The Out of India Theory- Part 1 Chronology of the Rigveda.

[@87kush87]

Sir, your work is completely based on the Chronology of the Madalas(chapters of Rigveda), based on the chronology of Rishis(sages who composed the hymns), and development of the Vedic sanskrit (like evolution of words and development of meters), which are the roots of it and hence they cannot be challenged or argued upon. You also considered the Physical environment like names(Toponyms) of the rivers, mountains and animals... Your Theory is simply a "Checkmate" to the western scholars who allegedly spoiled the History of the subcontinent... I support you...

[@gunzogunzo6959]

Kush, I have written some comments at the top. Kindly give some counter points. My main thrust is that this author does not deal with "India" as such! Does "India" mean only Sanskritans? If these Sanskritans reverse migrated from "India", then many dark skinned people would have gone with them right? So I am puzzled as to what is it that the "oit" to most of us "Indians".

[@SatyamevaJayate888]

Gunzo Gunzo : The skin color changed as per climatic conditions and lifestyle as this migration took place thousands of years. If a British white man lives for few years in tamilnadu and if he works in a field under sunlight. Then you will notice color change.

[@gunzogunzo6959]

harish H.M Then, tell me why there are darker colored people in the same latitude, longitude and altitude in Northern India along with lighter colored people side by side. FYI, the average color of a person in TN may actually be lighter than the average person in Bihar but that is beyond the point. The skin color is passed down the generations through genetics mainly. So, an association of color with identity of the people and historic migration cannot be simply overridden just like that. This author, as I understand, tries to justify the "reverse" migration theory. Even if he is right, it will only explain that Sanskrit speaking people migrated (a very tall order) from current day North western India which I call as RigVedia. The rest of current day India is not Sanskritan homeland. Even though this author seems to deduce that there was reverse migration, he gracefully explains the true nature of the population of current day India and the languages of the peoples of India since time immemorial. Most of India is of South Indian (aka Dravidian) and Munda stock.

Actually there’s nothing logical here India had waves of migrations proved by genetics: 1 The very first people to come into Indian subcontinent are Called Out of Africa migrants. ( OOA) They are part of great coastal migrations from Africa. 2. The second set of people who came in are : Neo lithic people from Iran who came into Indus Valley region and mixed with the OOA. This population is called ASI Ancestral South Indians 3. The Indo Europeans who speak Indo European languages migrated and mixed with this ASI And formed ANI - ancestral North Indians. The Aryan gene is called R1a1 , This wasn’t found in the Indus Valley population ( see Rakhigarhi DNA results ) Proving that R1a1 came later through Indo European migrations. That’s all.

[@vedicviki1669]

Gunzo Gunzo +Gunzo Gunzor Dude! Looks like you are unaware of different language & racial groups of World & especially India otherwise you would have understood his arguments logically ! First of all He is right that Sanskrit is not the mother of all languages, Its the mother of only Indo european group of languages bcuz Vedic is the oldest & purest tongue of this branch. Secondly The dravidian language group is native to South India only & different from Sanskrit branch but dravidians had a peaceful & amicable relationship with Aryan branch (native to North India) for thousands of years thats why today 60% Tamil, telugu, malyalam etc have Sanskrit vocabulary & Vedas are revered in South India as well. After river Saraswati went dry in 2000BC there was an exodus of Vedic people from Sapt Sindhu to Mesopotamia, Central asia & South India. Thirdly The Munda languages belong to the austro asiatic group of languages so they are not native to India, They migrated here from south east asia. You must first know the basic principles of Linguistics to digest his theory, He has given excellent points in terms of Vedic meters & evolution of language from oldest Indian branch to latest European branch, Any unbiased scholar would be convinced or atleast take them into serious reference for further study !

