<P><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">In India, Vedic literatures,
specifically the Upanisads and Vedanta-sutras, or the Sankhya philosophy are
widely studied by those seeking transcendental enlightenment. All these yogis
are faithfully engaged in different types of sacrifice and are seeking a higher
status of life. Krsna consciousness, however, is different from these because
it is the direct service of the Supreme Lord. Krsna consciousness cannot be
attained by any one of the above-mentioned types of sacrifice but can be attained
only by the mercy of the Lord and His bona fide devotees. Therefore, Krsna consciousness
is transcendental.</font></P>
<P><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The aryan invasion theory
has been one of the most controversial historical topics for well over a century.
However, it should be pointed out that it remains just that – a theory.
To date no hard evidence has proven the aryan invasion theory to be fact. In
this essay we will explain the roots of this hypothesis and how, due to recent
emergence of new evidence over the last couple of decades, the validity of the
Aryan Invasion theory has been seriously challenged.</font></P>
<P><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> It is indeed ironic that
the origin of this theory does not lie in Indian records, but in 19th Century
politics and German nationalism.</font></P>
