Vimāna is a word with several meanings ranging from temple or palace to mythological flying machines described in Sanskrit epics. Reference to ancient Indian flying vehicles comes from ancient Indian sources, many are the well known ancient Indian Epics, and there are literally hundreds of them. Most of them have not even been translated into English yet from the old sanskrit. It is claimed that a few years ago, the Chinese discovered some sanskrit documents in Lhasa, Tibet and sent them to the University of Chandrigarh to be translated. Dr. Ruth Reyna of the University said recently that the documents contain directions for building interstellar spaceships! Their method of propulsion, she said, was anti-gravitational and was based upon a system analogous to that of laghima, the unknown power of the ego existing in mans physiological makeup, a centrifugal force strong enough to counteract all gravitational pull. According to Hindu Yogis, it is this laghima which enables a person to levitate. Dr. Reyna said that on board these machines, which were called Astras by the text, the ancient Indians could have sent a detachment of men onto any planet, according to the document, which is thought to be thousands of years old. The manuscripts were also said to reveal the secret of antima, the cap of invisibility and garima, how to become as heavy as a mountain of lead. youtube/watch?v=qBlwhVyZxmQ
