rihad Vimanshastra written by Maharishi Bhardwaj is a book published in February 1959 edited and translated by Swami Brahma Muni, which is worth reading and understanding in the 21st century. This book is the essence of three thousand Sanskrit verses. This book has been written after examining it very minutely, it also describes the names of aircraft, their types, various measures for their construction and operation. Hardly there will be any other book in which all this is found in one place.  But it was still impossible for the common students to understand the Sanskrit verses present in it. Perhaps for this reason the book The Vimanika Shastra was published by G. R. Josyer in 1973. This book was a translation of Brihad Vimanshastra. but that's not the whole truth Sanskrit is a living language. Sanskrit is still used in some places in India today. In some villages like Matturu which is located in Shivamogga district of Karnataka. Here even today all the people of the village talk among themselves in Sanskrit. Even today it is difficult to understand vimanika shastra completely because we are unable to understand Sanskrit completely. And another reason for this was also that half and adulterated knowledge of Vimanika Shastra was sold a lot in the market at that time. he recorded it in his book. Mr. G. R. Josyer was the Director of the International Academy of Sanskrit Research in Mysore. in recently, showed some very ancient manuscripts which the Academy had collected and claimed that the manuscripts were several thousands of years old compiled by ancient rishis, Bharadwaj, Narada and others and these not dealing with the concepts of Atman or Brahman. but with more mundane things vital for the existence of man and progress of nations both in times of peace and war.

As we know, at present it is not possible to translate all the words of Sanskrit. That's why it is not so easy to understand this book. Similarly, all the amendment papers based on these books were also published. To understand how planes work. Just reading those amendments, it seems sad that most of the possible words have been used in them like maybe, probably, not cleared. It seems to mean that the researcher still has some kind of doubt on the Vimanika Shastra. As we have learned that mercury is used in thermometers, batteries, fluorescent lamps and it is valid, only if this thing is said in Sanskrit in Vimanika shastra, then what is the use of considering it as a possibility.

European scientists wonder how one can discover the discoveries of science before the discovery of science. But this western point of view should be understood that science existed even before they understood it. Why don't we ask any bird from where it learned to fly so well? What degree does he have? Or has he read about the Wright Brothers? Perhaps only a fool would do this. Have you ever read about squid? Squid are very fast swimmers and use a kind of jet propulsion to move. Squid suck water into a long tube called a siphon and then push it back out. They can aim the water in any direction. We now think there are dozens of species that do it. All these living beings have been doing these actions for centuries. Perhaps, to do these activities with modern mechanical methods, don't know how many lakhs of money can be spent. And yet we are not able to do it with that much ease and precision. Perhaps by now we must have come to know how far behind our science is. We cannot call this the science of the future. This is enough for this century only. If we could know history with complete accuracy, then we would not have the ability to object to the knowledge of that time. Just like the marks made on the sand get erased after some time, similarly the pages of history get torn and scattered, it doesn't mean that it never happened, only we can't understand it, that's why. Just as we cannot make any reasoning about the future, in the same way we cannot make any reasoning about the past without knowing or half knowing the past. Perhaps we can definitely try to find it by going deeper. Not only because it was our yesterday, but also because we could learn something new from it. It is certain that how difficult it would be to explain in front of the western ego that how the science of that time used to work, isn't it? But isn't it my foolishness to differentiate between science! Even though time, people's mentality and understanding point of view may be different, but at that time also the sun used to rise in the east, didn't it? It means to say that even if the methods are different, the principle will be the same, will it not? As time passes, people's understanding and mindset also changes. In every situation, we should leave the effort to find a solution to the problem on time.

    Eighteenth and nineteenth centuries are those pages of history when human science was achieving heights one after the other. This was the time when man was sitting far away and talking without meeting his loved ones. But was this enough? Can a person whose curiosity and desire to achieve more allow him to sit still? Yes, not at all! The person who used to walk on land, the person who used to swim in water, now sat with his eyes fixed on the sky. dreaming of flying. Man started cramming the pages of history. He was looking for something. some answers; Flying in the sky is the religion of birds, can humans do this? Are humans’ worth it? While he used to look at that beautiful moon every day and used to imagine new things to reach there.

    In 1865, Jules Verne's From the Earth to the Moon book was published. Here, the members of the Baltimore Gun Club as they attempt to launch a manned expedition to the moon by way of a giant cannon. Ah terrible! nothing looks like space exploration. From the Earth to the Moon it's Verne's an amusing read that will have you chuckling at those Americans and their obsession for space exploration.

      Since the dawn of human intelligence, the idea of flying in the same realm as birds has possessed human minds. Witness the early Greek myth of Daedalus and his son Icarus. Imprisoned on the island of Crete in the Mediterranean Sea. Daedalus is said to have made wings fastened with wax. With these wings, they both escaped by flying through the air. However. Icarus, against his father's warnings, flew too close to the sun; the wax melted, and Icarus fell to his death in the sea. All early thinking of human flight cantered on the imitation of birds. Various unsung ancient and medieval people fashioned wings and met with sometimes disastrous and always unsuccessful consequences in leaping from towers or roofs, flapping vigorously. In time, the idea of strapping a pair of wings to arms fell out of favour. It was replaced by the concept of wings flapped up and down by various mechanical mechanisms, powered by some type of human arm, leg, or body movement. These machines are called ornithopters.

    Recent historical re- search has uncovered that Leonardo da Vinci himself was possessed by the idea of human flight and that he designed vast numbers of ornithopters toward the end of the 15th century. In his surviving manuscripts, more than 35,000 words and 500 sketches deal with flight. It is not known whether da Vinci ever built or tested any of his designs. However. human-powered flight by flapping wings was always doomed to failure. In this sense, da Vinci's efforts did not make important contributions to the technical advancement of flight. We will discuss about this in detail further.

      Vimana Aircraft of Ancient India and Atlantis by David Hatcher Childress is an analysis that attempts to prove aircraft were in use as far back as 5,000 years ago. This is based on evidence taken from ancient Indian texts such as the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. The book contains the entire Vaimanika Shastra manuscript. Other chapters in the book cover topics such as Atlantean technology, mercury-vortex propulsion, mercury gyros and the rise and fall of the Rama Empire in ancient India. Vimana Aircraft of Ancient India and Atlantis was published in 1991. Merely proving the truth by comparing it with an imaginary story is like denying the truth. In this way, stories again falsify history and give birth to new fictional stories. And in the same way, the western civilization starts doubting the references. Some civilizations claim that they knew the art of flying in the air. And learned to fly like a bird. We will not discuss any of this now. Keeping science in perspective, it is almost impossible. And there is not enough knowledge available about it. As it can be seen in western countries, the idea of flying in the sky was born only some 6 centuries ago. If we discuss only India now and turn some previous pages of history, then we can see that the art of flying is not like an impossible task, but some things seem mechanical.
