Is ramayana Aryan-Dravidian conflict?
by Raavan on Sep 21, 2007 10:56 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

I believe that Ramayana is depiction of Aryan-Dravidian war which pushed the Dravidians to the southern part of India.
It may be mythology, but there may be some truth to the war that defeated Dravidians.

According to "The Ramayana - Ashok K banker" Ram tried to construct a bridge for transportation of monkey army but it gets destroyed in a Tsunami so he seeks teh help of sea creatures which raise itself to form the bridge and the sena walks on it to cross to lanka and later sea creatures submerge in to ocean. later after winning war they steal the pushpak vimana ad fly across the sea and reach ayodhya in a day..

You dont give any proof for your blind beleif in "Aryan invasion".No historian support AIT not even the maxsist historian(if you want proof read Romila thapar).Furture more Ravan himself was a Aryan who grandfater was involed in writting a part of veda,I will let you know the details later.And to your surprise he was

Brahmin who performed homes(fire sacrifice).

Sri Ram even after winning the battle with Ravan he did not take the country of sri lanka to rule,instead made vibhision as king(ravan's brother).If you know ramayan you must be knowning that Ram did not fought to capture

Srilanka or any south states but he fought the war to release Sita.
