Everybody knows the Greek Odyssey story of Trojan Horse.
But do you know its potential predecessor version, one that of a "Trojan" Elephant used in ancient India for the same decoy purposes?

🏹 THE CHARIOTS OF SANAULI: How a 4,000-Year-Old Grave Buried the "Aryan Invasion Theory" Forever
1/12 🧵
For over a century, the Mahabharata and Ramayana were labeled "mythology" by colonial historians. Why? Because "there was no physical evidence of chariots or advanced weaponry."
Until 2018.
The discovery at Sanauli (Baghpat, UP) changed Indian history forever. Let’s dive in. 👇
Indians had Algebra before the Muslim prophet & religion were even born. Here is the Bakhshali Manuscript, dating back to the 3rd century CE. It is an Algebraic treatise.
The Bakhshali manuscript, which has been carbon-dated to the 3rd century CE, is an ancient Hindu treatise on Arithmetic and Algebra. The Algebraic problems deal with simultaneous, quadratic, arithmetic, geometric progressions & quadratic indeterminate equations.
Early Algebra is found in Shulba Sutras, dating back to 800 BC. Traditional Algebra reached its pinnacle in the works of Aryabhata & Bhaskara. What makes Bakhshali unique is it offers mathematical proof to its theories. It also contains the oldest known record of the concept of zero.
The earliest work of “Arabic Algebra” is the “Al-Kitāb Al-Jabr wal-muqābala” by Al Khwarizmi. The term “Algebra” comes from this book (“Al Jabr”). Before writing his treatise, Al Khwarizmi visited India. His book plagiarizes from Indian Mathematics, and it is an obvious case of plagiarism at that.
The fact that Indian mathematicians heavily plagiarised Khawarizmi has been known to Western scholars for 200 years. Henry Thomas Colebrooke was a historian and mathematician. In 1817, Colebrook concluded (page 4) that Khwarizmi owed his Algebra to the Hindus. After carefully examining the works of Khawarizmi and ancient Hindu mathematical texts, Colebrooke concludes: “The inevitable conclusion is that Khawarizmi, conversing with the sciences of Hindus, must have learned Algebra from Hindus”.
Another European Mathematician, Pietro Cossali, came to the same conclusion after diligent research. He says, “Khwarizmi was skilled in the Indian tongue and fond of Indian matters. He translated Indian works. He was the first instructor of Muslims in Algebra. Not having taken Algebra from the Greeks, Khwarizmi must have either invented it himself or taken it from the Indians. Of the two, the second appears to me the most probable.”
The Arabs were invading with nomadic armies from the Arabian deserts. They lacked the most basic education and literacy. Even after their conquests, Arabs continued to live in tents. What sparked their interest in Indian Mathematics? What made Khwarizmi write his work? Who civilized illiterate desert nomads? The answers are below.
Until 770, almost 140 years after the prophet, there was no Arabic work on science, not one on Math, not one on medicine—absolutely nothing. There is no exception to this rule. Until 770, Arabs produced only religious works or simple poetry.
Even after the Islamic conquests, most Arabs of the 7th century continued to live in tents. Even the caliph of the Arabs, their emperor, Muawiya, lived in a tiny shack constructed of only brick and timber. He had no proper roof, and birds were all over his ‘ceiling. This person was not just a desert chief but an emperor who conquered everything from Constantinople to Afghanistan. Needless to say, there was no knowledge of Algebra among these people.

