If the Sanskrit speaking Purus who composed the Vedas were the founders of the Sarasvati Sabhyata in the Sapta Sindhu area starting 3,300 BCE, could some of the people from this area and surrounding areas, who too spoke other dialects of Sanskrit but may or may have not accepted Vedic philosophy and religious practices such as Fire worship, Polytheism, etc., may have migrated out due to disagreement with the Purus. This outward migration may have taken place around 3,000 BCE.

There is no evidence of any language other than Sanskrit based language having been used in North India at any point in time. So the language of the Bronze Age Sarasvati civilization must have been Sanskrit.

The structure of Sarasvati civilization was similar to the Vedic philosophy and logic.

The only group of Aryans to migrate to Europe were the Alans. Alan means Aryan. They are related to Ossetians in the Caucasus mountains. Their males have the R1a y-chromosome. In 376 AD, they and the Visigoths crossed the Danube river into the Eastern Roman Empire. Another group of Alans crossed the Rhine river in 406 AD. They settled in Orleans. They joined with Aetius and fought against Attila and his Huns at the Battle of Catalaunian Plains in 451.

The Kingdom of the Vandals and Alans was founded in Andalusia. The Visigoths kicked them out of Hispania. They crossed the Straight of Gibraltar into North Africa. They re-established their capital in Carthage. In 455 AD, the ransacked Rome for 2 weeks. They were armed like their cousins the Parthians. They had a lot of horse archers and a few fully armored cataphracts.

They held on to a little bit of western Sicily. They destroyed the Western Roman Navy in 468.

Battle of Cape Bon (468) - Wikipedia
The Battle of Cape Bon was an engagement during a joint military expedition of the Western and Eastern Roman Empires led by Basiliscus against the Vandal capital of Carthage in 468. The invasion of the kingdom of the Vandals was one of the largest amphibious operations in antiquity, with 1,113 ships and over 50,000 personnel. While attempting to land near Carthage at the Cape of Mercury ( Latin : Promontorium Mercurii ; Greek : Ἑρμαία Ἄκρα ; now Cape Bon or, in French , Cap Bon ), the Roman fleet was thrown into disorder by a Vandal fireship attack that took advantage of favourable wind conditions. The Vandal fleet followed up on the action and sank over 100 Roman ships. Some 10,000 Roman soldiers and sailors died in the battle. The Roman expedition was now too scattered to land its troops, leading to its complete failure. [ 1 ] The battle is considered to have ended the Western Roman Empire's chances of survival. Without access to the resources of the former Roman province of Africa , the west could not sustain an army powerful enough to defeat its numerous enemies. [ 2 ] By 435, the Vandals under their king Gaiseric , had established the Vandal kingdom of Africa. In 455, Gaiseric sacked Rome , the former capital of the Western Roman Empire , and the Empress Licinia Eudoxia (widow of Emperor Valentinian III ) and her daughters had been taken as hostages. The plan was concerted between Eastern Emperor Leo , Western Emperor Anthemius , and General Marcellinus , who enjoyed independence in Illyricum . Basiliscus was ordered to sail directly to Carthage, while Marcellinus attacked and took Sardinia , and a third army, commanded by Heraclius of Edessa , landed on the Libyan coast east of Carthage, making rapid progress. It appears that the combined forces met in Sicily , whence the three fleets moved at different periods. [ 3 ] Procopius records that Basiliscus, brother-in-law to Emperor Leo, had been selected as general by the emperor in hope he would balance the growing influence of the Alan Magister militum Aspar who sought to control Leo; however, Basiliscus sought the friendship of Aspar to further his own designs on the throne, and Aspar "repeatedly urged upon Basiliscus that he should spare the Vandals and Genseric". [ 4 ] Ancient and modern historians provided different estimates for the number of ships and troops commanded by Basiliscus, as well as for the expenses of the expedition, although both were enormous sums. According to the text of Priscus , 100,000 ships were assembled, although modern scholars have emended this to 1100, which is closer to Cedrenus 's figure of 1,113 vessels. [ 5 ] Peter Heather estimates a strength of 30,000 soldiers for the expedition and 50,000 total, when including sailors and the additional forces of Marcellinus and Heraclius. [ 6 ] The figures for the money spent on this expedition ranges from the 1,300 centaria of gold reported by Priscus and Procopius (130,000 Roman pounds), to the 64,000 pounds of gold an
Vandal Kingdom - Wikipedia
View from the Gibraltar strait to North Africa where the Vandals crossed into Africa. The Vandals , under their new king Gaiseric (also known as Genseric or Geiseric), crossed to Africa in 429, beginning the Vandalic conquest of Roman Africa . [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Although their numbers are unknown and some historians debate the validity of estimates, based on Procopius 's assertion that the Vandals and Alans numbered 80,000 when they moved to North Africa, [ 8 ] Peter Heather estimates that they could have fielded an army of around 15,000–20,000. [ 9 ] According to Procopius, the Vandals came to Africa at the request of Bonifacius , the military ruler of the region. [ 10 ] However, it has been suggested that the Vandals migrated to Africa in search of safety; they had been attacked by a Roman army in 422 and had failed to seal a treaty with them. Advancing eastward along the African coast, the Vandals laid siege to the walled city of Hippo Regius in 430. [ 6 ] Inside, Saint Augustine and his priests prayed for relief from the Arian Christian invaders, knowing that the fall of the city would spell conversion or death for many Nicene Christians. On 28 August 430, three months into the siege, the 75-year-old St. Augustine died [ 11 ] — perhaps from starvation or stress, as the wheat fields outside the city lay dormant and unharvested. After 14 months, hunger and disease were ravaging both the city's inhabitants and the Vandals outside the walls. The city eventually fell to the Vandals, who made it their first capital. [ 1 ] Peace was made between the Romans and the Vandals in 435 through a treaty between Valentinian III and Gaiseric, giving the Vandals control of coastal Numidia and parts of Mauretania . Gaiseric chose to break the treaty in 439 when he invaded the province of Africa Proconsularis and laid siege to Carthage . [ 12 ] The city was captured without a fight; the Vandals entered it while most of the inhabitants were attending the races at the hippodrome . [ citation needed ] Gaiseric made it his capital and styled himself the King of the Vandals and Alans , to denote the inclusion of his Alan allies into his realm. Conquering Sicily , Sardinia , Corsica , Malta , and the Balearic Islands , he built his kingdom into a powerful state. Averil Cameron suggests that the new Vandal rule may not have been unwelcome to the population of North Africa, as the previous landowners were generally unpopular. [ 13 ] Routes taken by Vandal invaders during the Migration Period , 5th century AD The impression given by sources such as Victor of Vita , Possidius , [ 14 ] Quodvultdeus , and Fulgentius of Ruspe was that the Vandal takeover of Carthage and North Africa led to widespread destruction. However, recent archaeological investigations have challenged this assertion. Although Carthage's odeon was destroyed, the street grid remained the same, and some public buildings were renovated. The political centre of Carthage was Byrsa Hill. New industrial centres emerg

