The Lost temple of INDIA - part 1/6

[chantalxddx2009]

Does anyone no where i can find good historical videos about India?

[Saraswathiputra]

Read history elaborately and sincerely.Already,those Aryan Invasion theory debunked by most reliable genetics also but brainless Dravidian politicians using it to fool innocent people.

Instead,of thank those Northern brothers for their sacrifice!.

It is recorded those Northern Indians forcefully sent back lot of Intellectuals to safe places in South India.They have too much loved and respected South India.

[Saraswathiputra]

TamilNation2010

Sorry,dont make yourself as egoistic fool like those Dravidian politicians who in reality agents of British!

The advantage of Tamil country is protected very ancient culture and tradition of India which existed in North India also.

As Tamil Nadu surrounded by sea,the huge number of Islamic invasions from North which are stopped by great fighting of our Northern brothers and lot of bloodshed by them.

Else,those evil Muslim here might be reached Tamil Nadu and would be spoiled it.

[jgbloyd]

And whole temples made of GRANITE!!! Wouldn't that count as a lost technology? I mean, how the heck???

[jgbloyd]

"...moved more stone than the pyramids of Egypt" in a single ruler's lifespan? I don't buy the standard story of who built the Pyramids in Egypt, and I definitely don't buy this story. I would sooner go with the ancient legends of the area and what the people there today would have to say.

[Varoonmg]

@jgbloyd The narrator didn't say that he moved more stones than all the Pyramids of Egypt, but more than the amount needed to build the Pyramid of Gizah, that is the Largest Egyptian Pyramid..

But the Great Living Chola Temple remains the largest Granite structure in the world...

[Myobokuuzan]

hinduism is such a beautiful religion :)

[Mskumar247]

@tamilnation2010 who told u? All the temples in tamilnadu are in under the control of hindu charitable board,govt of tamilnadu. No one can claim it!

[TamilNation2010]

@Mskumar247

if you're a Tamil, then you're a blind dumb arse. of course it matters. can Tamils hold positions in Temples in kerala or karnataka?

[123456vwxyz]

Get the facts right, Tajmahal was not built by Shahjahan.

[123456vwxyz]

What.....it was not discovered by some english fellow it existed there for centuries and in 1838 some english fellow learnt about it.

[meret99]

PS: And when I say that the Lord "danced His Tandava", I say it in a symbolic sense...it is the dance of the atoms, depicted in the famous bronzes, the Nataraja, the Divine Dancer

[meret99]

Sorry, although you have tried to research your topic faithfully, you have misrepresented the "lingam" as the phallic symbol. It is actually a symbol of the creation of the universe without beginning or end, a column of light which was first seen with the Big Bang, when this Lord danced his Tandava, the Dance of Creation....it also depicts the pineal gland, or the Third Eye, represented by this same Lord Shiva, from whence Consciousness is awakened.

[jmbatchawin]

As a thanjorian i am very much proud about Big temple



[TamilNation2010]

@jmbatchawin

I hear that all great amd important temples in TamilNadu is controlled and administered by non Tamils...like telugus and malayaless. Is this correct?

[nirwana07]

@TamilNation2010 does it matter as long as they are hindus?

[TamilNation2010]

@nirwana07

it does matter. any temples or such administered by Tamils in kerala or karnataka? is that allowed in those states?

[nirwana07]

@TamilNation2010 ....there is no law barring tamils from adminstering any temples in any state

[TamilNation2010]

@nirwana07

:). definitely. but the issue isnt the law, it's the racist mindset of malayalees and telugus....can you change that? as if Tamils are the enemies...what wrong has the Tamils done to keralans and karnatakans and telugus? Tamils are discriminated everywhere....

[nirwana07]

@TamilNation2010

U ARE RACIST. that is why u see racism everywhere...bloody fanatic

[TamilNation2010]

@nirwana07

hahaha...yes, i am proud of my people. but we dont jeopardise others like others do...but first answer me, why arent there Tamils in positions of government in other states in india, however you can get telugus, malayalees, karnats, punjabis, gujhus, sindhis, bengalis and many2 more in positions of power in trade, religious and governents in Tamil Nadu? dont say Tamils arent good enough. lets be practical....answer me.

