Ram Katha Sitaron Se Suniye

bySaroj Bala,Dinesh Chandra Agarwal

Astronomical and archaeological evidence placed alongside Valmiki's Ramayana to date and locate key events in Ram's life.

Overview

Valmiki's Ramayana contains precise astronomical references — specific planetary positions that accompanied the key events in Ram's life. Saroj Bala and Dinesh Chandra Agarwal take those references seriously and use modern planetarium software to date them, reconstructing the sky as it would have appeared at the time of Ram's birth, when five planets were simultaneously in exalted positions.

The book weaves celestial evidence directly into the narrative of the Ramayana, allowing readers to encounter the epic alongside the actual astronomical record. It also presents archaeological findings from below the Babri Masjid site — copper arrowheads dated approximately 7,000 years old, gold and silver ornaments, terracotta vessels, and botanical remains — alongside photographs and analysis that the authors argue point to the physical reality of an ancient Ram temple at the location. A dedicated section examines Ram Setu with documented evidence on its origins.

This is scholarship aimed at readers who want to engage with the Ramayana not just as literature but as a historically situated account, interpreted through science, archaeology, and astronomy.

राम कथा सितारों से सुनिए पुस्तक में महर्षि वाल्मीकि द्वारा रचित श्रीराम की मूल जीवन गाथा में दिए गए घटनाक्रम को बताते हुए उनके जीवन की महत्वपूर्ण घटनाओं की वास्तविक तिथियों के समय देखे गए आकाशीय दृश्यों को इस प्रकार बुन दिया गया है कि वो चरितावली में अंतर्निहित हो गए। पाठक यह देखकर आनंदित हो सकते हैं कि जब श्रीराम का जन्म हुआ था तो पांच ग्रहों को अपने अपने उच्च स्थान में दर्शाते हुए आकाश किस प्रकार सुंदर और चमकदार दिखाई दे रहा था।पढ़ें बाबड़ी मस्जिद के नीचे मिले प्राचीन भव्य राम मंदिर के प्रमाण, चित्रों सहित 7000 वर्ष पुराने ताम्बे के वाणाग्र सोने चाँदी के आभूषण बहुमूल्य पत्थरों व मोतियों के गहने टैराकोटा के बर्तन व अन्य वस्तुएँ तथा विभिन्न प्रकार के पेड़ पौधे व फसलों के चित्र भी इस पुस्तक में शामिल हैं। रामसेतु के विषय में कुछ अद्भुत तथ्य भी जानें। यह पुस्तक सरोज बाला तथा दिनेश अग्रवाल जी का सराहनीय प्रयास है। पढ़ने में आनंद अवश्य आएगा ।

Saroj Bala A distinguished officer of the Indian Revenue Service, who retired as a Member of Central Board of Direct Taxes, Smt. Saroj Bala immersed herself in the multi-disciplinary scientific research to ascertain the historicity and antiquity of Vedas and Epics. She remained a Director of Institute of Scientific Research on Vedas (I-SERVE, founded in 2004) from 2009-2017. Her first book "Historicity of Vedic and Ramayan Eras: Scientific Evidences from the Depths of Oceans to the Heights of Skies", published in 2012, earned her a degree of Doctor of Science from Guru Jambeshwar University of Science & Technology, Hisar. The research was undertaken by her under the guidance of Dr A P J Abdul Kalam.In October 2018, her book "Ramayan ki Kahani, Vigyan ki Jubani' was released, a copy of which was later presented by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath to our Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. Thereafter, her book 'Ramayan Retold with Scientific Evidences' was released on 5th February 2019; and was discussed in the opening session of the Times Litfest in November 2019.The author's research methodology is simple, detailed, credible and unique. She extracts all astronomical references sequentially and then generates the corresponding sky-views using Planetarium software. Evidence from archaeology and archaeo-botany, geography and geology, oceanography and remote sensing, etc. is, thereafter, correlated with astronomical date sequence.
