Leaving aside the issue whether leaving abroad for good,it is an accepted fact that children leave for pursuing Higher studies.
And I have noticed that such students once they leave for Higher Education, it is certain that they would find employment there and eventually settle down there.
Considering the present trend,it is time that parents be prepared to accept this as a Reality.
Children, once they complete their standard Ten in schools, in some cases even from their fifth or sixth standard,prepare themselves for the task of pursuing Higher education abroad.
At the other end, there are also courses that prepare one for prestigious professions, no doubt paying well, in India as well.
Preparing for these examinations in India for Professional Courses for Medicine, Engineering itself is an arduous task.
With the number of aspirants to enter the courses are increasing the Educational System has set forth Entrance Tests .
Like CAT,UPSC for Civil Services.
For Foreign studies, there are also preparatory, qualifying examinations like GRE,GMAT.
These examinations evaluate one’s knowledge level.
How does one attend an examination which is meant to extract what one has learnt for over 12 Years?
The trick lies is knowing what is expected of them , how to answer the questions in the examinations in a limited time.
The students are better served by preparing themselves from early in their schools for these types of examinations.
It is one thing to score in class or Board examinations, but a different proposition when it comes to attending these highly competitive examinations.
This calls for proper guidance from experienced faculty who are not only proficient in their subjects but are good at understanding the nuances of competitive examination preparations.
And the method of specific teaching and preparing one for facing these examinations.
As the readers of this Blog may be aware, I frequently post,though not regularly( I wish I do it),articles on Education with focus on students.
On this issue of preparing students for competitive Examinations, and on good coaching for students of classes 7 to 12, I have noticed Byju’s Classes .
Byju’s Classes .
The organisation seems to be doing a fair job of fulfilling the task of guiding, counseling and preparing the students in all the areas.
The faculty , I am informed by the students, is professional and the coaching is good.
The success rate in the competitive examinations of such students coming from Byju’s Classes is quite High.
The Byju’s Classes prepare students from Standards 7 to 12.
For MBBS and Engineering there are special courses.
Appreciated by Deloitte, NDTV,CNBC and TIMESNOW, the organisation has an online Portal, where the learning is simple, with specific guidance systems.

Interesting that The Jews were the descendants of the Yadavas, Lord Krishna’s Clan.
Twenty two tribes left India after the Mahabharata War.
Lord Krishna as an Infant.
‘because life there became impossible as a result of nuclear explosions
and anarchy.’
Vedic Star drawn as alpana in front of Indian houses-Kolam
Plant formation of Star of David in a Israili city (Compare & notice the similarity with alpana done in front of the Indian houses)
Of the 22 tribes that left the region in quick succession, the tem that preceded North met with disaster and perished.
Out of the remaining 12 a few families dropped off and settled down in regions currently known as Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Egypt Greece and Russia.
That great exodus took place 5,743 years ago. The Passover year which the Jews commemorate provides a tally of the period elapsed from the time they left India. … One of their monarchs was Solomon.
Pococke observes: ” That India was the point whence came the gold and the luxurious appliances of Solomon’s court is clear; both the length of the voyage, the nature of the commercial imports and the original land of the
Phoenician’s establish this fact. It ws a coasting voyage of three years.” India in Greece, by E. Pococke )
Pococke adds: ” When Judah did evil in the sight of the Lord, and built them high places, and images, and goves, on every high hill, and under every tree, the object was Bal; and the pillar was his symbol. It was on this altar that they burned incense, and sacrificed the calf on the 15th day of the month, the sacred amavas of the Hindus. The calf of Israel is the bull of Balesar or Ishwar.” The Bal alias Balesar is Balkrishna alias Baleshwar, i.e., the Divine Child Krishna.
The name Solomon is a Sanskrit term. The great poet Kalidas describes King Dushyant as ‘ Shalmanav,’ i.e., a tall, hefty person with an impressive personality. The term Solomon is that Sanskrit word with the vowel ” a
rounded in pronunciation as ” O “.The Golden Calf
The image of the golden calf which one often hears of in the history of the Jews was the calf which Lord Krishna leaned against when he used to play the flute while grazing cows. …
At that age, Lord Krishna was tall enough to lean only against a calf and not a cow.’..
Star of David.
‘The so-called Jewish Star which is the emblem of the Jews is a Tantric, Vedic symbol. It consists of two, interlocked triangles with the apex of one facing North and the other South. This symbol is drawn in front of every
orthodox Hindu home in stone-powder design every morning after the house is washed. The desing/drawing is known as Rangawali alias Rongoli. Even its name David is the Sanskrit word Devi, i.e., ” bestowed by the Mother
Goddess.” The so-called Humayun tomb building in Delhi, which was a Goddess temple, is inlaid with those emblems on the exterior, upper portions of its walls.