[@gunzogunzo6959]

Vedic viki Thanks. He was kind enough to have initiated a conversation with me to share his thoughts. I may not be 100% with him but he seems to me to be searching for some truth in his own balanced scholarly ways with human touch as well. Anyway, back to your point, thanks again because there is another bunch of crowd going around saying "Sanskrit is the mother of ALL languages" to which you also seem not to subscribe. I wonder why you said "Sanskrit words" were revered! There were and still rules when words are borrowed from not only Sanskrit but from any other language from any direction in Tamil and Old Kannada to suit the phonetic flow of our languages. For the sake of it I would say Sanskrit words in our Language are just words and not "revered" words or such thoughts have not arisen! These Sanskrit words are in usage just as the word "Police" is in common usage now. Anyway leaving alone silly talk above, I just want to know what is your theory / opinion about the origin of the black colored people in northern India? I am using the word "black" here without any association of inferiority or superiority (which was settled right under the nose of Hitler during Berlin Olympics) but just to denote "people". Do you think that these people were in the land of Rigvedic people and were always part of the Rigvedic people, by that I mean to ask you whether the light colored people and black colored people were sitting next to each other for millennia chanting mantras etc etc? Also, was the converse true? That is, did the lighter skinned people get pushed into Sudrahood and ultimately in large numbers? IMHO, irrespective what others say, whatever happened from whatever period, for whatever reason, darker people were stratified into Sudrahood and lighter colored people were stratified in the first two classes and movement was very rare if it ever in fact happened. So again, what is the origin of the darker people in Northern India?

[@aurosista2342]

Gunzo Gunzo Yeah few fanatics may claim it. But Sanskrit is a one of the root language of Proto dravidian family basis for many North Indian languages. At the same time or even before sanskrit an alternative version of Brahmi language was spoken. At almost same time, the class of Proto dravidian languages developed which later resulted in Tamil and further the Proto south central language family of Telugu Oriya were developed. But during the later vedic period i.e when Atharvaveda and Samaveda talked about ayurveda and Carnatic music these two class of languages interacted. That is the reason we also find few sanskrit words in dravidian languages too. But both origins were different. It is few fanatics who just spread divisions of Aryan invasion which led to more hatered. I hope I did not bore you.

I would like to examine this, but it is too hard to understand and no captions. I am looking into ancient history. So, a well thought out chronology is very helpful to understand to compare to others, and bridge the histories back further. While I once considered an out of India hypnosis, I have made a number of advances in understanding, but the accuracy of the history let's us down in determining places, and which is the oldest places. But the candidate list is short. There is Agartha (Asgard), a place in the attic north, South/South East Asia, the Caucuses. Sumeria, Egypt, Atlantis etc, are all third or more level places. Our History starts stopping at this level. The issue we face, is descriptive names and location transference. Like the Greeks, they have their places of the gods, sacred mountain, and other places, which borrow names. And the names, change through local language population, description. So, the official personal name might not be there. This creates confusion and opportunities for miss--information. The Greeks had a a version of stories and characters already corrupted. I'll have to sleep and take this up latter. I managed to determine the approximate locations where of a few mountains. But, the location of the first are in the caucuses/dead sea, and earlierr towards the Iranian border. But, Thus has proven to be true.

Vedas weren't written down for a long time. They are Shrutis- that which were heard and learnt and passed down the generations. The ghanapatam was codified in such a way that there was no way that any letter in the shloka would be misheard. Every letter in every mantra was repeated in patterns so that it wouldn't go wrong.