[nirwana07]

@TamilNation2010 who said they are no tamil holding high position elswhere. ppl like chidambaram holding high position in central govt. maybe there are more telugus holding high ranking position in tamil nadu then tamil in andra because more telugus in tamil nadu then tamils in andra. naturally when number of population (i belive telugus are largest minority in tamil nadu....while in andra largest linguistic minority would be urdu speaking. where telugus holding high ranking position inTN?

[TamilNation2010]

why are you talking about chidambaram, he's just 1 Tamil.

bullshit i would say to you regards pop. ratio, telugus should go back to andhra,leave TamilNadu to Tamils. you JUST CONFIRMED WHAT I HAVE BEEN STATING ALL ALONG, THAT MORE TELUGUS HOLDING HIGH RANKING POSITION IN T.N., not only telugus, but other races as well.all these races have conspired to remove Tamils from positions of power in TamilNadu, in order to enslave Tamils as working class coolies.its a subtle move over a period of time.

[nirwana07]

@TamilNation2010 ...borders of nation is fluid...not fixed...if u want non tamils to leave tamil nadu ...all tamils who hold such views should go back and settle in tamil nadu..wherever they from...sri lanka, USA,UK,Malaysia,Singapore...al­l should go back to tamil nadu. i know enough tamils who are tolerent...who live side by side to other races...with whom we can interact in sensible manner...these tamils can leave anywhere they want

[TamilNation2010]

well, looks like you know there aint many Tamils in telugu land..rite? coz they arent allowed or welcomed. dont change the subject by involving other countries. all Tamils are welcomed to TamilNadu. even MADRAS REGIMENT is manned and controlled by malayalees, what does that say? what i mention is true, you are just justifying bullshit. the truth is, non-Tamil Indians have conspired to take over all positions of power in T.N., in order to subjugate & enslave Tamils in their own homeland.

[Dzongka]

@TamilNation2010 What about Tamil Brahmins.

[TamilNation2010]

@Dzongka

The greatest of evil is treason. traitors and betrayers are known, and will be judged accordingly....

[Dzongka]

@TamilNation2010 I don't quite understand. What do Tamil Brahmins have to do with evil and treason?

[TamilNation2010]

@Dzongka

Why do you question as such, because you know those group of people actually let these non-Tamils come into the nation, and like parasites took over everything that is Tamil.

[Dzongka]

@TamilNation2010 I hope you understand this: a nation is where anyone, from any corner of the country, is able to migrate freely to any part of the realm and adopt the culture of that area. Perhaps you don't recognize this, but it is true.

[TamilNation2010]

@Dzongka

if thats the case, why isnt the arabs allowing the jews to come into their countries?

[Dzongka]

@TamilNation2010 What exactly do Jews have to do with Arabs, culturally and racially? Especially now that Ashkenazi Jews are claiming the Middle East as their homeland, even when genetically they're no different from the average North-Central European.

[deadleader1]

@TamilNation2010" all tamils are welcome to toiletnadu"..lol joke of the toilet less!..aioo andawahee kadulee!

our leader velu`s mother paarwathi-ammaa was refused to enter tamilnadu by naamthamilarr...remember?..lol poisollu wandaam..ok soothala kambiokka!

[jmbatchawin]

As a thanjorian i am very much proud about Big temple

[toddschome]

5 stars to Michael Bell the narrator. The best for me son far. Long live raziel

[polashtithi]

we feel proud to be a hindu because it is the first and original religion of the world 

[injamaven]

I don't care for his sarcastic tone. Lost temples, got to be kidding!!

[Chhenu]

Its sad that a good documentary like this one also adhered to the fake version of Shahjana making Taj Mahal. Truth is it was a Shiva temple TejoMahalya vandalized by perverted Shajahan who kept 5000 women in his haram for pleasure. How cud he love just one woman so much? Everyone is bought into this fairy tale story kept alive by Congress to this day. Taj in deed was Tejo Mahalya a great Shiva temple. Jai Bharat!

[nirwana07]

@Chhenu hahahahahahahahahahahahahhaa..­...

[Chhenu]

@nirwana07, laughed on what? After 7 months of my comment? ha hahahahahahahahahaha

[ashil07]

Following ancestor is just like accepting that water is compose of H2O and Hydrogen and oxygen are composed of electrons, protons and neutrons. They have been practicing those beliefs for centuries. they have learnt smthing in practice. No one as seen the electrons, its just an sensation and virtue that exists, and its same way ancestral beliefs smthing that had been set up for millennium..

