🧵Some "great books" for H educational reading with some comments 1. Excerpts from the 4 shruti-s & their a~Nga-s (I know many would go apoplectic with this suggestion: I see your point) 2. vedA~Nga-jyotiSha with numerical examples& practical observations of the sky

and king someshvara chAlukya's 25. mAnasollAsa.
However, these texts need some editing

The ancient world, unlike many neo-occidentally conditioned folks, recognized that leadership of men was related to something special -- it could be seen as a the charisma seen only in a true leader. That's why we have approximately equivalent words: Skt: shrI; Iranic: Xvarena,
Turkic: kut, Mongolic: suu, Chinese: yun, Arabic: dawlat. That it cuts across religions and ethnicities in Eurasia indicates that it is something primal.Even the Austronesia Maoris had something called mana. At times of stress nation can only be led by men with that special thing
Despite the neo-occidental conditioning, one can see that the pull of this special charisma exists to date in the west. It is something an oligarchy deep state greatly fears for it would transfer the mandate from their shadow government to the "ekavIra". The word ekavIra is an
A new preprint on Indian genomics from Moorjani et al. Some figures and statements are a bit shoddy, but overall, it has good material.
1 notable result: only 22 out of 2126 from core Indian cline lack Aryan ancestry! They don't tell us which part of Indiabiorxiv.org/content/10.110…
or which jAti-s these hail from. That is only ~1% of the core India cline population has a purely pre-Aryan heritage -- this illustrates the sheer magnitude of the genetic impact of the AI -- something many of us have known for more than 2 decades. Yet is something the India
pseudointellectuals constantly deny till they go blue in the face. It is hard to see a nation so disconnected from its ethnogenesis which stares at its face. The authors present evidence that some Sarazm individuals are closest to the purely "Iranian farmer" type ancestry found
These are both good examples. Even if a R^iShi names himself directly, he might still use an encoding for his name. Brief thread with e.g.s:
vishvAmitra (take this with the mitra dominance of v'mitra):
*mitrAya* pa~ncha yemire janA abhiShTishavase | sa devAn *vishvAn* bibharti ||
Here vishvAmitra like the original Virgil example codes his name in reverse.
vAmadeva gautama: *vAmaM-vAmaM* ta Adure *devo* dadAtv aryamA |
*vAmam* pUShA *vAmam* bhago *vAmaM devaH* karULatI ||
This is the most dense patch of the word vAma in the whole RV.
hiraNyastUpa A~ngirasa: See the 4th e.g., in this analysis: he overuses the word "hiraNya" signaling his own name (e.g. RV 1.35) and weaves it into the epithets of the god savitR^i who has special connection with golden. manasataramgini.wordpress.com/2008/07/16/sha…
I wish I could answer this with numbers, but I don't have the time to dig up such. Hence, this answer is based on feelings. I feel approximately the same. In the thread below I'll elaborate a bit: It might arouse disagreement in some readers. In 1989 we had the disastrous ascent
of VP Singh, the Mandal affair, then by 1991 the collapse of our main ally the Sov-rUs empire, the assassination of Rajiv, the unstable brief rule of Chandrashekhar. Coeval with this the mlechCha-marUnmatta attempt to grab our head -- Kashmir was initiated with full violence.
All these left us with a feeling of deep instablity: would we be able to withstand mlechCha-marUnmattAbhisaMdhi without the Soviets in freefall. Then came PVNR, who definitely made several positive admin changes. Till then if you were in the middle middle class you could really
The structure of the mahAmlechChAnAm navyonmatta-gUDha-chakra has a complex structure that cannot be easily probed by the lay beholder. There is madhyama-prAkAra which is manned by ardhakR^iShna. Hence, those who probe a bit realize that it is not sana-piNDaka but end up thinking
that it is ardhrakR^iShNa who calls the shots. But one should not forget that before the Chalaprabandha to place piNDaka on the Asandi& they brought a relative unknown ardrakR^iShNa& put him on the ma~ncha. So he is not the real power -- it is those who put him there. Of course
he is a useful frontend for he is a veritable bodhisattva for the lay masses of left-liberals -- he is the rAma-rAja for them. But the power & handling behind the scenes is handled by the true gUDhachara-s. They have allies with grandiose ambitions like the sora-kula but they are
The rUs strategy is become clearer even as the pa~nchanetraka+vassals have tried to spread a smokescreen over it shouting from the rooftops that the dAnu-aparin-s will conquer Moscow🙂The battles of Bakhmut&the latest conquest of Maryinka were said to be clearly bruta fulmina
But if one cuts through the noise of the Occident's megaphone & delves into what some of their own analysts & what those not in Occidental control are saying, a different picture emerges. These two battles were primarily traps for the dAnu-aparin-s to exhaust their fighting males
Thus, even as the Occident ramps up the delivery of newly made artillery to their puppet, they would have been denuded of those who could actually use it best. Now, this could still unravel in a dangerous way because the Occident is perhaps even greater than the marUnmatta-s in