Light skin - Wikipedia
Human skin color Ethnic groups such as Norwegians (top left), Russians (top right), and Koreans (bottom), are examples of people around the world who have light skin. Light skin is a human skin color that has a low level of eumelanin pigmentation as an adaptation to environments of low UV radiation . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Due to migrations of people in recent centuries, light-skinned populations today are found all over the world. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Light skin is most commonly found amongst the native populations of Europe , East Asia , [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] West Asia , Central Asia , Siberia , and North Africa as measured through skin reflectance . [ 7 ] People with light skin pigmentation are often referred to as " white " [ 8 ] [ 9 ] although these usages can be ambiguous in some countries where they are used to refer specifically to certain ethnic groups or populations. [ 10 ] Humans with light skin pigmentation have skin with low amounts of eumelanin , and possess fewer melanosomes than humans with dark skin pigmentation. Light skin provides better absorption qualities of ultraviolet radiation, which helps the body to synthesize higher amounts of vitamin D for bodily processes such as calcium development. [ 2 ] [ 11 ] On the other hand, light-skinned people who live near the equator , where there is abundant sunlight , are at an increased risk of folate depletion. As a consequence of folate depletion, they are at a higher risk of DNA damage , birth defects , and numerous types of cancers , especially skin cancer . [ 12 ] Humans with darker skin who live further from the tropics may have lower vitamin D levels, which can also lead to health complications, both physical and mental , including miscarriage and a greater risk of developing schizophrenia . [ 13 ] These two observations form the "vitamin D–folate hypothesis", which attempts to explain why populations that migrated away from the tropics into areas of low UV radiation [ 14 ] evolved to have light skin pigmentation. [ 2 ] [ 15 ] [ 16 ] The distribution of light-skinned populations is highly correlated with the low ultraviolet radiation levels of the regions inhabited by them. Historically, light-skinned populations almost exclusively lived far from the equator, in high latitude areas with low sunlight intensity. [ 17 ] History of human pigmentation in Europe (with Asia geographic extension). European populations like the Scandinavian Hunter-Gatherers , already had higher levels of light pigmentation variants compared to their ancestors from other parts of Europe, suggesting adaptation to low light conditions thousands of years ago. [ 18 ] Some authors have expressed caution regarding the dark skin pigmentation predictions for Upper Paleolithic Europeans. [ 19 ] It is generally accepted that dark skin evolved as a protection against the effect of UV radiation ; eumelanin protects against both folate depletion and direct damage to DNA .

Is it commonly believed that Aryans originated from Europe? Not necessarily.

Aryan is a corruption of the word Iran, or the other way round. Anyway, Iran and Aryan have the same origin. Iranians are the original Aryan people. I’m saying it as a European, not Iranian.

“Aryan”, as a term, was appropriated by some infamous European ideologies that made it their own, forgetting about its origin. They did the same with swastika. Both were prime examples when symbols of old historical and cultural value were turned into slogans of a deranged ideology.

Aryans don't signify any race in our country too. All those who reside in this country are Indian citizens irrespective of their religions and castes.

The most idiotic argument is Brahmins are Aryans in this country. Brahmins are an integral part of Hindus in India since the ancient time and we have sufficient evidences to prove it through the great epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata and from the other ithihasas too. The places which these epics and ithihasas refer to, are real and existed too. We have the submerged Dwaraka under the sea that shows the ancient Hindu civilization.

Brahmins were regarded as one of the four classes of the Varnashrama which people in India followed it for innumerable years. Aryan invasion theory is a hoax being spread by those people who can never identify themselves as Hindus, first. So, what is their interest about Brahmins living in India?. There are numerous research papers on Aryan invasion theory, but none could prove it occurred. Hence, the theory of invasion by the Aryans who are Brahmins according to the dravidians, failed, repeatedly.

The repeated debate on Aryan invasion theory can only spread rumours about Aryans, not Brahmins as no one can ever show Brahmins are Aryans, first. It's because Brahmins were and are the natives of this country without any doubt. Those talking about Aryans have got no guts in showing Brahmins as Aryans.

Some ANE would back migrate onto the Western steppes and into Northern Europe. They were known as the Eastern hunter gatherers. Together with West Asian people, the Eastern hunter gatherers would give rise to the Indo-Europeans.

Europeans are a mix of Anatolians and the Indo-Europeans who both have their origins in WEST ASIA. Blonde, red hair, light skin and eyes ORIGINATED among people of WEST ASIAN origin. None of these traits originated in Europe.

People living in Indian Sub continent who are ALL fair in complexion have mostly Steppeland genes in their DNA these people are basically Aryan. People living in Indian Sub continent who are Dark in complexion have mostly South Asian Hunter Gatherer genes in their DNA these people are Dravidian [Tamils] basically.

Tamils means NOT the current day Tamil Nadu state people alone, they represent all Sudras & Praiahas [Dalit] lived across Indian sub - continent. Even today, you can see dark skinned and pale dark skinned people living in North, South, East & West of India, they were all Tamils only in ancient India.

The ancient text Manusimriti designate the Shudra as Peasants and Artisans i.e. Farmers and All Craftsman, Shudra is NOT to mean slaves.

Why R1A1 DNA originates in EUROPE, but not in india. why it is it not found or too less in percentage among South Indian people ?

Why M haplogroups DNA is not found in Upper caste Aryans or North indians ? If found why so less ?

If you have read Vedas there are lots of mention about a food made of Horse meat, then why HORSES are not native to INDIA ?

Why copper hoard culture found only with Aryans, but not with Dravidians ?

Why antenna swords found in Sinauli - India which belongs to BMAC - Bactria–Margiana Archaeological Complex ?

Haplo M is found among 60% of modern day indians. It is in every person from south. But here’s the main catch ! It’s only found in depressed classes of northern and tribal peoples of northen india. But, almost to zero to 1-4% among Higher caste Aryans or North indians.

Just like R1A1 not found in south in the same way south’s M groups are not found among R1A1 peoples of north.

So, it is proved beyond doubt that "ALL upper caste North Indians are ALL ARYANS, and all lower caste Sudras & Paraiahs (Dalits) are all Dravidians"

The Rig Veda clearly shows that it was composed in this area and all words for rivers, mountains, animals and plants refer to this area.

