| | Vedic civilization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Vedic religion evolved into the Hindu paths of Yoga and Vedanta, a religious path considering itself the 'essence' of the Vedas. | | | The Vedic pantheon was interpreted as a unitary view of the universe with God seen as immanent and transcendent in the forms of Ishvara and Brahman, projected into various deities in the human mind. | | | The use of Vedic Sanskrit continued up to the 6th century BCE, when the culture began to be transformed into classical forms of Hinduism. |

| | Death of the Aryan Invasion Theory |
| | According to the Vedic tradition, the original spiritual and Vedic knowledge was given to mankind by God at the beginning of creation. | | | It therefore helps prove the authenticity of the Vedic culture and our premise that it was the original ancient civilization, a spiritual society, using the knowledge as had been given by God since the time of creation, and established further by the sages that followed. | | | In the Vedic sutras, the word aryan is used to refer to those who are spiritually oriented and of noble character. |

| | The Indic record is second of a Puranic Hindu and Buddhist tradition on the Ganga that arose as an adaptation or reform of the Sarasvati tradition. | | | From the six systems of Vedic philosophy, the Nyaya-Vaisheshika, the Samkhya-Yoga and Purva and Uttara Mimamsa, to the four schools of classical Buddhist philosophy, the Tantric schools like Kashmiri Shaivism, or the materialistic Charavaka school, it has an extraordinary sweep of the human mind and the universe itself. | | | Though Vedic literature has continued to inspire spiritual and social movements on the subcontinent to the present day, it is looked upon by modern scholars as little more than a ruin or fossil. |

| | With the proximity and relationship of the latter with the Bible and Christianity, this kept the Hindu religion as a sidelight to the development of religion and civilization to the West. | | | Since the identification of Christianity and the Middle Eastern cultures, the Hindu religion and Indian civilization are considered as a sidelight to the development of religion and civilization in the west: A deliberate and dishonest undermining of the antiquity and the greatness of the ancient Indian culture. | | | The Vedic God of the sea, Varuna, is the father of many Vedic seers and seer families like Vasishta, Agastya and the Bhrigu seers. |

| | Chapter 12 of Galactic Alignment: The Lost Knowledge of the Ancients |
| | As a respected Vedacharya (Vedic teacher), he is one of the few Westerners recognized in India as an authentic teacher of the ancient Vedic wisdom. | | | Vishnunabhi is the navel of the Hindu god Vishnu, the emanation point of the cosmos, and modern Vedic scholar David Frawley identifies Vishnunabhi with the Galactic Center. | | | And, according to these ancient Vedic beliefs, the galactic alignment we are currently experiencing heralds our shift from a millennia-long descent of deepening spiritual darkness to a new era of light and ascending consciousness. |

| | History of India - Myth of Aryan Invasion - Facets of India : Ancient and Modern |
| | This is the case even though the ancient civilization which has been found in Mesopotamia resembles far more the Hindu, with its Gods and Goddesses and temple worship, than it does these later aniconic traditions. | | | Yet whether the Vedic people were the original people of India, which is the majority view, or whether they migrated gradually into India, the image of the invading and destructive Aryans is totally discredited and should be removed. | | | We should note that Vedic literature, with its many Gods and Goddesses who can be identified freely with one another (what Max Muller called henotheism), is clearly the product of a pluralistic culture and world view, not that of a monolithic culture (which Hinduism has never produced in the historical period either). |

| | Understanding Indian Civilizational Genius - Part 1 |
| | This is all the more poignant to see this travesty played out in an ancient land where humility and service were the values taught and learnt in serene natural surroundings of an ashram, and where intellectual brilliance was a consequence and not the cause of education. | | | With its hallowed Himalayas and holy rivers and mountains and a landmass tread upon by the likes of stalwart divine women and men, veritable avatars of divinity the world never ever saw anywhere else. | | | And it is not helped by a civilizational genius that refuses to define itself in any expression, and which is rooted in principles and ideals congenial for truth seeking and not invested in personalities. |

| | CROSS-CULTURAL TRACES OF VEDIC CIVILIZATION |
| | The Norse Ragnarok involves the destruction of the earth and the abodes of the Norse demigods (called Asgard), and thus it corresponds in Vedic chronology to the annihilation of the three worlds that follows 1,000 yuga cycles, or one day of Brahma. | | | In contrast, in the Norse mythology God is conspicuously absent, and the origin and purpose of the major players in the cosmic drama are very obscure. | | | We do seem to find such traces, and many agree with Vedic accounts in specific details (such as the location of Surt's abode or the sacred buffalo's loss of one leg per world age). |

| | The Focus of Vedic Civilization |
| | So, Vedic civilization was focused primarily on how to get out of this cycle of birth, old age, disease and death, because we do not simply live one time and then we're finished, no. Our life is eternal, or rather, the living entity is never born and never dies. | | | The emphasis on Vedic civilization is spiritual advancement. | | | Some will say Allah, or Buddha or Jehovah, at any rate, the literal translation of the word Krishna means "The All-attractive". |

| | So, either the people who lived in this ancient civilization had to import all of these items from some other place, or more probably, had to import the metals they used to make these beautiful things from somewhere else. | | | This civilization existed from about 3000-2,500 BCE to about 1500 BCE, which means it existed at about the same time as the Egyptian and Sumerian civilizations. | | | Scientists remain very curious about these people, who lived about the same time in history as the ancient Mesopotamians and the ancient Egyptians. |

| | It is believed that India was now inhabited by peoples of two distinct cultures: an indigenous group (often called Dravidians), and the Aryans who were of the same stock as the nomads who inhabited the heart of the Eurasian continent. | | | Little is known about Indian society during the Vedic period because of inadequate archaeological evidence. | | | They invaded India, imposing their social and philosophical ideas and introducing a pattern of life that was to persist for centuries. |
