Some Vedic families began initiating young boys at 8 years old, studying heroic poetry about past ancestors and practicing their hunting and fighting skills. At 16, they were initiated into a warrior band during the winter solstice ritual (the Ekāstakā), during which the boys went into an ecstatic state, then ritually died to be reborn as dogs of war.After their leader was determined by a dice game, the initiated youths were cast away in the wild for four years to live as dogs, stealing animals, women, goods and territory, until the summer solstice ended the raiding season.The young warriors then returned to their forest residence where they held a Vrātyastoma sacrifice to thank the gods for their success.At the end the four-year initiation,a final Vrātyastoma sacrifice was performed to transform the dog-warrior into a responsible adult man. Then, the newly-initiated males destroyed their old clothes to become human once again, ready to return to their family and to live by the rules of their host community.

A strange passage I find in the Geeta is when Krishna tells arjuna, “I passed this yoga to vivasvan, who gave it to manu who gave it to ikshavaku, but later it was lost…”(4.1-4) most people interpret it as a philosophical inquiry about the Eternal nature of Godhood. But I imagine it as more an echo of an ancestral way of life of our hunter gatherer ancestors. In the long bygone era when they lived free and wide in our blue planet and in the moment with no attachments to carnal pleasures of worries about "past" or "future" For the Vedic society transferring from a pastoral / hunter society to a more agricultural , this must have been a huge change. And it's possible the vedic people were expressing this change right here through the figure of Shree Krishna. As arjun himself says, how are you present now but taught it to vivasvan who lived long ago, it is possible this was more an expression of bewildremnt at some individual still practicing such a life in a world where it was long forgotten. The theme of Geeta fits very well with the ancestral lives of our ancestors whether with no fear of death or emphasis on "work" rather than "worry". What do you think anon? Should the geeta be read as such a book?

Jewish tradition says that God has a covenant with all people, and he has sent a prophet to every type of people , and he has permitted to some that which he denied to others. Every mainstream religion but Hinduism has a central Prophetic figure. Even China has confucius. All the doomed people- African folk religion, Hindus, Aboriginals- have no prophet. We are the forsaken.

>I will now describe some of the features of this age found in an ancient Hindu text, the Vişṇu Purāṇa, I will put in brackets what I consider to be the contemporary applications. >Outcastes and barbarians will be masters of the banks of the Indus, Darvika, the Chandrabhaga and Kashmir. These will all be contemporary rulers [of this age] reigning over the earth: kings [rulers] of violent temper . . . They will seize upon the property of their subjects; they will be of limited power and will for the most part rapidly rise and fall; their lives will be short, their desires insatiable, and they will display but little piety. The people of various countries intermingling with them will follow their example. . . . The prevailing caste will be the Shudra. . . Vaisyas will abandon agriculture and commerce and gain a livelihood by servitude or the exercise of mechanical arts [proletarization and industrialization] . . . Kshyatrias instead of protecting will plunder their subjects: and under the pretext of levying customs will rob merchants of their property [crisis of capitalism and of private property; socialization, nationalization, and communism] . . . Wealth [inner] and piety [following one’s dharma] will decrease day by day until the whole world will be wholly depraved. Then property alone will confer rank [the quantity of dollars—economic classes]; wealth [material] will be the only source of devotion; passion will be the sole bond of union between the sexes; falsehood will be the only means of success in litigation. . . .Earth will be venerated but for its mineral treasures [unscrupulous exploitation of the soil, demise of the cult of the earth] . . .BrahmanicaI clothes will constitute a Brahman . . . weakness will be the cause of dependence [cowardice, death of fides and honor in the modern political forms] . . . simple ablution [devoid of the power of the true rite] will be purification [can there really be anything more in the alleged salvation procured by the Christian sacraments?] . . . In the Kali age men corrupted by unbelievers . . . will say: “Of what authority are the Vedas? what are gods or Brāhmans? . . . ” Observance of caste, order and institutes [traditional] will not prevail in the Kali age. Marriages in this age will not be comformable to the ritual, nor will the rules that connect the spiritual preceptor and his disciple be in force. . . . A regenerated man will be initiated in any way whatever [democracy applied to the spiritual plane] and such acts of penance as may be performed will be unattended by any results [this refers to a “humanistic” and conformist religion] . . . all orders of life will be common alike to all persons . . . . He who gives away much money will be the master of men and family descent will no longer be a title of supremacy [the end of traditional nobility, advent of bourgeoisie, plutocracy]. . . . Men will fix their desires upon riches, even though dishonestly acquired. . . . Men of all degrees will conceit themselves to be equal with Brahmans [the prevarication and presumption of the intellectuals and modern culture]. . . The people will be almost always in dread of dearth and apprehensive of scarcity; and will hence ever be watching the appearances of the sky [the meaning of the religious and superstitious residues typical of modern masses]. . . . The women will pay no attention to the commands of their hus- bands or parents. . . . They will be selfish, abject and slatternly; they will be scolds and liars; they will be indecent and immoral in their conduct and will ever attach themselves to dissolute men.... Men having deviated into heresy, iniquity will flourish, and the duration of life will therefore decrease.