The RV mentions many groups of people, the composers were Puru of the Bharata subgroup, other groups are Anu, Brighu, Druhyu, etc. These people lived in other parts of the Saraswathi and Sindhu river basins.

The idea that ANCIENT INDIA WAS NEITHER DRAVIDIAN NOR ARYAN IN A RACIAL SENSE

    • rather than the colonial-era Aryan Invasion Theory or Dravidian separatist claims

but a continuous and flourishing civilization that exists till today is strongly supported by multiple lines of evidence from linguistics, archaeology, oceanography, remote sensing, AI-based reconstructions, and textual studies.

    • Modern research conclusively shows that ancient India was neither ‘Aryan’ nor ‘Dravidian’ in a racial sense. The terms were either cultural (Arya) or geographical (Dravida). The evidence—textual, archaeological, genetic, oceanographic, and AI-based—supports ( rather than the colonial-era Aryan Invasion Theory or Dravidian separatist claims) A CONTINUOUS, INDIGENOUS, AND EVOLVING INDIAN CIVILIZATION.

1. The Meaning of ‘Aryan’ in Ancient Texts

  • The term Arya in Vedic literature (Rigveda, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, and Ramayana) is an attributive term rather than a racial or ethnic category. It refers to noble qualities, righteousness, and cultural refinement, rather than any specific race or biological identity.
  • In the Mahabharata, Lord Krishna uses Arya in an ethical and moral sense, never as an ethnic marker.
  • The Bhagavad Gita (2.2) refers to Arjuna’s duty as an Arya, emphasizing dharma rather than any racial background.
  • The Ramayana describes Lord Rama as Arya Sarva Samashchaiva (Arya—noble, treating all equally), clearly using it as a virtue rather than a race.
  • This refutes the outdated Aryan Invasion/Migration Theory that misinterpreted ‘Aryan’ as an ethnic group.

2. ‘Dravidian’ as a Geographical Term

  • The term Dravida is mentioned in Skanda Purana as a geographical reference to the region of South India, not as a separate racial group.
  • Even Adi Shankaracharya (8th century CE), born in Kerala, was called a Dravida Shishu (child of Dravida) simply because he was from the southern region, not due to any racial identity.
  • Tamil Sangam literature and temple inscriptions never describe ‘Dravidians’ as a separate race, but rather as part of the broader Indian civilization.

3. Archaeological Evidence of Civilizational Continuity

  • Indus Valley Civilization (IVC) sites such as Rakhigarhi, Dholavira, and Bhirrana predate 2500 BCE and show an unbroken cultural progression into later Indian traditions.
  • Harappan script symbols resemble Brahmi and later Indian scripts, showing linguistic continuity.
  • IVC town planning (grid systems, drainage, reservoirs) continued into later Indian city structures, demonstrating an evolving but continuous civilization.
  • No evidence of a sudden racial replacement, as required by the Aryan Invasion Theory, exists.

4. Oceanographic and Remote Sensing Evidence

  • Gulf of Khambhat (Dwarka) marine archaeology suggests submerged cities dated to 7000–5000 BCE, indicating advanced civilizations coexisting rather than being replaced.
  • Sarasvati River Paleo-channel Studies (ISRO, Remote Sensing) show that Vedic texts accurately described the now-dry Sarasvati River, proving the geographical reality of early Vedic civilization.
  • The drying of the Sarasvati (circa 2000 BCE) aligns with the migration of Harappan people to the Gangetic plains, not with any ‘Aryan invasion.’

5. AI-Based Reconstruction & Genetic Evidence

  • AI-based linguistic reconstruction of Sanskrit and Prakrit roots shows an unbroken evolution rather than external imposition.
  • Genetic studies (Rakhigarhi DNA analysis, 2019) confirm no significant Central Asian influx around 1500 BCE, contradicting the idea of ‘Aryan’ invaders replacing earlier inhabitants.

6. Indian Civilization as an Unbroken Cultural Flow

  • From Harappan society to the Vedic age, Mahajanapadas, Maurya, Gupta, Vijayanagara, and modern India, there is no evidence of civilizational destruction and replacement but rather a natural evolution.
  • Cultural traditions such as yajnas, yoga, temple architecture, language (Sanskrit, Tamil, Prakrit), and social structures have persisted for millennia.

The question of the Aryan homeland is complex and has been debated for centuries.

There's no definitive answer, and the evidence supporting India as the origin is contested. Here's a breakdown:

Arguments for India as the Aryan homeland:

  • Linguistic evidence: Indo-European languages, spoken across vast swathes of Europe and Asia, share common roots.
  • Some scholars argue that Sanskrit, an ancient Indian language, might be closest to the original Indo-European ancestor, suggesting India as the origin.
  • However, this view is challenged by the discovery of older Indo-European languages like Hittite.
  • Literar

  • Some scholars argue that Sanskrit, an ancient Indian language, might be closest to the original Indo-European ancestor, suggesting India as the origin.
  • However, this view is challenged by the discovery of older Indo-European languages like Hittite.
  • Literary references: The Vedas, ancient Indian scriptures, mention the "Sapta Sindhu," referring to the seven rivers of Punjab, as the homeland.
  • However, interpreting these texts literally can be tricky, and references to specific locations might be symbolic.
  • Indigenous Aryanism: This view proposes that "Arya" wasn't an ethnic label but a cultural term for "noble" used by various groups across India.
  • This challenges the migration theory altogether, but genetic evidence suggests some gene flow into India.

Challenges to the Indian origin theory:

  • Archaeological evidence: While there's evidence of cultural changes in northwest India around 1500 BCE, it's unclear if this represents a large-scale migration or internal developments.
  • Genetic evidence: Genetic studies show complex intermixing in Indian populations, with no single "Aryan gene." Migrations likely happened, but the extent and timeframe are debated.
  • Social implications: The "Aryan invasion theory," which placed fair-skinned Aryans conquering dark-skinned natives, has been misused to justify racist ideologies. Modern scholars distance themselves from these interpretations.

In conclusion:

While some arguments suggest India as a possible Aryan homeland, the evidence is inconclusive and open to interpretation.

It's crucial to avoid simplistic narratives and engage with the complexities of migration, language evolution, and cultural interaction that shaped ancient India.

The country Name Iran itself means "Land of the Aryans" and Iranshahr. The very close relation between Iranian and Indo-Aryan groups has never been doubted. They share linguistic features to such a degree that Indo-Iranian is generally described as a distinct subgroup of Indo-European. The term Arya has been used by the Iranian people, as well as by the rulers and emperors of Iran, from the time of the Avesta.

