WHITE INDIA | 2005-07-19
I am sure we all remember the TV show Kung Fu starring David Carradine. It showed a half-Chinese guy (Carradine had his eyebrows fixed to look a bit Chinese) travelling through the Old West showing up the uncivilized Americans with his Kung Fu fighting methods.
Ah, the ancient, Wise, mysterious Orient!
Well, it turns out that Kung Fu was brought to China by an Indian about which there was a legend:
His blue eyes radiated a light that burned through a wall.
When we think of Buddhism, we think of Chinese and Japanese statues of Buddha. Actually, Buddha is described as having eyes as blue as the lotus. He was an Indian aristocrat back when they were white.
The same is true of what we call Arabic numerals. They are from white India.
Guess where the aquatic rice that makes up the Chinese paddy fields came from?
You guessed it.
Acupuncture was something that was absolutely attributed to Ancient Chinese Medicine.
Then they found the Ice Man, a man who froze to death about 3300 BC and was kept in a state of preservation in the Alps. He had tattoos on his body showing the acupuncture locations. It was an old Indo-European art before China began.
The Indo-Euopeans went out in all directions and their mummies have recently been found in China, blond and tall. They were wearing a type of weaving that historians had said was invented in the Middle East two thousand years after they died.
I have never seen any history of the inventions and ideas we credit to the Chinese and the Middle East that came from white India and from other ancient Indo-Europeans.
I seriously doubt I ever will.
