Imperialist Propaganda andthe Aryan Invasion Lie

 

In an age where lies are mass-produced by powerful and manipulative governments,

packaged, shipped, and then sold for consumption to the general public through

various media outlets, true scholarship, void of bias, political, or material

motivation, is difficult to come across, if not almost impossible. And

extensive publications that are released, re-edited and then subsequently

re-released, which describe the histories of countless countries subjected to

European colonialism, which are produced by the colonizers themselves, are

certainly no exception. I'd like to briefly discuss a topic that is very

contentious and emotive, especially for Indians, as it is nothing less than an

unprecedented historical scandal that somehow managed to be passed off as

genuine scholarship.

The Aryan invasion theory basically states that the Indian civilization is a

foreign creation, and that the entire culture is actually the invention of an

invading race of blonde-haired, white-skinned foreigners from Europe. It is

these primitive invaders, the theory says, that created an ancient civilization

flourishing with advanced forms of technology and science, along with an

enormous archive of transcendental wisdom, that is collectively known as

India's Vedic empire. Proponents of the theory insist on building insidious and

unproven arguments based on the Aryan invasion scheme, going as far as

suggesting that the Indian natives were illiterate savages. Suspicion

immediately arises when the monumental achievements of an ancient civilization

are accredited to 'foreign white races' for which the scholars have no evidence

of. Yes, the dubiousness of such bold claims becomes apparent to those who

understand the

mechanism of imperialist regimes and of those who follow in their footsteps.

This form of postulation is consistent with the evangelistic mentality of

perceiving indigenous peoples as being incapable of social evolution. This

gives rise to notions of superiority, and this form of supremacy then attempts

to validate the need for imperialism. So in effect, the Aryan invasion theory

also makes the daring claim that all Indians of non-Dravidian background are

essentially the descendents of this intrusive white race of barbaric marauders

from Europe. The fallacies of this theory have been exposed and the truth

continues to surface repeatedly, especially through the fields of archaeology

and Vedic studies, yet it is ignored and rejected by those in positions of

power. Even many of those who no longer believe in the Aryan invasion theory

have been mislead into thinking that the whole project was due to honest

mistakes in scholarship. However, the idea of an Aryan invasion is not the

result

of erroneous research or innocent misinterpretations of history. No, on the

contrary, the Aryan invasion theory is the product of clever premeditation, a

deliberate plot devised by numerous parties for political reasons, with racism

centered at its core. Aside from being a tool used to maintain political

ownership over India, the Aryan invasion theory ultimately promotes the racist

notion that white-skinned Europeans are an inherently superior race of human

beings, a superhuman species of some sort which, under the guidance of an

apparent manifest destiny, colonized the natives of India to eradicate

'barbarianism' and establish 'civilization.'

The Aryan invasion theory goes on to say that this race of primitive invaders

raided India sometime between 1500 and 100 B.C., enslaved the natives, and then

spontaneously created a globally admired civilization that was unparalleled at

the time. The British colonists, whose main aim was to subjugate the people of

India under their authoritative Christian rule, and the prejudiced western

scholars who together engineered the Aryan invasion theory, along with diehard

advocates of the theory, have still not been able to make up their minds as to

when this group of invaders first entered the nation, if they ever did,

assuming that such a race of people actually existed. In fact, the so-called

scholars who promote this propaganda haven't even been able to agree on a

homeland from which this mysterious race of people originated, let alone

generate ample evidence to formulate a convincing argument! They've simply

thrown a

handful of countries randomly into the air, still indecisive as to which one

would create the most believable scenario. So far, every country eastward from

Greece to Iran has been a candidate for the origin of these alleged 'Aryan

invaders', including the Caucasus mountain range located between the Black and

Caspian seas, along with the Eurasian areas of western Russia and Kazakhstan.

As more and more information relating to Indian history is gathered, it becomes

painfully obvious that the 'Aryan invasion' was a fictional event that was not a

part of genuine history. Therefore, every assertion ever made regarding the

history of India that finds it's basis on the Aryan invasion theory has no

foundation in reality, as it possesses no supplemental data to reaffirm such an

absurd claim, and must be rejected accordingly, as it is nothing more than mere

speculative gossip on the part of racist scholars and authors with hidden

agendas. It is these scholars, who write false renditions of

history based on a theory that's grounded on Eurocentric narcissism and

anti-Indian slander, who are responsible for intentionally publishing libel in

the form of calumniating Indian and world history books, millions of which are

sold yearly advocating this bogus notion of 'Aryan invasion.'

