PURAANS ARE HISTORY AND SCIENTIFIC DETAILS FROM BIRTH OF SOLAR SYSTEM http://awara32.blogspot.com/2015/09/puraans-are-history-and-scientific.html Puraans, as the name suggest is ancient history. They provide valuable historical details about the ancient earth, its people, and its problems. Since Hindus believe in cyclic theory of evolution these Puraans are undated, and may represent events spread over different cycles. Puraans also give details of formation of solar system including formation of earth, the early stages of earth life and how it evolved. Puraans also tells us about the initial turbulence that was there in our solar system which resulted in the birth of solar system and earth. This post does not intend to provide these details. The details are exhaustive and have to be culled out from Puraans itself. For that one has to understand them, decode them and then get the details.