why spirituality doesn't work for some people

Why Spirituality "Doesn't Work" for Many People These days many people are T turning to spirituality, but after some time, they all complain that it is not working. Why is that? One of the main reasons is that they don't recognise that spirituality is a lifestyle-it's a way of living. You can't just do some meditation or some newage practice for half an hour, morning and evening, live a hedonistic lifestyle, and expect spiritual growth. Just like you can't go to the gym three days a week and expect good health and a fit body when you're not getting enough sleep or rest, your lifestyle is sedentary, and the diet involves a lot of junk food, so, too, with spirituality. If you are not living with some ethical values and psychological growth, how do you expect the spiritual practices to work? The Foundation: Psychological Maturity Psychological growth is important. If I have lost someone near and dear and I have not managed that grief, I can't expect a spiritual practice to heal me from that grief. The spiritual practice will work only if I have done some basic psychological work. Psychological maturity is the basis for spiritual growth. So if the foundation is weak, the edifice of spirituality cannot be built over time. Most people have grief, guilt, stress or some emotional issues, and they expect some practice to take care of it. Some temporary stress relief is possible. But if 18 hours a day you are stressed out, how do you expect a half-hour practice to completely remove the effects of those 18 hours? One has to align with the right attitudes and a moderate lifestyle to handle stress on a regular basis. Only then will the spiritual practices work. To sum it up: spiritual growth can happen only if I am a mature being. That is, if I can think clearly, feel deeply, and act decisively. This competency and growth can be enhanced with my spiritual disciplines and practices. But if the base is not there, no amount of practice will work. https://t.me/sanataneee

Something interesting I read today Hinduism and Abrahamism are the only few religious branches in the world where the original creator gods are respected and not overthrown by the newer gods. And only ones where the by the end times, the gods will return and bring back order online the Ragnarok like events where the current gods will die. This might explain why they might be the only theistic religions that survived to modernity(inb4 muh shintoism, no most japs are just larping, they don't unironically believe in their like Hindus or Muslims or Christians and talking about real Christians like the ricebag (bch) next door you know who jump in to water and think they'll be healed of cancer and not the larpers on /pol/ who just want to larp Christian so their women will stop being whores), as the old isn't seen as inherently old, decaying and outdated. These believe in timeless eternal divinity instead of classical Roman or Norse Paganism or Shintoism. I know many here hate Abrahamoids but what do you think about this thought?

