Mysteries of India

This was a secret society founded by the emperor Ashoka after the battle of Kalinga where nearly 100000 men were killed. This made him convert to Buddhism and he ended up making this secret society. The main purpose was to preserve the books containing knowledge which can cause heavy destruction to mankind if fallen in wrong hands. The books are said to cover the following subjects: Cosmology, Gravitation, Sociology, Physiology, Microbiology, Alchemy, Propaganda & Psychological Warfare, Light, and Communication.

Many people still believe that the nine unknown men exist to this very day successfully guarding mankind against harm. This is probably one of the most perplexing mysteries of India

the powerful countries in the world are fighting among themselves to be the ultimate superpower and have control over almost everything. But some things are beyond control. Same is the case with the Kongka La Pass. This is the disputed area which lies on the Indo-China border and is said to be the home to UFO. After the war of 1962, this area has been declared as No Man’s land. Many UFO sightings have been recorded in this area and it is said to be the underground base to the UFO. Locals have also acknowledged that they have seen these UFO’s which rise from the ground and go back after completing whatever its agenda is.

Some suggest that it was flooded whereas some suggest that the arrival of Aryans brought its downfall. Some recent studies say that the Indus Valley civilization declined due to weaker monsoon.
I guess we have to wait a little longer to know the actual reason behind its downfall as none of the above-mentioned theories is absolute.