[raulahuatl]

NOTICE....ALL PSEUDO LOST TEMPLES, CITIES....WERE NOT DISCOVERED BY SOME EXPLORER....ASK LOCALS....THEY HAVE KNOWN FOR CENTURIES ABOUT THEM.....ONLY THING A EXPLORES DOES IS TO BRING IT NEW TO ITS CULTURES....BRING THE NEWS HOME.

[PrinceWilliamAntichr]

min 1:00 - 3:00 history of thaj mahall, u can jump that

[Delisle4]

I am always left in awe as to how man can be so moved to create such incredible feats of engineering. If only we could use this human energy to help and love each other and the Earth, then the whole world would be one temple...the temple of man and his world...just think of it...

[worldd09]

I know many intelligent and educated Indians. What i cannot understand is how they believe in that stuff, it is better to believe in nothing rather than just follow the ancestors. We are in the age of enlightenment. We have to use our brains not just to follow.

[n33rav]

@worldd09 i think to get enlightment we have to follow our ancestors..something that no mess left afterword..this age whatevr we do, we'r just making mess & hurting the environment and eventuly we'r just draging our self to the loop hole of end.anyways just try to go to temple and do puja and sit for a while ur eyes closed..and see what u feel.

[prabaharanaece]

@n33rav our life is too small for us to make all mistakes and learn. so if you dont follow your ancestors. u may be starting a fresh rather than continuing the good work that already done. so it is better to follow :)

[lablask]

@worldd09 you cannot rationalize god and the path reach to him,,,,you don't have the bloody right to do it!!!!!!!

[lnpkural]

@worldd09 Ancestors were smarter than us. The 7 great sages (Rishis) knew more about the universe than we do. Remember , we won't know anything without concepts developed by ancient Indians. What do you know about the Hindu cosmogony ? You should read about Carl Sagan's view of it.

[asyq5]

@worldd09 : to my knowledge hinduism is the only religion where you can question the belief and not get killed or ostrasized by the society. Also, hinduism clearly states that one has to find the truth by himself and not blindly follow. I dont understand what other "stuff" you are talking about. And are you telling me you are not blindly following your ancestors? - for eg: if u have a kid, did the kid take the mothers last name?

[ajha55]

Hindus believe in Vedas, which explained theory of creation, confirmed by modern Physicists, in the form of Big Bang. We believe in staying healthy by Yoga and love Mother Earth like God. We believe that objective of this life is Dharma(right socially just behaviour), Arth(money), Kam (pleasure) and Moksha( salvation). We have only two command to follow Satya(Truth) and Ahimsa(nonviolece). We believe in one God called :BRAHM", creator of Universe and pray three times by chanting Gayatri.

@worldd09 You are not even the student of faith so what would you know of enlightment, keep using your brains

[banheden]

@worldd09 And yet i get the feeling that you are doing exactly the opposit of what you preech here... This is not the age of enlightenment... its the age of forgetting and darkness, and you are not using your brain to see that, you are blindfolded like all the other sheeple.

[vikrantsharma161]

proud to be hindu .

[Ziggurathss]

thank u

[tigersoup]

died giving birth to their 14th child????? are you kidding me? ofcourse she is going to die! what kinda of love making is that... that just plain logic of have a cattle farm.

[Ziggurathss]

thanks

[Ooga001]

worthless untouchable (westerners) again denigrating Shiva by calling the Linga a "phallic symbol". They are truly demented; seeing sexual organs, objects, and sexual motives everywhere and anywhere; so typical of subhuman animals; no wonder we Hindus call non-Hindus untouchables.

A Linga is the FORMLESS form of GOD. That is what it was, is, and always will be. We don't need dead-jew bastard on a stick (jesus the junk) worshiping untouchables to tell us what it means, thank you.

[sunshine7018c]

I'm christian, and I think the origin of all religions is in India. Just read their great stories, study them, and you will see the great amount of details in them. all the other religions look like copies from this original, they lack of details. The more science advances, the better explained are these indian old stories. Just look at them.

[subroto81]

The phallus also represents male energy, in the universe there is male energy and female energy ..the phallus is a symbol of male energy. There are many chants or mantras attributed to this energy, Instead of arguing about its meaning, I urge people to go chant some of the mantras for about6-8 hours a day for a month straight, don't eat meat for the time being..then come back and tell everyone what u believe then instead of meaningless arguments.

