  • Gaya In Greece Palasha Dweepa Greeks Ancestor Pelasgus From India

    There is a sloka for the Palnet Ketu in Hinduism,

    ‘Palasa Pushpa Sanakaasam Thaarakarka Mastakam,

    Roudram Roudraatmakam Goram Tham ketum Pranamaamyakam’

    This is a Navagraha Mantra dedicated to Ketu.

    The Flower palasa is dedicated to him.

    ‘Butea Frondosa’ is the botanical name for what is known in Sanskrit as ‘Palasha’ (पलाश) tree, commonly called ‘the Flame of the Forest’ in English.

    In Greek history, Pelasgus was the ancestor of the Pelasgians, a population that were the ancestors of the Greeks – that is they preceded the Greeks and were the source of all knowledge that one sees later in the so-called Greek civilization.

    There is no translation for the name ‘Pelasgus’ in Greek , because Pelasgians spoke a language that pre-dated Greek.

    “”Godlike Pelasgus, on the mountain chase,
    The sable (black) earth gave forth her mortal race.“

    The couplet is originally in Greek, and Asius uses the Greek word ‘gaia’ in the couplet which later interpreters translated as ‘earth’. But Edward Pococke in his book ‘India in Greece’ written in 1851 AD clarifies. He says that it was the word ‘Gaya’ that was tweaked by interpreters into ‘gaia’ in Asius’s work – it was Gaya (in Bihar in India) that ‘gave forth Pelasgus its race’.-Asius,Greek Poet ,700 BC.

    The word ‘Gaya’ that was tweaked by interpreters into ‘gaia’ in Asius’s work – it was Gaya (in Bihar in India) that ‘gave forth Pelasgus its race’

    “It is entertaining to view the process by which the Greeks first misunderstood a Pelasgic term, then fitted out a tale upon on their own translation of what they imagined to be Greek….”

    “The history and origin of ancient Greece were not clearly written down by the Greeks themselves, but ancient Indian writings such as the Puranas, the Mahabharata, and the Rajput genealogies may hold keys to solving some of these questions.”-Coen Vonk.

    The ancient Sanskrit texts Mahabharata, YoginiTantra, and the Vayu Purana mention the city of ‘Gaya’ in Bihar, then called ‘Pelasa’. According to the Vayu Purana the city of Gaya was named after an asura by the name ‘Gayasura’ – who practiced asceticism by praying to God Vishnu. He chanted and sang praises in the name of Vishnu, hence ‘geya’ (गेय) or ‘song’ – from Sanskrit ‘gai’ (गै), to ‘sing’, ‘chant’, or ‘sing praises’.

    ‘a race that in its slow migration towards the West took along with itself the glories of ancient Gaya, they have left their footprints on way. For en-route in their journey is the temple of Rekim-Gaya! The original Aramaic texts (Aramaic was the language that Jesus Christ spoke) say that the name of Petra, the ancient temple of Jordan, was Rekem-Gaya. ‘Rechin’ Gaya translates as Red-Gaya from Sanskrit – ‘rechin’ (रेचिन्) means ‘red’ as against the ‘black’ Gaia that Asius, the Greek poet wrote about in his verses on Pelasgus.

    Pococke traces the exodus of a huge number of people from Bihar (then called by various names including Pelasa and Magadh) towards the Western reaches of the world. In fact, he traces the name Macedonia to Magadha via Makadonia.

    The Greek language is a derivation from Sanskrit, therefore Sanskrit speaking people, i.e Indians must have dwelt in Greece, and the dwelling must have preceded the settlement of those tribes which helped to produce the corruption of the old language; or in other words, the people who spoke that language – i.e., the Indians, must have been the primitive settlers, or at least, they must have colonized the country so early, and dwelt their so long, as to have effaced all dialectic traces of any other inhabitants…“

  • The Fifth Veda Pranava Veda?

    It is accepted traditionally that there are Four Vedas in Hinduism.

    They are not written and transmitted orally since five thousand years.

    The Vedas themselves, Ithihasas,Ramayana and Mahabharata , the entire Sanskrit Literature , and in other languages as well,and the eighteen Puranas declare so,

    Except one…

    Pranava Veda, The Fifth Veda.png
    Pranava Veda, The Fifth Veda.

     

    The Chandogya Upanishad.

     

    It states that there is another Veda, the Fifth veda.

     

    ‘itihāsapurāṇaṃ pañcamaṃ vedānāṃ’

    -Chandogya Upanishad (7.1.2)

     

    It is one thing for an Ithihasa or agreat literary work to be called a Veda, as a  tribute; but a Upanishad, a part of Veda, declaring that there is another Veda, is intriguing.

