Books

Whatever I found amusing in the books I have read. So these are notes from those books.

The Discovery Of India:

-   *The Discovery Of India* is a book written by first
    prime-minister of India, Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru.

-   Interesting ideas of "ending" of **Sindhu Ghati civilization**
    die to Aryan immigration.

-   Aryan's bring religion with them which lead them to believe in
    Gods and therefore the supernatural. These gods are mentioned in
    **Vedas**

-   The people from **Paniya civilization** might extinct due to
    Aryans.

-   After some time **Vedas** become part of supersitition.

-   This leads to writing of **Vedanta** and exploration of
    different philiosophies which are cited in this book. Some of
    the main philosophies, cited in the book, are:
    [Ajivikism](ajivika), [Buddhism](buddhism),
    [Jainism](jainism)and[Charvaka](charvaka)