The Five Races (Phylum) of Noah (Nu). Of the five races, Yadu, Turvasa, Druhyus, Anu, and Puru, the only one I’ll deal with are the Yadu and their companions, the Yadavas. Yadava is a contraction of Yadu plus Deva, meaning ‘The Yadu Demi–Gods or People of Yah.’ It was through them that Lord Krishna, God Shiva, and Buddha came to earth to save mankind from time to time, as follows:
Yayati/Jyapeti/Japhet was at one and the same time Dyauspitar (Jupiter), Dyus (Zeus), Vishnu or Lord Krishna, Shiva, and Buddha.
Notice that the Nephilim/Navalin did not detach themselves from their bodies and move into those of the Yadus and Yadavas. They could enter this world only via the bloodstreams of the Yadu and Yadava (Yahudas or Jews). For that, they had to breed with the daughters of men, leaving their seed in the wombs of these daughters. The closer people were tied genetically to the Yadu and Yadava, the easier it was to get a correct genetic match for producing a fetus capable of hosting a true Son of the Unbegotten. Any of the other races could produce saints but not saviors like Jesus and Krishna. For this reason, Lord Krishna and Jesus were related by blood ties. Krishna was a Yadu Kuru. Jesus was a Yehudi Koresh”
‘The Biblical name ‘Kinneret’, which is the more ancient name and precedes the name ‘Gannesaret’. It comes from the Hebrew word ‘kinnor’ meaning ‘harp’ – which is regarded as the ‘instrument of music in heaven’. The lake is supposed to be shaped like a ‘harp’. In Sanskrit too ‘kinnar’ (किन्नर) means ‘heavenly music’. Also, the ‘kinnars’ are a ‘heavenly race’ of men mentioned throughout the Ramayana. The female counterpart of the ‘kinnars’ were the ‘apsaras’. In the Ramayana the ‘kinnars’ are always mentioned along with the ‘apsaras’. So if there was a ‘Kinneret’, was there a lake dedicated to the ‘apsaras’ too? The Bible does mention a lake by the name ‘Asphar’ in Israel, also the Dead Sea was known as ‘Ashphalites’, though now the name is connected to ‘asphalt’ – though there is no known etymological source of ‘asphalt’ and is credited to non-Greek, non-Latin unknown source.
Then there is the Susita River, also now called the Hippos. ‘Susit’ (सुसिता) means ‘white’ in Sanskrit. There is also a town by the name ‘Susit’ in Israel. The list is endless.’
‘
Just to give you an idea of how low mankind had fallen after the Great Flood in Altai, Siberia, read the Hindu account of Noah, taken from the Matsya Purana:
‘To Satyavarman, that sovereign of the whole earth, were born three sons: the eldest Shem; then Sham; and thirdly, Jyapeti by name.‘They were all men of good morals, excellent in virtue and virtuous deeds, skilled in the use of weapons to strike with, or to be thrown; brave men, eager for victory in battle.
‘But Satyavarman, being continually delighted with devout meditation, and seeing his sons fit for dominion, laid upon them the burdens of government.
‘Whilst he remained honouring and satisfying the gods, and priests, and kine, one day, by the act of destiny, having drunk mead,
‘Became senseless and lay asleep naked. Then, he was seen by Sham, and by him were his two brothers called:
‘To whom he said, ‘What now has befallen? In what state is this our sire?’ By these two he was hidden with clothes, and called to his senses again and again.
‘Having recovered his intellect, and perfectly knowing what had passed, he cursed Sham, saying, ‘Thou shalt be the servant of servants.’
‘And since thou wast a laugher in their presence, from laughter thou shalt acquire a name. Then he gave Sham the wide domain on the south of the snowy mountains.
‘And to Jyapeti he gave all the north of the snowy mountains; but he, by the power of religious contemplation, attained supreme bliss.’
‘Jehovah is an anglicized representation of Hebrew the name that, according to the Bible, God revealed to his people,also dubbed “the proper name of God”. The earliest available Latin text to use a vocalization similar to Jehovah dates from the 13th century. It was certainly not the historical vocalization of the Tetragrammaton at the time of the redaction of the Pentateuch (6th century BCE), at which time the most likely vocalization was YAHWEH. The historical vocalization was lost because in Second temple Judaism, during the 3rd to 2nd centuries BCE, the pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton came to be avoided, being substituted with Adonai “my Lords”. Others say that it is the pronunciation Yahweh that is testified in both Christian and pagan texts of the early Christian era.Some argue that Jehovah is preferable to Yahweh, based on their conclusion that the Tetragrammaton was likely tri-syllabic originally, and that modern forms should therefore also have three syllables.’
