Forgotten Culture History of India

At times,when I study the History of India, as narrated by western authors and our home grown secularists I get the impression that Indian history is meticulously crafted, unadulterated fiction, with no regard to facts found in Indian texts. They are prepared to accept the History of India by James Mill as the gospel, which states that Indians were rooted in superstition and that India had no civilisation worth mentioning. The same book claims that the earth is six thousand years old! The gentleman wrote Indian history without ever stepping in the soil of India nor did he refer any texts,either Indian or Foreign classical authors. What a scholarship! And if one were to believe such authors, text books in Indian schools, one would believe that real Indian history began with the Invasion of India by Alexander. I have,with proof, written that it is non sense and traced Indian history from Mahabharatha period to Nanda Dynasty. Such misinformation has caused enormous harm to Indian history and culture. History of India is denied and dates of great kings and dynasties are assigned later dates, if not denying them outright. This is not limited to kings. Great personalities too suffered this fate. Buddha, Kalidasa, Rajput Kings, Tamil kings, to mention a few. So are the ancient literature in Sanskrit and Tamil. In this article, let us examine the Emperor Vikramaditya,after whom one of the three calendars of India are named. Many mistake the son of Samudra Gupta of Maurys Dynasty,Chandra Gupta. He assumed the name of Vikramaditya, who lived around 105 BC and established his Empire in India, Far East and Middle East. He conquered Arabia and established Shiva Linga in Mecca .Evidence of Vikramaditya’s date. ‘A Shaka ruler invaded north-western India and oppressed the Hindus. According to one source, he was a Shudra from the Almanṣūra city; according to another, he was a non-Hindu who came from the west. In 78 CE, the Hindu king Vikramaditya defeated him and killed him in the Karur region, located between Multan and the castle of Loni. The astronomers and other people started using this date as the beginning of a new era.’ -Al Birauni. Since there was a difference of over 130 years between the Vikramaditya era and the Shaka era, Al-Biruni concluded that their founders were two kings with the same name. The Vikramaditya era named after the first, and the Shaka era was associated with the defeat of the Shaka ruler by the second Vikramaditya‘ https://ramanisblog-in.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/ramanisblog.in/2018/11/14/vikramaditya-date-105-bc-evidence/amp/?amp_gsa=1&_js_v=a8&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=16437837766190&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Framanisblog.in%2F2018%2F11%2F14%2Fvikramaditya-date-105-bc-evidence%2F

The British came up with the concept of the Aryan Invasion of India which spread culture and civilized thought to India and that until then Indians were uncivilized barbarians. Hence, again, the civilization described in these texts, which seemed to be more advanced in science, technology, culture, philosophy and linguistics could not have existed prior to the Aryan Invasion and hence the texts are mythical. The Aryan Invasion has now been dismissed by the Western historians as a figment of concoction by the British to justify their occupation of India as a rightful occupier of this Indian territory and beneficiary of its natural resources by painting the Indians themselves as belonging to the Aryan race in reality who had invaded and settled in India and set aside the original inhabitant Dravidian race as lower castes. This Aryan – Dravidian classification has now been proven to be racially incorrect as the entire Indian population has been found to belong to the same race despite their differences in features and complexion. Also the study of traditional Indian text has thrown to light how the terminologies Aryan and Dravidian were based on geographical division and not racial, cultural or civilizational. Thus this premise of Mr.Mill & Mr. Grant also seems to be flawed. https://ramanisblog-in.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/ramanisblog.in/2015/01/11/how-indian-history-was-distorted-the-first-history-of-india/amp/?amp_gsa=1&_js_v=a8&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=16431755010015&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Framanisblog.in%2F2015%2F01%2F11%2Fhow-indian-history-was-distorted-the-first-history-of-india%2F

