This book is a translation of a collection of essays by scholars exploring the connections between the Vedas, ancient India's religious texts, and the cuneiform inscriptions of ancient Mesopotamia, known as the Chaldean literature. These inscriptions have revealed the existence of a sophisticated civilization in Mesopotamia, with its own system of religion, literature, and science. The essays in this volume compare and contrast the religious ideas, mythological figures, and ritual practices found in both the Vedas and the Chaldean literature, shedding light on the origins and development of religious thought in these two ancient civilizations. The author presents evidence of striking similarities between the two bodies of literature, suggesting a possible connection or shared origin. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of comparative religion, linguistics, and ancient history, offering insights into the cultural and intellectual exchange between two of the world's oldest civilizations.
