I just read the article – https://www.caorc.org/post/2019/06/10/ravanas-mechanical-flying-peacock and thought of clarifying some issues the article has raised.

1.  All these GODs in Hindu mythology were humans like you and me. but since they had superhuman, attributes, they became gods after their demise.

2. Ravana was never born in Lanka or Heladeepa – he was pure Indian and related to Rama.  Rama cut the nose of a beautiful lady cousin of his and Ravana thought of one day taking revenge.

3.  Ravana moved to Sri Lanka and showed some extraordinary skills in medicine, warfare, technology, etc. The term 10 heads refers REALLY to mean 10 extraordinary skills.

4. Ravana married Mandodari – who taught Ravana chess and he perfected it later. so now he is considered the inventor.

5. Now to take revenge Ravana fabricated a flying machine for the abduction of Sita as the exit from India had to be fast.

6.  When you visit Sri Lanka next time – visit NILDIYA POKUNA where Sita was kept inside the massive rocky mountain.  still, the rooms are visible it seems.

7. The monkey god Hanuman is not a monkey but he disguised himself as a monkey to evade capture during the Rama – Ravana war his tail caught fire and the whole area was burnt down and the eventual killing of Ravana.  so Ravana became the bad guy (who never touched Sita) and Rama became the good guy who cut the nose of a princessly lady! every year these Hindu fools burn the effigy of Ravana which is a disgusting sight for us the Sri Lankans.

8. Ravana’s medicine is still used as traditional medicine (not Ayurveda) which is very effective.

9. Waariyapola – a village in Sri Lanka still boasts of an airport Waariya means air and Pola means port.

10.  Bisoskotuwa and Sorouvva are HELA language or Maaghadi (Veddas) terms used in irrigation, the most advanced hydrological society existed before the 1000s of years Anuradhapura era.

11. The racist Indian-origin Mahaanaamer wrote Mahaavansa the Lanka chronicle completely obliterating the history of Hela (Ravan tradition) culture. and before Mahinda’s arrival, pushing it back to pre-historic. (alas!)

12.  we now believe hela/elu (Sinhala / Tamil) origin dates back to millenniums and might have migrated to India rather than the other way about – observed in megalithic ruins – 30k 40k years old in the island.

13. The Brahmins were caste-promoting lot to put themselves on top of everyone.  the Rama Ravana story was created by Valmiki who wrote Ramayana and in fact, states that Ravana’s aircraft has flown a long distance which might prove Lanka was a huge continent even Ptolemy’s map shows Lanka bigger than India!

so you know it’s not a myth – a real person who lived in Lanka called Ravana. Some lab in California ended up in smithereens after trying mercury as a propellent! Ravana’s idea of propulsion is a technology never discovered yet.
