Hunter discovers massive Buddhist civilization

Solly Wise, History All Day via MSN; Pat Macpherson, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Officer was hunting a tiger in Mumbai but found an ancient civilization instead
John Smith’s wildest dreams came true in April 1819 when, while exploring the Indian jungle outside of Mumbai (Bombay), he stumbled upon a Buddhist discovery so fascinating it blew his mind. His chance encounter changed the history books and is surely one of the biggest achievements of his life. More

Space aliens built Buddhist temples? (video)

Ellora Caves: The Mind-Boggling Rock-Cut Buddhist Temples of India
Rock-cut Buddha statues in Ajanta cave
There were no caves here to begin with. How are we to comprehend the 100+ artificial Ellora caves and Ajanta caves? How were they built? By space-devas?

Somehow the massive Ellora complex of publicly visible 34 unique structures has been magically cut out of pure rock, into the side of a mountain, without the use of "modern" technology. This construction would be difficult if not impossible to replicate today.


This never-before-seen documentary closely looks at the intricate Buddhist temple and suggests — as have many archaeologists on the ground — that thousands of years ago, ancient cultures were far more advanced and sophisticated than scholars are generally willing to give them credit for. Who handed them that level of technology?

We call them "caves" but they are much more
What baffles experts at Ellora is the incredible precision, not possible by hand, and extensive layout of the design imposed on the rock. It is plausible that whoever or whatever built these caves was using unknown advanced ancient-alien technology.

Cave 16, the magnificent Kailasa Temple, is notable for being the largest monolithic structure in the world! It was carved out of a single rock.

Ajanta: The History and Mystery
Ajanta Caves, Maharashtra state, India - In the midst of breathtaking beauty, surrounded by the magnificence of nature, Buddhist monastics or visitors from space (akasha-loka devas) must have devoted their lives to the Shakyamuni Buddha.

Stupa, columns, high ceilings all cut out of rock
He was their fully awakened teacher, and they spent their lives in quiet meditation and systematic contemplation, making a virtue of simplicity, soon becoming an integral part of the awe-inspiring environment.

It takes but a moment to enter these caves, to close one's eyes and conjure up the aura of all that has gone on here. Listen to the chanting monastics. Watch the murals and sculptures come alive under the magical fingers of gifted artisans. Feel the touch of Nature and brush up against the past.

It took the conviction of generations and efforts of centuries to create these caves. We owe it to unknown artists to study their works with the reverence they deserve.

Who, what, where, when, why?


Theravada monks pay homage inside (wiki).
(Wiki) The Ajanta Caves are approximately 30 rock-cut Buddhist cave monuments that are thought to date from the 2nd century BCE to about 480 CE in Aurangabad district of Maharashtra state of India.

The caves include exquisite paintings and rock-cut sculptures that are among the finest surviving examples of ancient Indian art, particularly expressive paintings that present emotion through gesture, pose, and form.

According to UNESCO the masterpieces of this world heritage site are Buddhist religious art that influenced the Indian art that followed.

The caves were built in two phases, the first phase starting around the 2nd century BCE, second phase around 400–650 CE, according to older accounts, or in a brief period of 460–480 CE. More

Pyramids larger than Egypt's around the world

Ancient Secret Discoveries, 4/4/19; Dhr. Seven, Pat Macpherson (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly


They are finding these around the world. They're huge!
What in the deva loka are these things?
Larger than the pyramids of ancient Egypt and found in China and all over the world, who constructed them? The largest confirmed is the Great Pyramid in Cholula, Puebla, Mexico. It is larger than Giza, the size of an entire hill in fact. There are others in Buddhist countries -- Indonesia (Borobudur, Java), Siem Reap (Angkor Thom) and Angkor Wat, Cambodia, and in China. The colossal stone cut structures of Buddhist Afghanistan and ancient India (Ajanta Caves, etc.) The ones in Mesoamerica, as well as Central and South America are confirmed, existing for a long time as mere legends. The enormous power-generating one in Alaska (and the more recently discovered one underwater) and the Native American "mounds" (topped off pyramids) of Cohokia, Illinois/Missouri, USA are kept secret in plain sight. Edgar Cayce foresaw incredible discoveries in Bimini, wit. Antarctica's massive structure, with its snow cover peeling away due to climate disturbances, remains concealed. But they even exist in Bosnia, Europe.

