<strong>Hinduism</strong>: What Really Happened in India – M. M. Ninan 133<br />

Notice in the following story, the mention of minute details and<br />

even the names slightly twisted and Indianized.<br />

In the eastern side of Pradan (Pradan means Main, Important, Capital of<br />

the country) city where there is a big God-given forest (Eden), which is<br />

16 square yojanas in size. The man named Adama (Adam) was staying<br />

there under a Papa-Vriksha or a sinful tree (Tree of the knowledge of<br />

Good and Evil) and was eager to see his wife Havyavati. (Hovah) The<br />

Kali purusha quickly came there assuming the form of a serpent.<br />

“Indriyani damithwa<br />

Yehyaathmadhyaana parayana:<br />

Thasmad Aadama naamaasou<br />

Pathnee Havyavathee smritha” ‘Prathisargaparvam’4:28<br />

Satan (Evil Person = Kali Prussia) - the association of Serpent as<br />

the Satan came much later in the first century after the advent of<br />

<strong>Christian</strong>ity. In the Bible it appears only in the book of Revelations.<br />

This association is prevalent in the Acta Thoma stories, which were<br />

written in the 4 th century.<br />

Gen 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field<br />

which Jehovah God had made<br />

He cheated them and they disobeyed Lord Vishnu (Yahweh is here<br />

identified with Vishnu). The husband ate the forbidden fruit of the sinful<br />

tree. They lived by eating air with the leaves called udumbara<br />

It is strange that when copying the story from the book of Genesis,<br />

even the fact that the generations after Adam until Noah were<br />

vegetarians was acknowledged. A detail worth noting.<br />

After they had sons and all of them became mlecchas. Adama's duration<br />

of life was nine hundred and thirty years.
