I mean, you've talked about Mahabharata.
Yeah, the Vimanas.
Yeah, yeah.
So the Mahabharata is one of the two Hindu epics.
The other one is Ramayana.
But Mahabharata is more interesting.
It's more complicated.
It's like a lot of different stories interleaved together.
And the Brahmastra is the equivalent of the hydrogen bomb.
It's described as a weapon of mass destruction, going to annihilate human population, should not be used at any cost.
There's a moral contract.
You clearly have to be violating so many things at a deeply moral level to even...
wield it and uh it's not actually a lot it's not actually accessible to most warriors there's probably like two warriors in the world in in in that era who are allowed to use it and uh and it has to be passed through special access like a teacher has to like pass it on to you the secret to use it

Arjuna was not Drona's son, but he was his model disciple.
