Raavana was never just a devotee of Lord Shiva to me. He was a craftsman too. The Shiv Tandav Stotram is built with such precision that even a single misplaced or mispronounced consonant can disrupt its rhythm. And that’s what fascinates me most. It isn’t merely a hymn named after the Tandav. It is the Tandav. The full version is live on YouTube. Go watch it. Om Namah Shivay 🙏

How the colonial British addiction to tea led to Ming-era Chinese addiction to Opium! The British loved Tea from China --> They were losing too much silver in buying the tea ---> So they started selling Opium forcibly grown in India to China to get their silver back --> Many Chinese got addicted to Opium, and many Indians died in famines due to food shortage as food crop land was forcibly shifted to Opium. Watch Part 1 of 3 today.

The Pashupati Seal. From Mohanjo-Daro. Nearly 4,500 years old. For a century, it refused to speak to us. Then I came across the work of Dr. Rao (yajnadevam). During the COVID lockdown, this Indian computer scientist used cryptography to read what generations of scholars could not. He compared it to the Mahabharat. Found 7 distinct alignments. His conclusion: an ancient prayer to Lord Shiva, carved into a seal. Our ancestors didn't just build cities. They recorded devotion. The British often called it "mythology". But what if it's simply history told in a script we forgot to read?

For years, we were taught that India's Vedic civilisation came from somewhere else. That Sanskrit was brought by the "Aryans". That the Vedic world and the Indus Valley Civilisation were separate stories. But what if they were always the same? What if the Indus-Saraswati Civilisation was Vedic, an ancestor of all of us Indians. Bharath Rao's decipherment of the Indus script suggests the language of the Harappan people may have been Sanskrit, which means our civilisational continuity runs far deeper than we've been told. For 200 years, others told us who we were. Now, the stones are speaking for themselves. Every Indian should know what they have to say.

How did the Macaulay mindset harm India? How did Max Mueller misrepresent our Vedas? How misinterpreted theories rewrote India’s past? Watch the episode on DD News where we bust the myth called the Aryan Invasion theory and discuss the brainwashing of generations of Indians by the British colonial invaders.

When we look up at the pole star, we think it's fixed and assume its always been in the same place. That is not so. Because the Earth wobbles, a phenomenon known as precession. Which changes the sky regularly. Today it's the Polaris at 'pole position' but a few thousand years, it was a different star. Our Vishnu Purana places Dhruv within the Shishumara, the Draco constellation. Modern astronomy confirms this would have been true... but around 4,500 years ago! That was the peak of the Indus Valley Civilisation! Dr. Rao's research points out that whoever wrote those lines in the Vishnu Puran was looking at the sky at that period of time, which is during the Mature Harappan Civilisation! Our Puranas are not just stories. They are the oldest astronomical data logs ever recorded.

Naiki Devi was a brave queen who outthought and outfought Muhammad Ghori and made sure he never returned to Gujarat. India has never lacked leaders who stood between their people and foreign invaders who came to destroy them. Our textbooks taught us the stories of the invaders. Not the tales of our ancestors who fought those invaders. Time to correct this. Queen Naiki Devi. One of India's finest warriors-leaders.

For 100 years, archaeologists & historians tried to decode the Indus script. They failed. Maybe what was needed was out-of-the-box thinking. In 2020, during the Covid lockdown, Dr. Rao (yajnadevam) started working on it. He treated the script like a cryptogram and used Claude Shannon’s information theory. He ran the code: 3,650 inscriptions — all grammatically consistent with Sanskrit. Our ancestors didn’t leave only ruins. They also left messages, waiting for someone to understand. We just forgot how to read them. Until now.

Invaders attacked the Somnath ji temple repeatedly over the last 1000 years. Our ancestors fought them bravely, often to the death. And those who survived rebuilt the temple. This happened 17 times. 17 times. Our ancient culture has survived with the blood and sacrifice of our ancestors. When we pray at Somnath ji, we don't just worship our God, Lord Shiva. We also honour our courageous ancestors. Om Namah Shivaya! Jai Somnath! #Somnath #SomnathSwabhimanParv2026 #Saurashtra #LordShiva #OmNamahShivaya

Everyone remembers Arjuna, Bhima, Yudhishthira… But what about Nakula & Sahadeva? They were the sons of the Gods who created Chyawanprash. The twist: Sahadeva KNEW the war would happen. Krishna told him to stay silent. Imagine knowing your family's destruction... and being forbidden to warn them.

Deep within the Aravalli hills, far from the tourist maps and modern noise, lies a forgotten wonder: the Neelkanth Mahadev Temple Complex, where over 200 ancient temples once stood in silent glory. In this episode, Amish Tripathi takes you to the ruins of Rajyapura, once a thriving temple town, now a hauntingly beautiful reminder of India’s layered past. From the rise under the Pratiharas to the near-total annihilation by Aurangzeb, and finally to the quiet resilience of villagers who never let the sacred fire die, this is not just a history lesson, it’s a story of survival.
