What are some of the lesser known events in Indian History?

 Story of Pandavas's Aagyatvas, when Bheem creates bhim kund.

Bhim Kund, which is located in Bajna village, about 70 km from Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh.

It is said about this Kund that in the Mahabharata period, when the Pandavas were on the Aagyatvas and wandering here and there for water, but they got no water anywhere. Then Bhima made this Kund by hitting the ground with his mace (gada) and quenched their thirst. It is said that this Kund of 40-80 meters is like a Mace(Gada) in view.

It seems quite ordinary to see this Kund, but its specialty will surprise you. It is said about this Kund that whenever there is a natural calamity (flood, hurricane, tsunami) occurring in the Asian continent, the water of the Kund automatically increases.

It is also said that , from the local administration to foreign scientists have tried to find the depth of this mysterious pool, but everyone is disappointed.

It is said that once foreign scientists had sent a camera up to 200 meters underwater to find the depth of the pool, but still the depth could not be found. It is also said about this Kund that its water is as pure as that of the Ganges and it never spoils, while the normally stagnant water slowly starts to deteriorate.

Even today, scientists do not have any answer as to what is the depth of the Kund and whenever a catastrophe is coming, why does the water level of this tank rise?

How can it be possible that there is an Annabelle doll?

 There is a doll exist called Annabel, it is real and people believe that it possesd by a demon

It is kept Warrens' Occult Museum present in Monroe town in USA.

The Annabel story in which the doll was with nursing students and they seen unusual things from doll, for example the doll itself change position in room, it write notes on paper like help me, it tried to attack a boy, all these things are revealed by ed and Loren who are famous paranormal investigators.

But all these things are just stories, there is no interview or any video of a nursing students who claimed that Annabel doll is haunting, these stories are made by ed and Loren.

Second thing about Annabel people believe that you can't insult the doll, if someone try to insult it Annabel will take revenge, story of a cruch father and a boy was there regarding this incident , but again these stories don't have any proof it is propagated by ed and Loren.

Claims which are made on annabelle to show that doll is possessed by a demon are mostly by ed and Loren but none of their claims have proper proof.

So Annabel is a normal doll there is nothing like it is possessed by demon. You can remove it from museum and you can pass comment on it like me, I always find that doll very funny, of course in the movie that doll have a scary apperance but in reality it looks very funny and normal.

Ed and Loren probably used this doll stories to make money, they sold the stories to novel writers and Warner brothers( popular hollywood movies production company ). Because of which we have the Conjuring universe

Is there a correlated history behind Samudra Mandhan?

 1. Samadura Manthan is also called Sagar Manthan and Churning of the Ocean.

2. Samadura Manthan is not a history.

3. Samadura Manthan is an actual event that took place near the Mountain Kailash.

4. There are two lakes with pure water and saline water.

5. Pure water represents God or Suras.

6. Saline water represents Demons or Asuras.

7. The search is for Pure Amrit, Nectar, or Pure Water by churning the Ocean Water.

8. The most important event is the Rising of Blue Violet Vapours called Halahala.

9. The Blue-Black Vapours represent the Iodine Element or Salt.
