India History Rewritten

I wish to bring to attention of all about excerpts of a websitde :

www.indusscript.net which is very interesting a must read for all

South Indians to know how Britishers spoiled our History and provided

a derogatory term for all Dravidians.

 

The Indian civilisation, considered to be the product of clash and

subsequent inter mixture of the white-skinned civilised invaders and

the dark savages native to India, has been rightly questioned in

recent years, and the mischievously fabricated history of ancient

India has been thrown in the dustbin of disbelief. Before the

unearthing of the Indus inscriptions, the British administrators and

ethnologists had, to a great extent, distorted the Indian history,

and the Indians had been proved to be foreigners in their own

country.

 

Though it was emphatically retorted by the patriotic intelligentsia,

they succumbed to the

pressure of the Indians themselves educated on the British pattern.

As long as the Indus inscriptions , the first-hand witness of the

Indian history, were dumb, there were wild speculations about the

people and language of India in its prehistory.

 

The word Dravida means 'the country of the hot sun', and Arya

means 'noble'. But both these

words were conceived racially and put in opposition to each other.

Later, they also began to refer to the south Indian and north Indian

languages respectively.

 

In this connection, some words too were understood erroneously. The

Dasa and Dasyu were just the poor and outlawed villagers of the same

Aryan group, but they have been called Dravidian

derogatorily. The Shudras were just the public servants from the same

stock for the welfare of the community, but they have been called non-

Aryans.

 

But now, when the Indus inscriptions have begun to speak, all these

speculations are gradually

vanishing. But, surprisingly, there is a great indignation and uproar

against this emerging truth among the people who gave us false

history and the non-existent IE language.

 

The most primitive form of the so called Aryan speech originated on

the banks of the river

Sarasvati. Though those people speaking that primitive language were

not in a position to give this river a name, they described it thus:

from the mountain (it) flows (and) stops (on the way). This little

Indus clause (4094) Sa ra Sa of the inscriptions appears as the

reduced vocable sa'ras (lake, pond) in the RV, which enabled these

people to call this river saras-vat-I (abounding in lakes).

 

>From the banks of this river those people spread as far west as Indus

and as far east as Ganga. In

the south, they spread upto Tapti. After some hundreds of years of

peaceful life, some natural

catastrophe forced them to disperse in different directions. One

group went to the extreme south, in the country of the hot sun,

another group to the hills and forests of the central India. The

northern group remained in the vicinity of Sarasvati, but the western

group went to the land of the Soma plants on the Iran-Afghan border.

 

At the time of disintegration, their language was gradually moving to

the agglutinative stage.

While the southern and eastern dialects, under the unfavourable

conditions of the nature, limped on the agglutinative stage, the

western and northern dialects reached the inflexional stage.A branch

of the population of the Soma plants later proceeded towards Central

Asia on their way to Europe.

 

The people of the land of the Soma plants started academic activities

and composed hymns on the

Soma plants. But when there was some cultural conflict among them, a

part of the population

severed from them and joined the old stock in the land of the seven

rivers. It was the beginning of

the Vedic culture.

 

But the beginning of the vedic culture is arbitrarily put on the

border of the first millennium BC.

When the mighty river Sarasvati, described so eloquently by the

singers of the RV, dried up in

1900 BC, how the beginning of the RV may be brought down to 1000 BC?

Now the time proposed by

Jakobi and Tilak appears to be more convincing. A time has come when

we have to turn the arrow

migration of the Aryans in the opposite direction.

 

The different names for the term 'year' marks special epochs in the

Vedic history. The year

generally began with reference to the autumn and spring equinoxes and

coincided with the

beginning of seasons. When the sidereal sun was on the star

mRgas'iras on the spring equinox,

the year began with the month of mArgas'IrSa, which coincided with

the beginning of winter.

Similarly, when the sidereal sun was on the star s'ravaNa on the

autumnal equinox, the year began

in the month of s'rAvaNa, which coincided with with the beginning of

the rainy season. The 'year' called himA (winter), samA (summer),

s'arad (autumn), varSa (rain) and vatsara (spring) refers to its

beginning in winter, summer, autumn, rainy season and spring

respectively.

 

Both at the time of Ramayana and Mahabharata, the year began with

mArgas'IrSa, which means

that the sidereal sun was on the star mRgas'iras (between 1-23-20 and

2-6-40) on the spring

equinox. On this basis the maximum difference between the R and Mbh

events may be 960 years.

Now the sidereal sun is on the star uttarabhadrapada 6 degree on that

day. This means that it has receded more than 77 degree back from the

0-point of mRgas'iras, and thus 5100 years have elapsed since the

beginning of Kaliyuga. The RV 7,103,9 says that the 12th month of the

last year just ended before the beginning of the rainy season in the

month of srAvaNa, which means that the sidereal sun was on the star

s'ravaNa at the autumnal equinox. Now it has receded 126 degree

back, so that nearly 9000 years have elapsed. The Manduka-hymn (RV

7,103), which appears

linguistically to be the earliest on account of some agglutinative

Indus forms in it, seems to identify this earliest epoch in the RV.

Therefore, the composition of the RV hymns should have started at

about 7000 BC.
