The Secrets of Ramayana | Truth Behind Sita, Hanuman, Ravana & Lakshman Rekha ft Dr. Vineet Aggarwal

In this special Diwali episode of Expert Talk with Bhavya Desai, we are joined by Dr. Vineet Aggarwal — a doctor by education, manager by profession, and researcher of ancient Indian history and culture by passion.

Together, we explore the hidden layers of Diwali and the Ramayana, uncovering how history, symbolism, and spirituality intertwine in India’s most beloved epic. From the real story of Narakasura and the meaning behind Dev Diwali, to why there was never a Lakshman Rekha, Sita’s untold strength, and Ravana’s rise to power, Dr. Aggarwal brings a fresh, logical, and research-backed perspective to ancient mythology.
The conversation also delves into Hanuman’s divine nature, the mystery of Ram Setu, connections between the Ramayana and Mahabharata, and the profound philosophies hidden within these timeless tales.
A thought-provoking episode that blends mythology, philosophy, and science, revealing how the wisdom of the epics continues to guide and inspire us even today.
