shivaji Posted June 26, 2002 Report Share Posted June 26, 2002 I have learnt that there are similarities between Hindu and American Indian culture. Can anyone shed more light on this? I was told that someone from the Bhaktivedanta Institute wrote a paper/pamphlet on the similarities between the 2 cultures. Does anyone know anything about this? I believe that in American Indian culture, they also believe that time can be split into 4 yugas, represented by the 4 limbs of the bull. Interesting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gauracandra Posted June 27, 2002 Report Share Posted June 27, 2002 I have heard this as well. But I have never noted down a source. I think we should keep track of these sorts of similarities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desperate Posted July 6, 2002 Report Share Posted July 6, 2002 Quite true. In fact a very nice reading would be 'The purpose of Yoga' by Mr. Gopi Krishna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gauracandra Posted July 6, 2002 Report Share Posted July 6, 2002 Do you have any quotes from that book? I'm curious of similarities between Native American culture and Indian culture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Mr. Gene D. Matlock, who was quoted in this site, in the thread entitled "Who Was Abraham" (Viewpoint Internet Site)has studied the connection between the Indian tradition and the American Indian culture. Extremely interesting. Search "Gene D. Matlock" in the Net, or the terms MEXICO and INDIA and CONNECTION. His reseach and philological intuition are impressive.
