Dianausars

[Krishna7]

Does Hindu literature say anything about the yoga during which the dianausars existed?

None that I know of. I believe that during the time of the Vedas, or Puranas being written, there would have been no archeological evidence of dinosaurs.

I was just watching some video yesterday.. for what it is worth, I want to mention here that before the advent of dinosaurs, earth was super hot all over and existed as 1 single continent. Then it seems it rained for 2 MILLION years non-stop! This made the forests and vegetation flourish that made dinosaur life successful and hence flourish during the period.

(Sorry, couldn't help but share this info. If someone complains, I'll delete it).

"Before the advent of dinosaurs" covers a lot of time -- most of the planet's history, as a matter of fact. Earth and the continental map went through a lot of changes before the dinos showed up.

If you know, there is no mention of Dinausars in Shrimad Bhagvan Purana.
Why is that?

Oh which video? I like learning about how the earth was "formed" for lack of a better term.

Earth was formed billions of years ago as a molten accretion of metal and rock, but since then it's gone through many periods of heat and cold, and the continents have drifted all over the place, sometimes conjoining, sometimes breaking up.

Because they were long extinct. Except for birds. Birds are the living descendants of certain classes of dianasa... I mean dinosaurs.

Yeah, dinos flourished in Earth's warmer period. Here:
