Myth

A number of claims are made saying that Indians knew & used the science & technology.
It is a matter of pride if the claims are true.
But unless one brings such gadgets, machines or devices using ancient technology it has no value more than a myth

India must dump rational science and engineering textbooks for Vedas so that isro and DRDO may start manufacturing better aircrafts and rocket for space explorations! Pity this discovery happenedthis late..or else we could have put man on the moon long ttime ago.

You are entitled to have your own tastes in sarcasm.

Personally, I worry that what the original poster said about textbooks may actually happen.

Stuff like this has happened to other countries. It may be our turn to follow the path of Lysenko, the Cosmic Ice theory and the Chariots of the Gods.

Nobody questions varahamurthi is holding earth in its tusks either.
These are unquestionable truths.

Why this gossip. Let an IIt or IISc take up the technology as is described and explained in anicient texts and experiment it. In these days of technology experiment can be done and results can be seen and felt in just about 8 to 10 weeks. That will solve all the issues of anicient indian technology

Let people or the govt give a fund of say rupees one crore or so to ONe IIT and IISC. Ask them to take all explanations, principles and concepts about Aeroplanes as were in all ancient texts and make full experimentation and build one aere plane. That will give way to greatness of Indian Texts and epics than gossipping here