The country Name Iran itself means "Land of the Aryans" and Iranshahr. The very close relation between Iranian and Indo-Aryan groups has never been doubted. They share linguistic features to such a degree that Indo-Iranian is generally described as a distinct subgroup of Indo-European. The term Arya has been used by the Iranian people, as well as by the rulers and emperors of Iran, from the time of the Avesta.

The well-attested Indo-Iranian languages are Vedic Sanskrit, Avestan and Old Persian. Sanskrit and Avestan are very closely related languages with exact grammatical principles and numerous cognates [Blood Relative]. You can find words which are exactly identical, like Sanskrit/Avestan naman (name), ushtra (camel) etc.

Language, literature, epics & poems evolves every century. In Vedic/Hindu literature, Asuras (Ahuras) are bad guys while Devas are heroes. In Zoroastrian/Persian literature, Ahuras (Asuras) are heroes while Daevas are the villains.

When the Vedic Aryans moved further, they arrived in the Indian subcontinent they were faced by the native Dravidians, Dravidians that got conquered were placed as low caste in Vedic Aryan society. The Vedic Aryans continued to call the enemy as “Asuras", but the description of the Asuras changed to Dravidians (i e. present day south-Indians) with dark skin, large facial hair etc.

Initially Asuras (Ahuras) were referring to Zoroastrian/Persian and in later days Asuras were used to refer Dravidians. This itself is a proof that Rigveda evolved in Persia i.e. present day Iran and moved to Indian sub-continent, So, it is proved beyond doubt that Indo-Aryans came to India from Iran.

during nazi times, the white man was also called “aryan.” couldn’t help toy with this idea. MARS is the Roman god of war. What is MARS in Greek? ARES! hence ARYAN or ARIAN!

The traditional historical narrative suggests that the Indo-Aryans migrated to the Indian subcontinent around 1500 BCE, bringing the Sanskrit language and Vedic culture. However, several pieces of linguistic, genetic, and archaeological evidence suggest that ancient India may have been primarily Dravidian before Indo-Aryan influence became dominant.

1. Indus Valley Civilization (IVC) and Its Dravidian Links

  • The Indus Valley Civilization (3300–1300 BCE) predates the arrival of Indo-Aryans. Many scholars propose that the Indus script represents a Dravidian language, as some symbols resemble proto-Dravidian words.
  • Brahui, a Dravidian language spoken in Pakistan, suggests an ancient Dravidian presence in North India before the Aryan migration.

2. Linguistic Evidence

  • The Dravidian language family is older than Sanskrit and Indo-Aryan languages in the subcontinent. Many non-Indo-European words in Sanskrit (such as terms for rice, elephant, and flora) have Dravidian roots.
  • Retroflex sounds (ṭ, ḍ, ṇ) found in Sanskrit are absent in other Indo-European languages but are common in Dravidian, indicating Dravidian influence on Sanskrit.

3. Genetic and Anthropological Studies

  • Genetic research shows that the Ancestral South Indian (ASI) population, closely related to Dravidians, existed long before the Indo-Aryans arrived.
  • The Indo-Aryans mixed with indigenous Dravidian populations, leading to a complex genetic structure in modern India.

4. Cultural and Religious Continuities

  • Many Hindu deities and religious practices (e.g., worship of Shiva and mother goddesses) resemble older Dravidian traditions rather than early Vedic practices.

While Indo-Aryan influence shaped later Indian history, linguistic, genetic, and cultural evidence suggests that ancient India was originally Dravidian, with Indo-Aryan elements becoming dominant over time.

The ‘Aryan migration’ or the ‘Aryan invasion’ are theories postulated by linguists, based on the spread of language.

In short, to all accounts ‘Aryan migration’ is simply a misnomer.

That said, the question

What is the Aryan migration to Europe?

is quite nonsensical.

The Aryans were white-skinned, blue-eyed, blond people, very tall. They are the last Cro-Magnons. They entered Europe in 9600 BCE and settled in Doggerland as soon as the ice cap melted (9000 BCE). They inhabited Doggerland until 6200 BCE, when the sea level rose rapidly due to the draining of Lake Agassiz to the ocean. Most of them migrated southeastward along the Danube, dropping off clans as they went. The Koros, ancestors of the Hungarians were one of their clans.

It is assumed that modern humans were migrated from Africa to first by north Africa route but succeeded in very few, second by, so called southern route and disperse entire world.

The question is why Modern human move out of Africa ?

Migration is done by any species is due to lack of food, increase in population and racial conflicts, or due to exploration and adventurous nature. I think, nothing was their to migrate modern human from Africa. Their is plenty of resources at Africa and due to natural calamity, they should move up to some area. Exploration and adventurous nature shows highly civilization of culture.

All the theories regarding origin of modern human is assumption based on some fossils and pattern. Nothing is all accepted and proved. Their is lack in all theories.

My assumption for origin of human is based on my knowledge of Sanatan Dharma, history and science. Story start with the single land called Pangaea. By the interference of GODs or Aliens, Human beings are being civilized. In Hinduism, Daksha Son of Brahma is working for this. Due to death of Sati, and Lord Shiva’s fury, continent drift starts and Lord Shiva get segregation from main land [Tibet plateau from Godwana Land]. After long time, Himalaya appeared and Devi Parvati and Ganga take birth to meet Lord Shiva.

Humans were always available to most of the part of this earth. No major migration took place. India still have thousand of different languages but Hinduism in soul and DNA. No Dravidian, No Aryan language. No Black, No White.

All exist here as all start from here.

RAIN-VARISHA-VARSHA

VARSHA BHARITA = BHARATA VARSHA.

There is recorded history how people travelled from North of Syria to Iran and then to Sindhu valley. When the immigrants saw a great wide river, they called it SINDHU, which means a great ocean. The next river was named as SARAS WATI, a river which has great MANY PONDS. They had never seen an Animal with a long Nose-Trunk. So they named it HASTIN-animal with a huge HAND. They had not seen a Lion. They named it KESHARI-a hairy ANIMAL. Finally when they came in contact with a river which was flowing with great Force, they named it GAN GA-flowing with force.

Pl do not try to fool yourself that people seek Desert. Only camels and horses can stay in Desert.

Why did people migrate from these lands, which were not deserts originally ? The answer lies, in that today, all these lands are sources of Petroleum underneath the land, which proves they were all very fertile lands with huge vegetation earlier, which after loosing rain became petroleum hydrocarbons underneath as the Desert mud piled up and covered the vegetation and the earth pressure converted these hydrocarbons in to oil. India is the only land which does not have any petroleum underneath.

