Vault B

India was once one of  the worlds richest country in terms of both wealth and agriculture .  The Sree Padmanabhaswamy temple is a proof of the theory. How ? well the recent exploration in 2011 of the temple's vault A unearthed treasure worth billions of dollars . Yes, just one vault out of six had that much treasure . Then can you guess how much the other vaults had. Out of six ,four vaults were opened time to time The two remaining vaults were vaults A and vault B . In 2011 a team was assigned to open both the vaults but they were only able to open one i.e vault A where they found a hidden chamber full of treasures from gold to diamond ,jewelleries to statues embedded with precious stones. So what happened to vault B?  

Well the mystery revolves around the particular vault. As the legend goes the vault cannot be opened by ordinary people it can only be opened by high order priests who know the secret incantation , it does not stop here but goes to the extent that if any human tries to open the vault forcefully , disaster would occur. 

The special team of seven opened the iron door to vault B then were greeted by a wooden door which also they opened with effort but the gates didn't there end they were greeted with a metal door which nomatter how much they tried couldn't be opened. They decided to hire a locksmith to open the gates later so they left vault B and went to vault A . After a few days when the team found a locksmith and wanted to investigate the unopened vault . The petitioner who gave the permission to investigate the hidden vaults died suddenly , thus adding fuel to the fire that the vault holds a powerful curse.

But the legend is not half as fascinating as the door to the vault itself.

The door is supposed to be protected by cobra snakes , then is it only me , why am I seeing a version of Chinese dragons rather than snakes on the door . Then there is a head of the demon and it is not dead but freakingly alive as if smiling maliciously at us, as if knows something we don't. As if he can read our minds and know exactly what we are going to do , are we going to open the gates or flee away. 

To add more to creepiness to the already existing creepy door there are human figurine hanging at the boundary of the door as if in despair , crying with pain , calling for help but are being crushed by the snakes.

But more interestingly what is fleur-de-lis doing here?. The lily symbol that represents  French royal blood , moreover the symbol that is said to be given to Merovingian bloodline. If the temple is created during 8th century there how did the fluer-de-lis  end up here. There is a talk that the fluer-de-lis was evolved from Poseidon's trident . Okay , so maybe it was a modified version of trident or a lotus but how come it was incorporated in a secret vault door in a temple in India. The symbol which is connected to Knights Templar in more than one ways what is it doing in India. Does the gates hold the cursed treasure of Templars. If so then how ?  then why would the door require  Vaishnava holy incantation to open up?

Now comes the twist in the story it is said that the vault door was opened once in1930s and found to be infested with cobras . It was like a den of deathly cobras . The people closed the door and ran away from after seeing the site. But some sources say those people never came out of the temple. You see food is required for any living creature so either the cobras were feed by someone or there is another way to the secret vault , a way that is hidden or long forgotten

But the doors can't opened now because the holy incantation that was supposed to open the door magically is long forgotten and the supreme court has ordered not to open the doors forcefully.

Now coming to the fact that civilization then was more advanced than us , they could make unbelievable sophisticated and tricky things using simple tools. Then couldn't it be possible that the incantation is actually a password and not a holy chanting. Only the people who had the password could open the gates.

But the question still lies what is so important that it needs to be guarded behind such high security door ?

There are treasures in other vaults also then why only vault B has this high security features and why in the world is the door designed like that? Why make a monstrous scary door in the temple of God.

Is it a test for humans like the pandora's box or there is actually something that is worth protecting , that is obviously more precious than jewels or gold. Is the doors protecting a secret , a secret so dangerous that it can rip the world in half . 

Well no-one can be sure until the doors are open but do we want to open the door after knowing just how much security measures have been taken to protect whatever is behind the door.
