Aren’t the Aryans Hitlers master race? No, the Aryans were not a master race that were blue eyed, blonde and
white. This was a racist interpretation that developed out of Western
occutlism
and Theosophy in the early 19th century, though Theosophy itself did
not condone this interpretation. When the West came into contact with
India, they
came into contact with Vedas that were composed by the Aryans. They
were shocked to learn that Vedic culture was similar to Western culture
and that
European languages shared common ancestry with Sanskrit. There were
clear links between the ancestors of the West and the Aryans. This lead
to many
Western philosophers and intellectuals concluding that the Vedic Aryans
were the forefathers of all there cultures and there was a sudden love
for
everything Indian.
However, Christian missionaries were not at all happy with the sudden
love and affection for Vedic culture and saw it as a threat to their
civilisation. So they fabricated theories the Aryans were actually
nomadic European warlords that originated from the Steepes in
Russia and spread by
conquest, conquering much of Europe and India. This idea was attractive
to Social Darwinists and white-supremacists and they popularized the
notion of
a master-race that owing to its genetic superiority conquered much of
the world and civilised everybody.
So who are the Aryans really? The word Aryan is a Sanskrit word meaning “Noble†and refers to a
particular noble culture which was once practiced all around the world
before
the destruction of the last civilisation during the cataclysm 5000
years ago. This lead to a massive rupture in the world and everybody
was
separated, with only remnants of their Aryan heritage. Their heritage
consisted of religion, language, myths, symbols and sciences. The
common symbol
of the Aryans is the Swastika which can be found in virtually all
cultures. It represents good fortune and prosperity, and it is still
widely used by
Indians.
Aryan culture was a beautiful, prosperous and spiritual culture. They
were nature-worshippers, but they did not necessarily worship idols,
but the
spirit of the universe that animated everything. The Aryans saw the
entire universe as conscious and saw man as existing in harmony with
the universe.
Does this sound familiar? Yes, it is the so-called
Pantheists/Pagan/idolaters detested by the Abrahmic religions.
You’ve have heard all kinds of lies spread about the Pagans. You’ve
been told they sacrificed humans and animals, they were savage
barbarians .
Were the Celts, the Greeks and the Persians barbarians? No, they were
advanced spiritual cultures that wrote great literature, created very
colourful
and vibrant art, and excelled in science and philosophy. They were
demonized by the Abrahmic religion because their Aryan-values were
anathema to the
Abrahmic values of control, power and domination. The Aryan culture was
a liberal, democratic and enlightened culture that promoted individual
freedom and divinity, taught us to respect nature and live in harmony
with it and that everything in this universe was divine and this
divinity is
within us all.
The Aryan homeland was the Indian subcontinent and their official
language was Sanskrit, which itself mean the perfect language, it was a
language
especially constructed for spiritual and intellectual discourse. After
the cataclysms 5000 years ago, the Aryans were separated into many
parts
dispersed throughout the world from India to Europe. This lead to the
birth of what is known as the Indo-European languages: Avestan,
Lithuanian,
Greek, Latin and Germanic etc
What was the Aryan religion? The word religion as it is commonly understood is understood be
something negative, stifling, irrational. In that sense the Aryans had
no religion,
but instead practiced pure spirituality. The Aryan religion was a
spiritual religion and is known as the Vedic religion, whose scriptures
were the
Vedas. The Vedas literally mean the books of knowledge. They were
composed by sages of superhuman intelligence. The entire Aryan society
was based on
the knowledge of the Vedas.
Vedic religion is also known as Hinduism, but this term is actually a
complete fabrication by Christian missionaries who ignorantly put every
single
religion and sect of India under one umbrella term - “Hindu†and tried
to make it look primitive and savage by mistranslating the Vedas and
perverting them. There really is no such thing as Hinduism. The true
religion of the Hindus is the Vedic religion, and few Hindus today can
claim they
are Vedic and know what the Vedas really teach.
What do the Vedas teach? Pure and pristine spirituality. They reveal the secrets of creation, of spirit and being, the principles of nature, the
universal laws and values. The
kind of nobility they express, the sheer divinity contained with them
is unparalleled. They are not a man-made religion. They are cosmic in
every
sense of the world. There is absolutely no compartmentalization in the
Vedas. They teach science, metaphysics, cosmology, spirituality, art,
philosophy and ethics, virtually every subject.
Even hearing the Vedas invokes cosmic feelings. This is no accident,
the Vedas consist of mostly Mantras, and Mantras are constructed by a
special
dialect of Sanskrit known as Vedic Sanskrit. The Mantras is
meticulously constructed and encoded with a meaning which can only be
revealed in higher
states of consciousness.
The Vedas being cosmic have no affiliation with any one human group.
Although it is generally thought the Vedas belong to the Indians, this
is not
true. The Vedas are truly cosmic and belong to everybody. They are our
heritage and the Indians have been caretakers of this heritage. Many
people are
reawakening to them irrespective of their caste, creed, sect, race:
The scene above was once playing out all over the world. This world was
ruled by Aryan culture and spirituality was widely being practiced. It
is
great to see people rediscovering their Aryan past, and hopefully you
too will rediscover it.
Perhaps there are a few questions about what the Aryans teach. The main
purpose of this post is to inform about the main Aryan teachings.
Do Aryans teach about god? Yes and No. Yes, because they do teach of a supreme being known as
BRAHMAN, an infinite and absolute divinity that is pure consciousness,
but this is
unlike the personal creator god of Abrahmic religion. It is more like
an absolute reality that underlies all of existence, a profound mystery
but
which is the source of all wisdom, love and knowledge. The Aryans
called this Sat-chit-ananda - existence, truth/pure consciousness and
pure bliss.
This is the only true reality, everything else is a virtual reality.
What rituals do the Aryans practice? The Aryans practiced many rituals to celebrate the divine, but the most
prevalent of these rituals was nature-worship. As the divine and
supreme being
is beyond ones imagination, the Aryans made use of symbols to represent
the divine. These symbols were known as Devas, literally meaning the
shining
ones. From Devas come our words for diva, day, divine. The Devas
represented the highest and various manifestations of how the divine
appears to us,
each divinity had their own qualities and were either masculine, neuter
or feminine. These became known as the nature gods or nature
spirits.
The
Aryans had a very deep reverence for these divine ones and much of the
Vedas is dedicated in praise of them expressed in the form of poetry
beautiful
beyond words.
