<strong>H<strong>in</strong>duism</strong>: <strong>What</strong> <strong>Really</strong> Happened <strong>in</strong> <strong>India</strong> – M. M. N<strong>in</strong>an<br />

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to general <strong>India</strong>n legend, the Aryans arrived <strong>in</strong> north <strong>India</strong><br />

somewhere from Iran and southern Russia at around 1500 BC. Before the<br />

Aryans, the Dravidian people resided <strong>in</strong> <strong>India</strong>. The Aryans disregarded the<br />

local cultures. They began conquer<strong>in</strong>g and tak<strong>in</strong>g control over regions <strong>in</strong> north<br />

<strong>India</strong> and at the same time pushed the local people southwards or towards the<br />

jungles and mounta<strong>in</strong>s <strong>in</strong> north <strong>India</strong>. Accord<strong>in</strong>g to this historical fact the<br />

general division of <strong>India</strong>n society is made. North <strong>India</strong>ns are Aryans and south<br />

<strong>India</strong>ns are Dravidians. But this division isn’t proper because of many reasons.<br />

Many <strong>India</strong>ns immigrated from one part of <strong>India</strong> to other parts of <strong>India</strong> and not<br />

all local people of north <strong>India</strong> were pushed southwards by the Aryans. Some<br />

stayed and served the Aryans and others moved to live <strong>in</strong> the forests and the<br />

jungles of north <strong>India</strong>. Before the arrival of the Aryans there were also other<br />

communities <strong>in</strong> <strong>India</strong> like S<strong>in</strong>o-Mongoloids and Austroloids. There were also<br />

other foreign immigrations and <strong>in</strong>vaders who arrived <strong>in</strong> <strong>India</strong>, from time to<br />

time.<br />