'Aryans' are not a race of nomadic European conquerors that rode into India on

horses and chariots, wielding swords used in pillaging and colonizing the

natives, driving them to the southernmost part of the country. They are not the

mighty blond-haired, white-skinned warriors and traveling pirates that,

according to popular belief, mated with the local women and created the Vedic

empire after forcing the indigenous population into submission. No, at best

this representation is a gross falsification and utter distortion of recorded

history, a lie of the highest magnitude. The Aryan invasion theory is a scandal

perhaps unequalled in the world of scholarship, evoking delusions of grandeur in

its advocates regarding the allegedly inherent superiority of the 'great white

race.' One single piece of evidence supporting this malicious campaign remains

to be seen, although many in the western world become infatuated with such

romanticized dogmas and believe them without any further question. Western

audiences quickly accept tales of swashbuckling conquerors as truth, as they

appeal to the primitive instinct of man, and because they have unfortunately

been a reality for many indigenous cultures from around the world. Moreover,

the Sanskrit term 'Aryan' is not even a racial connotation! It doesn't refer to

a wandering race of barbarians, but rather to a person who follows a certain

spiritual code, irrespective of race, color, religion, or nationality. 'Arya'

can be roughly translated as 'one on the path of spiritual evolution', and 'Ya'

refers to the supreme personality of God, Yadu, which is an alias for Krishna.

Thus, a loose but appropriate definition of 'Aryan' would be 'one who is on the

path to God-realization.' To apply this term to define nomadic barbarians, whose

pastimes include the conquering and slaughtering of peaceful people, is

ridiculous to say the very least.

The progenitors of the Vedic civilization were indigenous to India, contrary to

popular belief. A great contradiction that is often overlooked lies here. We

would be safe in assessing the level of mental development-insofar as it

relates to the overall spiritual evolution of a race of plundering nomads

perpetually engaged in the act of conquering societies of peaceful people-as

being elementary, if not primitive. Primeval savages are not enlightened

beings. This is even more evident if we take into consideration that these

violent conquerors that supposedly existed were attributed to destroying any

sign of civilization that they could find upon their mythical entry into India.

How then, could a traveling gang of bloodthirsty bandits with no concept of

civilization, oblivious of cooperation, obnoxiously counterproductive towards

social progression, and thriving off of hatred, war, and destruction, possibly

possess the

mental abilities necessary to be able to produce a profound library of

voluminous, eloquently written literature giving credence to highly advanced

forms of astronomy, philosophy, mathematics, and religion? How could these

roaming barbarians have created Sanskrit, the planet's oldest and most

scientific language and parent language of almost all European and Asian

languages? Are primitive savages to be accredited with creating this enormous

archive of knowledge that gives credence to ages of erudition? In other words,

how could a race of vagabond barbarians possess the capacity to create a highly

advanced civilization? It's simply not possible.

The argument of the Aryan invasion theory becomes even more absurd once the

basic principles of Sanatan Dharm, literally meaning 'the eternal religion', or

better known as 'Hinduism', are explained. The wisdom found in the Vedas

(ancient Indian scriptures) is said to be of divine origin, transmitted to the

rishis, or ancient Indian seers, directly from the cosmos, from sentient beings

residing in higher dimensions of existence that we are incapable of perceiving

with the sensory organs alone. The rishis originally communicated the Vedic

wisdom orally and then eventually transcribed it into literary format, in the

form of the Vedas. The cosmic knowledge contained within the Vedas is not

representative of the tenets of nomadic European barbarians! This should be

quite obvious. Rather, the principles that constitute Sanatan Dharm are said to

be universal truths that can be made to apply to beings living throughout the

entire universe, not limited only to planet Earth or a certain region of our

planet. These truths have been said to exist without a beginning and will

continue to exist without end, hence the name 'eternal religion.' A most basic

and fundamental principle of the eternal religion is that of non-violence.

Taken in this context, the idea of a violent Aryan invasion into India is most

incongruous with basic religious, humane principles that the primitive

barbarians, who the scholars tell us founded the Indian civilization, are

credited with loyally abiding by! Is it possible for tribes of ruthless,

primitive conquerors to be skilled practitioners of non-violence who

simultaneously possess a profound, awe-inspiring understanding of the universe?

The answer needs no acknowledgement as the question answers itself!