Lakshmi, the consort of Lord Mahalakshmi is described thus in the Sri Suktha.

‘Hiranya Varnaam Harineem’
Of deep red/golden in color, the wife of Hari(Vishnu).
Hiranya is deep red in color, bordering on Purple.
Phoenicians is the name given by the Greeks to the Canaan, the Pre Jewish People in and around modern-day Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Israel.
The Cannanites were the people of Kanha, or Krishna, the Vedic God,who after the devastation of the Mahabharata war moved westwards from India.-India in Greece by Edward Pococke.
Bit Lahmi of the Amarna Letters is traced to Lachmo, the Akkadian god of fertility. The Akkadian civilization flourished around 3000 BC. Lachomo, the Akkadian God was worshiped by the Canaanites as Lachma. They also worshipped Goddess Lachama as his wife. -Richard R Losch.
The posture of a Cannnite (pre Jewish Israel) God seated on the left shows a close link to Indian sculpture.
1000 years before the Hebrews arrived in Israel, the Cannanites erected a temple to worship the god on the hill now known as the Hill of the Nativity in the town of Beit Lachama. Beit Lachama was fertile and had a good water supply. When the Jews came in they would naturally not worship the Canan god Lachma and the distortion of interpretations began.
The Cannanite Goddess Astrate depicted here with snakes and skulls much like the Vedic Goddess Kali.
Beit Lachama meant ‘Temple of the God Lakhmu’, which later distorted to ‘House of Bread’ in Hebrew & Aramaic and to ‘House of Meat’ in Arabic. The etymology of Lakhmu and why the God had that name is unknown.-William F. Albright, American archaeologist .
1. the Goddess Laksmi (लक्ष्मी) – the goddess of wealth and prosperity.
2. The brother of Sri Rama whose name was Lakshmana (लक्ष्मण). ‘Lakshmi’ (लक्ष्मी) in Sanskrit means ‘wealth’, ‘fortune’ or a ‘mark’. ‘Lakshman’ (लक्ष्मण) means ‘lucky’ or ‘fortunate’.
I have been studying archology related information, Astronomy to seek information about the spread of Sanatana Dharma throughout the world.
And I also check the Linguistic affiliations along with Cultural similarities.
Insignia of the Moon God ‘Sin’ of Haran. Notice the crossed-legged posture akin to yogic semi-Padmasana of Shiva, the crescent moon and the winged-bulls which were the vehicles of the moon-god ‘Sin’.Mesopotamian Civilisation Map.
The Sanatana Dharma civilisation, as distinct from the Sarasvati Valley civilisation has been dated as the oldest in the world.
This coupled with the existence of Super Continents and reference to this by Tamil ,another ancient Language of India, the date of which is as old as Sanatana Dharama, had spurred me to dig deep into the subject.
Based on this, it transpires that a Group from South India, the Dravida desa, left the South because of a Tsunami (referred to by the Puranas and Tamil literature repeatedly) , led by Shiva and His son Ganesha moved through the Middle East , Europe,Africa, to Arctic before traveling back to Saraswati Valley through Russia, and Iran, while another led by Satyavrata Manu, the ancestor of Lord Rama moved to Ayodhya to found the Ikshvaky Dynasty(Ikshvaku was the son of Satyavrata Manu).
I have been following this trail in conjunction with the immigration and settlements in Europe and elsewhere.
I have been able to find references, evidence, cultural links and archeological finds.
I have posted articles on all these, under Hinduism.
Now to Mesopotamian Connection.
Located near the Turkish- Syrian border in the middle of an arid plain, Haran is one of the oldest Mesopotamian settlements.
The settlement of Haran is mentioned in a treaty which was enacted in the Temple of Sin (Sin was the Mesopotamian Moon God) at Haran in thereign of Hammurabi (1728-1686 BC). Several Assyrian kings describe rebuilding this temple. The last king of Babylon, Nabonidus (556-539 BC) also rebuilt the Temple of Sin. Excavations have revealed a large mud-brick building which dates to the end of the 3rd millennium BC. It is thought this might be the predecessor to the temple of the Sumerian and Mesopotamian Moon-God Sin.
