The Controversial Vimanas Theory
To those who pooh pooh the Vimanas Theory, we ask this question “ How come this concept of Vimanas existed in the mind of the Poet centuries ago ?”
To answer this question , we have go to into the definitions of Science & Poetry.
Science is defined as the systematized knowledge of Nature & Poetry as the fullness of generation of Beauty. Both are parallel systems.
Who is a Poet ?
The Poet is he who perceives the Celestial Diameter, Kavihi Kranta Darshee . There is no Philosopher who is not a Poet, na nrishee Kavih. Poetry can survive the Cosmological Cycles, Kavyam Kalpantharasthayee, being Eternal Knowledge.
Why Poets are called eternal winners ?
They alone conquer
The Bliss attained Poets
As their Fame bodies knoweth not
Disease or Death ineluctable !
What did the Romans call poets ?
They called them vates, diviners or prophets. Those noble people conferred such a Celestial title on poets.
The best definition of Poetry
Poetry is divine. It is the center & circumference of all Knowledge and it comprehends all Science.
That is it. It comprehends all Science.
………. And the greatest Poet is He,
Thrikala Vakyam Kavee !
Science knows itself, not Poetry
Poetry knows itself & Science.
Another feature of Indian Civilization –
Following the Luminaries
Follow the Sun !
If we follow the Sun, we will come to know about the seasons, as the Causer of all seasons is Sol, Ritukartha Prabhakarah !
For example, the longitude of the Sun is 288 degrees today, 02022020, which means he is in Makara. He enters 300th degree on the 15th, the Kumbha Solstice. Kumbha will usher in Ushna Kala, the Hot Season !
Hot months, Kumbha & Meena
In this era of Global Warming, we have to be wary of these hot months.
Prakriti, being infinite in Her Wisdom, gives us juicy fruits like Water Melon, Cucumber, Mangoes, Oranges, Sweet Lemon, Grapefruit et al to combat the blistering heat, during the Hot Season. Sambharam, Spiced buttermilk and Lassi, Curd can be taken in.
It is better not to go out during noon, lest there be sunstroke.

Redeeming features of Indian Civilization – Holism
The Whole, Samashti, is given top priority than the parts and the Indian approach is holistic, whether it be in the field of Medicine or in Science & Philosophy.
We are puny parts of the Great Whole, the Absolute, the Poornam. Everything contains an inward determination of the parts by the function & purpose of the Whole. Holistic Philosophy, Yoga & Holistic Medicine, Ayurveda, dominate India. The Reality of Two Fulnesses The Whole, the Absolute, the Macrocosm is that which exists in se. It is the Fulness of Fulness, poornam idam, Absolute Being, and its manifestation is the Fulness of Emptiness, Relative Being, Maya. Poornamada. India instructs man to consecrate to the Absolute, the Divine.
When the infinite totality of emptiness is subtracted from the infinite totality of fullness, what remains is the infinite totality of fullness ( as Infinity – Infinity = Infinity in Maths ), poornasya poornamadaya poornamevava sishyate.
Holism instructs man to identify with the Whole, the Macrocosm and free ourselves from the shackles of the Ego.
The Absolute, the Perfect, the Whole
Our mask of imperfection has assumed
Has made this tenement of flesh His own
He, in His human measure has cast
To His Divine Level we might rise !
Another Defining Feature – Liberalism

There are many Gurus and you can follow any. A bona fide Guru can take you to Self Actualisation. Out of the Four, Mother, Father, Guru & the Lord, Guru is the greatest, Tasmat Sastrasya Siddhanto Brahma daye Guru para. If the Lord gets angry, the Guru will save you, but if the Guru gets angry, who will save you ? ( Sivau rushte Gurur sratha Gurau rushte na Sankara ).
You can bring in your own theories
There are many theories and you can follow any.
You can innovate and modify theories. You can repostulate modified theories. You can redefine concepts.
Aurobindo’s Mind – Overmind –Supermind Axis was based on the Upanishadic Equation “ Energism of Consciousness is Brahman “, Prajnanam Brahma. So was Mahesh Yogi’s postulation of the Science of Creative Intelligence and the Transcendental Meditation technique.