    ‘the Mahabharata declares itself a new Veda for a new era, intended for all people, and which is the equal of, and in some ways superior to, the four canonical Vedas.The other major Hindu epic, the Ramayana, also makes a claim to be the fifth Veda’

    The Bhagavata Purana elaborates on the Chandogya Upanishad’s statement concerning the fifth, by stating that after the four Vedas emerged from each of Brahma’s four mouths, the fifth Veda – itihasapurana – emerged from his fifth mouth[1] or all his mouths.[6] It then declares itself supreme over all other puranas, on the grounds that it was Vyasa’s crowning achievement.[5] Similarly, the Skandapurana, too, suggests that the puranas are the Fifth Veda, thus giving itself scriptural authority

     

    There is another view that this fifth Veda is called the Pranava Veda and it was from the Pranava ‘OM’

     

    ‘

    Eighty-four year old V. Ganapati Sthapati, is a renowned architect and sculptor.
    Ganapati Sthapati’s range of accomplishments is extraordinary. He has designed and built more than 600 temples in India and the U.S., the U.K., Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Fiji, Sri Lanka and Kenya. He was the architect of Swaminatha Swami Murugan temple, popularly called Malai Mandir, situated on a hillock at Ramakrishnapuram, New Delhi.’

    He asserts that the controversy over which language is older – Sanskrit or Tamil – is needless. He calls Sanskrit “the classical language of sculptors.” He will build a Veda Mandapam in the University to teach not only the Rig, Yajur, Sama and Atharva Vedas but also the Pranava Veda in Tamil. He estimates that the Pranava Veda is older than the other four Vedas. Ganapati Sthapati has already recorded on audio-tape the 50,000 stanzas of the Prananva Veda. He is keen that the Tamil Nadu Government should publish it and spread it.’

    “The Pranava Veda is the first Veda and the “source Veda.” Dr. V. Ganapati Sthapati explains, “A good deal of evidences is available both in Tamil as well as in Sanskrit works, particularly in Srimat Bhagavatam and Skandam about the remote existence of Pranava Veda. This Veda was later on called the science of Vastu (energy) and Vaastu (embodied energy), which is gaining much popularity today across the globe.”

    Dr. V. Ganapati Sthapati goes on to say that Veda Vyasa himself said in the Bhagavatam:

    “eka eva pura vedo pranavha sarva vangmayha”
    (9th skandha, 14th chapter, sloka 48 of Bhagavatam)

    This phrase by Veda Vyasa, the compiler of the present day Vedas, means that there was only one Veda in the remote past and that Veda is called Pranava Veda – the Veda of the shilpis of India. Artharva Sheershopanishad makes mention of the term “Pranava” as being “ongara” – the all-pervasive substance.

    Pranava Veda elucidates the science of Pranava. It is the scientific study of The All Pervading Substance. Pranava Veda presents the science of “how the invisible substance of the universe (paravastu) makes itself manifest in the visible material (Vaastu) forms.” In other words, Pranava Veda reveals the process of how the All Pervasive pure Energy turns into Matter or material existence.(www.vastuved.com)

    My view is that the Fifth Veda needs more investigation before any comment is passed

    Cosmic Dance of Shiva

    A group led by Shiva and Ganesha left from the South of India and traveled to Arctic through the middle east, Europe, Africa,Americas,before returning to Sarasvati valley through Russia and Iran.

    Earlier to this event , the Sanatna Dharma was in the Super Continent of Gondwana and spread easily to Australia.

    There is  also a reference that Australia might have been the repository for weapons, Astra Alaya.

    The wild native tribes of Australia, dance with a ‘Third Eye” painted on their forehead called the ‘Siva Dance’.  (Spencer and Gillen, “The Natives tribes of Central Australia, Figures 128-129, page 21.)

    ”

    About 5 km to the north of the township of Gympie in south-east Queensland is a structure (or series of structures) which has become known as the ‘Gympie Pyramid’.
    There have been many differing claims as to its origins and function. Some of these claims have been quite controversial and gained considerable media attention beginning in 1956 through to the present. In preparing this paper I investigated the various claims and the local folk-lore which surrounds the ‘pyramid’ and attempted to place these in a context which is supported by empirical or historical fact. Documentation was scarce which has meant that the results of my investigation tend to highlight what the structure is not rather than what it is. I hope to remedy this situation by completing a more detailed survey of the site in early 1990…”

    Astra in Sanskrit means weapons, arrows, Aalaya means home,

     

    Australia  might mean home of weapons.

     

    Atomic weapons were used in Mahabharata battle.

  • California From Kapilaranya Of Kapila Hinduism

    There seems to be some connection between Hinduism and California based on the etymology of the word California in the US.

    Earlier I posted an article that the Americas were once called the Patala of Hinduism.

    California is Kapilaranya of Hinduism.jpg
    California,USCalifornia.

