Jyotish Spreading in the Old World (incl Sanskrit)-origins in Atlantis?

March 8, 2005

Thanks for the info, Juliana. Guess I'll have to study up more on the

Atlantis angle. But from what I've picked up from google there seems to be a

certain convergence within the Gods in various cultures. Sad to know that

Dionysus might be dead. But then he's supposed to be the God of illusion

isn't he

Hello dear Juliana and the List Members,

Hare Krishna.

" No matter where Atlantis is, the Indo-European cultures do have a

common language origin as well as many similar socio-cultural

traditions, as an example which Das has mentioned previously

concerning the similarities between the ancient Celt and Indian

cultures."

As I wrote in my earlier email today on this forum that the Maharaja Yayati,

grandson of Maharaja Prikshit, gave his Two sons to rule the part of the

world known as Greek, Rome or Italy and eastern european region. So at that

time, there was only on ruler at Histanapur, known as New Delhi, India under

the control of various kings ruling the planet earth. Since there was one

Ruler, One Religion known as Vedic Culture, therefore, the people following

the religion (Vedic Culture) were known as Aryan or Arya.

As the time passed by people from these origin came to be known as Aryan who

invaded India. That is what it is recorded and we all believe in it. As a

matter of fact Indo-European people are the earlier stock of Aryan, also

known as civilized people following the Vedic injuctions (Culture).

That is how the Vedic knowledge including Jyotish were / are present in that

part of world which we are discussisng. More later.

Hari BOL.

With my best wishes..............AMAR PURI.
