This significant work addresses a crucial gap in our understanding of human history, challenging conventional views and offering a spiritual perspective on our origins and identity. David Frawley, recognized as a Vedacharya in India, draws from his extensive knowledge of Vedic traditions and insights from various scholars. This book is part of a series exploring different aspects of Vedic knowledge, such as Ayurveda, astrology, and yoga. The text presents compelling evidence of a shared spiritual culture in the ancient world, suggesting that modern civilization may represent a decline rather than progress. Frawley reinterprets ancient Vedic teachings, shedding light on often overlooked insights and recent archaeological findings in India that are just beginning to be understood. It explores the geography of the ancient Vedic world, including the sacred Himalayan regions, and traces the lineages of Vedic kings and their realms. The book deciphers the ancient Vedic calendar and its sophisticated astronomical system predating 4000 B.C., revealing yogic practices of ancient seers that may have influenced all major world religions. It posits that ancient peoples, including those from Sumeria, Egypt, China, and the Americas, could be linked to Vedic culture. This work profoundly challenges established views on the origins of civilizations, prompting readers to reconsider the essence of humanity.
