Science is one thing, truth is another thing
altogether.

The age of the Pyramids, for example, is placed by
Egyptologists, to be within 5000 B.C., but the truth
is that it belongs to a different epoch altogether
(previous yuga) - some Egyptologists have put the age
of the pyramids at 10,500 B.C. based on water erosion
patterns.  If the Stone Age is placed around 5000
B.C., how can you set the date for such an advanced
structure as the pyramids as being within about 5000
B.C.?

The present Kali Yuga is about 5000-6000 years old
(the learned in this group, please verify).  The truth
is that the Mahabharatha took place in Dwapara Yuga
(the previous epoch), when Sri Krishna Avatar took
place.

It is said that the previous Dwapara Yuga ended after
massive flooding on this planet (the Great Ones had
prophesied that the previous Dwarapa Yuga would be
ended by Water, as it was, and have said that the
present Kali Yuga would be ended by Fire).  Strangely,
science has verified that the Ice Age ended (when the
whole earth was flooded after the Polar ice caps
melted suddenly) about 10,000 B.C - 10,500 B.C.
(please note that the statement made here is: Science
has verified the truth of the Great Ones, not the
other way around - the touchstone is truth, and
science is the "gold" being tested out - if it turns
out to be fool's gold, science should be discarded). 
Science has also verified that the Stone Age is around
5000 B.C. - about the age of the present Kali Yuga.

Here are adiYen's humble suggestions:

1.  To the Egyptologists who believe in the water
erosion theory: you are correct about the time at
which the water erosion took place (10,500 B.C. or
so), but look for planetary positions BEFORE the
12,500 B.C. (or thereabouts) date you have set for the
Pyramids - you may have to go back tens of thousands
of years, does not matter - that is the true age of
the Pyramids.

2.  To the "Iyengar" scientist from India who has
inferred that the Mahabharatha took place about 1478
B.C.: Learn about Sri Vaishnavism first - what it
states with regard to the various epochs and age of
the Yugas, Sri Vishnu's Dashavatars, etc.; using that
as the touchstone, test your scientific theories;
determine when the same planetary positioning
mentioned in the Mahabharatha could have taken place -
you may have to go back tens of thousands of years;
also remember that some novas or supernovas could have
taken place from the ancient past to the present -
this could explain some of the anomalies.  If your
theories turn out to be fool's gold, say goodbye to
them.

3.  To the rest of us:  In the "scientific" age of
today, we have a tendency to use science as the
touchstone for Great Truths - instead, let use the
Great Truths as the touchstone for science.

adiYen,

Ashok Krishnamurthy
