About the Book


The misrepresentations about the identity of the Rigveda Aryan people , and the western propagated theories of the Aryan invasion of or immigration to India, have been the subject of much discussion by both national and international thinkers in the recent years. The Subject is serious and deeply linked to identity, and also concerns what we teach through our History Text books.

This Gyan – Samhita’ brings to you the papers presented by a galaxy of distinguished national and international scholars., who participated at the International conference to discuss various aspect like the origin and identity of the Arayans, the Indus- Sarasvati Civilization, and the Archaeological findings that demolish the theory of Aryan Invasion of India.

Thus, a spatial chronological study of the Rigveda data on the hand and of the rigveda data on the one hand and of the Indus –sarasvati civilization on the other, to find linkages between the R?igveda and the Indus – Saraswati civilization was taken up. There was general consensus, and it was firmly established that the Rigveda people were indigenous and neither ‘ invades’ nor ‘ immigrants’.

The Result of the textual researches and archaeological discovers have not yet reached the International forum, much less the text books. It was felt that the time is ripe to hold an International Seminar on the subject, so that the new Knowledge is duly disseminated not only within India but also beyond its frontiers . the Knowledge sharing by a large number of world renowned Archaeologists, Historians, Philosophers Ideologists make this a very valuable book of reference and study.
