India - identity crisis of 1.4 billion people

[ProudThamizhan]

According to Indians, 'India' produced many of 'greetest anshiant saientisht, phhilujuphhar and mathamatishan evar noun to hoomankind.'

These great people must have left lots of written work with the name of their country mentioned somewhere. Don't tell me they didn't know their country's name.

So PDF 'Indians', please quote just one line from their* written work, that correctly identifies their country as India/Hind/Sindh. Don't say India didn't exist back then, India is anshiant kantry it was always there.

* the author must have been resident of the territory that constitutes modern day India (excluding Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, IoK)

why excluding Punjab Haryana Delhi, parts of Kashmir occupied by Pakistan, or for that matter any and all parts of what is currently called Pakistan and Bangladesh? none of these areas can be excluded

Unofficially, name is india...

Officially it should be Hindustan [India/Hind]. Lions emblem belongs to Hindustan.

"The country that lies north of the ocean and south of the snowy mountains is Bharata, there dwell the descendants of Bharat".

--Vishnu Purana (400BCE)

that too from Puranas.

We don't need your validation.

You would have to fight Indians and Bharatis for it.

We don't need your validation.

Without outside validation, there won't be India, Bharat nor Hindustan.

Its an obvious copy of Rig Veda, renaming the land Bharat in 400 BCE. Originally the land was called Aryavarta, named after Aryans by Aryans. Brahmin were Aryan origin whose language was Sanskrit. They were not the ruling caste. Ram was ruling caste, not Brahmin and not Aryan origin. Just say I am far ahead of the curve.

@Maira La

Puranas are bedtime stories for sangh adults, consumed wide-eyed until the eyes get droopy with bhang intake....

This the literal definition of a "purana" per Wiki.

"Purana (/ p ʊ ˈ r ɑː n ə /; Sanskrit: पुराण, purāṇa; literally meaning "ancient, old") is a vast genre of Indian literature about a wide range of topics, particularly about legends and other traditional lore. The Puranas are known for the intricate layers of symbolism depicted within their stories."

So yes - bedtime stories.

This tradition of turning Puranas into "fact" and turning the heroes of these Purana stories into "actual historical personalities" started during the period of Hindu revivalists in Bengal during the mid to late 1800s (under guidance of British intellectuals who hated Muslim rule in India and wanted to finish it off for good).

These British bootlicker Hindu revivalists in Bengal were the progenitors of today's Hindutva philosophy.

They were worried that Hindus would remain cowards and wanted to corral the extremist Hindutva philosophies into a political force, which is what we see with RSS and Shivsena activities today.

"Hindustan" is word of Persian origin, not Sanskrit.
While "Bharat" originated from Sanskrit.

achha hai...enjoy the burn....

UP wallah ka payer tastes good I guess.

Talking and trying so hard to prove oneself as a second class RSS citizen by talking Hinglish and Hindi.

And trying so hard to forget Bengali.

Pa chaten, chaita jan. Bhalo.

That is an assumption. Punjab is of Persian origin. My ancestral identity is Bihari and Hindustani and we have nothing to do with Persians or Bharatis.

Bihar is early Vedic word, not necessarily Sanskrit origin. Bharatis are later Scythians, cousins of Pakistani and Iranian Scythians.

 

[Novus ordu seclorum]

approximately how old is this book ?

It took several centuries starting around 1500 BCE, completed around 1200 BCE, which is the early Vedic period. It was oral tradition to begin with. There were later additions to Veda which continued for about a thousand years.

A lot of claims by Bharatis such as 3000 BCE date can be easily debunked. Bharati is originally a Scythian group who began arriving in India around the middle of the first millineun BCE.
