Jatayu Nature Park is holding the distinction of having the world’s largest bird sculpture (200 feet (61 m) long, 150 feet (46 m) broad, 70 feet (21 m) in height and having 15,000 square feet (1,400 m2) of floor area) of the great bird Jatayu.
   


   HISTORY BEHIND THE ANCIENT BIRD 'JATAYU'







 In the Hindu epic RamayanaJatayu (Sanskrit: जटायू Jaṭāyū) is a divine bird and the younger son of Aruṇa. His brother, Sampati, is a demi-god who has the form of a vulture and was an old friend of Dasharatha (Rama's father).

According to the legend, it is believed that Jatayu fell on the rocks in Chadayamangalam in Kerala after his wings were clipped off by Ravanawhile taking  goddess 'sita' forcefully to lanka.  Formerly, the place was called Jatayumangalam.

This is the place which is mostly credited to the falling place of Jatayu since rocks there hold striking carvings of Jatayu's beak mark during his last breath and footprints of Lord Rama.

Jatayu is also considered as one of the first recognised person in our holy texts who sacrificed his life for the women's safety and honour. 
And that's the reason creator of this gait sculpture Mr Rajeev Anchal has appointed all the female staff for it's security of the park.

"HOW MUCH CORRECT OR ACCURATE ARE THESE THOUSANDS OF YEARS OLD TEXTS"?





  • I hope everyone can clearly the red pin-point that's the exact location where 'the Jatayu' was fallen after being attacked by 'Ravana', while trying to save 'Sita'.
  • At the right-hand side of the picture, a small Island must be visible to all that's Ravana's kingdom 'The Lanka' or today we know it well as Sri Lanka.
So,its very evident that the site of attack by Ravana on Jatayu mentioned is quite accurate and his movement towards his kingdom can be clearly understood.

Hence, these texts seems to be quite accurate and if it's true India can give a lot of information to the world About excellence in medical science by researching on 'sanjeevani'.
Or In the field of Engineering by researching on how Ravana would have been travelled between India and Sri lanka

 Its time you Need is stop believing everything that european countries tell you about you,
