Aryan Theory-Myth or Truth

Abstract

The time of human existence on earth is unknown. There are many theories behind this and religious books also highlight some information about this. The Sanatana dharma speaks about Manu; the first human on earth and others are his offspring, hence humans’ are called Manava. The Christian’s holy book Bible also gives information regarding this and Muslim’s Quran as well. There is no evidence to believe that all are true. This information might be true or illusion but proper investigation or historical research reveals the truth. As the human existence is suspicious so the date and time of some theories and civilization also exist doubtful even today. One such theory is ‘Aryan Invasion Theory’. Aryan invasion theory is an old theory where a community of Aryans invaded India from south Asia and sent the inhabitants to south part of India. Many years the theory stood as rock solid to make people believe but as technology improved and archeologists were hungry to know the truth, the theory got shaken. V S Shinde, an archeologist at Deccan College Post-Graduate and Research Institute in Pune says-
"The ancient DNA results completely reject the theory of Steppe pastoral or ancient Iranian farmers as a source of ancestry to the Harappan population. It demolishes the hypothesis about mass human migration during Harappan time from outside south Asia or before." The study says that the western scholars coined this theory to build a rift between the Indians. Then the questions arise, how Indian Gods’ idols are found in middle Asia and some other parts of the world? To unearth this truth we get some clues in the Vedas. One such clue is being revealed in this paper.
A Rigveda mantra which details about the conversation between Rivers and Vishvamitra also proves this true. Rigveda’s third Astaka’s third chapter explains some important information about a conversation of sage Vishvamitra and Rivers. This Mantra reveals some interesting fact of Aryan theory.
