Well yes we can't completely believe that Ramayanaya was a true story. But that doesn't mean that it could be a myth. You are saying that you can't believe anything without proper facts. Which means you can't say that it was just a myth too. because history is under the soil so we have to dig it more deeper. As much as we dig it, we could see the history.
How much you say that Dhadumonaraya never existed, even though still there's not enough materialistic evidance, I am not going to be quick to reject the idea of Dhadumonaraya. I'll tell you why.
At the time we are talking about, as much as we know there were nothing called Flying sourcers. The first known aircraft which can take humans took place in 1903. Of cource by Wright brothers. But Chinese had the basic technology of helicopter way before even Wright brother's ancestors born. And they used it. If you are a hard core material based believer I give you a good example.
Leonardo da Vinci. Do u know he designed a flying soucer in 1502?
History is what we know of our past and what is verified from Materialistic evidence! And how do we verify history?
1. Physical Evidence Gathered
2. They will be tested according to scientific methods to check thier age
3. Historians will identify them as unique to thier cultures or not
4. Cross reference them to world history to actually see whether it matches or not!
example: "King Ashoka sent his son to Sri Lanka with many others to establish Buddhism"
To support this saying.. Sri Maha Bodhiya still exist, and Archaeologists finds ancient fonts and when cross referenced those fonts are matching to what they were using at that time when King Asoka was ruling.. and also considering many other evidence it is conclusive that King Asoka indeed send his son to Sri Lanka and thus it becomes a fact!!!
That's how history is made... myth is made rather easily.. as for RAMAYANA story there's no support evidence nor cross references! Its an isolated story in the history which has no connection to the history of what we know... more like GREEK MYTHOLOGY!!
As for the Da Vinci's sketches... there's difference between somebody drawing and making it a reality!! People were dreaming about flying from anciant times they even painted them at that time... but no one really made it practical!! Again there's no evidence that flying machine was invented before 1903.. that's a FACT!
So Da Vinci's drawings were only drawings.. A man with a vision.. that's it!! Chinese helicopter was only a bamboo stick which was a bit longer than a Popsicle stick.. they were toys NOT serious human carriers!!
What I basically say is that you should be more open. Just because there's no materialistic evidance to prove it, you can't say it NEVER EXCIST...!
Then how do you say it existed? Look at it this way... if it ever existed.... even though one is unable to see the actual source.... there should be consequences because of it... every action has a reaction.. either the action or reaction is everlasting!!
Bridge here refers to as "connect"..... besides NASA cannot declare its a man made Bridge or not.... NASA is a space program NOT a archaeological institution, besides as your sources claim this is 1,750,000 years ago... so you decide, at 1,750,000 years ago was Sri Lanka and India were as the same geological shape.. like it is today?
NASA only provided the image the rest is as usual people's imagination!
Now here, you have done a HUGE Mistake my friend. I believe that you have a knowledge with basic engineering and physical science. And be more logical.
The "Physics" you are talking about were made a lot of time after Sigiriya built. You are talking about the physical rule called "Keshakarshanaya". The same way a tree get it's water supply. But my dear friend. Now scientist reject the idea that a rock can have a that kind of power to take a huge water amount up to the rock. Yes now you may say at that time British people also pumped water up to the castles. But my friend you are talking about bricked buildings, I am talking about plumbing a rock...So I kindly request you to give some respect to our ancient people who built those marvelous things. "Mystery" is a thing that difficult to understand. Still engineers can't give a proper explanation how they built Sigiriya. They are having difficulties to understand that. Which means, it's no more than a "mystery".
My dear friend...The only thing I have to say is that you are not open minded. You are saying the same story what we hear everywhere. I know very well still we don't have proper evidence. But you can't say my logic is also a false too. Be open....
I'm being open!
Here both of us basically talking the same thing! only thing is you misunderstood the word "PHYSICS"!
I said "PHYSICS" as in general.. I'm giving my full respect to my people, that's why I said ancient Sinhalese had good Physics knowledge, I don't like to call them mysteries..
I'd like to call them solid work of arts based on solid science they knew what they were doing.... mysteries are things you say exist put can't prove it does!!
