| | Encyclopedia: Aryan invasion |
 | | Certain modern theories of the origins of Hinduism and Buddhism as they are known today are based around the Aryan invasion theory. | | | The Aryans would have brought with them their own Vedic religion, which was codified in the Vedas around 1500 to 1200 BC. | | | It was proposed, on the basis of passages in the Rig-Veda and assumptions about surviving racial hierarchies, that these invaders were light-skinned people who had subdued darker aboriginal people and then mixed with them. |

| | In fact most languages fall either into the Indo-Eorupean or the Dravidian category.Brahui language spoken in parts of Pakisthan, Afganisthan, Iran and Turkmenisthan is a dravidian language, maintaining its purity. | | | Tilak's theory that the Aryans came from the arctic circle was based on the beautiful descriptions of the dawn (Ushas). | | | Moreover the presence of fire alters in Harappan excavations and the seals depicting Pasupathi in a yogic posture etc confirm the belief that the Vedic traditions such as Fire worship & Yoga were a part of the Indus Valley Civilization and not imported concepts. |

| | A Tribute to Hinduism - aryan_invasion_theory |
| | The Aryan invasion theory was hypothesized in the 19th century to explain the similarities found in Sanskrit and the languages of Europe. | | | The preplanned scheme of Jones to introduce the idea that Sanskrit was an outside language gave birth to the speculation of the imagined existence of some Central Asian (Aryan) race who spoke Sanskrit and who brought Sanskrit language to India when they forcefully entered the country. | | | Several eminent personalities including Swami Vivekanand, Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore and Shri Aurobindo firmly believed that Aryans were homegrown, born and brought up in India. |

| | The Myth of Aryan Invasion of India |
| | To preserve the Aryan invasion idea it was assumed that the Vedic (and later sanskrit) term for ocean, samudra, originally did not mean the ocean but any large body of water, especially the Indus river in Punjab. | | | The Aryan Kassites of the ancient Middle East worshipped Vedic Gods like Surya and the Maruts, as well as one named Himalaya. | | | The interpretation of the religion of the Indus Valley culture -made incidentlly by scholars such as Wheeler who were not religious scholars much less students of Hinduism was that its religion was different than the Vedic and more likely the later Shaivite religion. |

| | The Reviewer: Pick of the Week- September 12, 1999 |
| | The book under review, Update on the Aryan Invasion Debate by Koenraad Elst is a comprehensive account by a leading scholar who has been at the centre of this debate. | | | Though their knowledge of the Vedas and the Sanskrit language was limited, European scholars contrived to find and interpret a few passages in the Vedas as the record of the invasion of fair skinned Aryans and their victory over the dark skinned natives. | | | Where nineteenth century scholars brought the Aryans from Eurasia or even Europe, some today bring them from Bactria or the 'Kurgan' in the Pontic region; where Bishop Caldwell a hundred years ago brought the Dravidians from Scythia, Bernard Sergent today brings them from Africa. |

| | Hindutva and history |
| | The insistence on the indigenous origin of the Aryans allows them to maintain that the present-day Hindus are the lineal descendants of the Aryans and the inheritors of the land since the beginning of history. | | | In order to prove that the Indus civilisation was Aryan, the language has to be deciphered as a form of Sanskrit and there has to be evidence of an Aryan presence, which currently is being associated with the horse and the chariot. | | | This definition of the Hindu excluded Muslims and Christians from being indigenous since their religion did not originate in India. |

| | Hebrew New Testament Book found In India |
| | Although the conceptions of the fatherhood of God and of bhakti were indigenous to India, they received an immense impetus owing to the belief of Christian communities reacting upon the medieval Bhagavata reformers of the South. | | | Though Aryans began to come to South India even before the Christian era, Aryanization of the south was a slow process. | | | It is not over stating the case to say that in this reformation India rediscovered faith and love; and the fact of this discovery accounts for the passionate enthusiasm of the contemporary religious writings. |

| | Aryan Invasion and Fall of the Indus Empire |
| | One religious fanatic who opposed the notion of Aryan invasion during its infancy was Narendra Nath Datta, later known as Vivekananda. | | | Indra, chief of the Aryan gods, is repeatedly referred to as "destroyer of cities" and exterminator of dasyus. | | | It is now accepted that flooding was caused by the Aryans' destruciton of the Indus dam and irrigation system, and was merely another aspect of the genocide. |

| | They came to the conclusion though that it would be difficult for them to establish their rule with the sword, they conjured up the idea of reservations in religion, occupations and privileges for themselves. | | | After the invasion by the Aryans, there was a fierce struggle between them and the natives, who are the Dalits of today. |

| | Books By David Frawley - Myth Aryan Invasion - Aryans In The Ancient Middle East (Page1) |
| | The Indo-European Kassites of the ancient Middle East worshipped Vedic Gods like Surya and the Maruts, as well as one named Himalaya. | | | Any Aryan invasion into the Middle East has been pushed back some centuries, though the evidence so far is that the people of the mountain regions of the Middle East were Indo-Europeans as far as recorded history can be traced. | | | In addition, the Aryans in the Middle East, most notably the Hittites, have now been found to have been in that region at least as early as 2200 BC, wherein they are already mentioned in Sumerian literature. |

| | Page by page they present the current evidence regarding ancient India and make a convincing argument that the Aryan invasion of India simply never happened. | | | The fun part of this book for Hindus is Chapter 9, "Why the Aryan Invasion Never Happened: Seventeen Arguments." Warning: This book is not suitable reading for the closed-minded. | | | In the case of Indian history, the Great Explanation for the last 150 years has been the "Aryan Invasion of India." Never mind that it was at best a wild guess to start with. |

| | Although the groups organizing in the city of Peshawar, Pakistan would later, after the Soviet invasion, be described by the western press as "freedom fighters"--as if their goal were to establish a representative democracy in Afghanistan--in reality these groups each had agendas of their own that were often far from... | | | Brezhnev still warned Taraki that full Soviet intervention "would only play into the hands of our enemies - both yours and ours." During this period, many Afghans fled to Pakistan and Iran and began organizing a resistance movement. |

| | Like all reptilians, these claim to have originated on Terra thousands of years ago, a fact that they use to 'justify' their attempt to re-take the earth for their own. | | | The Antarcticans may consist largely of 'batch consigned' pure- bred blue-eyed, blond Aryans who became victims of Hitler's obsession to create a super race, and as suggested by Harbinson and others most of these may be controlled through mind manipulation and implants, being 'human drones' who are used to keep this hidden society functioning. | | | They are apparently a major part of a planned 'invasion' which is eventually turning from covert infiltration mode to overt invasion mode as the "window of opportunity" (the timespan before International human society becomes an interplanetary and interstellar power) slowly begins to close. |
