Rig Veda

3 Abstract

The Rig Veda is a manuscript written in Sanskrit.”Keep fear away from me, Varuna, and hold fast to me, O emperor of Order.” This line tell you that someone believes that Varuna has the power to keep fear away from them, that Varuna is some type of protector.This line tells you that the Aryan worldview is thet there is something omniscent to them.Varuna and Indra seem to be contradictions. This belief is polytheist and very confusing.

The Brahimins are called the Rig Vedic people classified as the religious patriarch of all religious thought in India and the world. The term Aryan is applied to the thre so called forward castes in India-Brahimins, Kshadry as and Vaisyas.The minority has gained control of the religions ,political and economic power in India today. (The Rig Veda is considered very ancient and the foundation of all religious thought. Before the Vedic people came to this region, the India population the Dravidians, were considered uncivilized, who later became cultured and illuminated by the Vedic people. The Rig Veda called them savage barbarians.)1 A lot of historical error has been expressed about this Indus Valley civilization,1920 .The Dravidians were in fact highly cultured and had developed an advanced and sophisticated way of life.These people were involved in manipulating society for self gain. (The Brahmin ancestors, the Vedic people ,are the authors of caste systems with them at the top of the hierarchy)2 They used the caste system to cause division and conflict in society, and many innocent lives have been seriously hurt or killed, and certain people are living under the most oppressive circumstances.)(The vicious religious philosophy of the caste system is also referred to as brahminism.Brahminism is also practiced by Dravidians to oppress and manipulate fellow Dravidians! Brahminism is contrary to the Gospel since man is liberated ny Jesus Christ.)3 ( The religion and culture of India is highly misunderstood, and mission strategies are based on this misunderstanding.)4(Today missions strategies like the pople movement approach have ignorantly brought the caste system into the church and the caste system into the church and the church has become ineffective. The crucial thinking in this strategy is not to disturb the culture of thepeople involved in the movement of the church.

(However, the ridiculous nature of this thinking is best illustrated by a modern day example .Let’s say that there was a people movement amongst Nazis or the Klu Klux Klan(KKK), how would the church handle it? Would it cater to them by having a separate church so that they would feel comfortable? Would it wait 3 to 4 generations before addressing their racist attitude? By the way did not Hitler say he was a Christian?)5 ( In tracing the Brahmin ancestry, the best evidence seen thus far is their religious affinity to the Rig Veda. That is why they are often referred to as the Vedic people)6 (The earliest evidence of Vedic worship is seen in on a cuneiform tablet excavated at El- Amarna in Egypt. On a document from Bogazkoy in Anatolia (Asia Minor)7 (The tablet is Hittite cuneiform and written in the Akkadrian language, and is an adjunct to a treaty between the Hittite King Suppiluliuma and his son in laws the Mitannian King Kurtwaza, and it contains a long list of he gods of the peoples who were partners to it.)8 The tablet is dated around the 14th century B.C.(The gods ae invoked to witness the conclusion of the treaty and guarantee its observance.The gods of the Mitarrians are named in these forms;mi,itra, u-ru-ua-na, In-,da,-ra and Na-sc-at-ti-ia-an-na.It is evident that these names correspond to Mitra, Varanna, Indra, and Nasatuau of the Vedic pantheon.} The following curse is pronounced against the Mitanannians:”If you Kurtiwaza, theprince , and the sons of Harri county do not fulfil the words of the treaty, may the gods, the lords, of earth, blot you out, you and the Hurri men together with your country, with your wives and all that you have.)9Vedic worship, or the vedic religion is confusing, Varuna, a god of the sky, of rain, and thecelestial ocean as well as a god of law and the underworld, Asura, the Rig Veda Chief of the gods, Mitra, god of the oath but Varuna is supposed to be Omniscient, however Indra, is supposed to be 6 times more prominent than Varuna. How can you be omniscent if someone ese is 6 times more powerful or prominent?The vedic text consist of Vedas proper or samhitas three (trays) yajna-sacrifice. Its all very confusing to me.

Rig Veda

My conclusion is that these people are truly confused themselves and do not know what a true diety is. Their diety is a caste system even in the belief of their many gods they have a caste system.They are contradictory to say the least.
