Raj Vedam ji's facsinating insights into how India influenced the ancient world | Egypt, Bos Indicus 

So-called 'Damascus steel' also came from India.

Egyptology Hive, People in ancient times knew this Indian connection. There would have been historical records about it. But in Alexandrea they destroyed the whole library.

"It is testified by Herdotus, Plato, Salon, Pythagoras, and Philostratus that the religion of Egypt proceeded from India. -- It is testified by Neibuhr, Valentia, Champollian and Weddington that the temples of upper Egypt are of greater antiquity than those of lower Egypt...that consequently the religion of Egypt, according to the testimony of those monuments....came from India. -- The chronicles found in the temples of Abydos and Sais and which have been transmitted by Josephus, Julius Africanus, and Eusebius, all testify that the religious system of the Egyptians proceeded from India." Greek author and philosopher Philostratus. -- Philostratus says that the gymnosophists ( Hindu sect ) of Ethiopia, who settled near the sources of the Nile, descended from the Brahmins of India. Eustathius states that the Ethiopians came from India, Appolonius states that the Ethiopians were sent from India and in the journal of Alexander the great it says "India as a whole beginning from the north and embracing what of it is subject to Persia, is a continuation of Egypt and the Ethiopians ". Godfrey Higgins - Anacalypsis. -- “By the pictorial hieroglyphic inscription found on the walls of the temple of the Queen Haslitop (Hatshepsut) at Der-el-babri, we see that this Punt can be no other than India. For many ages the Egyptians traded with their old homes, and the reference here made by them to the names of the Princes of Punt and its fauna and flora, especially the nomenclature of various precious woods to be found but in India, leave us scarcely room for the smallest doubt that the old civilisation of Egypt is the direct outcome of that of the older India.” - Col. Henry Steel Olcott. ~ " The land of punt in the Egyptian ethnological traditions has been identified by the scholars as the Malabar coast of Deccan ( India ). From this land ebony and other rich woods, incense, balsam, precious metals, ect, used to be imported into Egypt ". German Egyptologist - Friedrich Wilhelm. ~ "At the mouth of the Indus river dwell a sea faring people, active, ingenious and enterprising as when, ages subsequent to this great movement, these people coast along the shores of Mekran, traverse the mouth of the Persian gulf and again adhering to the sea board of Oman, Hadramant and Yemen, they sail up the Red sea, and again ascending that mighty stream which fertilises a land of wonders found the Kingdom of Egypt, Nubia and Abyssinia. These are the same stock that centuries subsequently to this colonisation, spread the blessings of civilisation over Hellas ( Greece ) and her islands". Edward G Pococke - India In Greece. -- The discoveries herein recorded should therefore appeal to the hearts and stir the religious and patriotic feelings of all educated Hindus who desire to know the first-found scientific proofs for the veracity of their Vedas and Ancient Epics (the Puranas), and to learn that their ancestral Vedic kings and sages were famous historical emperors, kings and priest-kings in Mesopotamia with multitudinous monuments still existing there to the present day. It must also be gratifying to the modern Hindus to find that the Vedic and Epic tradition which their ancestors preserved and handed down through the centuries, and in which they have steadfastly believed, is now proven substantially true, and has become a chief means of identifying as Aryans, the Sumerians, Phoenicians and Britons.

@@parmykumar8592 Thank you sir for the wonderful quotations. They are a revelation to me!! I would love to learn more on the subject. If you would be kind enough to provide me with the reading sources, I would be eternally grateful.

Indians themselves are discovering these now along with you. The post independent Indian leaders were apologetic and very few took pride of our civilization.

You said it. I get so mad when our own against the truth ..

True! There are McCuauley's children and also what Rajiv Malhotra calls modern day SEPOYS

India is the bridge that connects the West to the East. India is connected to the West (in places like America, Europe and Australia) through the Indo-European language family, while India is connected to the East (in places like China, Korea and Japan) through the Indian religion of Buddhism.

Awareness is important first. Our culture was pretty evolved, so recognise it.

@@parmykumar8592 i will read these books

@Mru M, we are in the initial stage of reclaiming history through our own research and analysis. At this stage, differences are bound to exist between scholars, may be till the results of research begin to converge on single time period. But we all know that there is no question about greatness of knowledge and contributions of Shri Nilesh.

Normally we cite the earliest discoverers, and in this context, I quoted Talageri and Elst for OIT. For proper citation, I should have additionally quoted Bryant, Kak and Kazanas. Indian astronomy has been interpreted since 1700s by many researchers - European and Indian. In your opinion, where in my talk should I have quoted my good friend, NN Oak, and in what context? I have been working on Indian history since 1990, presenting Indian astronomy publicly in my talks from 2014, and have never faced such an absurd demand. Don't create a controversy and a wedge between researchers, where none exists.

Folks Please do not create controversies where there exists none. I only came to know of these comments because someone brought them to my attention. I will make few points. 1. Whether lecture or a paper or a book, the presenter or author has a certain goal and s/he may make use of references what s/he is aware of, feels critical to driving that point home. 2. Many presentations begin with formalities, continue through formalities, and end in formalities without covering anything of importance. If one must accomplish something beyond this, then one must aim for optimum strategy/solution and all optimum solutions are sub-optimal. Someone will always be unhappy about something. Very few are successful or capable of doing it. Most folks play to the gallery. 3. The number of pro-Indic researchers or presenters is few. Our ecosystem is building but is weak. Most of us (I or Raj included) do not receive any support (we do this on our own dime). Resources are limited and time is limited and much work to do. 4. Please focus your energies on creating and Swadharma in your own way. 5. Do your best to create a minimal amount of confusion/delusion among the masses. 6. If you disagree with something, state clearly what you disagree with, why, and provide your alternate solution - both cases backed by empirical objectively testable, and/or logical evidence. Thank you Shivoham! Shivoham! Warm regards, Nilesh Oak

To teach real history.

We Americans encourage immigration, in fact we take pride in our immigrant heritage. If a high quality person like Mr. Raj wants to invest in our country we will happily take him!
