I appreciate your intellect. But intellect without study of real history (and not the one written by British scholars) does not turn into knowledge. I suggest you and we all should read true Ramayan (originally in sanskrit) written by Valmiki. You wouldn't find any lack or reasoning in anything. Why do we want the westerns to stamp something before we accept it. Yes, look at yoga and meditation - we so called qualified indians are liking it back only after westerns have stamped it. Brother(s) and sisters, please do read and investigate the original stuff before denying. Also beware of myths.
Ram and Krishna existed. Go and read the fact how Akhbar and then British govt re-wrote our Indian history which we read today - using some paid scholars then. Naland and Takhila kind of universities by burnt by invaders. It is believed that 90,000 books were burnt in their liabraries. Those were not the days to photocopy, but to memorize. And now westerners and so called educated indians like me ask where's the proof.
It's 60 years since we achieved political independence, but when will we achieve intellectual freedom - YES, we are still slaves of the west!
