The advancement of science and technology of the modern era is generally considered synonym to advancement of civilization. But the historical and archeological evidences are contrary to this belief. With more and more research it is becoming clear that ancient civilization was highly advanced in respect of science, technology, industry, trade, air travel, civil structure, architecture and spirituality. Pandit Sriram Sharma has cited many examples in favour of this statement; we enumerate a few of them below.
Bhardwaj Samhita devotes a chapter on aircraft technology where techniques for building aircrafts, like the Pushpak Viman and other types of aircrafts, are described. The calendars made by Maya civilization could forecast solar and lunar eclipses for the next one billion years. These calendars show 365.2420 days in one Earth year. The duration of one year by modem techniques is 365.2422 days, which differs only by 0.0002 days, and it is not certain which value is actually correct. The Maya calendars accurately calculated the position of constellations and planets and their influence was considered while constructing structures like forts, palaces, cities, observatories etc.
The remains of Egyptian, Maya and Inca civilization show that cities of that time were very advanced and planned. These cities contained well-designed temples, statues, roads, water distribution and sewerage systems, stadiums etc. Research was conducted and books were written on subjects like languages, mathematics, history, science, philosophy, spirituality, music, etc. Stones weighing up to 100 tonnes were used in construction of buildings in the city of Tiahuanaco (Tiwanaku). The city had drainage channels made from stone slabs 6x 1 ½ feet in size that were better than concrete channels of today. There is a building, having a height of four stories that appears to have been made from one stone slab weighing about 20000 tonnes. A small section of 800 meters of this building appears to have been made from molten stone. We know that high temperature heat is required to melt stone, and this could not be done without advanced techniques.
There are other evidences of advanced ancient civilization on Earth.
- The remains of an ancient but advanced city "Nazaka" in the mountain region of Peru. Drawings of animals and birds on huge rocks 100 miles from this city. One drawing is 300 yards long.
- One 820 feet high stone spear structure on the mountain south of Lima.
- One 330 feet high human statue on a hill in the desert of Chili.
- The Terrace of Wall in Damascus was an international airport safer than modern airports.
- The terrace at a height of 13000 feet in Tiahuanaco was also an international airport.
- Sign of a very advanced observatory on the Human World Island 3600 kilometers from Chili. This place appears to be connected to Tiahuanaco at a distance of 5000 kilometers.
- The Brasia caves in Italy contain wall paintings of space travelers in special suits.
- An atlas of 1800 BC was found in a palace of Turkey. This atlas shows mountains, plains, rivers, seas, islands in various continents, plains of America, equatorial countries, south pole, etc.
- Huge pyramids are found between Cairo and Alexendria. The Chyops pyramid is built at the place of center of gravity. This shows that people had knowledge of gravitation and magnetic forces
The most notable about the people of ancient times was their virtuous conduct and power of extra sensory perception they used to acquire by little yogic practices or otherwise without much effort. All these features do not agree with Darwin's theory of evolution. This theory may be applicable to microorganisms, insects and other invertebrates but not to human beings. The mental power and emotional structure of human beings is so extraordinary that it may not be possible to evolve by heredity. Neither this power appears to be self acquired, because it is difficult to imbibe the virtuous character in the circumstances human beings live in, according to spiritual masters humans belong to the deity family and are their successor. Many wise men hesitate to accept that human beings are consequences of natural material forces and have descended from aerial, aquatic or terrestrial animals. They believe that humans have come from other planets where civilizations older than ours must exist.
Sir Fred Hoyle once remarked that in the light of facts and evidences the Darwin's theory of evolution that starting from single cell organism the present biodiversity has evolved does not appear to be correct. The life is complex enough to be a consequence of chemicals and proteins. Different aspects of life are complete by themselves and they remain so with little variation generation after generation. For example, the fish is existing more or less in the same form for million of years without much change. If humans evolved from chimpanzee then why the chimpanzees found today are in the same primitive state?
The remains on Earth are testimony that a highly advanced civilization was in existence in ancient times. Einstein once told Charles Hapgood that in the absence of enough evidence it is not right to publicly admit but I personally believe that aliens used to visit Earth in ancient times.
The biggest drawback of Darwin's theory is that that the basic character of organisms does not change, it only considers morphological changes. Humans are a different class from their socalled ancestor chimpanzees. The chimpanzees have not learned any of the skills typical of human beings like thinking, speech, writing, house dwelling, storing basic necessities for future use etc. They cannot make any kind of appliance whereas humans have a strong faculty of innovation and exploration; for instance, they have made tremendous scientific progress in the last two-three hundred years. A child of two years becomes like his parents in most respect and this is his fundamental quality and not evolutionary trait. The qualities and body structure of human beings prove them to be successor of deities and not animals.
