But 108 years ago Talpade was able to use his knowledge of Vaimanika Shastra to produce sufficient thrust to lift his aircraft 1500 feet into the air!rudresh = There were no flying machines thousands of years ago. Please try to read some standard book. It is unfortunate that we have to resort to myth-making in order to feel proud.
the old facts about india is about true practicality and the experiments with them.
there is no such habbit for atleast few indians to unduly take credit for the country. atleast if u think about the advanced mathematical and physics knowledge and the previous research about the metallurgy .......u will not think so....
the old books are scattered few things have been lost and most of such are not able to be understood by the common man.......and few have been intentionally destroyed but it dosent make india or indians not to feel proud.
what i try to say is indians are not far behind to be called as third world by americans or any one for that matter just see how they take indians into their sooo called prestigious institutions like NASA,LM, BOEING etc etc ...
if we cannot understand or recognize the old things no problem (no one now exist atleast now it is all about few sacred men or women) because neither any of us were alive at that time the glory belong to them and no need to exaggerate as myth making. its just about indian bloodline that can make it again if the opportunity called for it
