Five thousand years ago, there was a group of exceptional people living on the grasslands north of the Black Sea. They were later called Indo-Europeans, or more properly, the ARYANS. From their homeland, or urheimat, the mighty ARYANS spread from Scandinavia to northern India. They carried their faith with them. The most important god to the ARYANS was the Sky Father. In Rome, he was called Jupiter. In Greece, he was called Zeus. In Germania, he was called Tyr or Thor. In India, he was called Dyaus Pitr or Indra. For hundreds of years, the men who worshipped these gods created strong empires and brought civilization to the barbarians.
Alas, it was not to last. A S*mite called Abraham founded a new religion dedicated to one god after voices in his head told him to kill his son. Almost three thousand years later, the followers of Abraham and his two successors hold sway over 5 billion people. The ancient faith of our ARYAN forefathers has been pulverized by the Abrahamics and commoditized by Hollywood. And anyone who objects is called a LARPagan.
But all hope is not lost. In India alone the faith of the ARYANS stayed strong. Diluted perhaps, but its core remained. You know it today as HINDUISM. The old ARYAN gods are still revered even as they were five thousand years ago, now known as the VEDIC gods. I encourage you to learn more about the VEDAS, the sacred texts of the ancient ARYANS. Would you like to know more?
I like the vedic gods and their stories, but Hinduism is turning into catholicism which is a shame. The old sanskrit scriptures still advocate that not all is meant to be understood, but you have to live it. I also don't agree with the ranks among the population in India, but they were born into it so who am I. I draw a lot of inspiration from the tales though. Sadhguru explains it best in my opinion: isha.sadhguru.org/global/en/wisdom/article/krishna-stories
"The reason why the most profound dimensions of life have been missed by a vast population of the world is because they do not know how to be playful.
To explore this path playfully, you need a heart full of love, a joyful mind, and a vibrant body. Only then there is Leela. To explore the most profound dimensions of life in a playful way, you must be willing to play with your awareness, with your imagination, with your memory, with your life, with your death. If you are willing to play with everything, only then there is Leela. Leela does not mean just dancing with somebody. It means you are willing to dance with life. You are willing to dance with your enemy, you are willing to dance with the one whom you love, you are willing to dance at the moment of your death. Only then there is Leela."
Fuck off mutt, north or any part of india even the group with highest steppe(35%) genes in them can't compete with accomplishment made by dravidians in recent centuries
Im reading about the Hindu religion but I don't get it. There doesn't seem to be any consistent beliefs or practices. They seem to worship whichever god they choose.

A lot of the tradition is passed through down families. There are also different sects which worship one specific god more than the rest, so there is certainly a lot to choose from.

That's why it's so beautiful. It's a fluid philosophy with many interpretations and eventually boils down to everything being Maya (an illusion). It doesn't matter where you start because many stories have the potential to have an immense impact on anyone following the spiritual path. I awakened my kundalini through playing with the patterns inside these stories.
James Long
Imagine bringing ethnicity and race questions into Hinduism lmao. The point of "religion" is to step beyond our mere material existence, and most importantly, earthly limitations. All the retards shitting on Dravidians fail to understand any of it.
Luis Nguyen
You are sour. Anyone claiming that these gods are for their own have not learned their lesson.
You sound like you know what you're talking about fren

If you have studied the vedas, you should now be ready to learn advaita vedanta. I suggest to learn from works such as the principal upanishads, upadesa sahasri, and viveka chudamani. Sadhguru has much less to offer than what has already been given, and to translate Maya simply as illusion does a disservice to your understanding. There is much more to learn, and you have more to gain than kundalini experience chasing.
Owen Cook
I am aware and have started on the upanishads

This is why there should be a separation between the spiritual and the secular. The Abrahamics does not do this and this causes globohomo, multiculturalism and all the other evils of Christcuckery.
To achieve the spiritual heights of a system is to be separated from worldly affairs. One have a family because of the goodness in having a family itself, for tribe and for ones genetic immortality. One puts homosexuals in bogs because of community and Reason . We do not have to pilpul our way toward justifying these things in a constant exegesis of a religious text. Reject Abrahamism.
One practices ahimsa for spiritual advancement. One drives his enemies before him and hear the lamentations of their women because of his Will to Power and being duty bound to tribe. There is no confusion. There is no contradiction.
There is utility in showing some of the Indo-European tribe from whence, historically, the teachings came, in order to remove barriers to his receptivity to the teachings formerly embraced by his ancestors. Many Dravidians, who have received and kept these basic teachings with the Brahmins for ages, are sensitive to the notion that they are not of the same Rishi's who first disseminated them, even so much as to claim Siddartha, a Sakya prince, as a Dravidian, when a Sakya is the Prakrit term for Scythian, a nomadic tribe of the Aryan people. It's not insignificant to seek to understand and share knowledge of from where the vedas came, but at the same time, some Western Europeans may also have a sensitivity to the notion that the white sages who came from north of the Himalayas were Slavs.

I love how the word "Dravidian" has become an insult by the neo-nazi "aryans" Only Tamil Nadu had more philosophers, poets and scientists than all the snownigger nord countries of Europe together

No thanks O/Poo. So not drink the cow piss or eat the cow poo. No hindus. We're British.
For the Hindus, people have the knowledge that they have a true nature, but people are misguided on what they take as their true nature. This is why the Hindus say that people are already enlightened, they just do not know about it... The true nature of people is not the 5 senses or their objects, it is the mind, the cosmos, or later their deification of this, ie their Brahma or their Buddha, and when people realize this they are enlightened. The way to realize this is by relying on material objects which purify their minds, like sounds, logic, mantras, little beads, amulets.
Then people ask the usual question ''why the cosmos produce things which do not know that they are the cosmos?'' ie ''why are people not born directly enlightened? instead of being born unenlightened which produces lots of suffering?'' like in any theist cult. So far the Hindus have no answer to this ''question of evil''. The Hindus keep replying ''people do not know their true nature'' and that's their answer...
Mahayana is hinduism where they replaced brahma with their new idea of buddhanature. Things have a true nature this nature is just the primordial mind or the mind of a buddha.
in Buddhism, people do not have a true nature, people are not the cosmos, people are not Brahma, people are not Buddha, people are not their mind, people are not born already enlightened. In Buddhism there is only craving for pretty things and pretty ideas [ie the idea of having ''a true nature''] and lack of craving for pretty things and pretty ideas. People get enlightened when they stop craving for those. The way to get enlightened is to purify the mind, however not with objects like the Hindus do, but with the mind itself, ie all the time checking [with the mind] the behavior of the mind and then viewing the mind as it really is, ie is anicca, dukkha anatta, which triggers dispassion, which triggers liberation which triggers knowledge that dukkha is ended.
>Only Tamil Nadu had more philosophers, poets and scientists than all the snownigger nord countries of Europe together lol no. Especiall if you're including germany and the UK in "nord countries of europe"
Hinduism is an ancient religion founded on baseless hierarchy and rituals - let us move forward instead of backwards to something better like buddhism.

Sakya is one of the early 16 clans/ kingdoms that ruled parts of South Asia. Saka means Scythian which came much later than Buddhism.

Its another consequence of industrial society

Dysgenics for centuries combined with people in poverty having 4+ kids might have something to do with it. It’s the same reason Muslim countries are shitholes as well despite the fact that the Middle East and Persia were once powerful civilizations
