana Parva
(230/8-10) that Abhijit had fallen from pole position (north pole had shifted away from Abhijit =
Vega). Then, start of year was made from Dhaniṣṭhā instead of Abhijit. That is system of
Vedā ñga jyotiṣa where year starts with Mā gha month. Then it was start of rains (varṣā ), so
samvatsara (year) was called Varṣa. Its epoch could be slightly earlier in about 15,500 BC.
From Vaivasvata Manu, Deva supremacy was for 10 yugas (13902-10242 BC). Then, glacial floods
occurred during period of Vaivasvata Yama (called younger brother as in same Deva period). At
end of flood, there was Matsya incarnation in 9533 BC when Prabhava samvatsara started in both
systems-Pitā maha & Sū rya-siddhā nta (Viṣṇ u-dharmottara Purā ṇ a 82/7-8, 81/23-24). Cycle of 60
years follows solar year in Pitā maha system in south India. North India takes actual time of Jupiter
in a sign by mean motion which is about 361 days 4 hours. There are 86 Jupiter years in 85 solar
years. Thus both the cycles match in 85 x 60 = 5100 years. 5100 years after Matsya, Rā ma was
born in 4433 BC when again it was Prabhava in both systems. Persian records also tell glacial
floods in 9564 BC.

For the Indians stand almost alone among the nations in never having migrated from their own
country. From the days of Father Bacchus to Alexander the Great, their kings are reckoned at 154,
whose reigns extend over 6451 years and 3 months.
Solin. 52. 5.-- Father Bacchus was the first who invaded India, and was the first of all who
triumphed over the vanquished Indians. From him to Alexander the Great 6451 years are
reckoned with 3 months additional, the calculation being made by counting the, kings who
reigned in the intermediate period, to the number of 153.

22. Same as (38) above. Ancient India as described by Arrian-
http://www.shsu.edu/~his_ncp/Indica.html
[Excerpted from Arrian, "The Indica" in Anabasis of Alexander, together with the Indica, E. J.
Chinnock, tr. (London: Bohn, 1893), ch. 1-16]
From Dionysus to Sandracottus the Indians reckoned 153 kings, and 6,042 years. During all these
years they only twice asserted their freedom; the first time they enjoyed it for 300 years, and the
second for 120. They say that Dionysus was earlier than Heracles by fifteen generations, and that
no other ever invaded India for war, not even Cyrus, the son of Cambyses, though he marched
against the Scythians, and in other matters was the most meddlesome of the kings of Asia.
However they admit that Alexander came and overcame in battle all the nations whom he visited,
and that he would have conquered them all if his army had been willing. But none of the Indians
ever marched out of their own country for war, being actuated by a respect for justice.
4. Role of Paraś urā ma-It is indicated by Greeks also that Dionysus invaded India in 6777 BC.
Purā ṇ as tell that, king Bā hu of Sū rya vamśa being addicted to vices was killed in this war. The
invaders were supported by 2 kings of India, Haihaya and Tā lajangha. Dionysus is also called
Baccus in Bible and Koran and Asitadhanvā in Ś atapatha brā hmaṇ a.. During his rule in north
west India (Afghanistan, Pakistan), liquor of barley became popular called Baccus (whisky) as per
Aṣṭā nga Hṛdaya of Vā gbhaṭṭa (Ā yurveda source book). Foreigners Ś aka, Yavana, Pā rada,
Pahlava also helped in attack who were later on punished by king Sagara, son of Bā hu.

These tribes born from Kā madhenu are-(1) Pahlava (both in Persia or Iran and in Kanchi)-It is
derived from Pallava (leaf). Musles of a person doing exercise become thin and cords are visible
like leaves. This has become Pahalavā n = wrestler). (2) Kamboja from Hunkā ra (loud voice of
cow). Kamboja has 2 meanings-from Kambu = Ś ankha (conch), Kambuja is Combodia. Kā ma-
bhoja = enjoying as per desire without any restriction. That was north west of Iran. (3) Ś aka-
scattered tribes of central Asia and east Europe, called Sakṛd part of Kā madhenu (giving birth
once). (4) Yavana-Tribe on west border of Bhā rata near Arab, called Yoni of Kā madhenu. On
chasing by king Sagar, they settled in Greece which was named Ionia or Yunan as per Herodotus.
(5) Tribes which were mix of Ś aka and Yavana. (6) Barbara-It means uncivilized. One region was
north west of Bharata, another was in west Vindhya range. Brahmā ṇ ḍ a purā ṇ a (1/2/16/49)
counts in north regions. Same chapter in verse 65 counts in Vindhya region. Matsya purā ṇ a
(121/45) tells that Barbara region was flooded with water of Chakṣu river (Oxus or Ā mū Daryā ).
(7) From hairs of skin-Mlecchha, Hā rīta, Kirā ta (east of Asam, south China), (8) From Khura
(hoof)-Khurada or Kurda. Turkey is Taurus mountain, its king is called Vṛṣ aparvā = of bull
mountain whose daughter Ś armiṣṭhā had married king Yayā ti of Puru vamśa. Kurds reside in its
foothills. (8) Pulinda (west Bharata, Mā rkaṇ ḍ eya purā ṇ a (54/47), Meda, Dā ruṇ a-all from mouth.
Republics-21 republics needed 2 years war each. There was 8x4 years war in beginning and 6x4
years Tapa by Paraśurā ma. Some intervening period and setting up undersea town Sū rpā raka
makes 120 years of republic period indicated by Megasthenes-details must be available then in
India.

6. Undersea town-As repentance for many killings while removing tyrants, Paraśurā ma
performed Aśvamedha yajña and donated all land to Kaśyapa. For himself, he procured land
from sea in Gokarṇ a region with help of Varuṇ a. That was 30 yojana long as per Nā rada purā ṇ a
and 200 yojanas as per Brahmā ṇ ḍ a purā ṇ a. These 2 yojanas might be different-smaller yojana is
for measure of marine structures. In Rā ma-setu, 100 yojana = 22 kms from Rā meśvaram to Lanka
coast. That town was called Ś ū rpā raka (in shape of Ś ū rpa = for cleaning grains). It was called
Sopara later on. In watershed management, it is called Chute now.

Did the Konkan coast from Shrivardhan in Raigad to Vengurla in Sindhudurga host a human
habitat around 8000 years ago? Did that population have well-developed engineering skills? Was
there a unique Konkan culture in existence in 6000BC? A new archaeological discovery, below sea
level along the Konkan coast, could give answers to these questions. And explorers say the
answer could well be a big ‘Yes!’
