RESURRECTION AND REINCARNATION M.M.NINAN from the Vedic religion will not be a surprise. The development of Hinduism was brought about by the dominating philosophies • of Greece under the invasion of Alexander • of Apostle Thomas and his ministry which covered all India from Taxila in the North to Kerala in the South • of the Gnostic ministry especially of Manicaen which was centered in South India. • of non-vedic religions of India which were concretized into Hindu Religion. William Jones (1746-1794) came to India as a judge of the Supreme Court at Calcutta. He pioneered Sanskrit studies. He noted that "the analogies between Greek Pythagorean philosophy and the Sankhya school, are very obvious." ( Arise O' India - By Francois Gautier , Har-Anand Publications 2000 ). Alexander was a student of Aristotle. Aristotle tutored Alexander until age 16. Aristotle refers to Pythagoreanism as the philosophy of the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras (ca. 570 – ca. 490 BCE), which prescribed a highly structured way of life and espoused the doctrine of metempsychosis - 'transmigration of the soul after death into a new body, human or animal . All the most prominent Greek philosophers including Parmenides, Plato and Aristotle were Pythagoreans. It is therefore reasonable to assume that Alexander was well versed in these doctrine and brought these into India and found a fertile ground following Buddhism and Jainism by revision. Again we know for certain that he was an ardent anti-Vedic who massacred thousands of Vedic priests both in India and in Iran. Apostle Thomas caused a major shift in the concept of a supreme God who is the creator and the concept of Logos the power behind the creation. These were rendered in culturally relevant forms to form extensive religious groups following the Saivite, Vaishnavite, etc. 67
RESURRECTION AND REINCARNATION M.M.NINAN However soon on its heels came the Gnostics from Syria. It was this sects under the leadership of Iranian (Persian) prophet Mani (216-274 CE] that really produced the start of modern Hinduism as an independent religion of India, a syncretism Zoroastrianism, Buddhism,. Orphism. Neoplatonism. and Christrianity. The theory of reincarnation as transmigration with interposed heaven and hell was the creation of Mani - who is now the son of Siva himself - Subhra-Mani-an. Prophet Mani (216 – 276 AD)>> Subra-manian Even those will not explain Hinduism. It is a "mosaic of religion", formed by syncretic religions from most elementary superstitions and mythologies, from the 68