So please do not forward any theory of human migration from India. It is false

And these Group of people Know as Dravid Man. The theory was pushed up for Dravidian Narrative.

And this Aryan Invasion Theory is mainly base on six thousand years time period biblical World (BIBLE Old statements said that whole World is only four hundred years old from Christ Birth.). Because that time most of the intellectual were biblic seekers. Maxmuller was One of them. If biblical six thousand years history was true, then all other living historical proof will amended as per this biblical chronology. Hence the Aryan invesion Theory get created and the Invasion was happened in between 2000 BC to 1500 BC.

But Maxmuller was forget about the evidence in Vedas of Saraswati river exist in between sindhu-Ganga basins. This Saraswati river got invisible in between 2500 BC to 2000 BC. This time period long ago almost 2000 Years before Christ Birth.

Its aslo most of archeological sites Like Dholawira, Sanauli etc found in india. There are found Some Pottery, Skeleton of Horses, Chariots, femel Soldiers skeleton etc.

And last modern science are trust on DNA Samples. And DNA Samples also provide some truly evidence to us.

This are some topics that demolished the theory like Aryan invesion. And also Aryan migration.

Hypothetical racial grouping The Aryan race is a pseudoscientific historical race concept that emerged in the late-19th century to describe people who descend from the Proto-Indo-Europeans as a racial grouping . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The terminology derives from the historical usage of Aryan , used by modern Indo-Iranians as an epithet of "noble". Anthropological , historical , and archaeological evidence does not support the validity of this concept. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The concept derives from the notion that the original speakers of the Proto-Indo-European language were distinct progenitors of a superior specimen of humankind, [ 5 ] [ 6 ] and that their descendants up to the present day constitute either a distinctive race or a sub-race of the Caucasian race , alongside the Semitic race and the Hamitic race . [ 7 ] [ 8 ] This taxonomic approach to categorizing human population groups is now considered to be misguided and biologically meaningless due to the close genetic similarity and complex interrelationships between these groups . [ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] The term was adopted by various racist and antisemitic writers during the 19th century, including Arthur de Gobineau , Richard Wagner , and Houston Stewart Chamberlain , [ 12 ] whose scientific racism influenced later Nazi racial ideology . [ 13 ] By the 1930s, the concept had been associated with both Nazism and Nordicism , [ 14 ] and used to support the white supremacist ideology of Aryanism that portrayed the Aryan race as a " master race ", [ 15 ] with non-Aryans regarded as racially inferior ( Untermensch , lit.

At least today, the most powerful and efficient countries throughout the globe are of European origin and all other similar cultures that are deemed to be “White”. There is no doubt about that.

Look around you and you will see three cultural spheres of poor, moderate and exceptional exist, till today, and throughout all of the continents of the earth? Interestingly, these 3-broad spheres of cultures also tend to live relatively near each other! Isn’t that a great giveaway!?!

Think about it: We have white tribes, African tribes and Chinese/Japanese with ‘squinted’ eyes. If you mix and marry any of these 3 groups together, will you not thus obtain similar feature that we observe today throughout the earth?!?

Antiquity of India No Aryan Invasion

Ancient Indian Vedic Civilization

Introduction

India has a long ancient history of Vedic civilization independent from the world as such the world came to know about India and Indian culture only after the raid of Alexander the Great in 326 B.C. Once it was a global culture and restricted to the Indian subcontinent after the Ice age on the earth before 18000 years ago as reported by the Hamburg Institute of Meteorology of Max Planck Society Germany on the project ‘Climap’ German News Sept. 89 Page 25.

Vedic culture has flourished on the earth 18000 years ago before the ice age. The scientific principles incorporated in Veda were rediscovered at Indus Valley and Grand Canyon 11 thousand years ago.

Another major event was the discovery of the ancient cities of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro in the 1820s. with this, the great history of Indian culture came into light and became the most important for the Archaeologist, Historians, Linguistics, and Anthropologist to work on the Indian culture, Veda and Sanskrit.

The discovery of the wonder of the world underground cave city Grand Canyon N.A. Indus Valley and ‘Temple complex’ from one rock Kailash, Ellora India explores Vedic Civilization survived for over 11000 years as India’s antiquity. Veda is the first Word of the civilized person on the Earth "What can be more tedious than the Veda, and yet what can be more interesting, if once we know that it is the first word spoken by the Aryan man?" These are words of F. Max Muller, who has the credit to introduce Vedas in the world.

All have been included in the world heritage list by UNESCO.

By Dr. C.P. Trivedi

Who is Dr. C.P. Trivedi Environmental Scientist, Prof. of Botany & Vedic Scientist works independently as a writer and researcher entered into Religion, Philosophy,, Archaeology, and History, with his scientific interdisciplinary approach traced the Antiquity of India 11bthousand years and much more? His 18 books have been published in India and Germany.

. Conspiracy to deny antiquity of India

Western scholars have taught that the Vedas are the religious scriptures of the Hindus and the Vedic hymns have been revealed in trance during meditation, and beyond interpretation? Nobody has dared to condemn it? Because due to the long slavery under Muslim, and British rule. They have brought forward ‘Aryan invasion theory to deny antiquity of India in the light of Biblical Theory with the discovery of Indus Valley, 1920 by Sir John Marshal. Which has put India in the list of the Advanced civilization in the world.

The discovery of the Indus Valley, in 1920 by Sir John Marshal has put India in the list of the advanced civilization in the world. It was a matter of inferiority complex in Europe as against their faith in the Biblical theory. As also the report of Ney York Times 1909 on underground cave city at Grand Canyon Arizona N.A. the Smithsonian Institute of America keep secret the discovery of Grand Canyon N.A. known as forbidden Archaeology of America.

The Indus Valley script, the petroglyphs at Grand Canyon, and Vedas were beyond the interpretation of the scholars.

Veda is the first word of the civilized person on the earth. "What can be more tedious than the Veda, and yet what can be more interesting, if once we know that it is the first word spoken by the Aryan man?" These are words of F. Max Muller, who has the credit to introduce Vedas in the world. They have touched the zenith of the creation scientifically with physical development more advanced than modern Science. It was beyond the imagination of the European scholars.

Now it is unanimously accepted that the Vedas are the oldest literary monuments of the human civilization on the earth as such they represent the common heritage of mankind on the earth.

