Aryans in the Nazi Concept

 

Aryans in the Nazi Concept

 

 

When Agudengba and Lhacuo were resting in a post station in Tibet, they talked with the owner of the post station, Sinvar, about the thangka hanging on the wall of the post station. The Buddha statue in the thangka had a "swastika" logo on the chest. It represents Buddhism, and it also means that the inn owner Sinval is a Buddhist. Sinval claimed to be of Aryan descent.

Sinval said to Agudemba and Latso:

The "卍" character represents Buddhism; the "卐" character represents Bon religion. Bon Religion often prides itself on being "Yongzhong (White) Edition". "Yongzhong" is the Tibetan pronunciation of the "卍" character, and its "auspicious knot" symbol means "good luck never ends". The character "卍" (卍) with four dots in it means that the temple buildings represent the four heavenly kings of "wind, harmony, rain and smoothness", and the residential buildings represent the four auspicious omens of "wealth, wealth, longevity and happiness".

The six-pointed star symbol that appears from time to time, as well as the "auspicious", "he" and "hua" characters are variations of the "sun and moon" combination symbol, the "卍" (swastika) character, the "ten" character, and the yin and yang sun symbol. The characters have the same meaning: the "十" character is the original and static yin and yang combination symbol, the "卍" (swastika) character and the yin and yang Tai Chi symbol are the abstract and dynamic yin and yang combination symbols, the "sun and moon" combination symbols, "吉" The character "合" is the yin and yang combination of static and solid geometry. The six-pointed star symbol is a static and flat geometric pattern of yin and yang intersecting.

The Thangka, statue and mandala of Tibetan Buddhism's "Joy and Space" combine wisdom and sorrow, and are a "synthesis" of the harmonious unity of yin and yang, representing the harmony of the four levels of external, internal, secret and extreme secrets, and are the path towards harmony. The ways of life, harmony, harmony, harmony, harmony and love are also a three-dimensional expression of the combination of yin and yang. The combination of "convex" and "concave" with "sun" and "moon" means carrying yin and embracing yang, a natural combination and harmony.

Lacuo asked:

So what is the difference between "卍" and "卍", and what is the connection between them? During World War II, how did the "swastika" symbol evolve before it became the symbol of the German Nazi Party?

Sinval said:

When you see the "swastika", some people may find it strange, but friends who are familiar with history may think: Isn't this the symbol of the Nazi organization in Germany during World War II? Indeed, it was used throughout the battlefields of World War II. The German Nazi army carried a symbol similar to this and invaded most of Europe, bringing great disasters to people of all countries.

Maybe many people don't know that Hitler respected the Aryans very much. He believed that the Aryans were the best nation in the world. Hitler believed that the German nation originated from the Aryans. This theory mainly comes from Hitler's book "Mein Kampf". Hitler was not a historian, and many of his conclusions actually came from his subjective assumptions.

Hitler's expansionist mentality needed an ancestor. He hoped that the Germans would dare to conquer the east and west like the Aryans, and completely overturn an old world order.

As for the origin of "卐", it is usually considered to be the evolution of "卍". After all, the two are just mirror-image flips, and even the pronunciation has not changed. The reason why Hitler adopted "swastika" as his symbol is very simple. In ancient times, "swastika" was the symbol of the Aryans, and ancient India was also an Aryan people.

Hitler, who was divided into different races, attached great importance to the distinction between races, so he adopted the "swastika" as a symbol. However, the Nazi Party flag is slightly different from the "swastika". It is not straight, but rotated 45°, and has a white background and black body as the color. The German name is "Hakenkreuz", which translates as "Hooked Cross" and is related to the "Iron Cross".

Of course, there are many opinions on why Hitler chose the "swastika" symbol. Some people think that this is related to the "National Socialist Party" that the Nazi Party means. Because the words "state" and "society" in German both begin with "S", the two letters combined become "swastika".

Some people also say that this symbol comes from Hitler's childhood experience. He once lived in a monastery when he was a child, and the flag of the monastery was the "swastika". The abbot often wore an armband with the "swastika" symbol. Hitler, who had envied the dean's power since he was a child, could never forget it. Later, he even adopted the "swastika" as his party flag.

Sinval further explained:

Regardless of the reason, it can be determined that Hitler's choice of "Swastika" has nothing to do with Buddhism, so the relationship between "Swastika" and "Swastika" is very clear.