Originally streamed live on Oct. 16, 2016
Robert Sepehr has made presentations on ancient history, archeology, genetics, astrotheology, and mythology. A colonial British hunter was killing tigers for sport when he stumbled upon a cave entrance, a rock cut Buddhist temple (Ajanta Caves of India like the Ellora Caves) built right into the rock with unknown technology and uncanny precision aligning with the solstices. Let's enter Agartha, in Tibetan Shambhala, a cavernous Shangri-La with multiple entrances. A Thai Buddhist cave shrine...

After seeing these stunning Buddhist temples located inside caves, we want to drop everything we are currently doing and visit them. The isolation of these sites serves to intensify the spiritual connection experienced by tourists and devotees. While some places of great veneration use architectural height to draw attention to the heavens (akasha deva loka or celestial worlds of great beauty and ease), these cave temples highlight the value of spiritual treasures that lie within.

Ancient Buddhist Caves of Ajanta (video)

Seven, Pat Macpherson, Amber Dorrian, Wisdom Quarterly; Ancient Aliens (History.com)
Ajanta Caves, India: 2,000-year-old caves used sophisticated and unexplained technology possibly provided by Sakka and/or other akasha devas.
  
The jungle from Borobudur
These amazing stone structures are carved directly into the mountainside cliff. But they are much more than art pieces or symbols. Were these stupas (bell-shaped chambers) representative of, or actually-functioning, Die Glockes (time-and-space-traveling-bells, technology later seen in the hands of German scientists developing sophisticated extraterrestrial technology from the akasha-deva space world)? These extravagant monuments were much more than monastic complexes. Note the similarity of stone structures in far away Borobudur, Java, Indonesia and secret Nazi military projects claiming an extraordinary new form of travel, scientific developments which were subsequently confiscated and hidden from the world by Western powers for the benefit of the military-industrial complex.

India's Telugu history (World Conference)

Even as we celebrate the fourth World TELUGU Conference, it is time to work towards restoring the past glory of Telugu's language and culture.
 
Telugu land produced numerous scholars like Nagarjuna the founder of Mahayana Buddhism, Apasthamba the celebrated author of sutras, the reputed logician Dignaga, and others. A university of merit flourished in Amaravati. 

India The Boss (thehindu.com)
The Buddhist burial mounds (stupas) and carvings of Amaravati and Nagarjunakonda are reflected in the Ajanta cave complex. Their empires stretched from India to Nepal in the north and Sri Lanka in the south. 

Telugus gave India the era of Salivahana, who colonized the west coast of Burma. 

Andhra’s oldest communities are said to date back to 500 BCE, as mentioned in Aitareya Brahmana literature. Buddhist "Rebirth Tales" (jatakas) show that their reign extended from the river Telavaha in the central province to the present Telangana region and to Tirupati in the south. 
  
The Hatigumpha inscription of Kharvela (180 BCE) indicates that the powerful Satavahana Dynasty established by Srimukha ruled over the Deccanin the last quarter of the third century. The Mughals invaded these lands after the rule of Chalukyas, Satavahanas, and Kakatiyas. 

Greater India (Maha Bharat) before partition
People in the region gradually developed their language, literature, and culture. Enterprising rulers -- Pallavas of Kanchi, Rayas of Vijayanagara, and Nayakas of Tanjore and Madurai -- were all Telugus. 
 
According to Prof. Dubreuil, the Pallava Prince Mahendravarman ruled the Telugu region; rock-cut temples were commissioned by him in Kanchi along the lines of buildings in Amaravati.

These kings not only acquired political identity but also patronized great architecture. The literature from the time of Hala down to Vijayanagara was enriched by poets in their royal courts. 

Works based on the Puranas and epics by Nannaya down to Ketana, Nachana, Pothana, and Srinatha enriched their  literature. Ships sailed from the Krishna and Godavari rivers to distant Burma, Indo-China, and Java (Indonesia), all indicated on coins that Satavahana and Pallava princes minted.

The later period of Krishnadevaraya, who ruled most of the south with Vijayanagara as his capital, bore a great history that is still cherished. More
