A tree almost 10,000 years old has been identified in Sweden.

The spruce tree found near Dalarna is 9,950 years old! This is staggering… It means that this tree has been around since humans first began serious attempts to develop agriculture!
According to the researchers who are studying the tree and its nearby descendents, it is the tree’s remarkable adaptations - including the ability to grow out another trunk if the main one is damaged - that have allowed it to survive significant climatic changes and other environmental pressures.

Have patience to read this. It is been proved Taj Mahal is not a burial of Mumtaj but an ancient temple of Lord Shiva. We all know it took 22 years(1631-1653). Prof. Oak who found this, says Shiva temple palace was conqured by Shah Jahan from then Maharaja of Jaipur, Jai Singh. Shah jahan himself admits that grand mansion in Agra was taken from Jai Singh for Mumtaz’s burial. Oak’s inquiries began with the name of Taj Mahal. He says the term “Mahal” has never been used for a building in any Muslim countries from Afghanisthan to Algeria. “The unusual explanation that the term Taj Mahal derives from Mumtaz Mahal was illogical in atleast two respects. Firstly, her name was never Mumtaz Mahal but Mumtaz-ul-Zamani,” Secondly, one cannot omit the first three letters ‘Mum’ from a woman’s name to derive the remainder as the name for the building.Taj Mahal, he claims,the name is a corrupt version of Tejo Mahalaya, or Lord Shiva’s Palace. Prof. Oak points out a number of design and architectural inconsistencies that support the belief of the TajMahal being a typical Hindu temple rather
than a mousque. Many rooms in the Taj ! Mahal have remained sealed since Shah Jahan’s time and are still inaccessible to the public. Well, if you follow the below link, you will know the reality. This is where i read this news. Link. Interesting, Specially when the current government open the sealed rooms of the Taj Mahal and let international experts investigate.