"卍" and "卐" were first born in the Aryans, and there was no strict distinction at that time. After the Aryans occupied India, "Swastika" became the Buddhist symbol of ancient India. During the evolution, it was also changed to "Swastika" by some ethnic groups and became the symbol of some ethnic groups, one of which is the Aryan nation. The reason why Hitler chose "swastika" as his symbol is also related to this.

Lacuo said:

However, because these two symbols are similar, they are very sensitive in certain situations. You must not make a mistake. If you make a mistake, you may get beaten. I once heard that a Mongolian rapper mistook the word "swastika" for Buddhism during a performance, and ended up performing wearing clothes with the Nazi party symbol "swastika" on it. A Russian officer in the audience was furious after seeing this, and rushed to the stage to greet him with an iron fist from a fighting nation. After all, the Soviet Union and Germany had deep grievances during World War II. Tens of millions of Soviet soldiers died at the hands of the Nazis, so Russians hate the Nazi symbol.

Sinval said:

One is a text symbol that symbolizes the great love, compassion and auspiciousness of Buddhism, and the other is a demonic symbol that has caused thousands of crimes and brought misery to people. Although "Swastika" and "Swastika" are similar, they are very different. . Even though Buddhism has not made a final decision on whether these two Buddha names should be left or right, but influenced by the history of World War II, people basically subconsciously believe that the "swastika" character is the orthodox representative of Buddhism.

Sinval added:

In fact, the "swastika" in the Nazi flag appeared in ancient times and became a charm in many tribes. It appeared in the history of ancient India, Persia, Greece, Egypt, Troy and other countries, and was later adopted by some ancient people. Used by religion.

According to archaeological data, as early as 6000-7000 years ago, the ancestors of China's Gansu and Qinghai regions had the "swastika" character on the pottery they made, which shows that the "swastika" character is a symbol with a long history. Initially people regarded it as a symbol of the sun or fire, and later it was generally used as a symbol of auspiciousness and eternity. This word means an auspicious symbol appearing between the sea, clouds and sky.

Hitler said in the book "Mein Kampf": The word "swastika" symbolizes the mission of fighting for the victory of the Aryan people.

In fact, it is not difficult to find from here that Hitler’s starting point is consistent with the historical meaning of this symbol, both yearning for a better life. However, the Nazis based this happiness on the destruction of other civilizations and other races, which ultimately led to failure.

  "Swastika" is painted on the chest of Buddha Tathagata, which is considered by Buddhists to be an "auspicious sign" that can emit precious light. The translation of the word "卍" in Chinese Buddhism is also inconsistent. A scripture in the Northern Wei Dynasty translated it into the word "Wan". In the Tang Dynasty, Xuanzang and others translated it into the word "德", emphasizing the immeasurable merits of the Buddha. In the Tang Dynasty, The empress Wu Zetian also designated it as the word "Wan", which means to gather all the auspicious merits in the world. In the "Tibetan-Chinese Dictionary", it is recorded that it means solid and eternal.

But no matter what, to this day, the "swastika" symbol of Nazi Germany has nothing to do with Buddhism. One is a war demon mark that brings infinite painful memories to all mankind, and the other is a symbol of great love and love that has lasted for thousands of years. The Buddhist symbols of compassion are completely different in both their connotation and denotation.

Sinval sang a Buddhist song "Make a Wish in the Face of the Swastika":

 

Make a wish in front of the swastika,

The auspicious sign emits precious light,

Thank you Tathagata for your immeasurable merit,

Wan Ji brings good luck and peace to the world.

 

Great love and mercy for thousands of years,

Don’t live your life for fame and fortune,

Buddha's light shines on the plateau,

If you have a kind heart, you can enter heaven.

 

If there really is a destiny for another life,

Even if my life is bitter and cold,

Wandering around the world, I won’t change,

Just pray for the blessings and peace of all living beings.

