'Lord Ram was born in 5114 BC'

So, how can we say Ram was born on January 10, 5114 B.C… My colleague Pushkar Bhatnagar of Indian Revenue Service is the real

originator of this theory. He acquired a software named Planetarium,

used to predict planetary movements and configurations. By entering in this software, precise details of planetary positions

vis-à-vis zodiac constellations described by Maharishi Valmiki in the

Valmiki Ramayan, it is possible to determine important dates starting

from Shri Ram's birth-date to the date of his return to Ayodhya. More than just Ram's date of birth… The results have not just thrown up Shri Ram's date of birth; it has

actually traced the entire sequence of incidents throughout Ramayan. Pushkar Bhatnagar starts with tracing Ram's birth. Then he moves ahead

in the narrative. Valmiki Ramayan states Ram was 25-years-old when he

went to exile. When the configuration of planets described at this

point is fed into the software, the date thrown up matches perfectly

with Ram's age at that juncture of his life - 25 years. Again in the 13th year of Ram's exile, during a war with Khar and

Dushan, Valmiki describes a solar eclipse. The software proves that on

that given day there was indeed a solar eclipse (with Mars in the

middle). This solar eclipse and the particular configuration of

planets could be seen from Panchavati (longitude and latitude plainly

shown in the software). Hanuman Saw 8 Constellations while flying to Lanka… In the Sunderkand, when Valmiki describes Hanuman crossing the sea and

returning from Lanka to Rameshwaram, he gives details of 8

constellations. Usually, one can see not more than 6 constellations at

a given point of time. But since Hanuman was flying across, and it

must have taken him approximately 4 hrs to get there, he could see 8

constellations - in two hours one constellation would have moved out

of sight and another become visible. So, in a period of 4 hrs he saw 8

constellations! Historicising Shri Ram. Man or God… After researching on Shri Ram, I do believe he's a man who walked the

earth in flesh and blood. There is an essential difference between the

Valmiki Ramayana and the Tulsi Ramayana. Tulsidas was a devotee who

looked up to Ram, but Valmiki was a contemporary. Valmiki has written

Ram's life-history, as a biographer does - he's a contemporary of Ram,

and this is not very different from what happens all over the world.

Kings have always had their life-history written

"Ram was and is for real. He was born on January 10, 5114 BC," Saroj

Bala, IRS, Commisioner of Income Tax says, calmly, with the assurance

of one who has tangible facts. Taking on the contemporary historical interpretation of Ramayana as a

religio-literary text, and Lord Ram as a semi-mythical figure, is this

unassuming person who zealously devotes her spare time to research in

history when she's not playing the tax mandarin. And she has chosen the unusual combination of astronomy, Internet and

literary texts to provide us a startling picture of Shri Ram. This

might change the way we look at history and religion. We might refuse

to begin reading Indian history from that comma, or hyphen called

'Indus Valley.' We might have to stretch the beginnings by a few

thousand years because, as Saroj Bala says - Ram was born on January

10, 5114 BC. Excerpts of an interview with the lady who has the intellectual

courage to go beyond the obvious: What got it all started… As an amateur historian, I've always been interested in Indian culture

and heritage. I am proud that we're Indians and the products of one of

the oldest civilisations. However, British rule changed us; we

developed a sense of being somehow inferior. But I could never reconcile to theories like the theory of Aryan

invasion to India in 1500 BC. That would make Indian civilization only

3,500 years old. And if you choose archaeology to dig beyond 7,000 years, you'd have to

dig more than 60 metres - something not being done in India as yet.

So, archaeology is not the only answer. There's a lot of objective

research of another kind that needs to be carried out in earnest. So, how can we say Ram was born on January 10, 5114 B.C… My colleague Pushkar Bhatnagar of Indian Revenue Service is the real

originator of this theory. He acquired a software named Planetarium,