With the modern scientific development on the earth, Western scholars have a monopoly on world history, India was a slave for more than seven hundred years under the Mughal Muslim and British rule to deny the antiquity of India and to rule over India with divide and rule policy, they have brought forward the ‘Aryan Invasion Theory and divided Indians into ‘Hindu- Muslim, North Indian Aryan and south Indian Dravida’ to justify British rule that as Aryan came from outside of India, in the same fashion we came in India, the Sanskrit is more close to European Languages, hence we are bothers to influence ‘Brahmin’, The British have turned with the great revolution of 1857 led by Mangal Pandey a ‘Brahmin’ together with Muslims. ‘Allaha Ho Akbar’ and ‘Har Har Mahadeva’ was one with ‘Vande Mataram’ I bow to the motherland.to take revenge of the year !857 revolutions against British rule, which has shaken the British Emperor at the UK, they have divided converted and non-convert residents of ‘Hindustan into ‘Hindu and Muslim, which were living together peacefully under ‘Mughal’ rule.

With a conspiracy to check the progress and create unrest in the Indian subcontinent ‘Hindustan’, they have divided it into converted and non-convert ‘Hindu’ in the name of so-called ‘Hindu Religion’ Because in the west the Religion is a political movement to spread its faith or territories with sword or Bullet and in East India, it is individual ‘Dharma’ duty with ethics for inner transformation of the self. In this sense west is ‘ Wasteland’ and India is the most advanced. The ‘Hindu’’ was never a Religion like Christian or Muslim. It has pushed ‘Hindustan’ into communal riots forever.

To rule over India Lord M Cauley brought a new education policy to cut off Indians from the Indian culture, European scholars taught that the Vedas are the religious scriptures of the Hindus and the Vedic hymns have been revealed in trance during meditation of the Seers, and beyond interpretation? Nobody has dared to condemn it? Because due to the long slavery under Muslim, and British rule Indians were mental slaves. The Sanskrit scholars were unaware of the Science in the Veda, they have given the answer that the Vedas are the books of spiritualism and interpreted the same as the revelation of God. Although God is without attribute and character, he is not involved in any action, but every act is due to him.

Appendix-1I

Scientific Index to the Vedic Deities

The Vedic Science is in Metaphors and riddles with symbolic. The Language and script change with time, they have used Lexicography, where each word or sentence has a symbol. The symbols have a vast ocean of knowledge in the background.

Association of Vedic terminology with myths of mythology is a product of a long history of time and climatic conditions. Along with this due to the coded language of the Vedic hymns, the subject matter is complex and difficult to interpret.

Family - The phenomena of nature have been explained through family relationships.

The whole creation is a family under the fundamental energy, from where the creation came into existence. The creation is working as a system, through the transformation of energy with actions and interactions in cyclic manners (ÿg. 10-90-16). The earth, where life is present, also represents a family, where the sky is father, the earth is mother soma- magnetic energy is brother, Aditi-nature is the sister (ÿg. 10-191-6) Accordingly every natural force and its related phenomena have been described as different families.

Indus Valley Vedic Civilization

Introduction

The Decipherment of Indus Valley seals explores Vedic Sanskrit Lexicography as an intellectual language. As also it explores the antiquity of India’s Vedic culture as part of the life of Indians. After natural catastrophes, global warming, and ice age, the people moved towards villages to maintain harmony with nature. India’s village culture and the Europeans could not decode the Vedic language code and the height of the Vedic development. To worship the plants was superstition for them, although to worship plants is the most scientific as the plants are a source of life with photosynthesis on the earth. It was the main reason behind their ‘Aryan’ invasion hypothesis without basis. Aryan’ means well-civilized person. It has nothing to do with religion, caste, color, race, or creed. North India is near to the mountains cold and south is near to the seashore warm, it is the cause of the color difference between the north and south Indians. Hence Aryan invasion was a conspiracy to deny the antiquity of India. It is the Vedic Scientific Heritage of Mankind on the earth, which emphasizes the whole earth is one family like a global nest, a village. Biotechnology was the main business of Indus Valley as reflected on the copper tablets. The rich biodiversity of the Indian subcontinent is proof of the original inhabitants of the Indian subcontinent.

Result and Conclusion

Indus Valley Vedic Civilization

Indus Valley Vedic Civilization. No Aryan Invasion They enlightened the world that Life is a trinity of three immortal.

Life is a trinity of three immortal

Hear all the Gods my words, Sarasvati give ear together with Puramdhi and with holy thoughts (Rig-Veda 10-65-14)

Speak forth the three words, the words which light precedeth, which milk this udder that produces nectar.

Quickly made manifest, the Bull hath bellowed, engendering the germ of plants, the infant (Rig. 7-101-1)

The Sarasvati thought words ensign of existence with the chemical energy of food, which generates thoughts in mind and vital energy ensign of life manifest with action, the germ of plants and infants as well.

The three immortal; the resonant vibration of words precede light, they together produced the nectar, which milk this udder with cell body, the ensign of existence. With this, the fundamental energy Soma manifested like Bull, and Bull bellowed engendering germ of plants, the infant

The speed of the resonant waves is more than the light, which stimulates the action.

1. The immortal underlying space of sky imparted mass to elementary particles with resonant vibration, ensign of the existence of all.

2. The immortal chemical energy of photosynthesis feeds the living beings.

3. The immortal DNA with resonant words is light of life for all

'Sarasvati' is not a terrestrial river, the immortal phonon is flowing in countless channels with life-like streams in the ocean of life. The discovery of the fundamental energy is worldling with its dualistic force photon and phonon has been engraved on Gold plate excavated at Indus Valley. It was the highest discovery. and was confirmed at grand canyon. The immortal phonon is the smallest unit of Voice vibrations. It follows the immortal DNA from generation to generation with new life and brought forward the infinite nature 'Aditi' in action.

Ggld plate Indus Valley India Einstein’s Ynification theory Showing that phonon and photon are connected at the molecular lever with the complementary wavelength. In the centre DNA is vessel of Life

The phonon and phonon are like two parallel streams of a river, their flow has been halted with the formation of the atom, and the phonon with underlying skyspace imparted mass to three subatomic particles, where fundamental energy appears in the center and binds them in series.

ensign of the existence of all. The fundamental energy is in the center like a pillar.

The immortal phonon stimulates the DNA with the origin of life and beholds all existing.

By their power these Twain in close succession move;

They go as playing children around the sacrifice.

The electromagnetic rays travel with vibrations and sound in close succession with actions and interactions.

;‘‘One of the pair beholdeth all existing things; the other ordereth seasons and is born again’’ Rg.10- LXXXV

-18b. One holds all existing things is phonon, which is immortal, and other photon undergoes synthesis and degradation with time and is born again.

The immortal phonon follows The A„vins nucleotide pair from generation to generation with new life.

It has been engraved on the Gold plate to express the immortal phonon that beholds all existing.

With regards.

