You are at Product pages >> ShankhaShankh X-RaysFirst they were selling the Lightning Whelk as the rare Dakshinavarti Shankha. Warnings posted with pictures in many websites, including this site, made people aware of this. Then they started faking three or four lines at the inside opening of the Lightning Whelk to make it look more authentic. X-Ray can expose this. The Dakshinavarti fakers are getting smarter but the X-Ray photographs give a very good picture of how they are faked. See how the fakes can be caught as shown in the two pictures bellow. See the faked ridges on the Lightning Whelk (busycon contrarium) picture to the left and how they don’t show in the X-Ray picture on the right. See another fake which is a smarter idea and more difficult to catch You can help us!Today this one man operated website has 250 Vedic scriptures online. Plus 17 major Sashtras of astrology, 200 MP3 Stotras and the 4 Vedas in MP3. All this and plenty more are given freely. A good part of the money earned by this site goes to support the three charitable causes - Scriptures for the blind , helping the slum children of Delhi and helping a Gurukul Vedasala. The space occupied by these audio files and their monthly usage bandwidth is in Gigabytes and costs me a pile. If you like the work I am doing, please feel free to make a donation. Your continued donations will keep this site running and help in expanding.
