I'm a Hindu Atheist.I keep telling my Hindu brothers - We Indians ought to be proud of our Mythology, the same way Greeks and Vikings are Proud of their Ancestors, Culture, History and Mythology. It doesn't have to be true at all, to be proud of it !!! Hinduism is such a Rich Culture and Tradiition that even if one removes all the Gods from it completely, there Is still so much more for everyone - The Concepts like Gnana (Seeking Wisdom), Kama (Seeking Love), Dharma (Seek Righteousness), Artha (Seeking Meaning in Life), Yoga ( Seeking Mind and Body Mastery) and Moskha (Seeking Spiritual Goals), Natyashastra (The Art of Mastering Dance, Drama and Music) etc. Try reacting to a short summary of Hindu Epics - "Mahabharata" (The Great Bharata War) or "Ramayana" (The Legend of Prince Ram), You will be in for a treat, They are like "Trojan war" and "Illiad", but way more intricate and complicated, Both ending in Ironic and sad ending, even as they involve Heroes and Gods !!!
@Reldrik geo Reactions Let me give some context to why SOOO many hindus were angry about the word mythology... 1) This has been happening since the british came to India and have categorised hindu 'itihasa' or 'historical stories' as 'myth' cause they saw some fantastical parts in it.. And they dismissed it ALL as fantasy 2) This is similar to how the homerian story of Heracles is catergorised as myth yet there is some possibility that it was based on an actual greek king 3) The term myth in india via the educational system has been to label things that are superstition and can be dismissed as such 4) christian missionaries TILL today in India will go in front of temples and call hindu scriptures myth while calling Jesus and the stories in the bible as TRUTH and sadly the so called rationalists in India dont call the Bible similarly 'myth' here.. 5) Conversions into islam is ALSO done in similar way calling ALL things in the quran and hadiths as unquestionable truth instead of 'myth'. Like if you say that muhammed going to the moon on a winged half donkey half woman as a myth they will threaten to kill you.. maybe this helped. I am an atheist but i understand why religious hindus are so touchy after being dismissed for so long
Yes, the earth and moon are 4.5 billion years old right? Or does the Hindu religion give it a different age? I remember reading that the age of the universe is much older according to Hinduism
@@ReldrikGeo ok so its not neccesary to react to this comment but you can I'm Raghav Mishra as you can see in my profile but my name is a synoname for lord Ram And the thing i will tell you is like my own idea but its more like all Indians will agree to 1. the bhraman(Universe) has no air we say but it does not have anything else like not even darkness nor gravity like ocean.(as some calls it cosmic ocean) 2. after creation of something the 1st god took birth (vishnu) and we called it gravity wich helps the matter or u can say life to sustain. 3. as gravity got created there was a parallel creation as well which is its own distruction or life's distruction (called Shiv (god of distruction))(not evil lol)(its a necessity). 4. the gravity helped to form life as nature or you can say god of life(Brhama) in that nature there exist matter enegry and consciousness. 5.

@@ReldrikGeodon't bother mate. People are offended at everything. A simple use of words in a disagreeable way, whether intentional or not, or even when the issue is only in the listener's mind, is enough for people to go on vocal tirades. Too absorbed and obsessed with triviality, I'd say.
@@ReldrikGeo Hindus don't consider their scriptures as "myth", you can rather use he term "ancient stories" for things you don't find believable [except for Ramayana and Mahabharata, together known as Itihasa(s), which translate to history, in other words it did happen], imagine if someone called Jesus a Christian myth.
Myth does mean stories. The word myth is derived from a Greek word that literally means story. Mythology means the study of stories. Myth doesn't mean it's false or wrong and it's not derogatory.
@@ReldrikGeo I agree, but it has a second meaning too which is “widely held false beliefs” akin to delusion, and additionally since there are alternative English words used by the indigenous people to describe their own culture therefore those need to hold traction more. Or in simple words Hindus themselves don’t use mythology to describe their own belief system and have alternate words which are more appropriate.