>Dyaus (Sanskrit: द्यौष्, IAST: Dyáuṣ) or Dyauspitr (Sanskrit: द्यौष्पितृ, IAST: Dyáuṣpitṛ́) is the Rigvedic sky deity. His consort is Prthvi, the earth goddess, and together they are the archetypal parents in the Rigveda >Dyauṣ stems from Proto-Indo-Iranian *dyā́wš, from the Proto-Indo-European (PIE) daylight-sky god *Dyēus, and is cognate with the Greek Διας - Zeus Patēr, Illyrian Dei-pátrous, or Latin Jupiter (from Old Latin Dies piter Djous patēr), stemming from the PIE Dyḗus ph2tḗr ("Daylight-sky Father") >The noun dyaús (when used without the pitṛ́ 'father') refers to the daylight sky, and occurs frequently in the Rigveda, as an entity. The sky in Vedic writing was described as rising in three tiers, avamá, madhyamá, and uttamá or tṛtī́ya >Dyáuṣ Pitṛ́ appears in hymns with Prithvi Mata 'Mother Earth' in the ancient Vedic scriptures of Hinduism >In the Ṛg·veda, Dyáuṣ Pitṛ́ appears in verses 1.89.4, 1.90.7, 1.164.33, 1.191.6, 4.1.10. and 4.17.4. He is also referred to under different theonyms: Dyavaprithvi, for example, is a dvandva compound combining 'heaven' and 'earth' as Dyauṣ and Prithvi >Dyauṣ's most defining trait is his paternal role. His daughter, Uṣas, personifies dawn. The gods, especially Sūrya, are stated to be the children of Dyauṣ and Prithvi. Dyauṣ's other sons include Agni, Parjanya, the Ādityas, the Maruts, and the Angirases. The Ashvins are called "divó nápāt", meaning offspring/progeny/grandsons of Dyauṣ. Dyauṣ is often visualized as a roaring animal, often a bull, who fertilizes the earth

Hercules: The Lost Jat of Antiquity?

Anonymous

loc-IN

mwrqe5ny5pk.jpg

For centuries, the myth of Hercules—the indomitable Greek demigod—has been a cornerstone of classical Western mythology. Known for his immense strength, his twelve labours, and his ultimate ascension to divine status, Hercules has been immortalized in art, literature, and folklore across civilizations. However, a groundbreaking reassessment by linguists and historians suggests that Hercules, far from being merely a Greek hero, may have his origins in the martial traditions of the Jats of India. Recent studies in comparative linguistics, Indo-European migrations, and ancient historiography reveal striking similarities between Hercules and figures from Jat folklore and history. The warrior ethos, the indomitable spirit, and the near-mythical strength attributed to Hercules resonate with the ancestral characteristics of the Jats, a traditionally martial community spread across northern India. Linguistic and Historical Parallels Linguists studying Indo-European philology have noted phonetic similarities between ‘Hercules’ and names prevalent among ancient Indian warriors. Some scholars argue that Hercules could be an Indo-Greek adaptation of ‘Hari-Kula,’ meaning ‘the lineage of Hari (Vishnu),’ a phrase often associated with Kshatriya clans, including the Jats. Ancient Greek records also offer intriguing clues. The Greek historian Arrian, in his Indica, mentions a powerful warrior race in the Indian subcontinent whom Alexander the Great found particularly formidable. These warriors bore striking resemblances to the mythologized Hercules—massively built, fearless, and known for their wrestling prowess. Similarly, Megasthenes, the Greek ambassador to Chandragupta Maurya’s court, wrote of an Indian Hercules-like figure, linking him to the region corresponding to modern-day Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh—strongholds of Jat heritage. The Jats: Heirs to Hercules' Legacy? The Jats have long been recognized for their warrior traditions, their legendary resistance against invaders, and their self-sufficient, agrarian yet fiercely independent culture. Could it be that Hercules was not a Greek invention but rather an adaptation of an older, Indic warrior archetype? This theory gains credibility when one examines the broader pattern of Indo-Greek cultural synthesis. The post-Alexandrian era saw extensive interactions between the Greeks and Indian warrior communities, particularly in regions where Indo-Greek kingdoms flourished. It is possible that stories of Jat warriors, passed down through generations, were absorbed into Greek myth, transforming an Indic strongman into the demigod Hercules. Revisiting Ancient Identities The implications of such a revelation are profound. It challenges the conventional Eurocentric framing of mythology and compels scholars to acknowledge the fluid exchange of legends across cultures. If Hercules indeed has Jat origins, it reaffirms India’s role in shaping global mythological traditions and underscores the enduring martial legacy of the Jats. Of course, much work remains to be done. Historical reconstructions require rigorous evidence, and while linguistic and anecdotal correlations are compelling, more archaeological and textual research is necessary. Yet, this emerging perspective invites us to look beyond simplistic historical binaries and embrace a more interconnected view of our shared past. Could it be, then, that Hercules—the lion-hearted, the unconquerable—was not merely a Greek hero but a lost son of Bharatvarsha? The evidence, though still debated, suggests that the tale of Hercules may have begun long before Greece, in the rugged heartlands of northern India, where warriors still uphold his legacy.