I agree with the basic thesis. However, I think he may have brushed-over the subject of the Dasysus too quickly, although I can see how he was focused primarily on aspects of the subject. I think it is an important subaltern of this whole subject. The Five Tribes clearly considered themselves different from the Dasyus. This is seen in verses such as that the Dasyus are “surpassed” by the Aryans (II 11:19) and the sages prayed that the Lord Indra would not “give the water of the Aryans to the Dasyus (X 49:3). They also prayed “may we overcome the Dasyus” (V 70:3). Therefore, the Rishis clearly did not consider the Dasysus to be similar or even connected with them at all. “They are like Vritras” (X 49:6) and obviously rivals. Statements regarding raids to “gain the wealth of the unbeliever (the Dasysus)” (I 81:9) are legion throughout the whole of the Rig Veda and the Sama Veda. Interestingly, in the Atharva Veda, which is an Iron Age document, there are only a handful. It would seem the conflict was settled by that time. There were several distinctions between the Aryans and the Dasysus. First and most greatly emphasized, the Dasysus were religiously distinct from the Aryans. They are “a hostile host without gods” (III 1:6& X 22:8) and the Devas regard them as foes as well. Lord Indra destroys the “unbelievers:” (I 175:3; II 12:10; VIII 2:14 & 98:6) as does Lord Agni: (VII 93:5 & 104:4 X 87:10) and Lord Rudra: (I 64:3) and the sages pray that the Ashvins would “behead the unbelievers” (VI 62:10). Lord Indra also “beheads” them (X 23:2). Lords Mitra and Varuna “exterminate” them (VI 67:9). The text gives us only one detail about the “false gods” when it is written that “Indra destroys the phallus-worshipers” (X 99:3). Second, the Dasyus did not seem to speak the same language as the Aryans as they are “babbling unbelievers” confounded by Lord Agni (VII 6:3). I have to wonder if the Dasyus were the Indus Valley Civilization with their stone buildings. This is because Lord Indra is said to have overthrown “100 stone built cities” (IV 30:20) and the Dasysus had “forts of iron” (II 20:8) not literally but poetically as indestructible. This reminds me of the statement of the Goths when they rampaged though the Eastern Empire “we are at peace with walls” since they had no siege technology. The same is said of cities (VIII 100:8 & X 101:8) that they are “iron.” There is even mention of “a stone cow fold” (X 67:3) associated with the Asura but this could simply be calling the Dasysus the name 'Asura' in the way the Germans in WW II were called 'demons,' especially since I have already quoted the verse that they were like the Asura Vritras in his dragon form. Perhaps these are Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro. One point to further support this is the 'Harappan Lingam' since the Dasysus were associated with phallus-worship, as mentioned. All that this tells us is that the Five Tribes were in conflict with another people in the region and that both engaged in cattle and horse raiding against each other in much the same way that the American Indians once did on the Northern Plains. I don't think this is uncommon in human history and it is not proof that the Aryans invaded from outside. In the universe of possibilities there are a number of possibilities which can be constructed to account for all the facts given in the texts.

[@shrutiji5550]

James Schuur Hi James! Certainly there were groups which were in constant conflicts with each other. Rigved gives just one perspective of writers of that time. Shrikant mentioned that that not all people on the subcontinent were writers of Vedas.They were Puru's who were basically writing the vedas with the old books written by families.As Asura also said to be enemies but at some points even Varun has said to be one of the Asur and Infact the Zorasthurian's call themselves Asur and consider Dev as bad people and in Vedas Asur are bad and Dev are good.And there is constant conflicts seen between Dev and Asur throughout the Indian Mythology.But there is no clear differentiation of these people over skin color. And for that matter if Asur were dark flat nosed people as said by many western scholars then which will mean the Arab people who called themselves Asur were of dark skin...this will start whole lot of confusion.When I read those hymns I also felt that the important person of that time was praised immensely in the hymns and prayed to provide people riches who were writing these hymns as they considered themselves holy and everyone apart from them was considered non God worshipers cause they had different ways of worshiping God.But it seems all these societies were coexisting and there are no proves that one had better harappan like settlements and other didn't. Plus at Harrapan sites many fire atlar are found being of this society and being Hindu I know what does that means. I have seen lot of images of the sites of the Fire Altars which are definitely not for cooking but for holy rituals.Which explains that these sites were inhabited by the vedic people.

[@gravewalker34]

I have found sumerian records of a place named aratta from where they imported lapis lazuli. And sutras and Mahabharata place this region in punjab afghanistan eastern iran. And proof is sankrit word for competitor rival and enemy is aratti. So it means indus wasnt vedic civilization but they were sister and rival civilization of kurukshetra in harayana.

[@vikramrazdan5680]

The division/sub-division of Rigveda shows that it was compiled over a long period of time (a few thousand years). And in such a long time period, a natural attrition process would have occurred where some verses would have been dropped, lost or replaced. It is simply not possible for RigVeda to have maintained its size 100% over such a long period. Therefore, Talageri's assertion that Rig Veda is same as it was as a 'tape recording' shows preservation of quality at 100%, not size.

