oh.....sorta off topic.........but.......

Prithviraj raso could be fabricated.........it could be Chander's way of making some guy named prithviraj look good.......prithviraj could've been a poor king, a tyrant, or even a beggar.....

I can write a story about my friend so-and-so saying he is great he did this he did that.........but if I lie........no one will know 1000 years down the road...well.......if we didn't have cameras and all that.......no one would know..😆

*Again, not my thought.......just what could come into someone's mind....*

There is a story in Bhagavd Puran. An elephant and a crocodile were fighting. Elephant was losing. Finally Vishnu saved the elephant by cutting crocodile's head with his sudarshan discus. The fight continued for thousand years.
Do you really believe that the fight continued for thousand (!!!) years?

yea.........and in Ramayan....almost every character states that they obtained their powers from thousands of years of tapasya.......

how can you sit in one place for 1000 years and survive w/o food or water....I don't get it....


And when the person gets up, how are their relatives still alive and young....


Weird.....
