BRAHMAN: THE DISCOVERY OF THE GOD OF ABRAHAM: M. M. NINAN the animal and immolate it," among other duties.[citation needed] Each action was accompanied by supplicative or benedictive formulas (yajus), drawn from the yajurveda. Over time, the role of the adhvaryu grew in importance, and many verses of the ṛgveda were incorporated, either intact or adapted, into the texts of the yajurveda.[citation needed] The udgātṛ was a chanter of hymns set to melodies (sāman) drawn from the sāmaveda. This was a specialized role in the major soma sacrifices: a characteristic function of the udgātṛ was to sing hymns in praise of the invigorating properties of soma pavamāna, the freshly pressed juice of the soma plan We see that Brahmin was not one of the Aryan priest names. It appears in Rig Veda tenth Mandala which was added much later in history where a parallel with Avestan hierarchy is defined where we come across Brahmin as the head instead of the Athorman priest in Zorastrianism. “As compared with by far the largest part of the hymns of the Rigveda, the Purusha Sukta has every character of modernness both in its diction and ideas. I have already observed that the hymns which we find in this collection (Purusha Sukta) are of very different periods” — John Muir, “That the Purusha Sukta, considered as a hymn of the Rigveda, is among the latest portions of that collection, is clearly perceptible from its contents” — Albrecht Weber, Here is the Zorastrian hierarchy; "The dignity of the head in the human body is (allotted) to the profession of Athornan; of the hand, to the profession Arthestar; of the belly, to the profession of Vastariush; and of feet, to the profession of Hutokhsh: thus, it is symbolically shown, that in rank and dignity, the profession of Athornan is as the head of the world; the profession of Arthestar is as the hands of the world; the profession of Vastariush is as the belly of the world; and, the profession of Hutokhsh is as the feet of the world./ ( Denkard Bk.3-Chp.42) “When they divided Purusa how many portions did they make? What do they call his mouth, his arms? What do they call his thighs and feet? The <strong>Brahman</strong> was his mouth, of both his arms was the Rajanya made. His thighs became the Vaisya, from his feet the Sudra was produced” Rig Veda 10.90.11-12 53
BRAHMAN: THE DISCOVERY OF THE GOD OF ABRAHAM: M. M. NINAN CHAPTER V ARYAN ENTRY INTO INDIA The Proto-Indo-Iranians, from which the Indo-Aryans developed, are identified with the Sintashta culture (2100–1800 BCE), and the Andronovo culture, which flourished ca. 1800–1400 BCE in the steppes around the Aral sea, present-day Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. The proto- Indo-Iranians were influenced by the Bactria-Margiana Culture, south of the Andronovo culture, from which they borrowed their distinctive religious beliefs and practices. The Indo-Aryans split off around 1800-1600 BCE from the Iranians, whereafter the Indo-Aryans migrated into the Levant and north-western India. Migration for better life and improvement was and is going on from the beginning of human life - no in all life forms. Human migrations are described in the history and religion of world. Thus it is reflected also in the religious memory and hisory of every nation “We call these invaders the ‘Aryans’ from their own word Arya meaning of noble or free birth or origin (the term lives on today as ‘Iran’ and ‘Eire’ or Ireland). They spread West into Asia Minor (Hittites) and Southeastern Europe (Greeks), with the Romans, Celts, Germans and Slavs – also Aryan tribes – following up behind them in later waves. They spread South and Southeast into the Iranian plateau (Medes and Persians being later descendants of these original Aryans) and from there across the gap in the Hindu Kush mountains down into the Indus River basin – where they overran or at least replaced the Harappa society described above (had it already expired before their arrival?). It was around 1700 - 1500 BC that they made this grand move into India – although smaller Aryan raids into northwestern India may have been common well before then.” http://www.kingsacademy.com/mhodges/05_World-Cultures/02_Ancient- Civilization/02d_Ancient-India.htm 54