[@raosaheb5637]

excellent work! we came to conclusion that different set of names originated in different period? is it possible that different set of groups must have wrote them. for e.g punjabi names sukhwinder and jatinder ends with inder but maharashtrian names dont and yet we both are contemporaries. vedvyas (krushna dwaipayan) name means compiler of vedas. as per my understanding he just compiled 3 vedas from various sources available at his time to prevent the loss/ corruption of the vedas. i think ramayan mentions 3 vedas and mahabharat mentions 4th (saam)

The place was known as Ram Janamsthan. But that is a matter of belief. It cannot help you prove that Shri Ram was actually born there. You can only prove that people believed this place to be Shri Ram's birthplace.That belief existed even during the Mughal era and was proven in the court. But more importantly it was proven that a Ram temple existed before the Babri Masjid was built over it.

Which some scholars interpreted as Brahmi and that it was form Bramha himself. How come this not refereed in the Vedas.

[@gunzogunzo6959]

I listened to the author for three hours. I always had a belief that if nobody questions at least some part of the presentation, then they had just been sleeping through or they just act as "yes" people just they do in many many religious gatherings of all sorts. All of the commenters so far for this videao seem to be from "yes" people. This author is to be commended for the following assertions: (1) Linguistically Sanskrit and Euoropean Languages are in the same class of languages. This is a concept adopted by all scholars and hence no conflict. (2) He outrightly dismissed the idea of many Sanskritans who say "Sanskrit is mother of all languages". He in fact scolds them unequivocally. I admire this man for his neutrality. He gave very simple explanation for this saying that for the number "3" the words are "Moonu" (or similar) in Tamil / Telugu / Kannada / Malayalam and Tulu while it is "thiri" or something like that in Sanskrit, Latin, English, German etc etc. (It is not just one word the entire counting words, onnu, rendu, moonu, naalu, anju, aaru, elu, ettu, ombathu, pathu (hathu),... nooru are completely different in these languages from Sanskrit). He also clearly and unequivocally stated that Munda languages are are also completely different from Sanskrit. Again, my laurels to him. (3) It seems to me that he is completely in agreement with the title of the problem with the AIT theorists: "Since Sanskrit and other Indo European languages have very common words, one needs to explain how this could be so; either people went from "India" to central Asia and Europe or the reverse is true but only one of this is true". (4) I have a problem to start with both on AIT guys and OIT guys. Why are they using the words "India"? During the times under discussion which obviously is the time of Rig Veda, there was no country called India. India did not exist as we are accustomed to these days! This author also correctly places the "Rig Vedic" land in Punjab/pakistan/Afghanistan and possibly a bit of Rajastan and Gujarat. So I really condemn the use of the term "India" in such discussions. Unless this RigVedic homeland was, let us say in Assam or Vizag country or Trivandrum or area around Chennai and Bangalore, it is very counterproductive to call "rig vedic" homeland to be "India"! (5) I also object to the use of the word "Indians". In those days there were no "Indians". I can coin a new term called "Rig Vedia" which comprises of the lands of current north western India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and also call the people who lived there as "rig vedic people" or simply as "Sanskritans". (6) In my humble opinion, this author more or less seems to say that that this "Rig Vedia" was a "country" belonging to the superset of various IE tribal lands. Once the problem is restated as this, one can perhaps accept his theory of OIT or rather "Out of Rig Vedia". So, temporarily atleast, I agree with this author that OIT (I mean out of Rig Vedia) is a possibility. But then this author, for what reason I do not know, does not say a word about how his ancestors landed up in Karnataka which is a homeland of the people who were counting the numbers as "onnu, rendu, moonu" etc! He also does not say why Sanskrit or related languages are not the language of the masses from that day to this day in vast territories of current day India. His own boundaries of Rig Vedia is far in the north and west. He neither raises the question nor answers the question of all of the peoples in current day India. Though he says that the dravidian language remaining far north (Brauhi) is that of some people who migrated "recently", he completely omits saying anything about the people of the south. Nor does he touch about the darker skinned people of North India itself! He does not touch upon the skin color of the people at all. In a scholarly article like this, I think it is very much OK to talk about skin color as well and make the dots connect. Importantly, I want to question this author as to why the Sanskritans "moved" out of "Rig Vedia" to central Asia and onwards. Was it to find pastoral lands? for mining and metallurgy? Or perhaps their uncle and aunts were living there? After all Southern India and Eastern India, would have had people and land and food and water in plenty while those areas like Iran, Anatolia etc would have been colder and not that much greenery! Please tell me how come that people from "Rig Vedia" went as far away as Germany and made them to count 3 as as "Three" but just neither bothered nor successful in making the people in the current day South India to do the same? Why is he not explaining anything about the real people of India? I commend the author because his attack of the problem is correct. We all know that language of peoples can be changed easily if the rulers are bent on doing that. However, no language can be "created" just like that! So my own conclusion is that the people of all of current day India were black, the rulers came from the west and changed the language of the peoples in the north but failed to advance militarily further into the south; they just settled there and created their caste system. It is not within the realm of common sense that "Indians" reverse migrated through harsh terrains of the north west crossing mountains and deserts (for what? Please tell me)! I love this author for having scolded the ordinary stupid "Indians" who say things like "Sanskrit is the mother of all languages", "Vedas were spoken by Gods since the beginning of times" and such complete nonsense. I am so much amazed that all the "yes" people below could not write a point in favor or against!