I'm agnostic as well, and this sukta is my favorite in Rig Veda. I find this sukta to be philosophically more advanced than our current agnostic lines of thinking. Rig veda is mostly hymns and praises for Indra and other Vedic gods (and the famous alcoholic beverage of the Vedic people, Somras). This one sukta is completely different. Philosophically and linguistically it seems very similar to the Upanishads, which are the core philosophical corpus of Hinduism. The last couple of lines fascinates me the most, where it says - Only he knows, unless even he doesn't. Don't mind the masculine pronoun. The poet actively chose not to use a neuter gender pronoun for this entity (although in Sanskrit neuter gender often takes the form of masculine gender, which is not the case here). This sukta is not really a creation myth though. This is more of a poetic/philosophical speculation. Speculation even about the omniscience of Brahman. Although I don't think this sukta talks about the Brahman (the ultimate reality), rather it talks about Purusha (Manifestation of the Brahman. We, the material world, living and non-living, are part of that Purusha, not Brahman. which is a highly debated thing in Hindu philosophy.) The word Purusha means person (as in first second third person etc.) or man/male in Sanskrit. Therefore the poet chose masculine pronoun. The gender rules in Sanskrit is pretty rigid.
If you want to learn about hinduism then you have to see videos of the people who have primary or even secondary sanskrit language sources (and as our scriptures were written down from 5000-3000 years back but sources indicate it is way older than than because earlier they were transferred orally from a guru to an apprentice)youtube channel like project shivoham should be a great place to start.
13:00 Giving reference of a very popular story of Lord Krishna. Even the god Indra once, didn't realize that Lord Krishna (understood as the ultimate reality or Brāhman) had manifested on Earth. And asked for forgiveness in humility after a certain event. Krishna later says that all of this existence and they themselves exist because of him.
He is talking about "Nasadiya Sukta" from Rigveda (10:129), also known as "Hymn of Creation". It is world's first scientific theory on the creation of the universe.
@@ArnavSharma-bj4ct As someone who reads World HIstory a lot, I find a lot of similarity between Sumerian and Indian Mythology. In-fact, We still call our Cities - "Uru".. Bengaluru, Mysoru... Similar to Sumerian 'Uru' and 'Uruk". Indian Temples are just Vertical Ziggurats, If you think about it. Perhaps Indian CIvilization was direct descendants of Sumerians who wandeered East and settled down in Indus valley. Sumerian Enu is Vishnu,Sumerian Enlil is Shiva.. So on. Too bad, no one does research work on this,
It starts with "Then" because it assumes you're an inquirer who wishes to learn more about the creation rather than spending time on sense gratification.
the One is basically eshwara (be it vishnu, shiva or brahman, hiranyagharba etc). when they say even before the gods it's general description is about the devas and not including the ones like shiva,vishnu,brahma(depnding the interpretation and the person) etc. and even here as he said about the parallels btw the creation and the proper astrophysical theories the particular sukta itself in his own translation, talks about the One waking up through heat(an explosion in a sense). but then again there are actually several creation stories, and as the cosmology itself has multiverse, higher dimensions, reccuring yet parallel timelines etc. hinduism is always about curiosity and the desire to get to the truth.
Vedas are old ..coz in ancient india we used to transfer knowledge orally through words..so after many generations these vedas were written down. vedas are older than 1500 BC timeline..
Rig veda r the text written by scholars rishis which translates yo scientific evaluators who question everything n give an make them understandable to the public ...n humans hav witnessed the avatars of god like ram,krishna and all so the avatars have to be witness after the creation so humans cannot know it ..n the nature the elements r shiv himself the atoms which is the base of Evey matter shiv ,shakti and brahma electron proton and neutron n the symbolic representation is the shivlingam..n the time is explained in huge numbers..first Vishnu creates brahma frm his navel n brahma creates the universe in the process of creation shiv is the nature which is responsible for both evolution n destruction....its so huge that I can't comprehend all at once ..rig veda is collective knowledge of thousands of Rishi's (scientist) and thats y there r few different approaches of creation boz this scientist questions even the gods n try to get answers frm their points of view in logical terms ,,thats y u will see many different approaches theory in Hinduism thats the beauty there is freedom of questioning even to god .. bhagwat Geeta is full of questions by arjun warrior to the god Krishna they don't belive when even gid came n guided boz u shouldn't believe u should know it by yourself... Their may be spelling mistake pardon me, English is not ky first language .
Please note : BEFORE reading the Bhagavat Gita, I highly recommend you learn about the Hindu Epic - "Mahabharata" first, or you won't understand the Context of it.. Think of Mahabharata as "Story of Jesus" and Bhagavat Gita as "Sermon on the Mount".
