around four to five thousand years ago
an ancient group of people marched from
Central Asia down the mountain corridor
into the South Asia they were nomadic
and aggressive people armed with horse
chariots and iron blade weapons they
were the mythic Aryans the inhabitants
of South Asia at the time were a
peaceful people in contrast who simply
lived off their own land they worshiped
the earth their goddess for sustaining
them with her fertility the Dravidian
populace was a feminine culture more
concerned with harmony than war but what
happened when these two met is a theme
you can find throughout history a
masculine warlike civilization
overcoming the more passive feminine
despite this still being a controversial
topic the scientific studies themselves
are pretty clear and they have been for
some time if you take any one South
Asian person and you look into their
chromosomes you’ll find two basic
clusters of genes in other words they’re
all descendant from two distinct
cultures you might have used the terms
Arion and Dravidian but geneticists are
more likely to call them a and I and ASI
but it’s clear that some kind of
invasion or gene migration did indeed
take place so what actually happened in
detail several thousand years ago the
entire subcontinent was populated by a
group of hunter-gatherers which
geneticists call AAS I vaguely related
to Andaman Islands near the northwestern
region these same people built a great
civilization called the Indus Valley and
there was also some gene flow with
neighboring Iranian agriculturalists but
the resulting genetic makeup gave us the
people of the Indus Valley Civilisation
which would loosely correspond to what
most people call the Dravidians but as
mentioned before these were not a
warlike people their real contributions
were spiritual in nature and there’s a
lot of evidence to say that esoteric
practices such as yoga actually
developed here the masculine and nomadic
Aryan culture on the other hand was
originally from a region just north of
the Caucasus Mountains the Eurasian
steppe now these same people spread West
into Europe but also east into Central
Asia and being geared for war their
weapons and chariots were highly
advanced from their home in center
Asia they swept down and overcame the
Indus Valley pretty easily
what happened then is twofold firstly
they mixed with the indigenous
inhabitants of the valley secondly
substantial number of the valley people
migrated south and this is what gave
rise to the two ancestral populations of
Ani and ASI what happened subsequently
is a thorough mixing to the extent that
every individual in the region had a
significant mixture of both ASI and Ani
in their own unique genetic makeup the
unique proportion of each individual
just depended on geographical location
as well as other factors but in
principle it was the same the idea of
the Arion invasion was first proposed by
the british and people suspected and
still do that it was a tactic to divide
and rule but it was really just a sound
observation but what the British
anthropologist did not understand was
the esoteric meaning behind it so what
was that the two disparate cultures
Aryan and Dravidian actually represented
principles this was vaguely acknowledged
by some thinkers but the masculine or
yang culture overcoming the overcoming
the feminine yin culture is very
symbolic of our times there are many
examples just think of the Spanish
conquistadors or the Dutch invasion of
South Africa to name just two that’s the
paradigm of the world today and history
generally repeats itself but while this
seems unbalanced it’s actually an
opportunity the real secret of our times
is the ability to harmonize the two to
unite the yin and the yang energy to let
these energies which are now disparate
to synergize with each other this is
really the esoteric task at hand and
it’s something that can only happen
within each individual this is why it’s
so significant that every person has
both principles present in their genetic
makeup giving them the opportunity to be
an integrated individual the esoteric
yin and yang cultures mixing is to find
harmony this remains the task of society
today but most importantly it remains
the task of the individual
