The evidence is that of great authorities like Shankara, Ramanuja, Madhva, Nimbarka, Vishnuswami, Sri Jiva, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu etc.. have accepted them and most of them commented not only on Ramayana & Mahabharata, but also on various Vedic scriptures and puranas. The were spiritual scientists unlike material scientists who do experiments with knowledge.

Well a few archeological sites have been found which depict similarities to whatever's written in those scripts. However we cannot be sure that the scripts that we are reading today are the very same ones that were written centuries ago. During these centuries, the language has evolved, the culture has evolved, we are left over with just links of the history. The actual story will reamain a mystery untill somone travels back in the past or someone from the past visits the present world and narrates the incidents.

The heroes of both these epics Ramayana and Mahabharata were Lord Rama and Lord Krishna, both were the incarnations of Lord Maha Vishnu. It is all true stories. More than debating whether they are myth or true we should take the Teachings and morals of these epics which will go a long way to purify us and to understand what is life and what we are supposed to do. -

Both can be seen even now. It is dristi of the person/individual. My faith says both are true. Then there was no evidence Act. Secularism. Our life is between two dots. Born dot and death dot. Born with cry and death with others cry. We have so many phases of our life. So many changes in body growth. Mother is true and Father is faith. One should have faith in the God and Vedas with true spirit. Spirituality is the ultimate result. Enjoy with love. Thank you.

Like the Bible, some aspects of the two religious epics are accurate, but most of it is man-made fantasy.
A good comparison would be with Homer's Iliad - the Trojan war did take place, but the gods were not involved.

I don't think it is true. It may be an imagination of characters.