The Vedas (of which rig veda is cheif and most earliest/arcahic section) is the total compendium of orally transmitted knowledge regarding spirituality, cosmology, history, genealogies of cheifs/kings, societal order and structure, medicine, warfare, crafting, mantras/spells, rituals and beliefs of semi-nomadic pastoral tribes from central asian steppes (Sinthasta culture) that settled in India. It was basically like an encyclopedia for the vedic tribes it contained information for crafting tools, implements, preparation of drinks like soma/homa and plants required to obtain them which were all culturally relevant to the tribes.
English use of the word myth comes from the Greek word for stories. Myth literally means stories and mythology literally means study of stories. It's not a derogatory thing.
@@ReldrikGeo It is derogatory to those people whose very existence is questioned for centuries by Chritians and Muslims who have not left one stone unturned to call us Satanic, fake, myths and just stories. On contrary, Hindus have not done any of that.. Coz Hindus tend to be more rooted and tend to think that "may be there are many ways to reach the truth" It is the Abrahamoc relgions that assumed the authority of Truth and called us heathens, kufr, regressive, and billion other terms. For Indians, when someone calls something of theirs myth, it reminds us of how colonizers wanted everything of ours to be a lie, so that they can push alternative pliable philosophies to break us and cause havoc. So if you see an Indian reacting vehemently to the word myth, that is the reason. We all work here with the context.
@@ReldrikGeo Another meaning of myth is "a widely held but false belief or idea" Hindus have been facing this for 2000 years, some foreigners come to our lands and call our history myth, falsehoods, lies, evil, Satanic.. and eventually depopulated most Hindus lands. Coz if you are fake, non existent, or evil, there is no need for you to hold lands, authority, power, wisdom, or even women. Read up about Islamic conquest of India followed by the Christians. We are still facing these problems today, because they couldn't manage to delete us completely, like they managed in US, Canada, NZ and Australia. Been going on for millennia. So, if we take an umbridge to that word, it is justified. We decide what the definitions in our stories are. Ofcourse you are free to say whatever you want about us, Reo.

If you are going to read bhagvad gita it is not typical religions book it was taken place in the middle of war so if you read it you should now what lead to that war which is mahabharat if you don't know mahabharat gita will go like bouncer from your head
Actual truth is this Universe is Maaya of God the Universe Reside in it that's why there is No Starting and No end.. We are inside the Supreme I don't know why People are ignorant.. that's why we are unable too see Where God is.. God wil definitely Come if there is Imbalance in Whole Universe or a Bigger Part of Earth. 🌎
Nasadiya sukta, or the one creation Hymn he described is one of the agnostic creation Hymn. There are at least 30+ creation hymns, some theistic, some agnostic. Nasadiya sukta is an invitation to study and enquiry.. but none of it is a myth according to us. It is all history. Also, he seems to equate the One with YHWH and all the Hindu Gods are somehow subservient.. we reject what he said.
I suggest you the best channel with very fascinating stuff - project shivoham. Especially their video on "dhanurvedam" ancient INDIAN texts about archery 🎯 and war tactics.❤
Because of multiverse and also are time is like endless cycle like God did exist before the universe but he was not in our universe because it was not created that time but what most interesting is explore yourself Indian gods are most complicated but also easy to understand because they are all about your own understanding like lord Shiva he is beginning and also the end in same time you can say he is absence of everything and he is also everything as for finding truth this is the goal of life of everyone
All those complaining in the video of peter Boland are closed minded people he try his best to communicate in video I don't think in this video he say anything wrong but yes in his other video he is very away from what caste sytem is now and what it was in ancient timw
37:30.. it isbt the translation. It is transliteration and jumbled up In Sanskrit Source of something is called Moola. Moola could mean root and also from where progeny comes from. So some stupid translation has written semen all over it. When someone uses the word Yoni in Sanskrit, they mean ti denote Womb or the nurtuting energy of the universe. They are not talking about Vag!na. So all these translations are bogus, according to me.

Been going on for millennia. So, if we take an umbridge to that word, it is justified.
We decide what the definitions in our stories are. Ofcourse you are free to say whatever you want about us, Reo.
Many Greek words have Sanskrit Cognates. It is too much of a coincidence not to think that Myth came from Mithya. Anyways, both mean the same thing.
Man from earth is a good movie , ending left me with wanting more answers.
It is in my top 10 movies of all time
@@ReldrikGeo have you watched the interview (1998) starring hugo weaving ? Its a good watch too.
