Can vouch for the english translation. If anything, it actually is not able to capture the full essence of the phrases in Sanskrit.
Actually, VonDutch, when the British first translated the texts to English, as the colonial masters of India, they were taken aback by the
descriptions.
What we can today relate to as the description of an atomic blast had no point of reference to those translators, since the atomic bomb 'hadnt' been
invented then.
However, evidence of nuclear destruction is not limited to ancient India alone.
When the city of Mohenjodaro(now in Pakistan) was excavated by archeologists in the last century, they found skeletons just lying in the streets, some
of them holding hands, as if some great doom had suddenly overtaken them. These skeletons are among the most radioactive ever found, on a par with
those found at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Ancient cities whose brick and stone walls have literally been vitrified, that is-fused together, can be found
in India, Ireland, Scotland, France, Turkey and other places. There is no logical explanation for the vitrification of stone forts and cities, except
from an atomic blast. Furthermore, at Mohenjo-Daro, a well planned city laid on a grid, with a plumbing system superior to those used in Pakistan and
India today, the streets were littered with "black lumps of glass." These globs of glass were discovered to be clay pots that had melted under
intense heat!

I really feel sad for you. No matter where in the world you are, no matter whether you were born in India or not, ancient India was an amazing place.
Getting to know ancient india and its accomplishments is an epic journey filled with wonder, amazement and increduility. You should try it
sometimes.