纳粹概念中的雅利安人（雪域寓言）

 

纳粹概念中的雅利安人

 

 

阿古登巴和拉措在西藏的一个驿站里休息时， 与驿站老板辛伐尔谈论起驿站墙面上挂着的那幅唐卡，唐卡中的佛像胸前有一个“卍”字标识，代表了佛教，也意味着驿站老板辛伐尔是个佛教徒。辛伐尔自称自己是雅利安人的后裔。

辛伐尔对阿古登巴和拉措说：

“卍”字符，代表佛教；“卐”字符，代表苯教。苯教往往以“雍中（白）本”自诩，“雍中”是藏语对“卍”字符的读音，其“吉祥结”符，寓意“吉祥不到头”。“卍”（卐）字符里加四个点，寺庙建筑寓意“风、调、雨、顺”四大天王，民居建筑寓意“富、禄、寿、喜”四大吉兆。

不时出现的六芒星符和“吉”字符、“合”字符、“化”字符，则是“日月”结合符、“卍”（卐）字符、“十”字符、阴阳太阳符的一种变体，意思都一样：“十”字符为原始和静态的阴阳结合符，“卍”（卐）字符、阴阳太极符为抽象和动态的阴阳结合符，“日、月”结合符、“吉”字符、“合”字符为静态和立体几何学的阴阳结合符。六芒星符则为静态和平面几何学的阴阳交合图案。

藏密“乐空双运”的智悲合一本尊唐卡、塑像和坛城则为阴阳和谐统一的“综合体”，代表外、内、秘和极密四个层次的和合，是走向和生、和处、和立、和达、和爱的生生之道，也是阴阳结合符的一种立体表现形式。“凸”、“凹”和“日”、“月”结合符寓意负阴抱阳，天作之合、和实生物。

拉措问道：

那么“卍”和“卐”到底有什么区别，他们之间又有何联系？二战时期，“卐”标记经过怎样的演变才会成为德国纳粹党的党标的？

辛伐尔说：

当大家看到“卍”时，可能有些人觉得陌生，但熟悉历史的朋友可能就会想到：这不是二战德国的纳粹组织标志吗?确实，在整个二战战场中。德国纳粹的军队就是携带着一个与这个类似的符号侵略了大半个欧洲，给各国人民带来了极大的灾难。

也许很多人不知道，希特勒非常尊崇雅利安人，他认为雅利安人是世界上最优秀的民族。希特勒认为德意志民族就起源于雅利安人。这一理论主要来源于希特勒的《我的奋斗》一书。希特勒不是历史学家，很多结论实际上来源于他的主观臆断。

希特勒的扩张心理需要一个祖先，他希望德国人能像雅利安人那样敢于东征西讨，彻底颠覆一个旧世界旧秩序。

至于“卐”的来源，通常被认为是“卍”的演变，毕竟两者只是进行了镜像翻转，连读音都没有变化。而希特勒之所以采用“卐”作为标志，原因很简单，在古代“卐”就是雅利安人的符号，古印度也曾经是雅利安人。

有着种族高低之分的希特勒，对种族之间的区别非常重视，因此他采用“卐”作为标志。不过纳粹党旗标与“卐”有细微的差别，并不是端正的，而是进行了45°的旋转，并且以白底黑身作为颜色。德文为“Hakenkreuz”，翻译过来就是“带钩的十字”，与“铁十字”相关联。

当然关于希特勒为什么要选用“卐”字标，还有许多说法，有人认为这和纳粹党寓意的“国家社会党”有关。因为在德文中“国家”和“社会”的开头字母都是“S”，这两个字母组合在一起就成了“卐”。

也有人说这个标志来自于希特勒小时候的经历，他小时候曾经住在一家修道院中，而修道院的旗帜就是“卐”，院长经常佩戴“卐”标志的袖章。小时候就羡慕院长权势的希特勒，一直难以忘怀，后来干脆就以“卐”作为自己党旗的标志。

辛伐尔又解释说：

不管是那一种原因，都可以确定希特勒选用“卐”和佛教无关，因此“卍”和“卐”之间的关系就非常清晰明了。

“卍”和“卐”最先诞生于雅利安，那时并没有严格的区别。雅利安占领印度后，“卍”成为古印度的佛教符号，在演变中也被部分民族改成“卐”，并且成为部分民族的符号，雅利安民族就是其中一支。而希特勒选用“卐”作为标志的原因也与此有关。

拉措说：

不过，因为这两个符号差不多，在某些场合却非常敏感，千万不能弄错，一旦弄错很可能挨揍。我曾听说，有一位蒙古说唱歌手，在演出中将代表佛教的“卍”弄错了，最后穿着带有纳粹党标“卐”字的衣服演出。台下一位俄罗斯军官看后当初怒发冲冠，直接冲上台就是一顿战斗民族的铁拳问候。毕竟二战时期苏德两国结怨颇深，有上千万的苏联士兵死在了纳粹手中，因此俄罗斯人才会对纳粹标志痛恨不已。