We know Newton, not Swami Jyeshthadev…
Do you know Newton??
You must know, you have been studying since childhood...
But do you know Swami Madhavan or Jyeshthadev?
You wit not know...
So know now.
Till now you have been taught that great scientists like Newton are the father of Calculus, Astronomy or the laws of Gravitation…
But the reality is that many years before all these scientists, in the fifteenth century, Swami Jyeshthadev of South India had written all these formulas of mathematics on palm leaves.
Some of these formulas are such that he had learned from his gurus. That is, this knowledge of mathematics is even before him, but was not in the written form.
Kim Plofker, author of the book “Mathematics in India”, writes that, “The fact is that till 1660, no one knew mathematics or calculus in Europe. James Gregory was the first to come up with mathematical formulas.
Whereas in a small village in far south India, Swami Jyeshthadev had written such formulas of calculus, trigonometry and difficult mathematical explanations and possible solutions on palm leaves that one is surprised to read them.
Similarly, a mathematician named Charles Whish writes that...
“I can say with full confidence that the origin of the mathematical series of zero and infinity is the Malabar region of Kerala”.
The name of this book written by Swami Jyeshthadev is “Yuktibhasya”, which has fifteen chapters and hundreds of pages.
This entire book is actually a compilation of mathematical knowledge of India in the fourteenth century, which has been prepared by the team of the then famous mathematician Swami Madhavan of Sangagram.
Swami Madhavan's this work would have been lost in the dust of time if disciples like Swami Jyeshthadev had not written it on palm leaves in the Dravidian language of that time (which is now Malayalam).
After this, for about 200 years, these formulas of mathematics were passed on from one generation of disciples to another on the basis of “Shruti-Smriti”.
The tradition of Shruti-Smriti (remembering what is heard from the mouth of the Guru) is very ancient in India.
That is why the ancient people did not believe in writing down the entire thing (keeping records or documentation).
The result of which we are facing today is that many secrets of Sanskrit language hidden in our ancient texts are being served to us today by calling them inventions of the West.
Professor Homer White of Georgetown University writes that perhaps this knowledge of mathematics of the fifteenth century was gradually lost because most of the difficult mathematical calculations were used for astronomy and the movement of stars etc. For general public it was not very useful for the Westerners.
Besides, when those sages of India had calculated the calculations upto eleven digits after decimal with utmost accuracy, then there was nothing left for the mathematicians to do.
After a hundred years of “almost” extinction of this knowledge written by Jyeshthadeva, Western scholars practiced it between 1700 and 1830.
Charles Whish published a paper related to “Yuktibhasya” in the journal of “Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland”.
Charles Whish worked in the Malabar region of the East India Company, who later became a judge as well.
But at the same time, whenever he got time, Charles Whish continued reading and meditating on Indian texts.
Which was the first one to tell Europe about “Yuktibhasya” with evidence.
Otherwise before this, European scholars used to deny any achievement or knowledge of India and never used to consider India as a great nation. They considered it a dangerous country with snakes, owls and dense forests.
John Warren, another senior employee of the East India Company, has written somewhere that “The geometrical and astronomical knowledge of the Hindus was amazing. I have seen even an illiterate person from a typical rural area doing many difficult calculations by heart”.
Naturally you must have been shocked to read this, but your heart will not accept this truth easily, because we have become accustomed to believe only what is written in books, history or what has been taught in the last 100-200 years.
We have never asked the question that who ruled India in the last 200 or 300 years?
Who wrote the books?
Who told us false history?
Who snatched our culture from us?
Who hid our ancient knowledge from us?
But keep one thing in mind that it is not necessary that the history and culture of India written in English by western countries is always true.
99% of people think the Bible never changed.
But Ethiopia's version is older, larger, & contains lost books revealing:
• Lost prophecies
• Hidden histories
• Stories Western Christianity concealed
Here's what's inside the Ethiopian Bible (& why it was kept hidden):

For 800 years, Europe has been trying to conquer Russia. And it continues today with Ukraine as the proxy tool for NATO.
Here’s the history you’re not being told.

Shias, "Sunni will go to Hell."
Sunnis, "Shia will go to Hell."
All 72 sects of Islam say that other Muslims will go to Hell.
In 1,400 years, not a single Muslim has entered heaven (by normal death).
Where do they go, then?

Where Annapurna Took Human Form—The Untold Tale of Seethamma. 💫
Dokka Seethamma (
Seethamma realized that hunger is present inside every living creature.
She recognized that hunger is a form of God.
We have a shloka in Markandeya purana,)
या देवी सर्वभूतेषु क्षुधारूपेण संस्थिता।
नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः॥
Yā Devī sarvabhūteṣhu kṣhudhā-rūpeṇa sansthitā
Namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaḥ
Meaning:
"Salutations again and again to the Divine Goddess who resides in all beings in the form of hunger (Ksudha)."
Bhagavadgita also echoes this fact.
अहं वैश्वानरो भूत्वा प्राणिनां देहमाश्रितः।
प्राणापानसमायुक्तः पचाम्यन्नं चतुर्विधम्॥
Ahaṁ vaiśhvānaro bhūtvā prāṇināṁ deham āśhritaḥ
Prāṇa-apāna-samāyuktaḥ pachāmy annaṁ chatur-vidham
Meaning:
"I am the fire of digestion (Vaishvanara) in the bodies of all living beings, and I am united with the incoming and outgoing breaths (Prana and Apana), to digest and assimilate the four kinds of food."
From Draksharama to Divinity✨
Just 40.8 km—1 hour 35 minutes
"Not a house, A temple🛕"
Why To Visit
Try to visit Lankala Gannavaram and spend at least 5 minutes in Seethamma’s house 🏡🙏.
It’s not just a home—it’s the temple of Annapurna Devi 🍛🌸.
As per Kasi Khandam, when Sage Vyasa was cursed by Annapurna, a part of Kashi Viswanath’s shakti moved to Draksharamam in South India 🔱📖.
It's believed that Vyasa visits Draksharamam daily in his sookshma shareera (subtle body) to pray to Vishwanatha 🙌.
Naturally, Annapurna followed her husband, and she resides here as Dokka Seethamma 👑🍽️.
Her house is a living shrine of divine compassion and eternal service ✨💖.

Yet another depiction of a three-headed "Pasupati" or "Proto-Shiva" presenting a revolutionary reconciliation of Moon Synodic year with seasonal year.
- Shiva sitting in Padmasana dons a horned crown marked by 13 lines and a circle on each side, symbolizing the lunar cycle from full moon to full moon across 28 nights. Compare this with Moon Alemna
- On both the hands shiva bears 11 grooves implying that Shiva has deduced that Synodic year is short of the true seasonal year by 11 lunar days. (True year 371 tithis; synodic year 360 tithis, vide infra).
Today in contemporary imagery, Shiva features a crescent moon nestled in his hair.