[kamalanathanworld]

tajmahal is builded 16 th century

tanjaore siva temple is the lost temple in india is made- AD-985

now its last year we are all celebrate this temple 1000 YEARS AGO .

WATCH my all friends

[Ruhi2885]

These temples are source of satanism, satan worship, worship of evil things like penis, sexual activities explicitly depicted and horned bulls in these temples indicate that the inspiration of these monuments is from Satan, The accursed one exiled from Eden by Lord, The True God

[fulcrum29]

@Ruhi2885 get a life, see a psychiatrist for treating your blind hate. you are the christian mirror image of terrorists like kasab.

[alllman2000]

@Ruhi2885

How do you know the "True God"?

[shamkishore]

@Ruhi2885

blah blah....

[DefLepLvr1]

What an amazing discovery! Thanks for posting this.

[nilesh1dude]

You tube is a great religious fight

[ganeshradh11]

This is a story about south indian temples. You missed the remaining amazing part of the documentary

[dasgroover]

As you represent Sri Ganesh

I will follow as You advise

namaste

Prabhaapati das

[punkshking]

barbarism +rape+murder+destruction+relig­ion conversion+cruelty=moghuls n the worst of them shahjahan

aurangzeb!

[soccer1ish]

Not all the Moghuls were evil.Many moghul kings didnt care

about the islam or Hindu religion.But I agree with you that Aurangzeb was really evil.And he was also the reason why

the hindu Maratha Empire started angrily the war against moghuls

and was able to defeat the moghuls after the death of aurangzeb.

[kamasutrair]

why shahjahan??his mother was a hindu princess from jodhpur?he treated hindus/rajputs with respect?

[TheChuchulainn]

@punkshking "aurangzeb" cursed be his name.

[punkshking]

muslim n their thought hav always demolished any piece of sacred idol of gods in india n world,they think world id limited to their religion only ...

[punkshking]

shahjahan was a worst muslim ruler of all time n a cheap womenizer.

unable to think n create any thing!

that crap had just looted the marvellous hindu temple tejo mahalaya n converted into a barbaric muslim piece of creation n beauty !

[vitravlos]

Thank you so much for posting the video:)

[punkshking]

islamic invasions in india had killed many civilization.cultures,and destroyed magnifnt temples... like tejo mahalaya alias taj mahal!!!

[thunderheart226]

i heard 80 million hindus died at the hands of muslims is this true?

[retrospex]

shah jahan? yeah b.s.

''Tejo Mahalaya" ...get it right

[Saraswathiputra]

Even deep south in the so called Dravidian lands also Kiratas is given to people who are cruel hearted wicked doing people.This is very ancient impression and as such the so called Kiratas in olden days culture less barbarians.Vedic people conquered them and gave culture and civilized life.

[novasssh]

Taj Mahal should also be a reverence to the thousands and thousands of Hindus/Indians who worked on it....and later have their thumb cut(if legends are to be believed)..not just the story of a muslim king who loved one of his wife(apparently he has dozens)..I may be wrong but thats my personal opinion!

[real1akshay]

yeah man shah jahan was so meanhe cut hindu hands off. I HATE HIM!!!!!!

[srevan123]

It is disguise that People who are uneducated on this subject, dont understand anything about hinduism and indian culture comment on indian daities and temples. pathetic commentary, this should be taken out from posting

[PindzMedia]

You think this was build by HANDS ???

NOT POSSIBLE !!

[lazybones200]

u think pyramids in egypt where built with a drill and a circular saw ? and a claw hammer ? ..

[PindzMedia]

with UFOs / Flying Saucers / Vimanas

[riptiderobin15]

I can't believe what they just try to call the symbol of Shiva...phalic shaped...that is so disturbing, I know many things are shaped that way on purpose but to call something so religous that is kinda insulting. why don't these people get their facts straight?...sheesh i may never look at that shiva symbol the same way again...

[giingee]

The phalic shaped shiva idol is called 'Lingam'. search for what the word lingam means.

[riptiderobin15]

I read up on the meaning of lingam however, they give many meanings, including one that states it's a symbol of well...manhood. But it also gave many other meanings for the word. Basically it is a symbol of Shiva, and i guess it can be in interpreted anyway.

Also, at my home we have a black snake(cobra) statue, that represents Shiva, so could the lingam just be in the shape of coiled snake or something, just a theory.