The native denizens of India established the nucleus of the Vedic empire along

the banks of the Indus and now dried-up Saraswati Rivers in northwestern India

and Pakistan, although evidence of an advanced civilization of remote antiquity

can be found throughout the country. For example, the Marine Archaeological Unit

of the National Institute of Oceanography found the submerged city of Dwaraka,

whose existence was until recently thought to be purely mythical, along the

coast of Gujarat in 1985. This finding gives credence to the validity of the

Mahabharata civilization of 3,000 B.C., explained in detail in the Mahabharata,

which clearly illustrates the uninterrupted continuity of Indian civilization.

Also, close geographical and geological examination of India, along with

satellite photography, indicates that the massive Saraswati river, which is

mentioned more times than any other river in the Rig Veda (oldest of the

Vedas) and is described as being the life-giving center of the Vedic

civilization, once flowed profusely, and that it dried up before 3,000 B.C.,

prior to any alleged Aryan invasion, thereby proving that the Vedas could not

have been written some 1,500-2,000 years later by a race of foreign invaders!

The oceanic symbolism, numerous maritime references, and astounding depth of

knowledge regarding India's geography, which is vividly described in the Rig

Veda, also prove that the founders of the Vedic civilization were native to

India and could not have arrived from the distant land-locked areas that they

are believed to have migrated from. In fact, the only type of migration that

all genuine forms of evidence point to is that of the Vedic people leaving

India in periodic diffusions, migrating in every direction due to natural

disasters.

Moreover, the Harappan civilization (stretching from the borders of Iran to

eastern Uttar Pradesh, larger than Mesopotamia and Egypt combined) has been

incorrectly labeled 'pre-Vedic' because the archaeological excavations made in

many of its sites unearthed the ruins of colossal urban cities that antedate

all estimates ever given for the Aryan invasion, bringing the giant ancient

civilization possibly as far back as 3,000 B.C. The scholars either

intentionally ignore or carelessly overlook the uncanny similarities discovered

to mutually exist between Harappa and the Vedic culture. Vedic tradition

permeates Harappa, such as worship of fire altars, swastika symbols, seals

depicting Lord Siva, and the legendary omkar symbol, all of which were found

throughout several Harappan sites falsely labeled 'pre-Vedic.' Harappan and

Vedic civilizations share more than a mere resemblance; they are identical. The

similarities cannot

be dismissed as coincidental and could not have developed independently of each

other. The connection between Harappa and the Vedic civilization is obvious.

They are one and the same. Harappa was the final monument of the Vedic Age. It

has even been verifiably demonstrated that Harappa was built using highly

advanced forms of mathematics, Vedic mathematics, derived directly from the Rig

Veda, so it is impossible for this civilization to have been invaded and

destroyed centuries later by an invading race of nomads who wrote the Vedas

after its destruction! A mathematical doctrine belonging to the Vedic

civilization, known as the Sulba-sutras, has been shown to be the source of

both Egyptian and Babylonian mathematics, and the construction of Harappan fire

altars were based on this text. Egyptian texts based on the Sulba-sutras date

back to 2000 B.C., so Harappa clearly must predate even this date. Advocates of

the Aryan invasion theory have been unable to address these issues and

remain silent on such matters.

The Aryan invasion theory is a practice in racism, grounded specifically in

western supremacy and geared towards oppressing the Indians by robbing their

cultural identity and falsifying their ancestral heritage. It asserts that the

Indian culture was an extension of previous developments made in Europe and

that it was dependent on the superior intelligence of Europeans, thereby

justifying the need for colonial rule and militant Christian expansion in

India. It was also a colonization strategy utilized by the British regime to

divide and conquer India by creating enmity between the inhabitants of the

south and north, thus making it much easier to rule over a people who were

plagued by internal dissension and lack of unity. The creator of this

Aryan-Dravidian divide theory himself, Bishop Caldwell, admitted his linguistic

theories to be of "vast political and moral importance", that being to serve the

purpose of

Christian missionary propaganda.

The British regime did not want it publicly known that the indigenous people of

India built a highly advanced civilization in ancient times, one that

eventually spawned the mathematics, science, philosophy, and religion of the

rest of the world. So in order to debase the proficiency of the ancient

Indians, they manufactured the Aryan invasion lie. Through the use of puppets,

including prominent western scholars that work at prestigious institutions such

as Harvard and Oxford and possess significant influence over academic circles,

the British regime continues to enslave the Indian people, working secretly by

promoting unfounded hearsay through the medium of 'Indology' courses taught at

rich American universities. Along with these professors, the British Empire

makes use of leftist Indian pseudo-scholars who wish to maintain a high

position in the status quo, and Marxist Dravidians whose hubris prevents them

from

abandoning their animosity towards Indians that they perceive as being the

descendents of the 'invading Aryans.' These pseudo-scholars, who also have the

power to influence academic circles (which in turn publish material that

influences the entire world), act as successors to dogmatic Christian

missionaries left over from the British colonial era. Their libel is published

on a large scale in India, where the universities quickly begin teaching this

corrupted version of Indian history to its own people. This is a subtle, nearly

undetectable form of slavery, which makes it extremely dangerous, as this form

of spoon-feeding students misinformation under the pretext of 'formal

education' is capable of programming millions in the absence of their

awareness.

