He pays attention to detail and it’s clear he loves doing this
It was super dope of Vinamre to put the youtube channel link in the title itself.
1:02:00 the future of 'history of india
Was my one of my fav segments from the whole podcast.
Jay said "geneticists" would help alot in verifying the migrations and also telling new stories of migrations.
I jyst want to make an addition (and also want to know if what I'm saying is right), that:
With the decipherment of the millions of untranslated sanskrit (and probably even in many more languages) texts, we would inevitably stumble upon new avenues of our written history.
And that may disrupt the whole present of indian history.
Yes but are people actively translating these texts?? Im afraid they may be rotting away without people ever knowing
@@tvrulz46 super negative take
@@Rishabhgoyal14002 But its a serious question. Who and how many people are employed in sitting down and translating this all day?
@@tvrulz46 i understand that you are actually concerned about this, but you did come off as a toxic comment there
In my opinionm Jay Vardhan Singh is India's best historian past and present. Not only his knowledge is amazing but he does not twist the facts. Always so interesting listening to him.
I would urge him to go into DNA analysis of India
That point some people tell history as story but Mr Jay tells history with fact that what I like more about him
Nice podcast we need this man back to back
It was an interesting watch,keep making such amazing stuff 😊👍
Jay Vardhan is doing great service to Indian history
Brilliant video
Kudos to Jay Vardhan
Very knowledgeable 🕉️🇮🇳
22:00 The reason the ancient Indians invented Sanskrit and cultivated a scholars or Brahmins whose mandate was to preserve the knowledge through an oral tradition!
This is precisely why the Xian and Islamic invaders killed Brahmins and Pandits whenever they could. And they are still doing it - from Kashmir to Tamil Nadu(Dravidian parties).
East West North South, Sir Abhijit Chawda is the best historian. He was present in all historic events, and saw with his own eyes.
He is a cheap nautankibaaz
Zoroaster hindu tha😱
Nepal me caste system nhi Varna Jati follow krte hai😭 caste to British ne bnaya

He should've stuck to being an astrophysicist lmao
aur aur ye kaun bolega
" raja ram mohan roy 'UTILITARIAN' Christian tha..ab mere se iska matlab na poochhna"
While debunking Aryan dravidian theories, I really wanted to know his stance on the difference of language families, But he refused to even talk about that, and just said all these language families are Western propaganda 🤡🤡🤡, He doesn't even know that to divide language families, there are some proper criterias, Really hard to believe he is an scientist
@@gampa_10_31 I agree. My comment was encased in sarcasm, as he suddenly became a history torchbearer among the yuppies.
I want as much clarity as him in my life to say NO to everything I disagree with.
Bahut badiya video hai, bring this history enthusiast back please 😇😃🙏🏻
Shlokas were passed on orally for tones preservation.
But written texts were also there but were burnt when 30+ universities and 100+ temple schools library were burnt down
Interesting discussion.
With this podcast I think he is going to be a big youtuber
1:00:06 What about Satrubhanja and the Nagas of Vindyatabi that ruled from Keonjhar. In his Asanpat inscription he talked about a war where all the Naga tribes united to defeat the last Kushanas(and there royal family jumped to Ganga and commited suicide). If you read the story of Kaundinya(Kalinga merchant who became a Cambodian king) and the Funan , the Nagas were a tribe in ancient Cambodia.
Jai Vardhan is the best in analysing facts on the।basi of historical accounts and physical evidence s,so he is a historian in real sense,he is not a story teller, this is the basic। difference with others
I have said this, and I’ll say it again, this is the only podcast worth listening to!
Finally real historian on podcast.
Hi. where can i find your newletter?
I appreciate both of u.
Being a rtd.teacher,I could learn better perspective of understanding history.
As some one histriogr had said "History is an enquiry of past."
We can never say "......this is real history".
I appreciate u for trying to go out from any kind of narrow mindedness & prejudices.
If any scholars from any walks of life try to understand anything as a human being,such society will be good to live in.
mahabharat itself advises that the book jaya was the original text and everything else was added by later generations per their memory. thats why some things are repeated in mahabharat
Great podcast
Amazing podcast
Great podcast 👍👍
Well planned cities of IVC then nomadic life of vedic period ? It is hard to believe.
Love from Siliguri 🕉️🚩
Mahabharat was originally called jaya samhita ( 10 k shalokas) later become mahabhart ( 100k shalokas) so 900% of it was added later.
During the period of bhoj raja it had 25k shalokas
Correct I totally agree with you but 99% people still says all the 100k sholkas are authentic and they forget that there are many many versions of itihasa.
Deos was the ancient Greece author (before 2000 bce) who in his work mentioned about 1 lakh verses epic. Read Ramesh Chandru - mahabharat myth or history
No.. They were not added later,
There is a popular theory about three of the Mahābhārata. jaya being the original as narrated by ved vyas 8,800 shlokas, folloed by Bhārata, 24,000 shlokas and the one known as Mahābhārata, narrated by ugrashravā consisting o 100,000 shlokas. Hoever, till date there have been no separate manuscript of Bhārata Or jaya found to support the above theory.
Then again in the sixty-second chapter of the Ādi Parva, before reciting to narrate the story to Janamjayeya, vaishampayna explaining to the Importance of the Mahābhārata, says, ‘These 100,000 shlokas have been comosed by ved vyas..
@meteor541 the sixty-second chapter o the Ādi Parva, before starting to narrate the story to janamejaya, vaishampāyana, while exlaining to him the importance of the Mahābhārata, says, ‘These 100,000 shlokas have been composed by ved vyas , the son of Satyavati. This great story o the birth and lives o the rogeny of Bharata is called the Mahābhārata.’ In the same chapter Ādi Parva 62, vaishampāyana tells janamejaya
‘This itihāsa by the should be heard by all who desire or victory.’ It seems to suggest that jaya is another name or this history o Bhāratas-the Mahābhārata. The above the context-setting shlokas added by Ugrashravā and Vaishampāyana are in addition to the 100,000 shlokas of Vyāsa. It is very unlikely that additions, modifications and deletions have happened to the shlokas over years. But the theory of the evolution of Jaya into Bhārata intoMahābhārata seems unlikely based on what the text tells us.
No such evidence has been found so cope
There is no Mahabharath without Bhagvath geetha.
Which spotify geeta recording vinamre is talking about?
The average dostcast fan’s urge to call this podcast The vinamre kasana experience 😭..
Poora comment section itna gusse mein kyun hai yahaan?
Bhai ne Mahabharata/Ramayana ke baare mein ek shabd nhi bola, atleast bura to nhi bola.

