Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 does anyone know if there is any reference in vedic texts to a relationship between the people of israel and the people of india in ancient times? or how judaism developed in relation to indian spirituality? is there a connection?

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 Well, a lot of Jews fled to India. The Jews were mainly in Cochin and Bombay. When the British came, they wanted to give the Jews a hard time, but a lot of Indians stuck up for them. Then Israel came, and most of the Jews moved to Israel. There is a famous photograph of Indira Gandhi greeting the very last of the Cochin Indian Jews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Hare Krishna, wow, thank you. this is only 2000 years ago though. i was wondering about further back, way back, maybe if they had contact with krsna when he lived in india, or did he also go other places? i have a lot of questions, but dont know where to find this information I have only one question. Had the condition been reversed where Hindus were driven out of India and asked Israel/Jews for protection and land what could have happened ? The answer is jews(majority) would have looked at us Hindus like any other pagan with disgust and contempt. These people(like their semitic counterparts, christians and muslims) are full of bigotry.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 These same jews treated Indian immigrants in 1970s etc. like any other white man. They are racist. This is the experience of some Indians I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 for me this brings up the issue of faith and how it might work on its own apart from what it might be based on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Dear Guest, We have already discussed this subject in this forum, more specifically the background of Abraham, formerly Abram. Ab-Ram meaning the son of Ram, the powerful Indian deity. You should search in this site the terms: Abraham, Moses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Obviously, the Guest who is trying to establish a contact between Israel and India is not racist. Why are you making him pay for the sins he did not commit? It is certainly not a very civilized behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