Upanishads are more of such metaphysics stuff
Yes that is very wrong translation 37:53
Yeah lol I figured
@@ReldrikGeo Honestly looks like one of those done by missionaries to make it all sound as dirty as possible for conversion sessions :p
If you are going to read bhagvad gita it is not typical religions book it was taken place in the middle of war so if you read it you should now what lead to that war which is mahabharat if you don't know mahabharat gita will go like bouncer from your head
I tried finding a translation in English that has good recommendations but I couldn't find one
@@ReldrikGeo original pagan is reading a english version
Hay do a video on universe creation according to Hinduism
Actual truth is this Universe is Maaya of God the Universe Reside in it that's why there is No Starting and No end.. We are inside the Supreme I don't know why People are ignorant.. that's why we are unable too see Where God is.. God wil definitely Come if there is Imbalance in Whole Universe or a Bigger Part of Earth. 🌎
Say it like this... bhag (bug) vat (w in where) ghee-taa
Nasadiya sukta, or the one creation Hymn he described is one of the agnostic creation Hymn. There are at least 30+ creation hymns, some theistic, some agnostic.
Nasadiya sukta is an invitation to study and enquiry.. but none of it is a myth according to us. It is all history.
Also, he seems to equate the One with YHWH and all the Hindu Gods are somehow subservient.. we reject what he said.
6:55 It's a great movie
it is on RUclips
Well that was fast ⏩⏩
Well I did say in the community post that I would react to the first video recommended right now lol
@@ReldrikGeoplease react the Sanskrit iceberg from india in pixel
I plan to
I suggest you the best channel with very fascinating stuff -
project shivoham.
Especially their video on "dhanurvedam" ancient INDIAN texts about archery 🎯 and war tactics.❤
the only person every hindus should listen to and learn from is koenraad elst
Yes I have a few of their videos on my to react to list
Ba-gah-vath Gee-tha
Because of multiverse and also are time is like endless cycle like God did exist before the universe but he was not in our universe because it was not created that time but what most interesting is explore yourself Indian gods are most complicated but also easy to understand because they are all about your own understanding like lord Shiva he is beginning and also the end in same time you can say he is absence of everything and he is also everything as for finding truth this is the goal of life of everyone
All those complaining in the video of peter Boland are closed minded people he try his best to communicate in video I don't think in this video he say anything wrong but yes in his other video he is very away from what caste sytem is now and what it was in ancient timw
So his bias is seeping in beautifully. He is a bit close minded.
39:25 Jesus is a historical figure if you not include the miracles he did.
A mythical figure to me is a historical figure that did extraordinary things
37:30.. it isbt the translation. It is transliteration and jumbled up
In Sanskrit Source of something is called Moola.
Moola could mean root and also from where progeny comes from. So some stupid translation has written semen all over it.
When someone uses the word Yoni in Sanskrit, they mean ti denote Womb or the nurtuting energy of the universe. They are not talking about Vag!na.
So all these translations are bogus, according to me.
maybe you two are relatives somehow !
Yes you're right . That is interesting. I believe him . Listening to him is addictive . Did he write any books ?
don't just brainwash urself further u people are already too cut off from Hinduism while believing in Hinduism
the title itself says "myth" and yet you are looking for books to read from this guy
Absolute bs. Hindu world view doesn't begin at 3000 years ago. It begins at least 15-20000 years ago
react to dwarka by abraham hancock (joe rogan podcast) and his india trip.
Which episode is this? I watch a lot of Joe Rogan
@@ReldrikGeo graham hancock did multiple but all of them are long (3 hours) and talks very little about india. BTW his wife is tamil.
Andrew schulz and his trip to india are the most informative i could find.

i wouldn't really recommend, his ideas don't even make sense with proper archeological ideas.
it's just bs without much scientific actual proof.
@@somanchipranav1964 uski podcast dekh, sab log usko yehi bolte hai, usne uska bhi jawab diya hai.
why do you react only to india a lot of cultures and countries to see ?does this gives you more views ?do you have actually have interest in exploring india or just you need money and views ihave seen your older geoguesser too?i mean no hate but be clear stop playing a character i feel you are not what you show to be?
For more clarity plz watch sadhguru
Wrong translation of the word Deva to God leads to the confusions that this video is showing.
Vedas r more than 50000 yrs old..
