ARYAN INVASION THEORY, THE MOST ABSURD MYTH STILL REMAINING IN THE INDIAN SOIL & TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS ! SHOULD WE CONTINUE TO TEACH THE MYTH CREATED BY THE BRITISH RULERS FOR RULING AND SUPPRESSING INDIANS FOR THEIR BENEFITS ?
Dear Teachers, Education Policy Makers and Intellectuals of India ! Should we teach the most absurd myth of Aryan invasion created by the foreign rulers, even today ?. Is it necessary for us to belittle and denigrate ourselves even after 60 years of independence ?. What we are aiming at when we say that we are the invaders ? what we gain when we teach that we are the murderers of Dravidians ? Which way we are going to be benefited when we say that we are two category people (Aryans & Dravidians)? When all these pseudo historical facts are clearly proved as nonsense and only a myth and nothing but ‘stories’ ! We in Indian Institute of Scientific Heritage are giving you the points to understand what was India and what the British ( and later Indian rulers) aimed at teaching this ‘pseudo history of Aryan invasion ’ to us and why we continue to teach even today in our schools!
The so called mythical Aryan, first spotted in ancient India through the distorted reading and misinterpretation of Vedas, explained originated from the banks of Indus and Sarawati River , started shifting its origin. See even the base of the myth is shifted continuously ! Somebody said the Aryans originated from the Plateau of Central Asia ! Later it was said it can be somewhere Germany ! Again shifted to Upper Central Asia ! Later diverted to Iran ! Some scholars started declaring that it can be Scandinavia ! Then claim has gone to Switzerland ! It was claimed later as originated from Germany , very precisely Central and Western Germany ! Thus the origin of the “Aryans” shifted continuously in the “Aryan Invasion story”,. Even though world over discarded this myth, Indian intellectuals are still discussing the same ! ( Let us pray after this continuous shift of the origin of Aryans, if it finally reaches to India as the base of Aryans, then the problem is solved, except the wasted time and energy)
McCauley’s speech in British Parliament in 1835 “… I have traveled across the length and breadth of India and there I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief. Such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values , people of such caliber, that I do not think we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and therefore, I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self esteem, their native culture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation”(Means that they have to break every thing what was Indian for establishing the British rule)
The work of converting original India to British India ! In 1856, Robert Cardwell, the Bishop of Tirunelveli , for the first time gave the linguistic meaning for the term “ Dravida” in his book, comparative grammar of the Dravidian or south Indian family of languages. Till then there was nothing like Dravidian language in India. The dividing was done efficiently. Even in 21st century there are so many “Dravidian” language institutes and Universities in India based on the word “Dravida” which is nothing but the creation of Britishers for dividing us! Bishop said “the (Dravidian) language is naturally distinct from the “ that of the conquering race of the Aryans”.
The result ……! This could create the Dravidian movement in Tamil Nadu by E. V. Ramaswamy Naikar, known as Periyor. This could create lot of conflict in Indian society. Anti Hindi, Anti Sanskrit, Anti Ramayana, Anti Brahmin, …….agitations! The words tribes and advasis were thus originated for creating a permanent damage in Hinduism. Thus the division created by the English people got deepened after their leaving India, nurtured by our own politicians. In 1962, C. N. Annadurai even demanded for a separate “Dravida nadu”. The “great work of British” started fetching the result and fruits expected by them .

About the British rule, a leading Christian Missionary John Wilson said in 1858 “What has taken place since the commencement of the British rule in India is only a reunion, to a certain extent, of the members of the same great family” ( the family of Aryans invaded from Europe to India).
For declaring that the Europeans and Indians have got the ancestral relation as the decedents of the same race and repeatedly declaring that the Britishers have got all the great ancient relation to rule this country and also to convert this country into Christianity, all efforts were put for the strong British foundation in India. In 1929 Stanley Baldwin, gave a lecture in the House of Commons, in England : Ages and ages ago there sat, side by side, the ancestors of the English, Rajputs and Brahmins. Now, after ages…., the two branches of the great Aryan ancestry have again been brought together by providence… By establishing British rule in India, God said to the British, “I have again brought you and the Indians together after a long separation, not in order that you should lord over them, or that you should exploit them, but in order that you should recognize your kinship with them… it is your duty to raise them to their own level as quickly as possible and work together , brothers as you for the evolution of humanity (which means work for converting them to Christianity).

These ‘scholars’ said “..a great army of Aryans invaded from Central Asia…” .First, in 1843, they used the words ‘People of Aryan race’ then it was changed into “Indo Europeans” and then the words changed to “Indo Germans” .. the words went on changing depending upon the need of the European ‘historians’
The shrewd Britishers utilized this ‘pseudo history’ to strengthen their rule in India. This theory was used to crush down the Indian’s pride on his culture and glory “ since India was no longer the source of Indian civilization” why should they be proude of their culture, that culture was brought by the Aryans who were the Invaders (like the English people) ! This imaginary story was repeated by everyone particularly the white skinned scholars whom the Indian respect, to make it the history !.