The insignia of the Moon God Sin bears a remarkable likeness to that of the Vedic God Shiva. In fact, Shiva is also known as Som-nath (सोमनाथ) which means ‘Lord of the Moon’. Shiva’s insignia includes the crescent moon and the bull called ‘Vrishabha’ or ‘Nandi’ who was the vehicle of Lord Shiva.
The earliest known form of the name ‘Sin’ is ‘Suen’ which may well be a distortion of the Sanskrit ‘Shivam’ – the name of the Vedic Moon God. What is even more interesting is that ‘Haran’ (हरन), is another name for Lord Shiva.
..Sin/ˈsiːn/ (Akkadian: Su’en, Sîn) or Nanna (Sumerian: DŠEŠ.KI, DNANNA) was the god of the moon in the Mesopotamian mythologyof Akkad, Assyria and Babylonia. Nanna is a Sumerian deity, the son of Enlil and Ninlil, and became identified with Semitic Sin. The two chief seats of Nanna’s/Sin’s worship were Ur in the south of Mesopotamia and Harran in the north.’..
Mesopotamian Deities.
“The Mesopotamian literary corpus is one of the oldest literatures in the world. It is infused with the divine, because religion played a crucial part in the way Mesopotamians expressed their thoughts about human life. Mesopotamian religion was polytheistic, with a pantheon consisting of hundreds if not thousands of gods of varying importance. This website offers information about the fifty most important gods and goddesses and provides starting points for further research.’..

The IVC has been tentatively identified with the toponym Meluhha known from Sumerian records; the Sumerians called them Meluhhaites. It has been compared in particular with the civilizations of Elam (also in the context of the Elamo-Dravidian hypothesis) and with Minoan Crete (because of isolated cultural parallels such as the ubiquitous goddess worship and depictions of bull-leaping).[108] The mature (Harappan) phase of the IVC is contemporary to the Early to Middle Bronze Age in the Ancient Near East, in particular theOld Elamite period, Early Dynastic to Ur III Mesopotamia, Prepalatial Minoan Crete and Old Kingdom to First Intermediate Period Egypt.
After the discovery of the IVC in the 1920s, it was immediately associated with the indigenous Dasyu inimical to the Rigvedic tribes in numerous hymns of the Rigveda. Mortimer Wheeler interpreted the presence of many unburied corpses found in the top levels of Mohenjo-Daro as the victims of a warlike conquest, and famously stated that “Indra stands accused” of the destruction of the IVC. The association of the IVC with the city-dwelling Dasyus remains alluring because the assumed timeframe of the first Indo-Aryan migrationinto India corresponds neatly with the period of decline of the IVC seen in the archaeological record. The discovery of the advanced, urban IVC however changed the 19th-century view of early Indo-Aryan migration as an “invasion” of an advanced culture at the expense of a “primitive” aboriginal population to a gradual acculturation of nomadic “barbarians” on an advanced urban civilization, comparable to the Germanic migrations after the Fall of Rome, or the Kassite invasion of Babylonia. This move away from simplistic “invasionist” scenarios parallels similar developments in thinking about language transfer and population movement in general, such as in the case of the migration of the proto-Greek speakers into Greece, or the Indo-Europeanization of Western Europe.
It was often suggested that the bearers of the IVC corresponded to proto-Dravidians linguistically, the breakup of proto-Dravidian corresponding to the breakup of the Late Harappan culture. Today, the Dravidian language family is concentrated mostly in southern India and northern and eastern Sri Lanka, but pockets of it still remain throughout the rest of India and Pakistan (the Brahui language), which lends credence to the theory. Finnish Indologist Asko Parpola concludes that the uniformity of the Indus inscriptions precludes any possibility of widely different languages being used, and that an early form of Dravidian language must have been the language of the Indus people. However, in an interview with the Deccan Herald on 12 August 2012, Asko Parpola clarified his position by admitting that “Sanskrit has also preserved a very important part of the Indus heritage” and that even Sangam Tamil had possible influences of the Brahmins .
Proto-Munda (or Para-Munda) and a “lost phylum” (perhaps related or ancestral to the Nihali language) have been proposed as other candidates for the language of the IVC.Michael Witzel suggests an underlying, prefixing language that is similar to Austroasiatic, notably Khasi; he argues that the Rigveda (composed by the Indo-Aryans after the decline of the Harappans) shows signs of this hypothetical Harappan influence in the earliest historic level, and Dravidian only in later levels, suggesting that speakers of Austroasiatic were the original inhabitants of Punjab and that the Indo-Aryans encountered speakers of Dravidian only in later times.
