Founding Kings & Rsis of
the Vedic Civilization
14,500 BCE – 12,050 BCE
Surya, Chandra, & Agni Vamsa
As Paramaśiva Himself has revealed, from Him originated the “playful abodes” of Sun, Moon,and Fire or Sūrya, Chandra, and Vahni (Agni).In the Hindu texts, these abodes are referred as “kingdoms,” “dynasties,” or “lineages” based on the context of the text, whether they are purānical, political, social, or spiritual. Essentially, these three are origins of human beings, specifically, the Sūrya Vaṁśa, Chandra Vaṁśa, and Agni Vaṁśa. From each of these three, kingdoms emerged that would guide the course of history, as the Hindu Civilization flourished. It is accepted unanimously that the origin of all three is one source. That is Paramaśiva.
Vedic Rsis
The founding ṛṣis of Vedic civilization are historic scientists who pioneered research and development of the inner sciences. All the ṛṣis are descendants of Brahma, who is the source for the name “Brāhmaṇa.” The Saptaṛṣis, or the renowned 7 ṛṣis, are the most prolific ṛṣis of history who listened to the secrets of enlightenment from Paramaśiva Himself as He revealed it to Devi Paraśakti. Through their lives, they have mastered the inner sciences and made it available to humanity through the Hindu scriptures, which are today perhaps the most untapped resource to solve the world’s problems.
Manasaputras of Brahma 14,500 BCE
In the Ṛg Veda, there are more than 160 ṛṣis named as the authors but the earliest ṛṣis are the mānasaputras of Brahma, the sons of Brahma. They are Bhrigu, Aṅgirasa, Atri, Marīchi, Vasiṣṭha, Pulastya and Pulaha. Other sons of Brahma are also named who compiled other scriptures like Sanaka ṛṣi. Swayambhava Manu was also a son of Brahma who became a Kśatriya, and ruled the kingdom.
The following timeline summarizes the founding kings and ṛṣis of the Vedic civilization, the ecosystems and the people who upheld the science of enlightenment for thousands of years.
Kingdom of Brahmāvarta 14,500 BCE
Having received the Vedāgamas from Paramaśiva, Brahma used it to found the Kingdom of Brahmāvarta in around 14,500 BCE. In this kingdom, Swayambhava Manu became king and his sons were the descendants of the Manu dynasty. The kingdom flourished in the region between the Sarasvati and Driṣadvati Rivers. The date of this kingdom was calculated from when Summer Solstice occurs in Dhaniṣṭhā Nakshatra, which is around 15,000 BCE to 14,500 BCE. Following this, the entire “Vedic” history commenced.
It has been mapped with the available evidence that historians have been able to gather and logically conceive, however only The Avatār can give a clear picture of our history and help us truly understand the grand narrative of Hindu history.
