Try and get a brief overview of Greek philosophy and philosophers and you will find that many have expressed worldviews similar to Vedanta. But I think Greek exposure to Vedanta is very "recent" -that is in the 1000 bc to 500 bc era. That is too recent. Vedas date back several milleniums ...

See the post above . I am surprised you are not able to find sources that discuss the equation Sarasvati and Harahvaiti. I checked your source. If you had observed it little bit closer, you would have seen (*) symbol before that word. The author tells us something in starting note. In passages tran...

Personally to me this word appears identical to the Indian Sarasvati. This equation (Saravati == Harahvaiti) is accepted by many scholars including Indian. That's the problem with our discussion. It may appear similar but meaning is entirely different. You are still not producing any credible sourc...

~~ IMO-- feels to disagree and or add to my post. Thanks for replying with such long post. We frame the whole transition based on what we read from mainstream history sources. I am not saying slavery is not there in Islam or some other Western lifestyle. I noticed two types slavery here. I explaine...

Maybe you have not heard of the slave dynasty. Or maybe you did not hear about the Delhi Sultanate of which there is debate "was it a slave society or society with slaves?" (eg. http://www.academia.edu/3198988/The_Delhi_Sultanate_A_Slave_Society_or_A_Society_with_Slaves ) or you do not wa...

And then you say "don't know this subject is taboo here." It's not taboo, it's pointless and silly, at least until you fully explain where you're going with it. I want to know how much impact India had on them through out the time. What they were and such. I am trying to organise my own t...

Wrong assumption on bolded parts. Islam is all about slavery. When your premise is based on wrong assumptions, in corollary your questions and your presumptions itself are wrong. I didn't give them any certificate there. I am speaking in relative terms. Not in indian context. Seriously, Christianit...

Off-topic: Guys, can you tell me more about slavery in West during earlier period. Islam is more about conversions and Harems than into slavery(?). I don't know how much Persians and Greeks practiced slavery. Romans I don't know but European have rich history of slavery. I really want to know more a...

Here is my brand new theory, Western block gone through min. three waves till 1000BC. First one is, Vedic wave through pre-Avesta religion. It is the reason why many languages sound similar to sankrit in Europe. It was earlier promotion of spirituality. Dates are unknown. Mostly happened before 2000...

These two words are almost identical: Sarasvati and Harahvaiti. They can't represent two different things. They represent different things. Repeating same thing again and again can't make it true. If you want to respond to me by one liner again, forget about the discussion. I don't have time for st...

I am not exactly interested in dating Ramayana and Maha Bharata. I actually believe it happened as it described in our epics. Science is part of life but not exactly the ultimate goal of it. Ultimate goal is always Moksha. . Another thing is, I don't know how anyone can focus on small details when a...

..... Harahvaiti is not river. But land. Avesta name is Harahvaiti. ,.... You have to do more research but I had mentioned that the name is used for land also. Though if you study Indian communities they have names such as Saraswat Brahmin, or Goud Saraswat Brahmin. The word Saraswat in these names...

Please excuse me for stating something here. Please dismiss my words as rubbish if you like, but I believe that our education brainwashes us with information sourced from Europe along with the indoctrination that what comes from Europe (and now USA) is always 100% correct. This is the "standar...

I think that is sort of the norm for non-native pronunciations of a foreign language -- Indians should know given the number of languages we get to butcher as we travel around the country. Besides, aren't Greek translations a little later in the day than the time periods we are discussing here, in ...

syam

I am still not recovered from earlier mental gymnastics. So any lies and fake references propagated by our PIDI historians. Now I wonder how reliable are earlier Greek works. They didn't even know how to record history. Horrible pronunciation of words. Can't say a single word without messing it up. ...

This is fraud of highest level. . . .OMG.. . Look what Avesta says about this so called Harahvaiti, AVESTA: VENDIDAD (English): Fargard 1. 12. The tenth of the good lands and countries which I, Ahura Mazda, created, was the beautiful Harahvaiti29. Thereupon came Angra Mainyu, who is all death, and h...

Short version of the story behind this Harahvaiti, Saraswati and their link to Helmand. . . Our pidi historians say that, saraswati with the name harahvaiti existed in Afghan back in good ol' days. We actually migrated from that place to here. They come to this conclusion by Harahvaiti > Arachosia >...

Indian Saraswati is in the aryavrat. Their Harahvaiti is in their region. In any case seem my reply to periaswamy. You are lying about this Iranian river. Someone already debunked this fake linguistic connection. There are scholars like Kocchar, Thapar, Lommel and Hildebrandt who insist on identify...

Small story about King Baratha. . King Baratha is son of first thirthankar.

Something I found here and there. When brahmin starts vedic ritual, first he has to mention the location and time of the ritual. It's very important for any big ritual. It is called sankalpa. This sankalpa has two parts. One is location and another is time. Time tells us about which kalpa, mahayuga,...

How come we are discussing about only Hindu scriptures. What happened to Jain Agamas?

Aren't they part of history? Their thirthankaras are damn old. Surely they are not aliens.

Come on. This is not even a trick question. Aryans had a break up in India and some of them left and settled in Iran. They named the river that they settled around in Iran Sarasvati. Since they couldn't pronounce S they used H and hence Haraxavati. If Aryans had break up, that means some of the bra...

New stuff to me and I have no reason to doubt what you say. But my effort is on an era that pre-dates Greek history by 2000 to 3000 years.

At the end of the day, history of origin of culture is irrelevant to the lives of the large majority. Most white people for eg, do not give a rat's behind about whether history started in Sumer or Egypt or China.