British rule of India has made Indians doubt their own culture, civilisation. Seemingly well qualified scientists and others dismiss India’s rich culture, History and the icons of India, Rama, Krishna,Shiva, despite being presented with astronomical archeological evidence. Such is the entrenched misinformation by the British in their about 350  years of Rule of India. If one were to look for information on India and Hinduism, references pop up written by Western Authors, most of them self-proclaimed Missionaries, starting from Robert De Nobili of Tamil Nadu, Bishop Caldwell, Max Mueller, right to our secular educated Indians. Indian sources do not get any importance at all nor were they available in one place. You find only westwern authors books as ‘Auhentic source” Just who stated this whole business of rewriting Indian Histroy? And who wrote this First Indian History ? It was by James Mill who wrote the First Book, ‘History of British India’ in  1806. ( His son John Stuart Mill was a great Western Philosopher) “James Mill began his History of British India in 1806, expecting it to take him about three years, but its completion proved to take instead twelve years, with three substantial volumes at last being published early in 1817. The work was immediately successful among British imperialists and secured for Mill for the first time a degree of prosperity. It led, with the support of David Ricardo andJoseph Hume, to Mill’s appointment in 1819 in United_Kingdom as assistant (later chief) examiner of correspondence at the imperialEast India Company at an annual salary of £800. By 1836, when he died, this income had become £2,000”   The book begins with a preface in which Mill tries to make a virtue of having never visited India and of knowing none of its native languages. To him, these are guarantees of his objectivity, and he boldly claims – A duly qualified man can obtain more knowledge of India in one year in his closet in England than he could obtain during the course of the longest life, by the use of his eyes and ears in India. However, Mill goes on in this preface to say that his work is a “critical, or judging history”, encompassing singularly harsh attacks on Hindu customs and a “backward” culture which he claims to be notable only for superstition, ignorance, and the mistreatment of women. From the historical perspective, Mill tells the story of the English and, later, British acquisition of wide territories in India, severely criticizing those involved in these conquests and in the later administration of the conquered territories, as well as illuminating the harmful effects of commercial monopolies such as that of the imperial East India Company.[3] As a philosopher, Mill applies political theory to the description of the civilizations of India. His interest is in institutions, ideas, and historical processes, while his work is relatively lacking in human interest, in that he does not seek to paint memorable portraits of Robert Clive, Warren Hastings, and the other leading players in the history of British India, nor of its famous battles.[1] Indeed, the History has been called “…a work of Benthamite ‘philosophical history’ from which the reader is supposed to draw lessons about human nature, reason and religion”.[6] Despite the fact that Mill had never been to India, his work had a profound effect on the British imperial system of governing the country, as did his later official connection with India” James Mill & Mr. Charles Grant from Helebary College, wrote History of India and classified most of the literature of India as Mythological.. And the grounds for calling Indian History as Mythology. ” The events in these texts seemed to go before the date of creation of the earth as fixed by Father. James Usher as 9 AM, 23rd Oct, 4004 BCE. Hence these texts which describe India and the existence of its civilization prior to this time could not be real https://ramanisblog-in.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s

This is not mine . A gist of what Macaulay spoke in the British Parliament about the introduction of English as a medium of instruction in India. We have people like Max Mueller who were planted by the Church to destroy the Sanatana Dharma from within. Read my posts on these subjects. Indian History, as I was taught some 45 years ago was thus. There was Vedas ,ancient texts, they were concerned with Religion, many gods were worshiped, There were Mythologies of Ramayana and Mahabharata, Rama and Krishna who were worshiped as Gods. The Vedas and Puranas were oppressive. Then Buddha came along. Aryans invaded through the Khyber Pass. Alexander Invasion of India, he defeated Indian Kings and signed a treaty with Porus, forgiving him. Appointed Seleucus. Then there was Chandra Gupta Maurya and His dynasty. It goes on up to Harshavardhana. There is a gap of about 200 to 300 years. Then Kanishka. Later Mughals and the British.What is wrong with this? 1.Vedas have been brushed as Religious texts, with no details about the high scientific and technical skills they possessed. 2.No mention of the Vedic empires. 3.There is a gap of about 300 years between Panini and Daruis. 4.No mention of the Tamil and Southern Kingdoms which existed around the early Vedic age. 5.Ramayana and Mahabharata were facts and not Fables, while Bible ,Christianity, Islam and the prophet were given the status of History. 6.No mention of Sanskrit and Tamil, the two earliest languages of civilization. 7.While there is mention of Alberoni, Fahien, Huansuang, there is no mention of courtiers sent from India abroad. 8.Again there is a gap of about 200 years from Fahien in 400 AD to 600 AD when Harshavardhana came to power. 9.From 800 AD to 1500 AD no mention of Indian History in detail regarding the South Indian Kings and their empires. 10.No mention of Indian empire having been extended to South Asia during the entire History of India excepting bland statements that Indians had commercial contacts with Rome, and Some Tamil Kings conquered some portions of Indonesia,. 11.No mention of the great Floods in Souh India which triggered off migration to Europe ans rest of the world from India. And that was how the early settlements in these areas began 12.Ashoka is reported to be first King to have established contacts with Sri Lanka by sending his daughter/son, omitting the Tamil connection which was earlier by about 1000 years. I am providing information which is slightly better than what we were taught from the link I have provided below. The gaps in the improved version is also glaring. Less said about the western scholarship(?) the better. I shall be writing on the hidden History of India with evidence for these periods. Two technics were adopted in burying our culture. One is suppression of Facts and evidence, as in archeological finds and Tamil History. Second is wilful misinterpretation of facts as Max Mueller did. Readers may contribute with evidence. https://ramanisblog-in.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/ramanisblog.in/2015/05/30/what-is-wrong-with-indian-history-this/amp/?amp_gsa=1&_js_v=a8&usqp=mq331AQKKAFQArABIIACAw%3D%3D#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=16431628798383&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Framanisblog.in%2F2015%2F05%2F30%2Fwhat-is-wrong-with-indian-history-this%2F
