  1. Also as I understand, the Samaṇa (Sanskrit: Śramaṇa) movement -- including Buddhism, Jainism, et al -- was the organised response/resistance of south Asia's tribal and IVC/Dravidian peoples to the spread of Vedism, and it prompted the Upaniṣadic movement within Vedic Hinduism.

  2. As I understand, yoga, meditation, equality, & viewing the forest as sacred came from the Indus Valley Civilisation (proto-Dravidian) and AASI/tribal peoples, in contrast to the caste-hierarchical, fire-sacrificing, horse-and-plains culture of the Vedic Indo-Aryans.

  3. The oldest Buddhist texts are probably the poetry written in archaic Ṛgvedic triṣṭubh & jagatī metres: most of the Sutta Nipāta, some of the Dhammapada (49, 100-115, 129-148, 151, 155-156, 179-180, 183-185, 197-200, 336-337, 360-361, & 400-423), some Theragāthā/Therīgāthā & Udāna, & the Itivuttaka.

  4. This is awesome!! The first 2 minutes are worth it. I have to learn how to #speed #up #YouTube videos. I don't have 15 minutes for myself let alone somebody else's video. 😹😹😹 But I am familiar with #egregores. #Vedic #technology discusses these things. This is not occult anything. #Mind technology.

  5. Anybody that knows what I'm talking about when I say #Gurudev might be interested. #Vedic scholars are way past me. Any devotees running around might be interested.

  6. I am listening to my next audiobook, and was today years old when I learned the term “#SkyFather” is derived from Indus River Valley / #Vedic #culture / #Sanskrit roots

  7. The ancient #Indian #Vedic concept of #education consisted of three steps. First, the student listens as the #teacher explains a particular subject or truth.
    Then he conscientiously and persistently engages with what he has learned.
    Finally, he #meditates on it.
    The teacher attentively accompanies him throughout all these steps. The process is only complete when the #student discovers the truth for himself after the third step.

  9. "Shivaratri" is the perfect time to take in this beautiful rendering of "Rudra and Chamaka".

    The recitation is by K.V. Raman, whom I have had the pleasure of working with for the last two months (during my #Udupi sabbatical).
