    Re: Aryan Invasion Theory

    Also, if I remember correctly, much of the AIT was based on the use of the Christian Bible as an infallible historical document. For example, since...according to the Bible...the Earth is only 6000 years old (LOL!), and the flood (Noah's Ark) occurred about 1700 years after that, then no civilization, other than Noah and his kin, can be older than approximately 4300 years old. (2300 B.C.E. *)

    Of course, this is preposterous, and shows the kind of stupid "logic" that has prevailed throughout much of Western historical thought since Christianity inflicted the Dark Ages upon the world.

    (*) By the way, I've noticed a few people on this board using the old "B.C./A.D." ("Before Christ"/"Anno Domini - The Year of Our Lord") dating system. Most reputable historians have changed to the secular "C.E./B.C.E." ("Common Era/Before Common Era") system, as it is rather distasteful for us non-Christians to have to date things to their religious whims. But if you really want to mess with Christians, you can use the Pagan Roman dating system, where the year 2010 is actually 2763 A.U.C. (Ab Urbe Condita - "Since the founding of the city") But I'm kind of a smartass like that...

    Re: Aryan Invasion Theory

    Aryan Invasion Theory has been busted.

    The Rigveda contains several hymns that glorify a river called Saraswati.

    Today satellite images have proven that there once was a river which served as the spine of the Indus valley civilization.

    And this river fits precisely with the Saraswati river that the Vedic people had praised.

    How can invaders praise the main river of the region they conquered?

    Mahabharata says that Saraswati "dried up"

    Thats EXACTLY what happened. Saraswati river dried up, which resulted in the collapse of the civilization.

    Now as for racial differences, there is clearly some difference in features between dvijas and shudras/untouchables and north indians and south indians.

    But both are closer than they are distinct.

    The Sikh religion is supposed to be "brotherhood of mankind" that transcends race, class and caste.

    Yet if we look at the most racial minded of Indians. Its the Punjabi Sikh Jatts that go on and on and on and on non-stop about how they are distinct from other Indians as "Indo Iranians" / Aryans.

    Yet they will put the blame of discrimination on Hindus.

    Re: Aryan Invasion Theory

    Those who still believe in aryan and dravidian theory are stuck in the knwoledge level of the british era and kept on by leftist academicia.

    Max Mueller who proposed this theory in conjunction with the missionaries from the churches based the theory on light of Bible and the superiority of white over colored. Max Mueller himself refuted the thery later.

    Points to be noted :

    1. Indus Valley civilization, which is as old as 4000 BC was discovered later and this put a huge question mark on this theory.

    2. There were no known organised group in Central Asia who would have come down to India. The influx to north India has been a continuos stream all through out.

    3. The recent discovery by NIOT at gulf of cambay - a sunken city at 40 m depth and 40 km in the sea - has similar features of Harappa - Mahenjodaro. This is around 10000 BC. This and many others were part of the Saraswati Civilization.

    4. DNA study shows that India had almost first people out of Afrika more that 120000 yrs ago. Mostly in south India. Another came through north Afrika - Iran - India around 65000 years ago. 40000 years ago a brach went out to central asia which again later on divided into two. One went to North america - south americka through the alaska. Another spread into Europe. Still another branch spread through NE India to SE asia. It had another brach by sea.

    5. The skin colour is a product of the sun, environment and habit. Norther region having oblique sunray are not as intense and has more seasonal variation. The color pigment we have is mostly a protective layer for withstanding sun. Nearer the equator we have darkest skin and it becomes lighter as we move north. Even in Afrika it is there. No doubt India has it also.

    6. It is natural that early humans will remain close to water bodies and coastal areas and also in temperate zones. Their movement also will follow the tropical zone and warm areas. So suddenly going to central asia (harsh weather) before populating the middle east and India is a bit far fetched.

    7. With the temperate climate and abundance of water, India from the begining was an agricultural society. In agriculture you sow once and reap once and enjoy rest of the year. That is why the ealier society had so much time to do other things which also included knowledge search. This way India had the right eco system to develop into a great knowledge society and also well structured defined duty based society. That is why India had two universities Taxila and Nalanda which were great seat of knowledge. the science, medicine, astronomy, astrology, astro-physics, mathematics, spirituality, etc all developed to quite an advanced stage which were later on used by middle east and there after in west.

    As far as we know, central asia was still dominated by nomads who were mostly on hunting, looting, etc for day to day needs. Yes they became great warriers, producer of weapons, had superior body built but not the higher knowledge. They became more materialistic.

    8. No where in all literatures, scriptures, outsiders (who visited India), etc have ever said about two types of people.

    Though I am from north, my belief is that the structured society evolved from south and moved toward north through saraswati civ, then Indus valley civ and then ganges. The languages also evolved as it moved and finally in early AD or late BC Sanskrit was developed as a full fledged language. The sruti version of the vedas, vedanta, upanishads, etc were there for ages. Much is lost and distorted but significant amount could be preserved through scripts.

    Tamil - still is has incomplete script - suggesting that it might be the oldest living language in India. It has later on taken a few letters from sanskrit. Rest all languages have similar number of alphabets and phonetics. South is still to be fully discovered (around in the sea). We might be surprised that the cradle of the initial Hinduism thought process might be from there.

    If you go to Russia - they will say that they have derived a lot from sankrit and Hinduism (even they do Arti in church; they have holy water which is equivalent to ganga water). Hinduism spread (in diluted) form was through out the eurasia mass. Even possibly in south america !!!!.

    Re: Aryan Invasion Theory

    Even though we have enough proof that the whole Aryan invasion is concocted..but Indian government refrains to take it off the history books and continues to mislead the students and many more..

    Most of the history about many countries not only India were distorted by westerners..just to mislead the world about their pseudo supremacy.. and the funny thing is some westerners wrote about India even without ever stepping their foot on this holy land not even once in their lives..and it's total shame and irony that we refer to the books written by the same westerners to prove a point about our great country India.

  5. Cool Re: Aryan Invasion Theory

    This thread should be deleted now and rewrite by those who have much high knowledge about like Bryon Morrigan.

    Important Threads must be answered by those who know the truth, and not by those who themselves question.

    I was angry when I was reading first few posts here, according to my knowledge of History, the Aryan as a Race was made by Maxmullar, and British made invasion theory, while in Truth Arya means Noble


    Satay, please delete this thread and remake with learned ones, many members posted without knowlege, if somebody who have less knowledge about it will think, we are supporting Aryan Invasion, that is untruth

    The name of the thread should be something like
    The Myath of Aryan Invasion Therory
