BRAHMAN: THE DISCOVERY OF THE GOD OF ABRAHAM: M. M. NINAN
No iridium anomaly , the characteristic of all impacts from the mammoth K/T Chiczulub crater [
ALvarez ] to the Sudbury intrusive, has been found in the Indus valley of the required age.
No shocked glasses , or tektites with the requisite shock deformation features, have been found
anywhere near the Indus valley.
Thus, although a cometary candidate for the extinction has been found in Comet Enke [ ], this is a
far-fetched theory, to say the least. The destruciton of several civilizations simultaneously requires a
global catastrophe. But some civilizations, eg. in Central and South AMerica, and China, survived
the 1500 BC discontinuity. Asteroidal impacts tend to leave larger craters and more iridium, so the
arguments against this variant of impact apply more forcefully.
Flooding . Undisputed evidence of flooding has been found in the form of silt deposits and barrage
system erected as a defensive measure. Flooding thyus remained a serious candidate until it was
pointed out that several Vedic scholars had realized that the Aryans had destroyed the irrigation
and dam system of the Indus. Thus flooding is a natural consequence of Aryan invasion and not an
independant mechanism.
Internal Decline
1. To suppose that, after two millenia of stability some internal revolt was the cause behind the
downfall is stretching the imagination.
2. No evidence has been found for this, and when indisputable evidence of violence perpetrated
with new weapons exists, it is disregarding evidence.
Other Opponents
Although the following may seem rather harsh, yet it is necessary to expose the real designs of
some of the opponents of one of the most well-established theories of all time.
The opponents of the concept of Aryan invasion fall into 3 categories:
Aryan Hindu Fanatics
Neo-Nazis
These mostly have ulterior motives. The former oppose any vilification of their "gods" who are
implicated in the worst massacres and atrocities recorded in history. They wish to see the Vedas, in
acutality the songs of promitive cow-herds, as the repository of all science. The latter do not want to
accept that their ancestors perpetrated such crimes. One religious fanatic who opposed the notion
of Aryan invasion during its infancy was Narendra Nath Datta, later known as Vivekananda. All he
could do was to vilify honest schloars:
" And what your European pandits say about the Aryan's sweeping from some foreign land,
snatching away the lands of the aboriginals and settling India by exterminating them, is all pure
nonsense, foolish talk. Strange, that our Indian scholars too say amen to them, and all these
monstrous lies are taught to our boys. This is very bad indeed.
In what Veda, in what Sukta, so you find that the Aryans came to India from a foreign country?
Where do you get the idea that they slaughtered the wild aborigines? What do you gain by talking
such nonsense?"