辛伐尔说：

一个是象征着佛教大爱和慈悲吉祥的文字符号，一个则是造下万千杀孽，给人们带来惨痛遭遇的恶魔标志，“卍”与“卐”虽然相似，却有着天差地别。即使佛教至今对于这两个佛号还没有定下确论，究竟要左旋还是右旋，但是受到二战历史的影响，基本上人们都下意识的认定“卍”字符才是佛教的正统代表。

辛伐尔又说道：

其实纳粹党旗里面的“卐”在上古时代就出现，并且成为了很多部落里面的一种符咒，在古代印度、波斯、希腊、埃及、特洛伊等国的历史上均有出现，后来被古代的一些宗教所沿用。

根据考古资料证明，早在6000-7000年以前中国的甘肃、青海地区的先民们，在制造的陶器上已有“卐”字符，足见“卐”字符是一个具有悠久历史的符号。最初人们把它看成是太阳或火的象征，以后普遍被作为吉祥、永恒的标志。这个字意思是呈现在大海云天之间的吉祥象征。

希特勒在《我的奋斗》一书中说：“卐”字象征争取雅利安人胜利斗争的使命。

其实从这里不难发现，希特勒的出发点和这个符号的历史意思是一致的，都是向往美好的生活，但纳粹分子把这种幸福建立在毁坏别的文明和其他种族上，最终导致失败。

 “卍”被画在佛祖如来的胸部，被佛教徒认为是“瑞相”，能涌出宝光的意思。中国佛教对“卍”字的翻译也不尽一致，北魏时期的一部经书把它译成“万”字，唐代玄奘等人将它译成“德”字，强调佛的功德无量，唐代女皇帝武则天又把它定为“万”字，意思是集天下一切吉祥功德。而在《藏汉大辞典》里则记载为坚固，永恒不变的意思。

但不管怎样，时至今日，纳粹德国的“卐”字标志与佛教没有任何关联，一个是带给全人类无限惨痛记忆的战争恶魔标记，一个是延续了数千年之久象征着大爱与慈悲的佛教符号，两者无论其内涵与外延，都有着天壤之别。

辛伐尔唱起了一首佛歌《面对卍字许个愿》：

 

面对卍字许个愿，

瑞相涌出宝光来，

功德无量谢如来，

万集吉祥天下安。

 

大爱慈悲数千年，

不为名利度一生，

佛光闪闪耀高原，

心善便能入天堂。

 

假如真有来世缘，

哪怕一生清苦寒，

浪迹天涯我不变，

只为众生祈福安。

 

Buddhist swastika and Nazi swastika

 

Buddhist swastika and Nazi swastika

 

 

Agudengba and Lacuo came to a post station in Tibet along the Yunnan-Tibet Tea Horse Road. The owner of the inn who received them, Sinval, was an Indian. But to Agudengba's surprise, Sinval claimed that he was an Aryan. descendants.

There is a thangka hanging on the wall of the inn. The Buddha in the thangka has a "swastika" logo on the chest, which represents Buddhism and also means that the owner of the inn, Sinval, is a Buddhist.

Sinval versus Agudumba and Latso:

This "swastika" logo is actually a word, but many people don't know that this logo is actually a word. The pronunciation of the character "卍" is the same as that of the character "万". When pronounced as "wan", it has the meaning of auspiciousness and happiness.

"Swastika" was not originally a word, but a symbol of Buddhism. It was first introduced to Tibet from India. At that time, because of the advocating for Buddhism, it was defined as a word. Before that, this word had no pronunciation. Wu Zetian formulated the pronunciation for it, and the pronunciation was Wanziyin, which means good luck and virtue.

In early Han Buddhism, there were two ways of writing this character: "卍" and "卐". Many people will always mistake these two words for the same word if they don't look carefully. In fact, the two words have the same pronunciation, but they later express different meanings. These two symbols just use a clone technique.

When Buddhism was first introduced to China from ancient India, the symbol actually looked like this: swastika, which meant auspiciousness. Therefore, many people who decide to devote themselves to Buddhism also decide to escape into Buddhism and devote themselves to practice in order to protect themselves and their families’ health and good fortune.

Buddhism has always used the word "swastika", but if we go to Tibet, we can also see "swastika" on the windows of every house, on the walls outside, and even in their cars. This sign is on the iron plate on the car. "Swastika" in Tibet means auspiciousness, luck, and auspiciousness, so every family has one.

