@MuslimRajputani They were a Hindu civilisation. Lots of Pasupati seals and Agni kundams were found. Think about that

"Mullaivasal" as R. Krishnamurthy Sastrigal one of the greatest scholars of the Vedas, Vedanta, and Sanskrit of our times and former Principal of the Madras Sanskrit College, who was honoured by with titles such as ‘Veda Bhashya Ratnam’ from Kanchi Mahaswami worshipped as Walking Divinity, with the ‘Rishi Samman’ by the President of India, with titles including ‘Advaita Siddhi Ratnakaram’ and ‘Vedanta Vibhushanam’ attained Sadgati Yesterday

Born in 1944 into a family of traditional Vedic scholars in Mullaivasal village, Thanjavur district he underwent traditional Vedic studies under his father and subsequently studied Mimamsa and Vedanta Shastras under accomplished teachers. He earned a doctorate in Indian Philosophy from the University of Madras with a thesis titled ‘Ishtasiddhi Vivaranam’. He founded the ‘Brahma Vidya Bhavan’ to impart Vedanta education in the traditional manner; there, he taught Vedanta Shastras to around 15 students and dedicated himself to moulding them into accomplished scholars of Advaita Vedanta. He also served as the Managing Trustee of the Mullaivasal Heritage Trust, established in 2000 to preserve and propagate Indian knowledge systems, culture, and traditions.

I came into his tutelage in 1980s. I said I know very little Samskrit, he introduced me to Samskrit LKG, and began teaching me Gita Bhashya of Adisankara! Being caught in various battles of Indian Express with the Rajiv Govt arrests and persecution I was an irregular student under him. But the fire he lit in me to pursue Vedic studies from the perspectives of science, polity sociology, history continued. I used to meet him to take his guidance.

He taught me about the concepts Rashtra, Rajya, Rajya, Raja and Jana in Rig Veda. These concepts were known but he told me something stunning. He said that the Rig Veda says that people should adhere to the interests of Rashtra, there should be no mutual conflicts between the Rashtra and people, the latter should underplay itself and Rashtra should shape the people to do that. This showed that there was a highly evolved polity. This made me distrust the historic view that Vedic people were patoralists who evolved from Hunter gatherers. He gave a note in his own handwriting which is below

I will narrate in the next how the fire he lit in me began shaping my own studies in the last 3 decades as I heavily invested in the study of Swadeshi approach to our overall develpment.

@Qais_99k2 Pakistan doesn’t know civilisation even if it bites its ass. They have nothing to do with it. It is a Hindu civilisation

[Ramesh Mahalingam @RameshMahaling6]

@Pakforever9 Stop calling it Pakistan. It didn’t exist then

[Ramesh Mahalingam @RameshMahaling6]

@EYounaan32770 It had been. It is Sanskrit And they were Hindus

[Ramesh Mahalingam @RameshMahaling6]

@EYounaan32770 Are you taking credit for a Hindu civilisation? What a dodo

[Ramesh Mahalingam @RameshMahaling6]

@EYounaan32770 There was no Pakistan then. If there was nothing worthwhile would have been developed
