In Search of Our Roots

[Priitaa]

Haribol prabhus,

 

I'm in the gradual process of putting together a web page I have titled "Origins." In it I would like to give evidence how every bona fide religion and to some degree, culture, originated from India. Am looking for links. Now, I have some from viewzone.com so please don't give any of those. But aside from them, I don't know where else to look. And I know some folks out there have done some of this research just from a few posts I read. Or others may happen know of one from some odd reason. Anyway, folks with links on this topic, please post here! Thanks. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Great idea Priitaa

[Priitaa]

Thanks Thiest. This is something I have wanted to do for a long time, even before the Jesus/India web pages. And since I proved that (or enough), now I want to prove Krishna as the source of all.

 

Any help/links out there would be greatly appreciated.

But it would be meaningful if all the descriptions of the form of God were assembled together. It would not only focus minds on a personal God, but would show the greatness of vaisnavism.

 

A comparison and contrast of the ontological views of the Supreme would also be meaningful as well as:

 

..... praying practices

..... hymns and chanting

..... names of God

..... rituals

..... fasts

..... incense

..... world views

..... after death

..... good and evil

..... the ultimate good

..... etc. etc.

BTW, this site's organizers are quite reasonable people. I wrote them ten years ago about the nonsense they had posted about the "Hare Krishna" movement and they politely asked for a good source. After giving them the Toronto ISKCON temple's Bhaktimarga Swami's name, soon a nice write-up appeared on the net.

this has a mess of links all on this subject

[Priitaa]

Thank you shiva! I will check that out! This will be a great help. I am quite excited about putting together such a site (or two). The only thing there is a shortage of is time. But slowly it will all come together, by starting now.

Yes, well, I would most likely do some of that, though I dont know to what degree. It would depend on what I read that others have to say, then showing the Krishna conscious correlation. But my goal is to show how all religions originated from India and Krishna, and I suspect what you are talking about is more along the lines of Comparative Religion.

 

Thanks for all the links. I will check them out. Are most of them Christian tho? Because I pretty much finished that topic with my Christ and Krishna sites, and am moving on now to Origins. However, I sometimes add to my JC/KC sites.

 

The story about how they changed what their comments (and therefore opinion) of the Hare Krishna movement on their web site is very nice! Good thing you wrote them. Many devotees out there think they have no influence or can't preach much, etc. But its all these little things that add up, and really are not so little.

here is another bit they don't have at vedic empire,

although they mention the connection between polynesians

and india, one thing they missed is that the word Maori

(the new zealanders) supposedly comes from the

word Mauryan, according to religious leaders from the

early part of the 20th century the Maori came from the

Mauryan dynasty , this is explained as possible if

a ship or two left india to do trade in east asia

and got lost and shipwrecked with only a few survivors,

with only ill educated sailors within a few generations they would have lost most if not all memory

of indian culture.

 

also the easter islanders (rapa nui) had the only written script among the polynesians,it is for the most part an exact copy of the Harrapan(indus valley) script,

here is info

Govindaram,

 

Here ya go:

 

Christ & Krishna #1 Jesus/Guru, Pictures section (which has NO pictures, sorry) is the topic - Did Jesus wear Vaisnava tilaka?, The Lost Years (Jesus went to India in his youth), Bible is mistranslated, vegetarianism/misc in the Bible, Talks between Srila Prabhupada & Father Emmanuel, "In My Name Only" (& other misc misunderstandings like bread to fish story, the cry from the cross (he never did it), Church alterations, the last supper), Perfect Questions/Perfect Answers, Conv w/Cardinal Danielou & Srila Prabhupada, etc.

Christ and Krishna, Part 2 – Aquarian Gospel

Explains the "Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ" that wouldn't be understood without Prabhupada's books. These excerpts better clarify Jesus at the Ratha Yatra festival, Jesus and the Deity of Lord Jagannatha/Krishna, he debunks the (kali yuga) caste system and any unqualified priests who follow it. Reveals how he learned to heal, his travels in India, etc. Additionally, excerpt from a recent letter by a devotee validating Christ was at the Jagannatha Puri temple, India, Reincarnation in the Bible, 2nd Council of Constantinople Bible changes dates back to 553 A.D. Plus, Prabhupada quotes about Jesus.

Christ & Krishna Pt 3 – Shroud, Islam, Purana’s, etc.

Scriptural AND scientific evidence that Jesus survived the crucifixion, evidence that the Shroud belonged to Jesus, Christ preached in many countries and to many religions, location of the "real" Promised Land, various scriptures giving mention of Jesus including the Bhavisya Purana where Christ reveals his secret knowledge and plan for his disciples. Proof that Jesus lived in India and left his body (passed on) in Kashmir. More Prabhupada quotes on the topic. (Discover the connection between Radharani and Mother Mary)

shiva, I appreciate this. Especially because I actually started with the very same link from the thread: "Did the Hindus Help Write the Bible." Tho I found it interesting and contained many 'possibilities,' it still left too many questions unanswered. So these extra links you have provided have given me a direction to investigate. Thakns.

Thankyou for the links, the sites are very nicly set out, quite easy to read, the links could be provided to Christians who don't know much about Krishna, so they can learn more on Krishna! and Jesus so they are satisfied both ways!

Thank you Govindaram,

 

Glad you liked it. Yes, that is the idea, so the Christians can read, and see the connection between Jesus and Krishna. But how to provide it to them, I only know of registering it on search enginnes, and have done that.
