The Aryan Invasion Theory: 

The Aryan Invasion Theory University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, Center for Indic Studies Press Release, July 3, 2006 Scientists Collide with Linguists to Assert Indigenous origin of Indian Civilization   Comprehensive population genetics data along with archeological and astronomical evidence presented at June 23-25, 2006 conference in Dartmouth, MA, overwhelmingly concluded that Indian civilization and its human population is indigenous. In fact, the original people and culture within the Indian Subcontinent may even be a likely pool for the genetic, linguistic, and cultural origin of the rest of the world, particularly Europe and Asia. ….. Interestingly, Witzel stated, for the first time to many in the audience, that he and his colleagues no longer subscribe to Aryan invasion theory.

The Jana Gana Mana Story: 

The Jana Gana Mana Story Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Anthem_of_India

Slide71: 

"He (Tagore) got up very early in the morning and wrote a very beautiful poem.... When he came down, he said to one of us, 'Here is a poem which I have written. It is addressed to God, but give it to Congress people. It will please them."

Slide72: 

"A certain high official in His Majesty's service, who was also my friend, had requested that I write a song of felicitation towards the Emperor. The request simply amazed me. It caused a great stir in my heart. In response to that great mental turmoil, I pronounced the victory in Jana Gana Mana of that Bhagya Vidhaata of India who has from age after age held steadfast the reins of India's chariot through rise and fall, through the straight path and the curved. That Lord of Destiny, that Reader of the Collective Mind of India, that Perennial Guide, could never be George V, George VI, or any other George. Even my official friend understood this about the song. After all, even if his admiration for the crown was excessive, he was not lacking in simple common sense."

Jana Gana Mana A Spiritual Prayer: 

Jana Gana Mana A Spiritual Prayer Glory to the ruler of the minds of all people, the controller of India’s destiny! From Punjab, Sindh, Gujarat, Maharashtra, to the Southern lands and Bengal, from the Vindhyas, Himachals, the dancing waters of the Yamuna and Ganga,