Max Muller wrote to this wife about the ‘mis translation’ of Rigveda “ this edition of mine and the translation of the Veda, will hereafter tell to a great extent on the fate of India and on the growth of millions of the souls in that country. It is the root of their religion (Hindu Dharma) and to show them what the root is, I feel sure, is the only way of uprooting all that has sprung from it during the last three thousand years.” ( creating a vacuum in the mind of Hindus by misinterpreting the Vedas !)
The European historians and so called scholars gave a racial colour to Rig Veda and they declared the Aryans to be a “ race” and arbitrarily identified the Dasas and Dasyus, the words mentioned in Rig Veda as the “ Dravidians” a name which has never never appeared in any of the ancient Indian texts.

The glory of India attracted every one who was searching wealth from all over the world. For looting and exploiting Indian resources, for converting Indians to Christianity and for ruling India for ever, whatever has to be done that was done by the British rulers ! One among these, is the Aryan Invasion Theory! Let us analyze it !
Max Muller, the first among the great proponents of the Aryan Invasion theory said “ the whole human race required a gradual education before, in the fullness of time, it could be admitted to the truths of Christianity”… ( the humanity should be converted to Christianity !)

The speech delivered by Richard Temple in 1883, for the members of Christian missionary society. “ India is a country which of all others we are bound to enlighten ( means to convert to Christianity) with eternal truth… but what is most important to you friends of missions, is this- that there is a large population of aborigines, a people who are outside caste…if they are attached, as they rapidly may be, to Christianity they will form a nucleus round which British power and influence may gather. Remember , too, that Hinduism, although it is dying , yet has force…and such tribes, if not converted to Christianity, may be perverted to Hinduism… You may be confident that the missions in India are doing a work which strengthens the imperial foundation of British power……”
STILL MOTHER INDIA SURVIVED ALL THE HUDDLES AND NEGATIVES, TILL TODAY, TILL WE ALL COULD KNOW THE TRUTH. NOW ITS IN OUR HANDS TO TRANSFORM THE HISTORY WHICH STUDIED TO MYSTERY CREATED....
NOW LET US ANALYSE WHAT IS THE TRUTH AND TRUE HISTORY ?
There is no word like Dravida in any of the Vedas or Vedic literature. The British Scholar F. E. Pargiter has thus said. “ If the Aryans had entered Indian from the north west and had advanced eastward through the Punjab only as far as the Sarasvati or Yamuna when the Rigvedic hymns were composed, it is very surprising that the hymn arranges the rivers, not according to their progress, but reversely from the Ganges which they had hardly reached “Imam me gange yamune saraswati sutudri stoman sacata…” (Rigveda X. 75.05).
Strangely, one of the loudest European voices against the whole Aryan myth (at a later stages) was from none other than Max Muller, one of the chiefcreators of the myth! In 1888, forty years after he had promoted the concept of an Aryan race, he flatly denied having even spoken of an Aryan race: “I have declared again and again that if I say Aryans, I mean neither blood nor bones nor hair nor skull; I mean simple those who speak an Aryan language” Two years later, he even disown the short chronology he himself had arbitrarily fixed for Indian scriptures. In a famous declaration of 1890, he said “ whether the Vedic hymns were composed 1000 or 1500 or 2000 or 3000BC, no power on earth will ever determine…”.
Finally in his autobiography published after his death in 1900 the astonishing statement “As to the actual date of the Veda… If we were to place it at 5000 BC, I doubt whether anybody could refute such a date, while if we go back beyond the Veda, and come to measure the time required for the formation of Sanskrit… I doubt whether even 5000 years would suffice for that.” It is pity that the so called Indian scholars were/are no longer listening to him and preferred to go along with the rash theories of his younger days.
The word Dravida had purely a geographical (not racial) orientation . It, in a different way, first appears in inscriptions about 2nd Century BC as dramira, later changed to dramila or dramida which was simply synonymous with Tamila. Formerly the Pancha dravida desa includes Maharashtra and Gujarat also.
The myth is still taught in India as history. The reason for sustaining this theory in India is that Indians adopted the old colonial framework without any change. Our own new masters followed the same system of divide and rule on the linguistic, regional, religious and caste lines. For this purpose the Aryan invasion theory is being fully utilized, even today with the support of the intellectuals and politically motivated historians.
WHY?? U CAN MAKE THE CHANGE.. CAN U ? U CAN.. WE CAN..

Swamy Dayananda Saraswati’s words are very clear “ In none of the Sanskrit or history textbooks has it been stated that the Aryans came from Iran, vanquished the aborigines… and became rulers.” The word Arya is the moral and inner qualities, Aryavartha the home of scholars in the original sense of Vedic Indian.
Swamy Vivekananda remarked scornfully in a lecture in USA. “ And what your European Pundit say about the Aryans swooping down from some foreign land snatching away the land of aborigines and settling in India by exterminating them , is all pure nonsense, foolish talk. Strange that our Indian scholars too say ‘Amen’ to them. And all these monstrous are being taught to our boys”
“According to some of the European scholars the ‘Aryans came from Central Tibet, some say from Central Asia, some say Aryans lived in Swiss lakes and I should not be sorry if they had been all drowned these theory and all….As the truth of these theories, there is not one word in our scriptures not one, to prove that the Aryan even came from anywhere outside India, and in ancient India was included Afghanistan. There it ends…the whole of India is Aryan, nothing else.”