India’s village culture and the Europeans could not decode the Vedic language code and the height of the Vedic development. To worship the plants was superstition for them, although to worship plants is the most scientific as the plants are a source of life with photosynthesis on the earth. It was the main reason behind their ‘Aryan’ invasion hypothesis without basis. Aryan’ means well-civilized person. It has nothing to do with religion, caste, color, race, or creed. North India is near to the mountains cold and south is near to the seashore warm, it is the cause of the color difference between the north and south Indians. The Rev. Robert Caldwell 1814 used the term Dravidian for People of south India. India have many languages but Sanskrit ia common in all rituals and traditions all over India. In the South they follow ‘Krishna Yajurveda’ and the North Indians follow ‘Sgukala Yajurveda’ both are Vedic branches.

In the same manner in the Indian culture there is no code of conduct for the change of the religion or culture, but the European scholars have interpreted that the white fair ¶ryan Indra has defeated the black demons without nose and pushed them southward, the black people of south India known as Dravidic are the original in habitants of India converted by the ¶ryans in to the Vedic culture. In actual sense war and battle are symbolic metaphors to express the molecular reactions.

The Indra represents electricity and demons means obstacle, it has been indicated that black spots on the sun’s surface are the obstacles in the luminosity of the sun, due to the charge of the Indra-electrostatic energy with the formation of electromagnetic energy the black spots have been destroyed. It has been expressed symbolically to indicate the sun spots. The existence of the sun spots on the sun’s surface in Rohita sÊkta of the Atharvaveda have been indicated by white sons of black mother symbolically due to the solar flares coming out from the sun spots with the formation of electromagnetic energy.

The battle described between the ¶rya and the black demons-Dasyu is a symbolic expression for the removal of the obstacle during the natural phenomena. The ¶rya means well cultured- good system and the black demon represent the obstacle during the reaction.

In the same fashion the essence of the creation has been described as the four horned buffalo, where four horns are symbolic expression for the four dimensional structure of the atom, where the three fundamental particles- electron, proton, neutron generates the magnetic energy, due to the spinning of the vibratory electrons around the nucleus. It is the base or essence of the creation. The essence has been termed as Ghrita-clarified butter, it means the essence of the buffalo milk is ghee, in the same fashion the four dimensional structure of the Atom has the essence of the creation.

Further the structure of the DNA has been expressed through the buffalo, which has four horns four bases with two head- two strips and three legs represents triplet code of three bases known as genetic code Rig-Veda 4-58

Hence Aryan invasion was a conspiracy to deny the antiquity of India. It is the Vedic Scientific Heritage of Mankind on the earth, which emphasizes the whole earth as one family like a global nest, a village. Biotechnology was the main business of Indus Valley as reflected in the copper tablets. The rich biodiversity of the Indian subcontinent is proof of the original inhabitants of the Indian subcontinent.

The Sanskrit which is language of Brahmins and Vaishnavas is purely Middle East Language that is very much related to persian and Turks language. Before 5000 years in India Turkish language which was also called as Avesta was not present in India. Then the language present in India was Shaivans language. In fact, old Tamil, kannada, Telugu and Malayalam merge to form Shaivans language before 5000 years. Shaivans were ruling India with Shaivism. Please note that Shaiva-Brahmins are not Shaivans, actually they are the Vaishnavas appointed in Shaivan’s temples to worship Shaivans Gods after Shava

In fact, old Tamil, kannada, Telugu and Malayalam merge to form Shaivans language before 5000 years. Shaivans were ruling India with Shaivism. Please note that Shaiva-Brahmins are not Shaivans, actually they are the Vaishnavas appointed in Shaivan’s temples to worship Shaivans Gods after Shavans were enslaved by Aryans by slapping Caste System and monopolising education. Horses found in India only after the Aryans came to India. The word for Horse in Sanskrit and Turks language is Turaga. Turks were good traders of well trained, saddled and reined horses, therefore their county is called as Turkey.

Invasion of Aryans can be seen in Prahlada Charitra, wherein Narada proclaims that Shaivans God Shiva is not God and only Aryans God Vishnu is the God of the whole world. Hiranya Kasyapa and Pahallada were Shaivans. Killing of Mahabali by Vamana the Aryan is also an example for Aryan and Shaivans Clash.

The word Dravidian also serves as proof for that the Aryans are not Indians because the word Dravidian mentioned in Vedas actually refers to Africans and Africa is very near to Middle East hence it also proves that Vedas are not written in India instead it is written in Middle East initially and got enriched by snatching the Shaivans knowledge in India those were very rich in Knowledge and civilisation like Mohenjo Daro and Harappa.

Instead of crying Aryans invasion theory is wrong, let the Brahmins and Vaishnavas disprove the prevailing many proofs of Aryans migration.

Alexander and the Greeks along with recruits from Central Asian plains in Alexander's army, the Scythians, the parthians, the Kushans and the Islamic invaders as a fact came to India and became a part of the heterogenous ethos of India. The genetic evidence is based on the haplogroup R1a1a. There are two sources of these haplogroup. One is that which came with these invaders and the other is that which developed autochtonously indigenously amongst some native Indians. The Chenchu tribals a Dravidian tribal group, the Manipuris with mongoloid features in the extreme North East , and other uninvestigated Indian natives are examples of the autochtonously developed R1a1a posessing groups. Contrary to the much touted skewewd data that Brahmins have the highest percent of R1a1a one can see that many nob-vrahmins in North West like Jats, khatris and Gujjars and many other non-brahmin castes in Punjab and Rajasthan have higher or comparable R1a1a haplogroup. It is totally and expectly an effect of geography and every 200 km you travel into India you encounter changes in features and culture. Further consider the sample size to be taken as statistically valid. It has to take account of 7000 years of population time area under the curve and then sample size across different times need be collecredcti make a valid genetic picture. For ridays genetic picture you may find such a large size but to find a valid sample size say even on 100 A D. would be impossible. To conclude direct evidence such as existence of the perrenial river Saraswati and the tim range when it was perrenial is a much more reliable source. Genetics to tell story of India is hogwash. Cleaning from our epics is more reliable.

There are plenty of evidences are there for Aryans came to India from Central Asia. Read the following write up on this subject which discuss about all these evidences also

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as self-evident - German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer.

Some people say "Aryan and Dravidian race is a complete hoax", but the whole world knows that India have two distinct major linguistic group namely Indo-Aryan [Indo-European] and Dravidian Language group, namely Sanskrit and Tamil. Even though the word Dravidian coined only in later days, since it is used to represent a Distinct linguistic group. We say it as Aryan and Dravidian races namely Aryans and Ancient Tamils. NO ONE CAN DENY this fact, so "Aryan and Dravidian race is NOT a hoax"

In recent decades, the idea of an Aryan migration into India has been disputed only by Indian scholars, who claim Indigenous Aryans scenarios [Only because they do NOT want to be identified as OUTSIDERS to India]. However, these alternate scenarios are rooted in traditional and religious views on Indian history and identity and are universally rejected in mainstream scholars. Iranians are the original Aryans who invaded India from the west, this what we call it as ARYAN Invasion / Migration.

