Description

The Persian Empire extended into India for the period from about 600 B.C. During the first 1700 years of Persian rule, the amount of barbarity inflicted on the Indian population cannot be imagined. Brahmin priests served the Persians in court. To project their importance, and rule their rulers, they constructed the 'sacred' texts of India. I go through each of the main texts and explain the purpose they served in this time of tragedy. The Bhagavad Gita is a song celebrating the conquering of India. Krishna is a Persian name, with root in the Farsi word 'khijir', meaning handsome. Bhag comes from the Persian meaning to give.
