MANSA MUSA KING OF MALI AND SRI PADMANABHASWAMY TEMPLE GOLD - CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL

MANSA MUSA OF MALI, RICHEST  KING OF THE PLANET -- SRI PADMANABHASWAMY TEMPLE OF KERALA,  THE RICHEST TEMPLE OF THE PLANET-- IBN BATTUTA'S  TRAVEL ACCOUNTS IN MECCA, MALI AND CALICUT , --  BARTER OF GOLD FOR VEDIC BOOKS OF KNOWLEDGE - CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL

Two days ago, it was a bit distressing to hear that the rebels burn the library of Mali containing ancient  books of knowledge accumulated by Mansa Musa , the richest king of this planet ever.  

I guess the rebels did this with a heavy heart to prevent the white man stealing their books and carting it away. 

As it is in the guise of digital translation the white man has been trying hard to get hold of these ancient priceless books — most of which are Arabic translations of  Kerala school of Vedic Maths and Science.

US attempts to build up Mali's military as a bulwark against the extremists, by training army officers and providing equipment including brand-new Land Cruisers with huge long range guns and expensive communications equipment, ( like in Libya ) backfired spectacularly last year after a rebellion in the north provoked a coup that unseated the elected government in Bamako.  On March 22, 2012  just a month before a presidential election in the country, US trained Capt Amadou Haya Sanogo and soldiers loyal to him stormed the presidential palace in the capital Bamako and overthrew President Amadou Toumani Toure.

In 1799, the owner of British East India Company , German Jew Rothschild stole the largest amount of gold on this planet from Tipu Sultan , and carted it away to Europe. 

This would be the base of the Rothschild banking cartel fortune-- and their elevation to the status of Big Brother.

Tipu Sultan stole his gold from the vaults of the ancient Kerala temples, the fruit of millenniums of trade in spices and knowledge –yes- knowledge.  An insignificant temple of South Kerala was NOT destroyed by Tipu Sultan. 

He tried , but all he got for his efforts was a broken leg and loss of his sword, which is now with Indian Businessman Vijay Mallya.

Punch into Google search TIPU SULTAN UNMASKED VADAKAYIL to know more about the dirty tricks of the Jew Rothschild.

In June 2011, the Indian Govt opened a minor vault of this temple and the discovery shocked the world. An enormous quantity of gold was found,  valued prima facie at 24 billion US dollars .

The antique value of gold artifacts and jewels will make the value 10 times more.  

This forced the Indian Govt to abort the opening of the major vaults, due to security concerns. Probably they are at a loss to understand what to do with all this money.

Till today all are scratching their heads as to the source of this gold, lying unknown , in the sealed vaults of this minor temple--  Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple of Kerala..

Punch into Google search IBN BATTUTA AT CALICUT VADAKAYIL to read an account of the barter of gold by Mansa Musa , the wise king of Mali with books of knowledge ( of medicine, maths, astronomy, science etc)  with the Calicut king.  

Ibn Batuta was at Calicut ( my hometown ) and worked in the Calicut Kings court for a while.  A lot of Vedic books were translated into Arabic .

Mansa Musa was  born in 1280 and ruled the Mali Empire which, at the time, produced more than 70% of the world's supply of gold thus contributing to his substantial wealth. 

Mansa Musa's reign (1312-1337 CE) was "the golden age of the empire of Mali”. Today Mali has been exploited and is one of the poorest countries in the world.  Mali has good reserves of Uranium, oil and gas.

Mansa Musa is remembered for his extravagant Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca), which he performed in 1324. 

The journey across Africa to Mecca took over a year and he is said to have travelled with a large retinue of camels, slaves, subjects, saddled horses, coloured flags, gold - as well as his senior wife Inari Kunate, who, apparently took with her five hundred maids-in-waiting.

Mansa Musa set out from Mali for Mecca with an entourage of 60,000 people as per Ibn Batuta who visited Mecca 9 years later.

Since his empire was one of the richest in the world, the caravan of travelers must have made quite an impression to everyone they passed. 12,000 servants accompanied him, each wearing valuable silks and carrying a 4 pound bar of gold.  

More than 100 camels of this caravan carried more than 300 pounds of gold nuggets , each. The propaganda is that he gave all the gold away away free,  enroute.

No Sir!  not at all !!!.  

