And your answer was flawed, as you said that Vayu Purana states Kartavirya defeated Ravan at the Narmada river but in reality if you look at the screenshots it says that he directly invaded lanka. | |
| Feb 12, 2018 at 17:25 | comment | added | Say No To Censorship | There's a theory that the original Lanka in the Ramayana story was a place close to Ayodhya (i.e., not the present day Sri Lanka) or at least it's somewhere within the Indo-Gangetic plain. Later poets like Valmiki expanded on the idea and made it the present day Sri Lanka. This would explain why everyone didn't require a bridge to invade Lanka (if indeed Kartavirya-Arjuna is a true historical character). | |
