An aspect of the Epic Puranic Chronciles that confuses me.

So I have a question, something that confused me for a long time. Parashurama is the sixth incarnation of Vishnu, Rama is the seventh, and Krishna is the eigth. Do I have that right? The point is to reincarnate you have to die first. But Parashurama is a character from Ramayana and Mahabharata, and Krishna is in Mahabharata, and both of them get mentioned but Rama isn't. It makes me wonder, do the mortals of these stories live longer in general? Do the events take place in a short span of time?

Parashurama was a teacher to Bhishma, Dronacharya, and Karna. To reincarnate in to Rama he'd have to die and become Rama, live out that life, then die and become Krishna, who fights alongside the Pandavas. Temporaly speaking it just doesn't make sense. It would mean that Ramayana and Mahabharata would have had to take place at the same time and that when the three Kaurava army generals were alive, Parashurama trained them. They also happened to live long enough for Rama to live his whole life and die after events of Ramayana, and then live long enough for Krishna to grow up. But I never heard an account of of Ramayana and Mahabharata taking place during the same time, and this would also mean that the mortal characters of Mahabharata would have to live for a tremendously long time, and that the Ramayana characters especially Parashurama and Rama would have had to live for a tremendously short time. Hope I made sense.

TLDR: Three "generations" of Vishnu's incarnations existed in Mahabharata and it doesn't really make sense. I've heard accounts of Ramayana taking place in 5000 BC and Mahabharata set in 3000 BC. Either the two epics take place at roughly the same time or the mortal characters who get trained by Parashurama live longer lifespans, long enough for Parashurama to die after training Karna, for Rama to be born and have the battle of Lanka take place, and finally long enough for Krishna to grow into an adult and serve as Arjuna's charioteer. Explain?

Indian mythological references for a book

Hi, i hope you're all doing well.

So, I'm writing a story that revolves around a character's journey through India and it is heavily influenced by Indian mythological stories.

What are your recommendations for mythologies covering themes such as hope, justice, fighting for what's right and love.

Would appreciate any input. Thanks!

I believe Chinese, Indian, Japanese mythology and Zoroastronism all are successors of the lost Pro Indo European culture considering the similarities and common elements

If you amateurishly try to connect certain dots, it seemed more like a Feudal war than ancient history.

Ancient Indian culture did not build temples. It was a Dravidian concept which celebrated itтАЩs kings and put them on a pedestal with gods much like the Egyptians.

Indra being a presence in Japanese, Zoroastran. Devas being the evil ones in Zoroastranism, Yaksha being a common element in Indian and chinese and Sumeru and Meru performing the same function.

The mother of gods and demons being the same in Japanese mythology or the presence of immortals in chinese much like in Indian.

Makardhwaj having a temple in South America or Aryans/Krishna being blue blood much like in Annunaki.

Even the Epic of Giglamesh and the Matsya.

We could have known so much more but Prime Real Estate is in Tibet and our ancient history in Pakistan.

The presence of a divine tree, 9 realms/planets and the fact that Erlang Shen is a lot like Lord Shiva in his appearance.

I would be happy if you could refute these conjectures.

Question on Yugas and Indian timeline

Hey Guys, My question is a very basic one for those who have advanced significantly in the area of Indian mythology. They say that Ramayana took place in the Treta Yuga which lasted for 1296000 years while Mahabharata happened in Dwapara yuga which lasted for 864000 years. Yet! When you read online, you see people saying that Ramayana happened between 5th and 7th BC while Mahabharata happened in 3162 BC. Something doesnтАЩt add up. Please clear my doubt.