He has lot of scholars with him and he bought up every book of knowledge on the way for nearly one year.  He also hired doctors , architects , teachers , thinkers, translators and scholars and took them back to Mali with him.  He would set up great universities.

Those days the King of Calicut had his own camel caravan operating between seaports Aden, Salalah to Mecca and from  Bernice in Egypt to Mali – and he got royalty for the goods and the books of knowledge translated to Arabic.

This wise king knew that knowledge is more precious than gold, which very few understood those days.  

Most of this knowledge in those days were transcripts of Vedic Indian books in Astronomy, Medicine, Maths, Science etc translated to Arabic from Malayalam and Sanskrit books of Kerala--my home state.

This is as per Ibn Batuta’s accounts .

Musa’s Mecca trip and his barter of gold for books and scholars would soon establish Mali as one of the intellectual capitals of the world.  Mali developed one of the richest educational traditions of the world at that time.  Libraries were all over cities such as Gao and Timbuktu. Public and private collections had thousands of books.

Most of these books are still lying in deep foxholes in the desert sands at the people of Mali do NOT trust any central library which can be raided by the cunning white man.

This tradition of knowledge lasts until today in Mali. Families still hold on to private library collections that number in the hundreds of books, many of them hundreds of years old. 

The people of Mali are fiercely protective of their knowledge that has been passed down from the time of Mansa Musa, making it very difficult for outsiders to access these great libraries. 

Mind you, never be under the illusion that this knowledge is generated from brains of Mali citizens -- this is IMPORTED Indian ( translated ) knowledge, paid for with gold nuggets --money well spent.


Those days you could dig 3 feet under the ground with a stick and get gold nuggets.

Mansa Musa was the richest man ever to have lived! The 14th Century king of Mali is ranked at number one in a new inflation-adjusted list of the world's 25 wealthiest people of all time (three of which are still alive including Bill Gates and Warren Buffet). This king is said to have had a personal net worth of $400 billion at the time of his death in 1337 !

Timbuktu is not mentioned by the early Arab geographers such as al-Bakri and al-Idrisi. The first mention of Timbuktu is by the Moroccan traveler Ibn Battuta who visited Timbuktu in 1353.

Timbuktu is located in the western African nation of Mali at the edge of the Sahara.  The popular statement, " From here to Timbuktu." conjures up images of remote, isolated and distant parts of this earth.  Despite its illustrious history, modern-day Timbuktu is an impoverished town,  desperately poor even by Third World standards.

Mansa Mussa's pilgrimage to Mecca in 1324 had made Mali known worldwide and attracted the attention of the Kings of Portugal and Spain. The fact that so much of gold was bartered and taken away to Calicut was NOT lost on them. 

It is no wonder that soon by 1498,  Vasco Da Gama would land at Calicut. Some of the Kerala manuscripts translated to Arabic are now found in Mauritania.

Today, nothing remains of the palace built by Mansa Musa, but the mosque still stands as a reminder of the past. After the Europeans actually reached Timbuktu, it was reduced to little more than a "mass of ill-looking houses made of earth." 

They had no interest other than looting whatever wealth was available.  The local population hid the books in fox holes in the desert and most of them are still there in these holes.

Today Timbuktu lies in the independent country of Mali. It is accessible by air, but it is far easier to go by boat or camel caravan.

On 3 April 2012, the BBC reported that the Islamist rebel group Ansar Dine had started implementing  Islamic sharia in Timbuktu , and that the Christian population had fled the city,  pissing off the Christian West.

Never mind the poverty and the suffering.  French and British soldiers are now in Mali, to re-install their "pro-west puppet democratic government".  

Christianity must get a toe hold and prevail, right?

History repeats itself.

The widespread looting in Baghdad, Basra, Mosul, Kirkuk and other Iraqi cities, following the collapse of the Ba'athist regime of President Saddam Hussein, was not merely an incidental byproduct of the US military conquest of Iraq.  It was deliberately encouraged and fostered.  Thousands took part in the looting in Baghdad which began , the day the Hussein government ceased to function in the capital city . Some of them have already found their way to the auction houses of the West, quietly .

Perhaps the most devastating loss for the Iraqi people is the ransacking of the National Museum, the greatest trove of archaeological and historical artifacts in the Middle East. The 28 galleries of the huge museum were picked clean by “sponsored” looters ( with US military watching ) who made off with more than 171,000 irreplaceable artifacts, PRICELESS  relics of past civilizations dating back 8,000 years .
