New Vedic Resources from Sri Nandanandana

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

Namaste and Hare Krishna. In our attempt to perceive the

validity of Vedic culture in its spiritual and social ramifications

and present that to others, we have added a new section to our

website called "Recent Archeological Finds Confirming Vedic History."

This is at: http://www.stephen-knapp.com. (Cut and paste that to your

browser for immediate access.) This is the beginning of an ongoing

record of various archeological discoveries as well as research that

validates the Vedic conception or description of history, and the way

Vedic society and influence had spread to various parts of the world.

New discoveries of this nature are always being found, but there

seems to be a lack of an easily available listing to record them.

This information is sent to us in a variety of ways, so we

invite you to send us articles that you may find that deal with this

subject and may be included in this section of our website.

At present, this section includes the photograph of a 40,000

year old cave painting that was recently discovered south of Delhi;

the satellite photos of Lord Rama's bridge to Sri Lanka; the

discovery of a city dating back to 7500 BC; an ancient city found off

the coast of Mamallapuram; ancient stone maps over 120 million years

old; the ongoing research into the ancient Sarasvati River; and more.

 

We are always updating and expanding the site, so new

information will be added as we get it. New and thought provoking

articles to read include: "Kalki--The Next Avatar of God and the End

of Kali-yuga", "God is Both Personal (Bhagavan) and Impersonal

(Brahman)", and "Vedic Culture: The Last Bastion of Deep Spiritual

Truth" and why it is called that. These along with over 60 other

articles on various topics are available.

Also, for those who are interested in the real history and

glory of Vedic culture, in light of the origins of the Taj Mahal, we

have posted "The Question of the Taj Mahal" by P. S. Bhat and A. L.

Athavale on our Taj Mahal section. It is a profound and thoroughly

researched and well-balanced paper on the Taj controversy. It

uncovers the reasons for the rumors and assumptions of why it is said

that Shah Jahan built the Taj and presents all the inconsistencies

why that theory doesn't hold up.

Aside from these, we have also updated our Vegetarian Resources

section, with many more vegetarian recipes, online cookbooks, and

resources for ingredients, non-leather goods, directories of

restaurants, and plenty of information on the benefits of the

vegetarian diet.

Our "Krishna Darshan Art Gallery" also has over 200 prints,

pictures, and photographs of Deities of Krishna, and the other Vedic

personalities. Our "Book of Prayers, Mantras and Gayatris" has 18

sections of various prayers and mantras for practical use and

devotional meditation that you can use.

Also, we now list over 200 links to other practical websites

that deal with topics on Vedic culture, India, travel, cultural

events, news, online books, other temples around the world, and much

more.

All these, along with our other departments of information, have

made our site an expanding place of information and resources for

further study in the area of Vedic spirituality and culture. We hope

you can take advantage of it .
