Michel Danino
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Michel Danino (b. 1956 at Honfleur), is a French author who has lived for 25 years in Tamil Nadu, India.
He participated in the translation and publication of the works of Aurobindo and of The Mother. He engaged himself also for the preservation of tropical rainforest in the Nilgiri hills. In 2001, he convened the International Forum for India's Heritage (IFIH). He has criticized the Aryan invasion theory and its proponents, like Michael E. J. Witzel, and instead believes in an indigenous origin of the Vedas and Vedic civilization.