[@gunzogunzo6959]

If the Sanskritans migrated from India to central Asia and onwards, they would have taken taken with them the four fold class system as well as darker colored "Indians" too, right? I honestly believe that this author is a very neutral scholar. He perhaps did not think about this. Can someone answer on behalf of me? Please.

[@sgtalageri]

Gunzo Gunzo Firstly, the four class system is post-Rigvedic. Secondly, the emigrants were from non-Rigvedic Indo-European tribes (Anus and Purus, while the Rigvedic people were Purus) to the west of the Purus. Thirdly, the Anus and Druhyus to the west of the Purus were perhaps from more "white" skinned areas than even the Purus, let alone the people further south and east. Fourthly, as in all IE migration theories, the languages were transmitted by complicated historical processes from the original speakers, through chains of migrations in different stages, and the ultimate speakers of the IE languages were the local people of each area, and not genetic descendants of the original emigrants.

[@sgtalageri]

Thank you for appreciating the rationality of my basic approach and attitude at least. The questions you have raised, however, are based on the fact that you have seen only the first part of the "Out of India theory", which gives the evidence about the dating of the Rigveda based on datable records. The other two parts (actually not yet recorded) would answer all your questions. The second part gives the textual evidence: The Rigvedic Aryans were the Purus of Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh. The Indo-European languages now found outside India as far west as Europe (and now all over the World) are descendants of languages originally taken out of India by migrants from two other non-Puru tribes to their west (the Anus and Druhyus), and the people of the rest of India were the other internal tribes of India (Yadus, Turvasas, Ikshvakus, and other recorded and unrecorded ones), speakers of other IE languages, Dravidian, Munda, etc.. So my description of the situation is, as in your own words, that the Rigvedic land belonged " to the superset of various IE tribal lands" extending inside India. The texts actually describe the spread of the Anus and Druhyus also from the interior of India into Afghanistan and beyond. And we have to use words like "India", Punjab, Haryana, Europe, etc. even if those names were not there in those times. We can not describe areas in latitudes and longitudes. And India is described in the texts as one unit, by whatever name, and however diverse and itself consisting of totally independent units. And this area is one physically enclosed area bounded by the oceans and mountains. We call it India today, so we certainly can use that term to describe the area. And isn't it better to call it by a name "India" common to the whole area rather than as "Rigvedia" on the basis of a text, the Rigveda, which was one text composed by the people of one small part of the whole? You find it puzzling as to why Rigvedic people "went as far away as Germany and made them to count 3 as as 'Three' but just neither bothered nor successful in making the people in the current day South India to do the same". No-one set out on a missionary program of making people change their language. The changes took place as part of historical processes unknown to us. Wherever you place the IE homeland, this puzzle will continue to apply to all the other IE areas outside the homeland area. In the case of the Indian homeland, we have textual evidence (my yet unrecorded second part of the OIT) which records the migrations of the IE groups (not "Rigvedic" Puru, but mainly "non-Rigvedic" Anu and Druhyu) out of India as well as the historical developments which triggered off these migrations. My third (and unrecorded) part of the "Out Of India" theory shows that all the linguistic evidence without exception also proves the Indian homeland theory. This is basically a language issue and not a skin colour one. The dark-skinned Sinhalese speakers (here you have a group of probably Dravidian speakers oif the south who adopted a branch of IE language which uses archaic words like "watura" for water) and the fair-skinned Kashmiris are both IE speakers within India.  Show less

