In the 19th century, the rector of Boston University, Warren, argued that the origin of modern civilization is the Arctic region of the Earth. Nowadays, the famous traveler, artist and orientalist Allan Rannu is engaged in similar research.

Where did humanity come from?

I will not say about all of humanity, but as for the peoples belonging to the so-called Indo-European group, their roots, of course, are in the north - in those places where the glacier reached during the last glaciation. Oddly enough, this glaciation covered a relatively small part of Europe: Scandinavia, the Kola Peninsula and the northernmost coast of the Arctic Ocean. Moreover, in the post-glacial period, from the eighth to the fifth millennium BC. e., the climate in the north was much warmer than modern. Birches and spruces grew to the very coast of the Arctic Ocean, only later the tundra spread there.

It can be assumed that 30,000 years ago, our ancestors settled much farther north. Then, as the snap became colder, people retreated south, since it turned out to be almost impossible to live on the ice sheet: look at modern Antarctica.

In the ancient Vedas and Upanishads, as well as in the texts of the Mahabharata, it is mentioned that day and night in those places last for several months. The Vedas also tell about the northern lights, which are described as the heavenly battles of the gods, about lakes, rivers and seas, frozen for a long time. The legend about the king of the gods Indra says that Tvashtar (the Creator, or Divine Master), angry with Indra, created a huge serpent that swallowed the sun (Surya) and chained all the waters in stone (ice). Indra, killing the snake, freed the daylight, and again streams ran and rivers flowed …

It is appropriate to recall the Pigeon Book, often called the Russian Vedas, in which a certain creature named Indrik, or Indra, is described, clearing the keys and liberating the waters. Vedic sources also mention animals and plants that are found only in our strip and to the north: elk, brown bear, white birch, spruce.

Germanic myths describe a certain country called Thule, located far to the north. This is the land of bliss and grace, where beautiful and wise people live. The Avesta - the sacred book of the Zoroa-Stryans - has many things in common with the Vedas. It is quite obvious that they have a common root. But what is most surprising is that in the texts of the ancient Tibetan religion Bon there are many references to the northern country of White Tara.

It is interesting that the Kalmyks, being Tibetan Buddhists, having accepted Russian citizenship, declared Catherine the Great the earthly embodiment of White Tara, the Buddhist goddess of mercy. After the revolution, the Mongols, Kalmyks, Tibetans and Tuvans expected that it was from the Russian North that the kingdom of justice would come and the last war would begin, which would bring liberation to all people. By the way, these expectations were skillfully used by the Bolsheviks in order to spread their influence to the east as far as possible.

Lake Kaali

The ancient Greeks called all the lands north of the Black Sea Hyperborea, mentioning that the Riphean Mountains stretch from west to east in its center. Many myths claim that in the west of Hyperborea, the fiery chariot of Phaethon once fell from the sky. Amber has been found in those places since that time. The studies carried out allowed us to assume that the myth about Phaeton is about a meteorite that flew over Greece and fell on the island of Saaremaa in Estonia. At the place of the fall, there was a round funnel filled with water - Lake Kaali.

Where the sun doesn't set

At the end of the 19th century, an outstanding Indian scholar of Sanskrit and Vedas B. G. Tilak came to the conclusion that the ancestors of the Hindus - the Aryans - came from the far north, and their own ancestors lived on the shores of the Milk (Whitefoam) Sea. How can we not remember our White Sea? In addition, Tilak discovered a description of the island of Shvetadvip (translated as a country or cardinal point), where the sage Narada went from the Meru mountains in the northwest direction (his name coincides with the name of one of the main peaks in the Polar Urals). Reaching the island, Narada, offering prayer to God, saw the sky lit up with colorful lights. It can be assumed that we are talking about the island of Spitsbergen and the auroras.

The Vedas constantly mention Mount Meru with the main peak Mandara, from where rivers flow to the north and south. The mountains themselves stretch from west to east. At first, it was assumed that the Ural Mountains were described in the Vedas and Mahabharata, but they stretch from north to south and separate rivers flowing to the west and east. So we have to look somewhere in the north for the watershed between the Black and Caspian Seas and the White Sea with the Arctic Ocean.

And this is a chain of small hills, stretching from Karelia to the Urals, which is called Northern Uvaly: on one side of this low ridge are the Dnieper, Don and Volga, on the other - the Northern Dvina. Here they are - Mount Meru from Indian mythology. By the way, the highest point of the Northern Ridges is called Mandara, just like in the Rig Veda. Approximately the same information is contained in the Avesta. True, there the mountains are called Hara (light, golden, sunny).

I have visited Nepal, the spiritual capital of the world. In the Dolpo principality, north of the Himalayas, I became friends with the tutor of a small Bon monastery in the village of Chkharka. In the house of this monk there was a bag with books taken from an even more ancient monastery, which was destroyed by a landslide about 400 years ago. When we were sorting through the scattered sheets of ancient manuscripts written in Tibetan and Shang-shung scripts, we talked about the mountains of Kailash and Meru.

I asked if Kailash and Meru are the same peak? The fact is that in Dolpo itself there are also the so-called Crystal Mountains. They are considered to be the support of the invisible axis of the world, while both Kailash and the mythical Meru are the axis of the manifest world. The Lama replied that this is not the same thing, since near Mount Meru, the North Star is much higher in the sky than in Tibet, and that the real Mount Meru is much farther north, where the sun is in the sky and does not set …

Aryan legacy

In the Russian North, there are incredibly few physical artifacts confirming the northern origin of mankind. However, there is folklore, ornaments, symbols, roots of words, toponyms. Yes, the same Dove Book, Veles's book may well be called the Russian Vedas! In addition, there are many common rituals and beliefs in our and Indian culture. Remember at least Shrovetide with its burning of a stuffed animal and setting fire to the spinning wheels.

The same thing is done today in Indian villages: they burn Moksha - probably an analogue of the Slavic goddess Mokosh. The pillars with faces, which Prince Vladimir ordered to uproot after the baptism of Rus, are still found throughout India in our time. Again, the Slavic supreme god Perun is the same as the Indian Varuna. Both have in their hand either a bundle of lightning, or a thunder ax - in Sanskrit Vajra. By the way, the same root is preserved in the Estonian language: vasar - hammer or ax. And although Estonians do not belong to the Indo-European, but to the Finno-Ugric group, they were nevertheless very strongly influenced by the Aryan heritage.

Let's look at the Russian word "warrior", which has the ancient Aryan root "rat", which means a wheel. A warrior is, in fact, a warrior on a war chariot. It was the technique of chariot warfare that allowed the Aryan tribes to spread all the way to India and Asia Minor (in the latter case, they began to be called the Hittites).

In Estonian, ratas means wheel. And among the Hindus, ratna is "a jewel like the Sun." The sun has always been associated with a wheel. The wheel can also be seen on the flag of India. On the roof of every Buddhist monastery there is a wheel depicting the spread of the Buddha's teachings. The analogies are obvious.
