Ram Setu?

I was watching closely the different arguments and discussions about
the 'RAMSETU" in papers and people reactions about it. Yes it is really
interesting to know who built it. Was it Vanara sena or was it a
natural formation.
Yes I too felt bad when a question was raised about the 'astitva' of
Sri Rama. We are from our childhood told about his great deeds and it
is in our blood.

Some of the questions that i was trying to find out are

1. What kind of proof ASI is looking for to prove that SriRam is not a mythical character.

2. Why after so many centuries this kind of question should be raised?

3. If ram setu was not built by Ram as said by Valmiki, how he came to
know about it ? Was it a raised formation during the Valmikis period?

4. If chainese can build a wall (Great Wall of Chaina) with the
technologies available at that time is it not possible for ram to build
such setu?

5. There are so many unexplained structures like Great Stonehenge, INCA
lines etc which were constructed. How these constructions were made and
what kind of technologies are available to them? A similar tecnology
might have enabled Sri Ram to make such a setu.

All those who read Ramayana will agree with me that Valmiki has 
extensive geographical knowledge and techinical knowledge available
during his time. And I feel that knowledge our ancesters has is far
better that what we do have now!! (my personal openion many may not
agree to this). Lets not forget all the scriptures are sources of high
level knowledge and is a result of constant probing of the fundamental
questions raised again and again by people of all religions.



I fell this whole issue is more of a political game than endevour to know the truth.

I dont know whether Ram really existed or not in treta yuga but he exists in the hearts of all of us.

WHat do u say??
