[edit] sorry
[1] dab 13:47, 31 Oct 2004 (UTC) Could you please explain? "The theosophs claimed the Aryans to be God's chosen race to free the world." This is simply wrong. No Theosophist ever claimed that. For the Theosphists Aryans are the fifth root race, out of seven root races. --Isdu 13:57, 31 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Hi Isdu,
I dont know whether the astronomic data mentioned in the Rigveda or for that matter any non-scientific literature could be taken as firm evidence. Not that they might not be accurate, but that they were not intended to be a scientific record at the first place. Which again I shoul say is not to doubt its accuracy. Literary sources could be used as information to corroborate ideas not as starting point themselves. when it comes to historical anthropology as a starting point one would have to fall back on linguistic cognates and syntactic structures. Given that note you might rephrase and add the two sentences. Water Fish 10:38, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