The country Name Iran itself means "Land of the Aryans" and Iranshahr. The very close relation between Iranian and Indo-Aryan groups has never been doubted. They share linguistic features to such a degree that Indo-Iranian is generally described as a distinct subgroup of Indo-European. The term Arya has been used by the Iranian people, as well as by the rulers and emperors of Iran, from the time of the Avesta.

The well-attested Indo-Iranian languages are Vedic Sanskrit, Avestan and Old Persian. Sanskrit and Avestan are very closely related languages with exact grammatical principles and numerous cognates [Blood Relative]. You can find words which are exactly identical, like Sanskrit/Avestan naman (name), ushtra (camel) etc.

The list of Vedic Sanskrit gods are - Indra, Varuna, Mitra, Soma, Rudra, Vishnu & Agni.

The list of Mittani [Syria] gods are - Indra, Varuna, Mitra and Nasatyas (Ashvins)

This proves that Vedic Sanskrit gods are similar to that of Mittani [Syria] gods. And Mittani language being older than Sanskrit proves that Rigveda originated in Syria / Iran and then moved to India.

Language, literature, epics & poems evolves every century. In Vedic/Hindu literature, Asuras (Ahuras) are bad guys while Devas are heroes. In Zoroastrian/Persian literature, Ahuras (Asuras) are heroes while Daevas are the villains.

When the Vedic Aryans moved further, they arrived in the Indian subcontinent they were faced by the native Dravidians, Dravidians that got conquered were placed as low caste in Vedic Aryan society. The Vedic Aryans continued to call the enemy as “Asuras", but the description of the Asuras changed to Dravidians (i e. present day south-Indians) with dark skin, large facial hair etc.

This is another proof for Rigveda evolving in Syria / Iran [Persia] and moved to Indian sub-continent. Initially Asuras (Ahuras) were referring to Zoroastrian/Persian and in later days Asuras were used to refer Dravidians.

We have all the proofs for Aryan invasion in Rig Veda itself. Dasyus were the people who lived in India when the Aryans arrived here. They were having a dark-skin and flat noses. Battles depicted in the R̥gveda are directly referring to Aryans migrating into India which is native land of dark skinned people Dravidians. Rig Veda - Dasa: 54 hymns and 63 verses and Dasyus: 65 hymns, 80 verses. The accounts of conflict between the Aryans and the Dasas and Dasyus are acknowledged in Rig Veda.

Rig Veda describes that Dasas and Dasyus were people who do not perform sacrifices. Aryans had to fight with these people for land. The Aryans defeated them and did not treat them well. The Aryan chief who overpowered Dasyus were called dasyuhatya (slaughter of the dasyus) this is repeatedly mentioned in the Rig Veda.

Aryan by Birth – Upper Caste Fair Skin NORTH Indian (Brahmin, Kshatriyas & Vaisyas)

Dravidian by Birth – Lower caste Dark Skin Sudras & Paraiahs / Panchamas (Dalits / Tribes)

It is a very common and well known fact that across the globe White people feel that they are superior and enslave black people. That is the case in Africa and America too. Even in India even though we Indians had very old civilization then the British. The British people who came here for TRADE enslaved Indians. Same thing happened in Ancient India. Even though Dravidians had a OLDER Civilization, Aryans made them as Sudhras claiming white people are superior and black people are inferior.

People living in Indian Sub-continent who are ALL fair in complexion have mostly Steppe land R1A1 genes in their DNA these people are basically Aryan. More than caste it is the Skin color which decides whether someone is Aryan or Dravidians. People living in Indian Sub-continent who are Dark in complexion have mostly South Asian Hunter Gatherer genes in their DNA these people are Dravidian [Tamils] basically.

Tamils means all Sudras & Paraiahs / Panchamas (Dalits / Tribes) lived/living across Indian sub - continent. Even today, you can see dark skinned and pale dark-skinned people living across India in all places, they were all Tamils only in ancient India. "Justice H N Nagamohan Das Commission panel" says, Indian Vedic philosophy lead to social inequality and caste system, All these happened because of Brahmins, Upanishads, Manusrmiti, and epics like Mahabharata and Ramayana...” the commission said in its July 2020 report, which the BJP government formally accepted.

The panel report also says that people belonging to Dravidian race resided in North India once upon a time. “Many foreign invaders such as ARYANS, Persians, Greeks, Huns, Turks, Mongolians, Europeans etc came and fought against local people. The rulers who won the war developed relations with local women and consequently emerged mixed races”

About Kasthriyas, who ever had the courage and willpower they conquered the land [Still it is very difficult for a Sudhra to achieve this], for them even if they are from lower caste, Brhamins did NOT had any choice. So, Brahmins accepted who ever won the war as Kasthriyas except Muslim. Kasthriya Kings always married fair and good looking girls mostly. So, Kasthriyas community have a mix of Upper caste and lower caste DNAs in them.

The ancient text Manusmriti designate the Shudra as Peasants and Artisans i.e., Farmers and All Craftsman, Shudra is NOT to mean slaves.

Read the following facts about DNA Studies.

Why R1A1 DNA originates in EUROPE, but not in India. why it is it not found or too less in percentage among South Indian people ?

Why M haplogroups DNA is not found in Upper caste Aryans or North Indians ? If found why so less ?

If you have read Vedas there are lots and lots of mention about Horses, then why HORSES are not native to INDIA ?

If Aryans lived in India 5,000 years back means, then why there were NO Horse seals in Harappan IVC sites ?

Why copper hoard culture found only with Aryans, but not with Dravidians ?

Why antenna swords found in Sinauli - India which belongs to BMAC - Bactria–Margiana Archaeological Complex ?

Haplo M is found among 60% of modern day Indians. It is in every person from south. But here’s the main catch ! It’s only found in depressed classes of northern and tribal peoples of northern India. But, almost to zero to 1-4% among Higher caste Aryans or North Indians.

Just like R1A1 not found in south in the same way south’s M groups are not found among R1A1 peoples of north.

So, it is proved beyond doubt that "ALL upper caste Fair Skin North Indians are ALL ARYANS, and all lower caste Dark Skin Sudras & Paraiahs / Panchamas (Dalits / Tribes) are all Dravidians"