What's the difference b/w this headline and the headline of third-rate news channels?
So what content vastly better hai
What is the name of Gita Podcast on Spotify
1:06:30 happened with me when i found him via vaad
whats the name of that rajasthan migration book?
Hi Jay Vardhan bhai, this was amazing to listen to, Vaad wali conversation se bhi zada achha laga, asaan shabdon mein (hindi) mein tha, aur ek birdseye view mil gaya reasoning ke sath.
But i have just one question
Here @53:50 you say that nothing was industrialised..
I am not against it, but from what I've heard is that we used to produce textile, steel, and spices at a somewhat industrial level then.
Morover, the unstichhed silk garments greeks wore, alot of them came from the then indian merchants.
(Probably)Thereby, telling the greeks that we are territory worth looting.
So, my question is that, can we say that what i know is true, or is it true for a later time period, and how conclusive is the evidence which suggests that.
I ask the conclusiveness of the evidence, because i want to know if a future discovery can change our view.
Thanks bhai itta read karna pada, pr bhai literally you are the best historian in india right now.
Please keep doing what you are doing 🙂.
Didn't know that Piyush Bnasal is also a historian! 😶😂
Jokes apart i heard him on Vaad earlier and i really found him insightful!

Historically accurate. Loved it. These present day pseudo historians tilting to the right, like chawda, are manipulative and not accurate. I loved Singhs reliance on facts.

How does one know that certain paragraphs are added later on and was not part of the core text?
Because the things that are in the text may not be suited for that time period. Example has been given in this discussion that there is the mention of Greeks and huns. Indians would have known about Greeks only after 500 BCE, same thing with Huns, they would have only have known about Huns after 500 CE.
Isn't there a possibility that we might be knowing about Greeks and Huns at the time when the original text was written?
Similarly, the mentioned about a paragraph from Mahabharat where Bhishma is explaining to Yudhishthir, they mention that it describes reality of Mauryan Empire so it must have been added at that time... What if this dialogue in Mahabharat is present from the beginning and if at all it describes reality of Mauryan Empire, the Mauryans must have taken inspiration from this text and set up their kingdom inspired by this dialogue.
Please correct if I am thinking in wrong direction
@@jashseta7927Do you think these books were available so freely in market that , ministers of maurya empire read it and then thought of doing exactly like that.
Or is it easier for a person to make fictional character discuss out the details of management, governance while he is living under empire and observing it.

thats all you need to know. Im not swallowing everything right leaning people say( im right ). Same goes for these people.
Isn’t the governance mechanism of mauryan empire covered in megasthenes book indica
he could have asked much more better questions
but then how is then the original author credited?.. if ved vyasa wrote mahabharat , how can someone add something to it? and i am sure ved vyasa wasnt alive to keep writing 10th or 11th editions of the mahabharat..... was it crowd sourced? was ved vyasa like a group of authors whose pen name was ved vyasa.. was it like a position.... that the successors could edit the religious text?
for example : i cant add 3 chapters to game of thrones ... and call it layered novel/text , its not my text to edit...
Plus i dont think Indian ancient history can be carbon dated to the exact age .....especially the satya yug , treta and dwapar because the indian knowledge system followed oral tradition.... transference was oral in nature by way of recitation, so even if our historical texts are carbon dated.... it would only give us a recent date because only later on it was brought to print.... so if you apply western standards to our history it wont fit , because its not one size fits all
Written texts majority Sara jla diya invaders na .
It would not be possible. You are just saying that just to preserve your belief.

I can see that vinamra (the host ) is not very much connected to our roots. He has a lots and lots of western influence. He doesn't even know about malechha and naga. This is what happens when you send your kids to schools like DPS. They snatch away the bharatiyata and hindutva out of your kid and make him a western show piece that you can show off to your relatives.