[@sgtalageri]

You have asked above why the OIT is so important to Indians from other parts of India. Well, I think any Indian will be proud of achievements of Indians from any other part of India. If the IE languages spoken almost exclusively over four of the seven continents (N. and S. America, Australia and Europe) and importantly in parts of Asia, and known to most other non-IE speakers as well, originated in a part of India, all Indians will be proud of it. I myself am as proud of the Andamanese as of of the Vedic people: the Andamanese constitute one of the three native races of India and one of the six language families of India, and I am greatly pained over their present commercial exploitation and state of near-extiction. Moreover, it is also a question of the mischief being done in India by regional and casteist forces in the name of the AIT. A refutal of the AIT can be a matter of satisfaction for any Indian from any part of India. All this is apart from the objective academic value of the question.

[@aryaputra001]

@Malini salim babu The latest genetic evidence which shows no steppe pastoralist or early Iranian farmer DNA in the Rakhigarhi skeleton proves that language and culture of the IVC/SVC and larger scale agriculture in the subcontinent was indigenous to India and did not come by way of any migration that might have happened in later years.. And besides the out of India migrations is proved by the fact that the same study identified skeletons in Iran and Turkmenistan whose DNA showed that they were of IVC ancestry and were buried with artifacts from the Indian subcontinent. Please read the linguistic, hydrological, archaeoastronomical, archeological, agricultural and genetical studies before you comment.

[@aryaputra001]

@Malini salim babu again nobody is saying there were no migrations..IVC is something like 80% of the modern day Indian genome.. The steppe contribution according to the genetic study is after the decline of the IVC period.. again the vedic people (no such thing as vedic Aryan) were not nomadic or pastoralist!!! The Vedas/upanishads/puranas have lots of urban moorings and the earliest books of the Vedas refer to eastern India ( haryana,eastern up) and the later books refer to Western up and further west.. this shows the cultural moving from East to west.. Please read talageri to get an idea..I hate having to write long treatises to explain all this to newbies..

[@aryaputra001]

Oh please..r u seriously kidding me with the peer reviewed cartel bull?? They have been exposed for the frauds that they are in field after field except in the hard sciences like physics, chemistry and biology..To wit Peter bogossian, Alan Sokal etc al.. that imbecilic coward Michael witzel wouldn’t even take Talageri’s challenge to debate him or atleast refute his linguistic analysis. The lot are nothing but echo chambers filled with cowards who protect their turf with no regard to scientific research or evidence but simply to stroke their egos. And why would I reference any of that crap if I disagreed with their premise, methodology, evidence interpretation or false translation. Ok just to entertain you here is an idea. The AIT scholars if you have been reading the latest developments have after losing in the field of linguistics, archaeology and archaeoastronomy, hydrology, studies of landmass Submergence after the end of the ice age, have abandoned those fields and renaming their theory aryan migration instead of invasion and are now taking refuge in the field of genetics. What they fail to note is that genes don’t tell you anything about language and culture. For example the R1A1 gene which is considered a marker for the aryan race is 23% in the southern Kota tribe which is considered pure Dravidian, 26% in the Chenchu tribe, above 50% in the Manipuri Meiti tribe which speaks a SINO Tibetan language, in the Arabic speaking shamma tribe of Kuwait 46%, Hebrew speaking ashkenazi Levite’s 52% and all of these are considered non aryan!!! But now the so called aryan races like Zoroastrians who are endogamous and the gene should be the highest concentration the gene is less than 20%,in Germans the pure aryan race 17%, in Brits who colonized us its 11%. Now if I brought you blind samples of this and asked you to pick in which population did the so called aryan race and religion and culture and language originate you would obviously pick the wrong population because based on your theory the population with the highest concentration of R1A1 would be picked but that is found in the non aryan population!! So there goes your genetic evidence for AIT! Thanks for being my onion for the day. Cheers.