If you carefully observe the characters "卍" and "卐", these two characters are opposite. The two patterns are very easy to confuse, one is swastika and the other is swastika.

In fact, this pattern consisting of a cross and four extended lines has already existed in the early stages of human civilization. There is no significant difference in meaning between the left and right directions of rotation. In September 1985, archaeologists discovered three ancient rock paintings in Ritu County, Ali, Tibet. Among them, the rock face No. 1 of the Renmudong Rock Painting in Risong District shows a grand scene of killing and sacrificing. In addition to the sacrifices - - In addition to 125 sheep heads and 10 clay pots, there are also paintings of horses, fish, moon, sun, male and female genitals, etc. Among the two dancing figures wearing bird-head-shaped masks, there is a swastika. On rock face No. 13 at the same location, vessels decorated with swastika symbols on their abdomens are mixed with animal patterns such as deer, leopards, and yaks. On the rock face No. 1 of Chasanke Rock Painting in Doma District, the swastika symbol appears on the right side of a big tree, surrounded by the moon, the sun and many small dots.

In fact, the characters "卍" and "卐" are derived from the totems of the Aryans. It was only after the Aryans occupied India that it became a symbol of Buddha in India. The totems of the Aryans were also injected into the Western Regions of ancient China. It cannot be generally said that the word "Swastika" was first introduced to Tibet from India.

Sinval said:

Because Hitler later used the word "swastika", the meaning of the word "swastika" changed.

Looking back at the history of World War II, as the symbol of German fascism, the "swastika" often appeared on the Nazi flag, and even Hitler often wore an armband with this symbol. But many people who are familiar with Buddhist culture know that the fascist symbol "Swastika" is very similar to the "Swastika" in Buddhism.

In fact, historically the "swastika" symbol on the German fascist Nazi party emblem has nothing to do with the Buddhist "swastika".

The full name of the Nazi Party is the German National Socialist Workers' Party. The Chinese meaning is "National Socialist Party". In German, the prefixes for "state" and "society" are both "s". Hitler staggered and overlapped these two prefixes to form the shape of "swastika".

Sinval added:

In fact, there is a significant difference between the Buddhist "swastika" and the Nazi party emblem "swastika": Buddhism uses gold, while the Nazi party uses black.

The two patterns "卐" and "卍" are very easy to confuse. One is swastika and the other is swastika. The former was notorious as the symbol of the German Nazis during World War II, while the latter is commonly seen in temple ritual objects and is called the swastika pattern by the Chinese. . One is evil and the other is good, one is bad and the other is good. The right-hand and left-hand crosses have completely different meanings.

Sinval sang a "Swastika Song":

 

Swastika and swastika are two words,

The direction of rotation is divided into left and right,

There is no difference in meaning expression,

Pray for good luck and good luck.

 

Swastika and swastika are two words,

Human beings have existed since early times,

The source is Aryan,

I just want the world to be auspicious.

 

The swastika temple is a dharma vessel,

Buddhists call it the Ten Thousand Character Pattern;

See the German Nazi flag,

Infamous as hell.

 

Swastika is one evil and one good,

Swastika means one is good and one is bad.

The cross fold line rotates left and right,

The meanings are so different.

佛教的卍和纳粹的卐（雪域寓言）

 

佛教的卍和纳粹的卐

 

 

阿古登巴和拉措沿着滇藏茶马古道来到了西藏的一个驿站， 接待他们的驿站老板辛伐尔是个印度人，但令阿古登巴惊喜的是，辛伐尔自称自己是雅利安人的后裔。

在驿站的墙面上挂着一幅唐卡，唐卡中的佛像胸前有一个“卍”字标识，代表了佛教，也意味着驿站老板辛伐尔是个佛教徒。

辛伐尔对阿古登巴和拉措：

这个“卍”标识其实是一个字，但很多人都不知道这个标志其实是一个字。这个“卍”字和“万”字的发音一样，念“wan”，有着吉祥喜旋的寓意。

“卍”原本不是字，而是佛教的一个符号，最早由印度传入西藏，在时期因为崇尚佛教，因此将其定义为一个字，在此之前这个字并没有读音。武则天为此给它制定了读音，定音为万字音，寓意着吉祥万德。

在早期的汉地佛教当中：这个字有两种写法，分别是：“卍”和“卐”。很多人不仔细看，总会把这两个字当成一个字，其实这两个字发音一样，但后来所表达的意义却不同。这两个符号只是使用了一个分身术。

