The Fortress of the Asuras

Long before the Flood erased the old world, before human civilizations carved their first stones, celestial beings walked the Earth with powers that would later be called divine. Among them, the Asuras-masters of levitation and matter manipulation-built monuments that touched the sky.

In the lush jungles of ancient Lanka, now known as Sri Lanka, they erected their most audacious creation: Sigiriya, the Lion Rock. Not a palace for mortal kings, but a fortress for the one they called Ravana-the ten-headed lord of the Asuras.

The monolith rose 200 meters from the earth, its summit carved flat as if sliced by the blade of a god. No ramps. No scaffolding. No stairs to reach the sky. The Asuras did not climb. They flew.

Using what the Vedic texts call Vimanas-flying machines powered by sound frequencies and electromagnetic fields-they transported 3 million clay bricks to the summit, thousands of tons of marble from quarries that no longer exist, granite blocks carved with tools that left scoop marks in stone harder than steel.

The construction defied not just gravity, but time itself. What modern historians claim took 7 years may have actually taken millennia, built layer by layer as the Asuras refined their mastery over matter.

Beneath the fortress, an intricate network of channels and reservoirs demonstrated knowledge far beyond primitive engineering. Underground irrigation canals that still function today. Symmetrical gardens aligned with astronomical precision. A 30-meter granite swimming pool carved from solid rock-3,500 tons of stone removed with no visible tool marks.

The hydraulic system never failed. Rain or drought, the gardens bloomed eternal, fed by reservoirs that captured and distributed water with mathematical perfection.

According to the Ramayana, Ravana was no ordinary being. Standing over 3 meters tall, he commanded the Asuras and their technologies. His fortress at Sigiriya served multiple purposes. The massive lion paws at the entrance may not be feline at all. Their shape suggests something more ancient-reptilian claws, symbols of the serpent lords who ruled before the Flood.

Ravana himself was described as a shape-shifter, able to transform between human, lion, and reptilian forms. The Asuras under his command were often depicted as giant serpents-not metaphorically, but literally.

Some texts suggest Sigiriya served as more than a fortress. It was a gateway, a portal between dimensions where celestial beings could traverse the space between worlds. The astronomical alignment of the main structure-perfectly oriented to the equinox sunrises and sunsets-suggests it functioned as a cosmic calendar, perhaps even a navigation system for the Vimanas.

The evidence carved into Sigiriya's granite reveals technologies lost to time. The smooth, scooped marks in the granite swimming pool and chambers suggest the Asuras possessed a method to soften stone. Not heat-melting, but a chemical or vibrational process that made rock pliable as clay.

This same technique appears in Sacsayhuaman, Peru with polygon walls using no mortar. The Great Pyramid in Egypt shows granite coffers with precision cuts. Puma Punku in Bolivia displays H-blocks with perfect right angles. The pattern repeats globally.

Numerous holes drilled deep into the granite at impossible angles suggest anchor points for levitation platforms. The Asuras may have used sound frequency generators to create standing wave patterns that could lift and position massive stones with precision.

The Vedic texts describe Asura technology as forbidden-powerful enough to destroy the natural order. Their weapons could level cities in a single blast. Their vehicles could cross continents in hours. At Sigiriya, they left behind clues carved in stone, waiting for humanity to rediscover what was lost.

The war between the Devas, celestial beings of light, and Asuras, masters of technology, reached its climax at Sigiriya. When Ravana kidnapped Sita, wife of Rama, he brought her to this very fortress.

The subsequent battle saw Vimanas clashing in the skies, weapons of mass destruction raining fire, and the very earth trembling under divine fury. Rama's victory marked the end of the Asura dominion. Sigiriya fell silent, its technologies sealed, its purpose forgotten-until the Flood came and buried the truth beneath layers of sediment and time.

Today, archaeologists scratch their heads at no visible construction method for reaching the summit. Marble from unknown quarries. 3,500 tons of granite removed to create a single pool. Hydraulic systems that surpass modern engineering. Astronomical alignments precise to the degree. Tool marks that suggest advanced machinery.

The official story-that a paranoid king built this in 7 years with primitive tools-crumbles under the weight of physical evidence. Sigiriya stands as a monument to a civilization that wielded powers we're only beginning to understand through quantum physics and frequency manipulation.

The Asuras weren't myths. They were architects of reality itself, capable of bending matter to their will through technologies we've lost-or perhaps, technologies we're not yet ready to rediscover. Their fortress in the sky remains, waiting for those with eyes to see the truth carved in its ancient stones.
