Hinduism always was a unified whole as correctly identified by Anglos. as for boodism, it did take off in India and was peer reviewed out of the subcontinent slowly and methodically over centuries by the following hindu philosophers among many

[Ironwood🦝 @WerwulfFan]

This is also why Buddhism never really took off in India. It was simply seen as yet another spiritual system out of thousands of preexisting ones, and it only flourished in China because the emperors took a liking to it.

>Linguists knowing Dravidian languages have said the origin of viṣṇu is in the verb, viḷ- which forms the nouns, viṇṇu/viṇḍu/viṭṭu. It is viṇṇu > viṣṇu.

peak Dravidian scholarship. is there even one eg of tamil ṇṇ morphing into skt ṣṇ or the other way round?

For bricks, iṭu- verb from Dravidian gives rise to iṭṭi > iṣṭi.

There is another important example from Rgveda itself. Vedicists like Jan Gonda and others have explained that viṣṇu means solar deity, the sun's rays being talked about:

Trivikrama avatara in Puranic mythology develops in later centuries after a millennium or so. Similar to Shiva in Rgveda. He is not the Shiva of later periods. In Tamil, only Jains start using Siva first, and this happens much later than the Sangam period.

@0007ferrero >> This def makes sense to me for one reason. The other Steppe-Zagroasian deried Aryans (Medes, Avestans) in SCAsia do not use bricked altars like we do. Only Vedics with deep IVC base in Haryana first started doing this. So, makes perfect sense..

Several words from India spread to Iran and BMAC in the Post-Harappan period. One such word is iṣṭi (from Dravidian iṭṭi. Cf. For the production of the retroflex ṣ as in viṇṇu > viṣṇu, so also iṭṭi > iṣṭi. In Iran and BMAC, iṣṭi loses the retroflexion.

A friend asked about Tocharian word for brick. It is borrowed from Iran whic ultimately comes from IVC all the 1200 sites might have used bricks in the order of several millions. We have the word for brick borrowed from Sanskrit in Avestan in 3rd century BCE. Tocharian A and B are from 1st millennium CE, and these languages got the word for brick from Iran.

> Yet apparently Víṣṇu isn't a deity.

Definitely Vishnu is a deity. what Vedicists have written is that he is not the Puranic Vishnu, as developed in first centuries CE. Vishnu is the Solar deity in the Veda.

Similar to Shiva in RV. He is not the Shiva of later periods. In Tamil, only Jains start using Siva first, much later than the Sangam period.

If you want me to teach you for free, go to my YouTube channel. Don't bother me when I am off work and ask me to go do research for you. You think I have 30 minutes to spare for each request?
