You are currently listening to Vedify from Viswa Vikasam, and I'm Satya. This brand-new podcast investigates the topics discussed in the Vedas and other ancient books that are still accessible today.

We begin the mythology, its conflicts, and the surrounding facts in this episode.

Ology means “Study Of” and Myth means a Story about a supernatural being. So, Mythology is the study of supernatural beings. Every culture has its own mythology like greek mythology, Hindu mythology etc.

Let's contrast with actual events. Most people are born in one city and raise their families elsewhere. Right? Imagine returning to your hometown in 20 or 30 years. As you can see, most locations have been improved, making it difficult for you to locate specific locations, structures, or other items. Typically, we approach the locals and ask them. Some claim it was altered, while others claim they are unsure.

Have you ever encountered this?

Think of returning to your city in 100 years. Most likely not at this time. But consider this. Much more variations will be visible at the same location, and the typical responses are "don't know." Thus, the location or object begins to grow storied. Consider that after you visit the location, someone will discover that the location or thing has been documented. They start debating that location. Conflict is what this is.

We are now discussing events from 100 years ago. Consider that the tale we are discussing dates back at least 5000 years. More confrontations occur. Some people do believe them and some people do not.

Let's look at the main disputes mentioned in Hindu mythology. Saraswathi River was one of the most contentious and debated mythological topics. From the time of the Rig Veda until the Ramayana, the River Saraswathi was referenced. The River Saraswathi mentioned in our ancient texts was really debunked as a hoax. But in the early 1980s, we discovered that Saraswathi existed and had been in good health up until 4,500 BCE, then it was begun to dry.

I assume that everyone is aware of this. Let's take a closer look at one more misconception. That river is the Ganga. She was described as streaming westward in the Rigveda. But in fact it is migrating eastward at the moment. Let's look at the options here. There are two possibilities: either Ganga was omitted entirely from the "Nadi Stuti" list provided by Westword River, or it was. In essence, it was thought of as Himalayan rivers that were floating. If it had been travelling westward, something would have happened, forcing her to veer to the east.

I'm going to focus on the second one in this case. Prior to reading Ramayana Aranya Kanda, I first believed that our sages would have referred to the Ganga as a river coming from the Himalayas. When Rama, Seeta, and Lakshmana departed the forest, Prices Bharatha was at the Kekaya Kingdom. Bharatha was launched from Kekaya after messengers delivered the distressing news. He crossed the Ganga and Satlej Rivers on His journey from Kekaya to Ayodhya. The most significant fact is that he even crossed the current Ganga.

This demonstrates unequivocally that the River Ganga was flowing towards the west when, as a result of various geological changes, she shifted to the east. I don't wish to discuss the King Bhageeratha Story at this time. Due to the fact that the exact truth was unknown.