佛教刚从古印度传到中国时，这个标志其实是长这样的卐，他的意思是吉祥。所以有很多决定一心向佛的人也是为了保佑自己和家人的健康吉祥，才决定遁入佛门，潜心修行。

佛教一直都是用这个“卍”字，但是我们如果去西藏的话也可以看到“卐字”，他们每家每户的窗户上，外边的墙上到处都是，甚至他们的车里还有车上的铁牌上都是这个标志。“卐字”在西藏寓意就是吉祥，幸运的意思，也是祥瑞的意思，所以他们每一家都有。

你们仔细观察“卍”字和“卐字”，这两个字是相反的。两个图案非常容易混淆，一个是卐，一个是卍。

其实，这种由十字和四端延长线构成的图案，在人类文明的早期阶段就已经存在了，旋转方向的左右之分，并没有寓意上的显著差异。1985年9月，考古人员在西藏阿里日土县发现过三处古代岩画，其中，日松区任姆栋岩画1号岩面上，展示的是杀生献祭的宏大场景，除了表现祭品——125个羊头和10个陶罐以外，还绘有马、鱼、月亮、太阳、男女生殖器等内容，在两个戴鸟首形面具的舞蹈人物中间，就画着一个卐。同一地点的13号岩面，腹部装饰着卍形符号的器皿，与鹿、豹、牦牛等动物图案混杂一处。而在多玛区恰桑克岩画1号岩面上，卐形符号又出现在一棵大树的右侧，周围是月亮、太阳和许多小圆点。

事实上，“卍”字和“卐”字源自于雅利安人的图腾。雅利安人占领了印度后，才在印度成为佛的象征符号。雅利安人的图腾也注入了古代中国西域地区，不能笼统地说“卍”字最早是由印度传入西藏的。

辛伐尔说道：

因为后来的希特勒用了这个“卐”字，所以“卐”字的意义就发生了改变。

回顾二战历史，作为德国法西斯的标志“卐”经常出现在纳粹的旗帜上，就连希特勒也经常戴着这一标志的袖章。但是很多对佛教文化有了解的人都知道，法西斯的标志“卐”与佛教中的“卍”非常相似。

事实上，历史上德国法西斯纳粹党徽上的“卐”字符号与佛教“卍”字毫无关系。

纳粹党的全称是德意志民族社会主义工人党。中文意思是“国家社会党”，在德文中“国家”和“社会”的字头都是“s”，希特勒将这两个字头交错重叠在一起，就形成了“卐”的形状。

辛伐尔又说道：

其实，佛家“卍”与纳粹党徽“卐”有一个显著区别是:佛教采用金色，纳粹党则用黑色。

“卐”与“卍”这两个图案非常容易混淆，一个是卐，一个是卍，前者作为二战时期德国纳粹的标识而臭名昭著，后者则常见于庙堂法器，被中国人称为万字纹。一恶一善，一凶一吉，交叉折线的右旋和左旋，含义竟然天差地别。

辛伐尔唱起了一首《卍卐歌》：

 

卍和卐是两个字，

旋转方向左右分，

寓意表达无差异，

祈愿吉祥和幸运。

 

卍和卐是两个字，

人类早期就存在，

源头来自雅利安，

只求天下保祥瑞。

 

卍见庙堂为法器，

佛徒称为万字纹；

卐见德国纳粹旗，

臭名昭著惊天地。

 

卐卍是一恶一善，

卍卐是一吉一凶，

交叉折线左右旋，

含义竟天差地别。

Who are the ancestors of the Aryans?

 

Who are the ancestors of the Aryans?

 

Agudengba and Lacuo came to a Tibet along the ancient Yunnan-Tibet Tea Horse Road.

There was a small horse farm next to the inn, and Agudenba and Lacuo decided to take a rest here first.

The inn owner who received them, Sinval, was an Indian and his daughter was named Aya. Sinval and Aya warmly received Lacuo and Agudengba. After settling the caravan members and the donkeys and horses, Lacuo, Agudengba and Sinval started chatting.

Sinval told Agudumba and Latso that he claimed to be a descendant of the Aryans. His hometown lives in northern India.

Agudumba asked Sinval:

Legend has it that the common ancestors of all the Indian-speaking peoples and the Iranian-speaking peoples are the Aryans. In which countries are the Aryans currently located?

