Claim summary · not a verbatim quotation
Kailasa has no conventional explanation; unknown technology made it.
The finding
What the evidence shows
Joe says there is zero conventional explanation for Kailasa and mentions lasers as the kookiest possibility. The government-hosted historical architectural study describes Krishna's masons quarrying down from above and sculpting the retained rock into a temple. UNESCO identifies Cave 16 as a monolithic rock-cut temple. Not every detail or duration is known, but no conventional explanation is too strong; lasers are not demonstrated.