German nationalist and Christian missionary Max Muller further advanced the

cause of the British regime and expanded the Aryan invasion theory, being one

of the many major proponents of the theory who was simultaneously on the

British government's payroll. Being well versed in Sanskrit and a world famous

Orientalist who studied at Oxford, people from around the world naturally began

to believe everything Muller said without thinking twice. What's worse is that

in 1853 he introduced the Sanskrit term 'Aryan', which means 'one on the path

to God-realization', into the English language; but he created a false meaning

for it. He used the term 'Aryan' to describe a large family of languages. Under

this phony definition he created even more fallacies, lying blatantly by

speaking of "An Aryan language and its descendents" as quoted by Sir Julian

Huxley. But Muller's racist campaign of degrading Indian culture did not stop

there. He also created a fictional 'Aryan race' that he could associate with his

equally fictitious 'Aryan language family.' These inane, fraudulent notions were

"rapidly taken up in both England and Germany", as noted by Huxley. As a result,

the idea of an 'Aryan invasion' into India became a globally accepted part of

Indian history, although there was no evidence then, as there is no evidence

now, for such a farcical claim. Muller even flatly stated in a letter he wrote

to Duke of Argyll, who was appointed Secretary of State for India in December

1868, that "India has been conquered once, but India must be conquered again

and that second conquest should be a conquest by education." He also added:

"The ancient religion is doomed, and if Christianity does not step in, whose

fault will it be?" Muller's methods of distorting widely available information

on such a large scale, globally manipulating millions of people for the

following one hundred and fifty years, would be impressive

from a propagandist's viewpoint and are beyond the comprehension of the author

of this essay. The icing on the imperialists' victory cake was the rise of

Hitler. Hitler's decision to make the swastika, an ancient Indian emblem

symbolizing peace and prosperity, the official symbol of his Nazi campaign,

along with his habit of openly referring to himself and his Nazi army as

'Aryans', believing that they were members of a supreme human race, resulted in

the inevitable completion of what Max Muller began.

One reason that this slanderous Aryan invasion theory worked and was easy to

accept on a wide scale is because invasions were commonplace throughout India's

history and had been well documented, providing easy accessibility to anyone who

cared to research the topic. This calculated scheme also appealed to the masses

because it remained consistent with the much-popularized Judeo-Christian

tradition, which is filled with tales of invasions and blood baths glorifying

militant colonial expansion. A one-dimensional image of history has been

imprinted onto the minds of the public, making it difficult for people to

perceive the many alternate historical scenarios possible.

Both the antiquity and authenticity of the Vedic civilization are purposely

neglected and its uniqueness continues to go unrecognized. The genuineness of

the Vedic civilization is denied even to this day, debauched and insulted by

the very same minds that idolize the Biblical time scale, believing that the

world was created in November of 4004 B.C., although evidence and sensibility

clearly refute such nonsense. Those who vehemently believed in such absurd

ideologies clearly found it impossible to acknowledge the venerability of the

Indian civilization, and these are the same people who for some reason were

given the task of 'teaching' the world about Indian culture. The defamatory

Aryan invasion propaganda made it so that India could not claim ownership over

any of its monumental achievements-the amazing discoveries of the Vedic

civilization therefore had to be the product of intelligent, Christian,

European minds-or

so the British empire would want us to believe. It also meant that foreign

imposition was necessary to 'civilize' India. Taken from this viewpoint, the

Aryan invasion theory placed Hinduism as an import, as foreign to India as

Islam and Christianity are. These historical forgeries helped to create a

contaminated, untrue perspective of India, forcing people to perceive Indian

culture as simply a combination of foreign influences. India was viewed from

then on, and continues to be viewed by those who unknowingly accept the Aryan

invasion theory as true, as a vast area of land with no cultural, religious, or

national identity of its own, and is therefore treated as such, its future left

entirely at the mercy of imperialistic forces that wish to shape it from the

mold of their own selfish agendas. The collective identity of a nation and its

inhabitants is thus destroyed.