[prasanthlal80]

hhhhhhh

[diliprai]

udarshan Raj Tiwari in his book The Brick and the Bull, 2002 (Pg. 23) states, The similarities among the cultural practices of bygone days leave little doubt that the Kirats(indo-mongoloid)did indeed came from the Indus-Saraswati Valley.

-----> The Manusmriti identifies the Kiratas as one of the eleven tribes who inhabited the Indus-Saraswoti region.

-----> watch the video "Connexion of Mongolia-Kirat:Revealing the Mystery of Origin of Phallus Stone Worship" and you decide!!!!

[vdoslave87]

omg the ignorance!! u need to get ur facts straight.. tht is actually supposed to b a phallus u retard..

why do u think they call it a shivLING?

[riptiderobin15]

You know your hateful and rude comment doesn't convince me. In fact your the ignorant/retarded one, bc if you didn't notice i read up on it and there is no solid proof of this. Maybe you don't understand what that is, research, rather than just accepting something at face value.

Go back into your hole and pick up a book or better yet finish middle school and then talk.

[vdoslave87]

my bad.. i did some more reading on it later n turns out there are more than just one interpretations of it.

[RELeeOnTraveller]

I think you may have meant to write cork soakers. From the Saturday Live skit, right?

[apn4m3rdrock]

GET SOME FACTS STRAIGHT:

1. KARMA = ACTION, western ignorance is quite evident in this video when they use it in place of 'KARMA PHALAM' which means "FRUIT OF ONE'S ACTION" (which is what you were trying to imply).

2. A ramp (Kilometer long) to hoist 2-40 ton rocks ? How stupid ! Elephants pushing 40tons up a ramp ? ha ha ha...

3. A Kshatriya's KARMA is to fight , King = Kshatriya. By doing one's KARMA you don't get bad-reincarnation. Temple building not necessary for that.

[archideepi]

The visulas of the coloured gopurams at the begining of the video is of the Meenakshi Temple at Madurai which was buit by The Pandyas and later enlarged by The Nayaks.The Tanjore temple was buit by Raja Raja Cholan

[ronakvaland]

taj mahal was built on hindu land coak suckers!

[VedicHawaii]

Thank you for posting it by the way, it has a lot of good information and is very well done.

[VedicHawaii]

Oooh this was an interesting show, I have it! When watching it, we can use our own discretion because all humans are imperfect and even this revealing show has flaws. Like the Taj Mahal is NOT a Muslim tomb. IT IS THE TEMPLE OF AGRESHWAR MAHADEV! TEJO MAHALAYA! When you think of India, think of Tejo Mahalaya!

[Hosea22]

A pluralistic, multilingual, and multiethnic society, India is also home to a diversity of wildlife in a variety of protected habitats.

[Hosea22]

India is a republic consisting of 28 states and seven union territories with a parliamentary system of democracy. It has the world's twelfth largest economy at market exchange rates and the fourth largest in purchasing power. Economic reforms have transformed it into the second fastest growing large economy; however, it still suffers from high levels of poverty, illiteracy, and malnutrition.

[Hosea22]

Gradually annexed by the British East India Company from the early eighteenth century and colonised by the United Kingdom from the mid-nineteenth century, India became an independent nation in 1947 after a struggle for independence that was marked by widespread nonviolent resistance.

[Hosea22]

Home to the Indus Valley Civilization and a region of historic trade routes and vast empires, the Indian subcontinent was identified with its commercial and cultural wealth for much of its long history. Four major world religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism originated there, while Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam arrived in the first millennium CE and shaped the region's diverse culture.

[Hosea22]

India is in the vicinity of Sri Lanka, the Maldives, and Indonesia in the Indian Ocean.

[Hosea22]

India, officially the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by geographical area, the second-most populous country, and the largest democracy in the world. Bounded by the Indian Ocean on the south, the Arabian Sea on the west, and the Bay of Bengal on the east, India has a coastline of 7,517 kilometers (4,671 mi). It is bordered by Pakistan to the west; China, Nepal, and Bhutan to the north-east; and Bangladesh and Myanmar to the east.

[deepthishan]

taj mahal=tejo mahalaya (shiva temple!!!!!!!!)

damn muslims raided and converted it into a GRAVE

[G00KEATER]

Shut the fuck up with that Taj Mahal being a Hindu temple bullshit.

I'll tell you what it is: It's a disgusting sulla monument, which looks NOTHING like any Hindu temple, or any Hindu architecture. It's a disgusting piece of shit, with Urdu piss written on it. It never was Hindu, and never will be.