Sinval smiled and said:

The Aryans (Sanskrit: âryâ) were originally an ancient nomadic people in the grasslands of the southern Ural Mountains in Russia. They migrated to the plains between the Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers in Central Asia.

However, no one claims that the ancestors of the Aryans are Russians or Ukrainians, and these people are called Aryan-Punjabis. Around the 14th century BC, the Aryan-Punjab people moved southward into the northwest of the South Asian subcontinent. These are the Aryans mentioned in ancient Indian texts. They drove the ancient Dravidians southward, created the Vedic culture and established the caste system, and brought the Aryan-Punjabi language to India. Eventually the ancient Aryans and the ancient Dravidians merged into today's unique South Asian subcontinent.

Aryans is the general name for all Indo-European language groups in European literature in the 19th century. From the comparative study of ancient Indian and Persian documents, it can be inferred that in ancient times there was a tribal group in Central Asia that called itself "Arya". They were engaged in animal husbandry, good at riding and shooting, had a patriarchal clan organization, and worshiped many gods.

Between 2000 and 1000 BC, one group went south and settled in the upper reaches of the Indus River, one group moved southwest into Persia, and the other moved into Asia Minor. Since the 18th century European linguistic circles discovered that Sanskrit has something in common with Greek, Latin, Celtic, Germanic, Slavic, etc., the term "Aryan" was used to summarize these languages, which are now commonly known as Indo-European languages. Language, all ethnic groups that use related languages are collectively called "Aryans".

Agudumba asked Sinval again:

Mr. Zinval, you just said that the Aryans worshiped many gods. What is their main belief?

Sinval said:

The main religious beliefs of the Aryans are Zoroastrianism and Hinduism. The main literature classics include the ancient Persian scriptures of Zoroastrianism, the Avesta and the Rig Veda. The myths and stories circulated are mainly Persian myths and Indian myths.

In the Zoroastrian classic Persian scripture "Avesta", King Feridun had three sons, the eldest son Tuirya, the second son Salem (Sairima) and the youngest son Aryan (Airya). , the king divided the empire into three parts when he was old. The eldest son Tuirya ruled the east, which evolved into the Tur people (Turan people), and was the ancestor of the Turks; the second son Sairima ruled the west. Ancestor of the Romans; the youngest son Aryan took charge of the central and southern parts and evolved into the Elan (Iranians), the ancestor of the Aryans. Of course, this legend is older in ancient Persian culture than what is recorded in the classic Zoroastrian literature, the ancient Persian scripture "Avesta".

One theory is that the word Aryan comes from Iranian Persian, which means "people of faith"; another theory is that it comes from Sanskrit, which means "noble".

Agudemba was very surprised:

It turns out that King Feridon's three sons were actually the ancestors of Turks, Romans and Iranians respectively.

Sinval continued:

Around 500 BC, during the lifetime of Confucius, an Aryan named Zoroaster founded Zoroastrianism, also known as Zoroastrianism. This religion was once practiced by most of the settled Aryan peoples. From the 7th to the 9th century AD, the Arabs ruled Persia, and the entire Persia began to be Islamized and began to exterminate Zoroastrianism. In the 11th century, Zoroastrianism became extinct in Persia. During these two hundred years of history, Arab and Islamic culture left a deep imprint on Persia. The Persian shape was changed from wedge shape to Arabic tadpole shape.

A large number of Arabic words have entered Persian, accounting for about 60% of Persian. But Persians are most afraid of others seeing them as Arabs. In fact, the ancient Persians did not believe in Islam. Agudengba asked again: The Aryans have ruled India for more than two thousand years, and India has a serious caste system. Why can Aryans, as "outsiders", become a high caste?

Sinval replied:

There are indeed records of Aryan invasions in Indian history. The four castes in India are set up according to the depth of skin color. Among them, Brahmin and Kshatriya are derived from the conqueror Aryans. The physical characteristics of the Aryans are white and light-skinned.

 

Blond hair and blue eyes are not an Aryan trait. The indigenous European Celts had red hair. It is not surprising at all that Slavs possess Aryan chromosomes. Because the Slavs now live in Eastern Europe, that is, the area where the ancient Western branch of the Aryans, the Sarmacians, lived. Sarmaxian is one of the main blood sources of the Slavic nation, but the Slavic nation has no sense of identity with the Aryans.

