Gods, Sages and Kings presents a remarkable accumulation of evidence pointing to the existence of a common spiritual culture in the
ancient world from which present civilisation may be more of a decline than an advance. The book is based upon new interpretations of the ancient Vedic teachings of India; and brings out many insights from this unique source often neglected and misinterpreted in the West. In addition, it discusses recent archaeological discoveries in India whose implications are now only beginning to emerge.
Gods, Sages and Kings reveal the geography of the ancient world, geography of the ancient Vedic world, including the sacred Himalayan lands of the Soma. It shows the lineages of the Vedic
Kings and the realms that they ruled. It deciphers the ancient Vedic calendar and its sophisticated system of astronomy going back to before 4000 BC and uncovers the yogic practices of the ancient Vedic seers that appear to be behind all the religions of the world.
Gods, Sages and Kings suggests that all the peoples of the ancient world may be related to the Vedic culture including those of Sumeria, Egypt, China, and the Americas. It challenges the accepted views of the origins of civilisation in a profound way and thus causes the reader to re-examine what it means to be a human being.
This is a landmark book for understanding of India, a good piece of scholarship, and fills a major void in our understanding of ancient world history. It helps us gain a radical shift in our perception of ancient Indian History. It gives us a totally different picture of Vedic civilization than what we are traditionally taught in history books.
