Hi, One of the main events of PS is the appearing of the dooma keetu and its associated foretelling .... that its not good for the ruling family.
what does kalki mean by dooma keetu, it cant be a shooting star, as its seen right through from the start till the day of AK assasination.
could it be a super nova..which are the last moments of dying stars when they become several orders of magnitude brighter than usual and may often be visible in daytime sky
Supernova is an extremely violent explosion that marks end of stellar life. Supernovae are among the brightest events in the Universe. Some supernovae are so bright that they can outshine the entire galaxy. At the time of supernova, brightness of star can instantaneously increase to more than a million times its original brightness. It can remain in such a state for a few hours and after that it fades away slowly over next few months. Hence, if a supernova occurs in our vicinity, it can appear so bright that it will outshine most of the objects in the night sky. In rare cases it can even outshine the moon and be visible in daylight.
However, supernovae are among the rarest events to observe. Last two millennia may have seen only fifteen supernovae. Supernovae sightings have been recorded throughout history although the distinction of true supernovae from novae is sometimes ambiguous.
Ran a check on recorded supernovas ( they have been apparently recorded by chinese, arab and japanese astronomical charts)
the closest i can come to is the Supernova 1054AD
This popular historical supernovae exploded on July 4, 1054, in the constellation of Taurus. References to this supernova can be found in well-documented Chinese records to inscriptions of Native Americans. The Supernova was visible in early morning skies when it exploded. Crescent of the moon was very close to the supernova. The guest star was visible in the daylight for about 23 days. It was visible for the next 20 months in the night skies before it faded out.
But it does clash with the possible dates as
sundara chola 957 -750 uttama chola 970 -985 raja raja chola 985 - 1014.
kalki had been impressed with calpurnia's words in shakesperes julius ceasar, " comets do not arise when beggars die...." but even then the dates of halleys comet do not match the events.
12 BC: Some theologians have suggested that the comet's appearance in 12 BC might explain the Biblical story of the Star of Bethlehem.[4]
1066: The comet was seen in England and thought to be a bad omen: later that year Harold II of England died at the Battle of Hastings.
Dhumaketu is a Sanskrit name for Comet. The word is still in use in Hindi and other Devanagari languages. In Astrological terms, it is another manifestation of Kethu. In Sanskrit, Dhumaketu means "whose sign is smoke". Appearence of Comets is usually seen as a bad omen.