The Aryans reached the regions they then occupied by one, or rather successive migrations. The final stage of this migration cannot be too far away from the time when the Rig Veda was first compiled, but at the same time a sufficient period of time must have passed.

Lacuo interjected and asked:

Mr. Zinval, you said that you are of Aryan descent. I wonder where the Aryan descendants mainly live now?

Sinval said:

The famous Medes and Persians in Persian history are both descendants of Aryans. The Scythians, Sarmacians, Massagetae, and Alanians mentioned by historians of ancient Greece and Persia were also direct descendants of the Aryans. Since the Aryans had a glorious history, many countries and nations later claimed that the Aryans were their ancestors. The Persians claimed to be the heirs of ancient Aryan culture. The Tajiks claim the same thing.

The modern human genetic map basically explains or proves the migration history of peoples around the world, and also overturns what seemed to be truth in the past. There's something about history that makes it seem like maybe it's more humorous.

Sinval smiled and said:

A genetic map of the world's races (Y chromosome) developed by Americans shows that Aryan genes account for 19.5% of modern Germans (Germanic people). The number of Iranians (Persians) is even lower (18%), which is not as high as that of Uighurs in China (21%). The Aryan genes among Russians account for 47%. The country with the highest Aryan content is Poland, with more than 50%.

Among the Indo-European language-speaking peoples in India, Aryan genes account for 39.5%. This is why most Bollywood stars have white faces, but walking on the streets of India is a huge crowd of black people.

Sinval smiled again and said to Agudumba and Lacuo:

When Chinese people talk about Aryan things, they often ask why the Aryans were so powerful that they swept through Asia, Europe and Africa, and wiped out three ancient civilizations. Why were they helpless against the Chinese civilization? Apparently looking down on Aryans. Not only that, some Chinese people will also ask, why do the histories of Iran and India, both created by the Aryans, start at the beginning but end at the end?

What I want to tell the Chinese people is: The ancient Aryans took their sun god totem Swastika as their flag. In ancient Brahmi, it was pronounced Swastika, and in Chinese, it was simply pronounced wàn. Hitler claimed that the German nation he led was the noble Aryan people. Hitler believed that the "swastika" symbolized "the final victory of the Aryan people." The inferior Slavic peoples that Hitler dreamed of exterminating include Russia, Ukraine, and Poland. In fact, the Slavs are the real Aryans. In terms of genes, that is, chromosomes, the proportion of Aryan genes decreases from east to west and from north to south in Europe. 31% of Norwegians. In Italy there are almost none.

What I also want to tell the Chinese people is:

After Buddhism was introduced to China from India, Chinese people who believed in Buddhism would kneel and kowtow before the word "swastika". They opposed and hated fascism, but they did not understand why Hitler used the word "swastika" as a fascist symbol. Today, when people see this symbol, they no longer know its original meaning, especially Europeans.

In fact, if you identify it carefully, you will find that there is one difference between the ancient Aryan sun god totem symbol "swastika" and the fascist symbol "swastika" designed by Hitler, that is, the difference between "swastika" and "swastika" The left and right rotation directions are different. Perhaps this difference brings about differences in beliefs.

Sinval smiled and said to Agudemba and Latso:

I am not a follower of Zoroastrianism or Hinduism. I believe that I will become Buddha.

Sinval sang a Buddhist song "Enlightenment" in Tibetan:

 

All sentient beings who have not yet been liberated,

They all circulate in the six realms of life and death,

The reincarnation of sentient beings will never end,

Endless troubles are suffering.

 

To be liberated from reincarnation,

You can escape from all kinds of suffering in the world,

Nirvana and liberation from samsara,

Nirvana has no worries in life.

 

There was a Buddha born in this world,

And a Buddha will be born in the future,

There are many Buddhas in the world,

Buddha is not unique.

 

All people and sentient beings,

It is possible for everyone to become a Buddha.

Buddha is an enlightened being,

All living beings are unenlightened Buddhas.

 

Although mortals and saints are different,

But in terms of Buddha nature,

all are equal. Buddha is not the only god;

So Buddhists are atheists.

 

Buddhism is not a religion of worshiping gods;

In fact, it is a philosophical thought,

Thinking that all pain comes from desire,

Impermanence and non-self need to be overcome.

 

Pay attention to spiritual and moral awareness,

It’s not about achieving your own reputation,

Nor is it about controlling power and wealth,

Buddha's belief is to benefit all living beings.