    ”

    “The Vedas tell a number of valid facts about ancient America . They call Mexico and Central America Patala. In Sanskrit, Patala means ‘one of the seven regions under the earth and the abode of serpents’ According to the myths, an eagle named Garuda transported thousands of ancient mariners, called snakes (Nagas, there in its beak. Although I feel they came here in ocean-going ships, the implication is clear that they could have flown here as well. The legends of the O’odhams of Arizona describe such a sky-born ship. They call it Nah-Big, a term definitely derived from the Sanskrit Nag-Bhaga or Snake God. One cannot help but become impressed when he reads the O’odham stories of the Nah-Big. It is clear that it was some kind of flying ship. The O’odhams even speak of it as being propelled by an energy generator having positive (male) and (female) female poles…

    In the Mayan-derived dialects along Mexico’s northern east coast down to and including the Central America republics, Patal means ‘abandoned or deserted land; without people.’

    Naga-like derivatives also exist in Mexico . In Sanskrit, Nag-asta means Western Naga Land . The Mayan lowlands down to and including Costa Rica are called Nacaste.

    According to Hindu legends, a naga could turn into a human being. In Mexico, a nagual was a were-animal. Nagual derived from the Sanskrit Nag-Baal, meaning Snake Demon…

    The Hindu Naga Mayas also belonged to a powerful Dravidian group of Nagas calledAsuras. Whether or not the Asuras were demi-gods or demons depended on one’s point of view. The leader of these Naga Asuras was the Hindu (really a Bulgarian) god of precious metals, wealth, traders and even agriculturists (really a group) named Kubera or Khyber (Kheever). For Christians and Jews he was Heber. This Kubera, Khyber, or Heber was leader of a horde called Yakshas or Yakhas (Biblical Joktan?). They were reputed to be both superior mentally and materially. Their servants were called Guhyakhas (Yakha shit). Today, in Judaism, which evolved from the Kubera teachings, the term has changed to Goy, but the meaning has never changed. The Kubera hordes, composed of Yakshas or Yakhas and their Guyakha underclass captured most of India’s undesirables, the unredeemably savage and cannibilistic Rakshasas, exiling them to Ceylon or Lanka. Later, they exiled them to Patala, supposedly in air ships.

    The name California is assumed to have come from Spanish.

    ”

    The word California originally referred to the entire region composed of the Baja California peninsula of Mexico, the current U.S. states of California, Nevada, and Utah, and parts of Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Wyoming.[citation needed]

    The name California is most commonly believed to have derived from a fictional paradise peopled by Black Amazons and ruled by Queen Calafia.[16][17] The story of Calafia is recorded in a 1510 work The Adventures of Esplandián, written as a sequel to Amadis de Gaula by Spanish adventure writer Garci Rodríguez de Montalvo.[18][19][20] The kingdom of Queen Calafia, according to Montalvo, was said to be a remote land inhabited by griffins and other strange beasts, and rich in gold(wiki)”

    It may be noted that this explanation does not seem to be authentic a it it needs citation and refernces.

    However there is another view that the name might have roots from the Sanskrit word ‘Kapilaranya’, the Forest of Kapila.

    Sage Kapila is an Avatar of Lord Vishnu.

    ”

    King Sagara performed a horse sacrifice (Ashwamedha yajna) to prove his supremacy. Lord Indra, the leader of the demigods, became fearful over the results of the yajna, so he decided to steal the horse. He left the horse at the ashram of Kapila, who was in deep meditation. King Sagar’s 60,000 sons, (born of Queen Sumati), and his son Asamanja (born of Queen Keshini) were then sent to find the horse. When the 60,000 sons found the horse at Kapiladeva’s ashram, they thought he had stolen it. When they prepared to attack the meditating rishi (sage), Kapila opened his eyes. Because the sons of King Sagara had disrespected such a great personality, consequently, fire emanated from their own bodies, and they were immediately burned to ashes.[2]

    Later, King Sagara sent his grandson Amshuman to retrieve the horse. Kapiladeva returned the horse and told Anshuman that the sons of King Sagar could be delivered if the Ganges descended to earth and bathed them in her waters. King Sagar’s great-great-grandson,Bhagiratha, eventually pleased Mother Ganga, and asked her to come to earth. Mother Ganga told Bhagiratha that the force of the Ganges falling from heaven would be too great for the earth to sustain, and that she needed someone to break the fall. Bhagiratha then worshiped Lord Siva, who then agreed to accept the descending river upon his head. After the Ganga fell down on the ashes of the 60,000 sons of King Sagara they came alive and got their eternal position.”

     

    Jagadguru Sankaracharya, Sri Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi Swamiji of Kanchipuram, India, who was popularly called as the “Walking God, for his Divine Powers, Spirituality, Universal Love, and Service to Humanity, had said in a speech in 1935 that “Kapilaranya” (meaning Kapila forest) mentioned in the Ancient scriptures of Hinduism was the same as today’s California State of USA.”
