More quotes by Purushottam L. Bhargava

“There are numerous synchronisms recorded in the Vedic, Puranic and epic literatures which are in consonance with the arrangement of names in the dynastic lists of the Puranas. These facts clearly establish the correctness of the arrangement of names in the Puranic genealogies.”

(…) the mistakes regarding the names, the order of succession and the regnal years of kings are certainly not many.
