Wonders of Hindu Temples
“Tabla” is thousands of years old classical instrument
But some ‘special category historians’ told us that it’s discovery of 13th century poet Amir Khusro
Look at these artefacts made on the wall of Padmavati Pavaya Temple of Gupta period (AD 300 AD) of MP,
You will find musical instruments like Tabla, Veena, Dafli etc.
Fake Historians have distorted our culture, our discovery, our identity.
And best part is,women are playing these musical instruments.
Zoom in and look at the level of our Ancestors' mind-boggling work.
Look at the level of detail, the warrior’s spear is coming out of the predator animal and the second soldier's sword is coming out from the skin. Amazing how our ancestors made such things thousands of years ago.
The Sun Temple of Modhera is a temple dedicated to the solar deity Surya located at Modhera village of Mehsana district, Gujarat, Bharath.
It is situated on the bank of the river Pushpavati. It was built after 1026–27 CE during the reign of Bhima I of the Chaulukya dynasty.
There are many mysterious temples in India, one of them is Gopinath Temple, Uttarakhand dedicated to Bhagwan Shiva. The mystery here is the 12th-century ancient Trishul (Trident) which is 5 m high and made of octa metal. This Trishul cannot be moved by physical force because of its extreme weight but surprisingly if you will press and concentrate your Index finger on Trishul, It will start vibrating. And how this works is still a mystery!!!
(Not sure about the authenticity of this but some one can verify — MS)

ALPHA
The stone carvings on the walls of the Varamurthyeswarar temple in Tamil Nadu (India, naturally) depict the process of human conception and birth.
If the different stages of pregnancy surprise no one, the depiction of fertilization is simply unthinkable. Thousands of years before the discovery of these very cells, before the ultrasound and the microscope, a detailed process of how cells meet, merge, and grow in a woman’s womb is carved on a 6000-year-old temple.

Bhagadatta- In Kurukshetra war, Bhagadatta son of Narakasura fought on the side of Kauravas. He was particularly skilled in the use of elephants in warfare. In Kurukshetra war, he charged on Bhima on his elephant Supratika, which crushed Bhima’s chariot into pieces, killing his charioteer and horses. While Bhima narrowly escaped, Arjuna later killed Bhagadatta in the war.
Below is the beautifully sculpted relief at Chennakesava Temple, Belur built by Hoysala king Vishnuvardhana in 1117 AD depicting that scene of Mahabharata- Bhagadatta (1) seated on Supratika the elephant (2) while fighting with Bhima (3) and his followers(4).