[G00KEATER]

You know, that stupid, embarrassment piece of shit PN Oak made up this whole Tejo Mahayala bullshit argument. The same retard claimed that Iran was once Hindu, and that Rome, which used to be called as "Roma" was named after Lord Rama.

That sort of non-sense is insulting, and hurts Hindutva if anything. It makes us look like a bunch of conspiracy theory nut jobs.

[URbloodMYfist]

what if the taj mahal was infact the tample to shiva made by king jai singh the powersful hindu ruler..then the muslims took it changed it into a tomb...There are so many facts proving that the tomb is infact a hindu temple..the age of the stone, a script detailing the transfer of power of the tejo mahayala to muslims......Imagine that the great taj mahal was actally built by hindus a beaituul temple in all white dedicated to shiva.I belive it was a shiva temple...the hindus wher very advaced,

[nimbarkadasa]

Trust these sorts of documentaries to make out like Indians are like tribals worshipping Gods in their Shrines filled with phallic symbols. It actually goes to show the stupidity of the documentarians who do not bother to understand the context in which the deities are worshipped. Hindus had monotheistic religions (Vaisnavism and Saivism) before even the Jews became so. These documentaires only want to sell themselves by using 'Pagan' terminology to fantasize about India. Grow Up.

[mrdhakafun]

i totally agree with  n33rav. gr8 job done

[kmanga2001]

wot city is it in

[upisrael45]

A Shiva lingam is not a phallus (Penis). Just because it is shaped like one doesn't mean it is. A shiva lingam represents Shiva and not his male anatomy.

[CelestialKindred]

If Scripture of Hinduism is written in Sanskrit and other Aryan languages, how do people of South India accept this religion?

[n33rav]

bcoz..these scriptures' knowledge were oraly passed for long time before its writen..and that time there were no conflicts..british created this aryan & dravid conflict to weaken indian strength

[nbm34]

This phallic worship. is on parallel to the Egyptian version of worshiping the GODS penis. This created life an was a parody to human events for creating life etc. It does not predate the earlier worship of the womans sexual organs, which goes back even earlier in time. As the males began to dominate society in the age of temples. These sexual based religions became more sophisticated as they became involved in the agricultural cycles and birth of livestock.etc.

[anant14]

Vedas (Most Ancient scriptures) are in "chanted" in Sanskrit....Most of the sages of the Vedas are themselves believed to be from South India according to Hindu religion....

There are also scriptures in all Indian languages...(which are also considered authoritative)..Ex: "Thirumanthiram" in Tamil..(foundational text of Shaivism)

[vvijayuk2000]

@CelestialKindred Dravidian and Aryan are terms that the British coined to differentiate the people in India. There was only one type of people in India. The British knew nothing of this and differentiated us. Heard of the term divide and rule used by the british. Lord Siva has temples in temple in south as much as there are in the Himalayas.

[tigersoup]

@CelestialKindred in HInduism there is freedom of religion... thats why you have so many religion living in harmony... unlike christians who convert ppl on the basis of hatred towards other religion!

[shamkishore]

@CelestialKindred

there is nothing called aryan or dravidian..

MAX muller is an idiot..

[frankalbignale]

Rajaraja Cholan, the Great Chola king built The Bragatheeswarar (Peruvudaiyar) Temple, also known as Big Temple. "In the twenty-fifth year of Rajaraja Cholan (A.D 1009-10) on the 257th day of the year the king handed over the copper pot for the finial at the top of the Vimana". It weighed about 235 lbs., and was overlaid with gold plate of the weight of 292.5 Kalanju or nearly 35 lbs. Troy.

[krenim786]

pakistan is an illegitimate state!the area which is now pakistan has always been ruled from outside its current territory in all of recorded history even in muslim times.

[n33rav]

i love to learn about ancient civilisations like india's , greeting from Egypt the home of world civilisations

[jayrc11123]

bebo9103...it's a misconstrued believe that Egypt is the cradle of civilization. You have to dive deep into India before concluding, otherwise on the periphery you would be missing the truth...

[livingmylife3006]

Finally, we Westerners can get a glimpse into a world outside of the "Abrahamic" faiths (Judaism, Christianity & Islam). Hopefully, as India grows, we can learn and borrow from Hinduism as well.

[mail438495]

WOW!!! GR8!!!!
