Indian Giants Crack the Aryan Invasion Myth: Ancient History Casteism, Racism

The Theory of the Aryan invasion of India was invented in support of the Western imperialism both political and cultural. The Western imperialists made us think that the Rig Veda is the work of barbaric invading horde and consequently three is no culture and civilization in the Rig Veda and the Christian missionaries got an excuse to show that Vedic culture came from Middle eastern culture, the cradle of the Bible and Christianity, showing that Hinduism or Vedic Religion is an offshoot of the religion and civilization of the West. The showing of the primitive nature of the Vedic allowed the sciences of India to be given a Greek basis. This approach also discredited the genealogy of the Puranas and the long list of Kings before the Buddha and Krishna, as having no historical basis. Hindu-Buddhist tradition and culture have been shown containing simply fantasies and myths. Thus it paved the way for cultural social and political domination of India with the superiority of Western culture and religion gaining an upper hand. Thus, this approach made the Hindus feel ashamed of their culture as having no scientific and historical basis. The Western Missionary scholars did in the intellectual sphere what the British army did in the political realm, discrediting, dividing and conquering the Hindus. Yet, this has been less questioned by the Hindus even after fifty years of India’s independence. Taking a stand against this biased interpretation, would cause a re-examination of many of the historical ideas about India which fail to withstand an objective scrutiny. Most of the Hindu scholars continue to accept passively the misinterpretation of their own culture and history. They take all these things lightly, perhaps failing to realize that a historically defined culture creates the perspective from which it is viewed in the modern social and intellectual context. These Hindu scholars are proud of ‘Tolerance’ which does not mean allowing a false view to reign causing much injury to India’s health. They take less interest in what India’s great seers have said, as guided they are by the Western, Christian scholars in particular. This explains why most of the English educated students, intellectuals, pressmen and media persons are Hindu-haters. One person wrote in the H.T.: "Hinduism is a menace to liberty, equality and fraternity. On that account, it is incompatible with democracy”. Let us listen to what the Indian Giants lash out.
